Detoxification and triphala Flaxseed Probiotics
Warning signs
Triphala
Tri stands for three and phala stands for fruits. It is a combination of three important fruits from India: amla, bibitaki and haritaki. Haritaki is known as "king of medicines" in Tibet. Triphala has been traditionally used for constipation, used as a laxative that may aid in easy elimination without abdominal cramps and has also been traditionally used to improve digestion.
Flaxseed
Flaxseed oil contains linoleic acid, an important fatty acid. In addition, it contains high amounts of alpha linolenic acid (ALA), another essential fatty acid. One of the traditional uses for flaxseed is in constipation.
Probiotic
Probiotic means, for life. Antibiotics as efficient as they are in fighting bacteria also sometimes end
up depleting the good bacteria in the intestinal tract with overusage. One does not have to necessarily be on a course of antibiotics frequently to observe the above effects, these effects can also occur to a lesser extent if you regularly eat meat, because cows,chickens,pigs etc are often given antibiotics which you may also end up consuming when you buy meat products. In light of above it becomes necessary to take probiotics, they help preserve the good bacteria.
As mentioned above all bacteria are not harmful, without healthy bacteria, digestion is impaired which may result in toxin accumulation and the immune system being weakened which may further result in infections caused by opportunistic organisms and cause ill health. Certain undigestible sugars such as fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) found naturally in artichoke, asparagus, onion and banana encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria. Lactobacillus Acidophilus a probiotic often added to yogurt, helps restore the good bacteria and alleviate constipation and indigestion and is especially useful in fungal infections caused by Candida.
Warning Signs
Do you know the warning signs that indicate a cleansing is due? Skin changes will occur such as eczema and acne,there will be weight gain, sluggishness, odd pain in the joints, sinus drainage, body odor and bad breath.(please consult your physician first before self diagnosing) The body will absorb anything that is available to it including toxins and pollutants and therefore cleansing is necessary because there are more pollutants and toxins entering the body than leaving it.
Colon cleansing is one of the most important parts of detoxification because it helps to remove the greatest amount of toxins from the body. If left untreated, the solid waste which accumulates in the colon forms a toxic buildup which can eventually lead to the most common of cancers - colon cancer. Exercise also increases the effectiveness of cleansing and boosts overall health. It stimulates circulation, respiration, sweating and elimination all of which are routes of toxin and pollutant expulsion.
It is better to emphasize a positive change to a healthier diet then to focus on restrictions. As Earth becomes more and more polluted so do our bodies. Just like your home and car, your body also needs regular upkeep and cleansing. Click on the above product links to access the products.
