Colon Cleansing on the HCG diet



Some believe it is important to undergo a colon cleanse regiment before starting the HCG Protocol because there are toxins and other environmental contaminates, hormones, and other impurities in our food supply and diet that didn’t exist, and therefore were not a factor, when Dr. Simeons was administering the HCG Diet to his patients decades ago.

Because of the restricted diet it is common to have a BM only once every two to three days. If you stop loosing weight AND don't have a BM every three days, it's probably time to get the bowels moving again.

What is colon cleansing and how does colon cleansing help us to lose weight?
Colon cleansing is a simple solution to many health problems while also providing numerous benefits. For dieters, the most desirable of these benefits includes the significant weight loss that results after even one colon cleansing treatment. In fact, it is not uncommon for colon cleansing to flush ten to thirty pounds of matter, resulting in instant weight reduction. Not only does this result in a healthier colon, but rapid weight loss and a healthier, detoxed system.

Ailments treated by colon cleansing include:
* constipation
* fatigue and insomnia
* parasite infection
* excess weight
* bad breath
* irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
* a protruding belly
* frequent colds
* hemorrhoids
* yeast infections
A frequent bowel problem for most people, and particularly dieters, includes constipation. Most often, constipation is attributed to a low fiber diet and lack of sufficient water, which cause fecal matter to become compressed and condensed. Not only is this uncomfortable, but it results in slower weight loss or even a complete stall simply because the system is "backed up" rather than continuously moving forward.

Over time, a constipated system results in the slow release of toxic wastes, causing strain on the intestinal system- most often signs of this include hemorrhoids, varicose veins, hernia and similar problems. In fact, the longer the waste is permitted to stay in the body, the more the proteins become rancid and the carbohydrates ferment. This ultimately manifests in physical ailment and disease and has been attributed to everything from obesity to cancer.

With even one bowel movement per day, there is still a minimum of three meals worth of waste matter in your system at all times, and a constipated body can hold several days, months or even years of fecal matter. Furthermore, your system can become toxic from the poisonous gases that are caused by foods you don't tolerate. This is known as "self polluting" in which the poisonous gases can enter your bloodstream and irritate your joints and organs. When your body is in this state, it cannot efficiently operate, let alone lose weight and become healthy.

Most often, people rely on bran and raw vegetables to stay regular. However, these are so rich in fibrous bulk they cannot get through the small spaces remaining for passage of waste in a constipated colon. Instead the waste matter backs up, begins to ferment, and contribute further to poor digestive health.

For those that want lose weight, maintain a healthy body and balance between body spirit and mind, colon cleansing is a must try. Not only does colon cleansing result in instant weight loss, provide fast relief from numerous ailments, and act as a preventative agent for health issues, but for those seeking to lose weight and maintain optimum health and mentality will find colon cleansing to be an essential addition to their efforts in healthy living.

It is not recommended to start more than 1 colon cleanse at the same time. They can be done in sequence, but not simultaneously. Please check with your practitioner before starting any cleansing program, especially if you are on prescription medications.

These specific cleanses and supplements are designed to work specifically with the HCG protocol to improve your results.

Constipation ideas... and increase your vitamin intake also

Often, pregnancy constipation can be managed with lifestyle changes. Consider these steps:

Drink plenty of fluids. Aim for eight 8-ounce (237-milliliter) glasses of water a day. Fruit juice — especially prune juice — also can help.

Include physical activity in your daily routine. Daily walks and other aerobic activities can help prevent and treat pregnancy constipation.

Include more fiber in your diet. Choose high-fiber foods, such as fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains. With your health care provider's OK, try fiber supplements, such as Metamucil.

Many constipation remedies also have extra vitamins and minerals

Magnesium Oxide (tablets, gelcaps, or powder)

One should strive for a dosage which will stimulate two to three bowel motions per day. This dosage may be as much as two heaped teaspoons a day or as little as one half teaspoon daily. Remember to listen to your body.
The magnesium oxide should come in white powder form and is generally mixed in half a glass of water. Substances which are mildly acidic, such as lemon juice or apple cider can be added or follow the ingestion of magnesium oxide. These mildly acidic substances enhance the digestion of the magnesium oxide.
Magnesium oxide should not be taken with meals. That is, at least an hour before or after eating. Since magnesium oxide liquefies toxic matter, it can be expected that the bowel motions will be loose. This is not diarrhea but the result of the hydrating effect of magnesium oxide. After the initial intensive or gradual cleansing period, some people will find it beneficial to use magnesium oxide on a regular basis. A general principle is to take enough so as to stimulate regularity. Because magnesium oxide produces water and oxygen it is safe to use on a regular basis.
