Bowel Cleanse


Description

The Peristaltic Muscle


A healthy colon is essential for total health. And yet it's one of the organs most overlooked by allopathic medicine. When was the last time your doctor asked you about your bowel movements? Probably never, unless you've gone to him specifically for constipation or diarrhea. Yet when you ask any naturopathic doctor, that's the FIRST thing he'll ask. The colon is the last stage of digestion before waste is eliminated. Its primary function is to absorb water and remaining nutrients. The main muscle that drives the colon is the peristaltic muscle. It works by pushing waste along in a squeezing motion. Bowel Cleanse is specially formulated to feed the peristaltic muscle.
Fecal Buildup

Over time, fecal matter builds up in the colon. Poor diets (consisting primarily of red meat, dairy, and refined carbohydrates) cause the body to create mucus. Do you ever notice the phlegm in your throat after a bowl of ice cream? This is happening all throughout your body. The body does the best it can to eliminate the waste, but this mucus ultimately ends up in the colon and sticks. It is estimated that the average adult has between 5 and 10 pounds of dried fecal matter stuck inside their colons. Autopsies have revealed colons that weigh as much as 40 pounds! This waste impairs the peristaltic muscle by lining the walls of the colon. Waste is not removed, and nutrition is not absorbed.
NOT a Laxative

Bowel Cleanse is not a laxative. It is an herbal nutritional supplement that specifically feeds the peristaltic muscle. The intent of a laxative is to achieve a bowel movement by whatever means possible. This is usually accomplished by softening and loosening the stool so that a poorly performing peristaltic muscle can push out the waste. While this temporary fix might make you feel better, it's not addressing the real core problem: a weak peristaltic muscle. Fiber laxatives can be helpful also, but you get the most benefit out of them with a strong peristaltic muscle. Bowel Cleanse is designed to cleanse, stimulate, and repair the peristaltic muscle so that it can funtion on its own, without the aid of laxatives.
Weight Loss

The first obvious benefit to cleansing your colon is weight loss. As the peristaltic muscle starts working more effectively, the body gets rid of that extra 5-10 pounds that is just sitting there. This weight most often manifests itself as a "pooch" in women, and as a gut in men (this is where your colon is located). Most people report a flatter stomach after using Bowel Cleanse. Our users report an average weight loss of 5 pounds in 1 week.
Energy and Vitality

Another benefit is energy! Most people notice within a few days that their bowel movements are much bigger, and better quality. Their bowels feel "empty" and they feel lighter, and less tired. When your colon is clean, your body can absorb more nutrition, you can actually eat less and feel more satisfied. Many times people overeat because the body is screaming for nutrition, which can't be absorbed. As the "trash gets taken out" the rest of the body is detoxified.

Rheumatism

Definition:

Afflictions of muscle tendon, joint, bone or nerve, resulting in discomfort and disability from stiffness of the joints or muscles, pain on motion, etc. In this category are often included rheumatoid arthritis, degenerative joint diseases, spondylitis, bursitis, fibrositis, myositis, neuritis, lumbago, sciatica, and gout.
Causes:

Poor elimination causes rheumatism due to toxic matter becoming stagnated in various parts of the body. Thomas Deschauer explains it thus: "Urea should be daily expelled from our body, an ounce every day. Urea, as you might know, is completely changed waste matter, and as such easily expelled. Now if the process of turning the dead tissues into urea is incomplete--it forms uric acid. Certain foods and drinks cause the urea to be left unfinished. or if the urea is hindered or stopped to be expelled, it also returns into the system and forms uric acid. This can be done by stopping perspiration, by cooling off quickly, by neglect of proper bathing, changing of underclothing, inhaling urea at night while sleeping in ill-ventilated room, etc. Avoid all these things if you want to get well. Some persons have what is known as the uric acid habit, that is, the waste matter does not break down completely. This tendency is due to an extremely abnormal and diseased condition of the blood."

Harpagophytum Procumbens (Devil's Claw)

Glucosamine sulphate: One of the best bio-available forms of glucosamine supplements and it has been shown that 90 - 98% is readily absorbed in the intestines. Glucosamine has been approved for the treatment of arthritis and other joint and muscular conditions in more than 70 countries throughout the world. Studies have demonstrated its ability to decrease pain and inflammation, increase range of motion and to help repair aging and damaged joints in the hands, knees, hips and spine.

Boswellia serata:

Extracts of the gum of this tree found in India have been used for thousands of years to relieve pain and inflammation. Scientific studies have demonstrated that boswellia has the ability to inhibit pro-inflammatory mediators in the body and to reduce pain and inflammation without irritating or ulcerating the stomach lining. Boswellia has also been shown to be beneficial in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Natural Treatment of inflammatory joint and muscle conditions

Clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of Devil's Claw in treating joint conditions like osteo-arthritis, fibrositis, rheumatism and small joint disease, (Lecompte & Costa, 1992). It has also been scientifically proven to assist in the treatment of lower backache (Chrubasik, 1996). In a study by Brady et al, (1981), serum cholestol and uric acid levels were shown to be reduced after treatment with Devil's Claw.
Scientific studies have also indicated that it is effective in stimulating the lymphatic system to increase resistance against disease.
Glucosamine is naturally manufactured in the body and scientists known that this simple substance is found in relatively high concentrations in the joints and connective tissues, where its function is to repair cartilage and maintain joint mobility.
Boswellia has been used for thousands of years as a natural anti-inflammatory. Modern science has verified that boswellic acids contained within the herb can block the formation of leukotrienes, the immune cells responsible for inflammation, while also promoting the formation of free radicals. With regular use, blood supply to the joints is also maintained, keeping soft tissue nourished and viable.

Rheumatism Treatment

There are a lot of problems that can be hard to deal with. One such problem is rheumatism. This is a word that comes from the Greek word 'rheuma', which means swelling. As you can guess by now, rheumatism is a swelling of the muscles, joints, tendons, or ligaments in your body. This is something that can be very painful, and that is why people are always looking for rheumatism cures. The good news is that there are rheumatism and arthritis treatment options, as well as rheumatism home remedies that you can try.

Prevalence

Rheumatism is a problem that affects more people than what you would think. Just like other joint pain, this is something that affects people more as they get older. Men and women get this illness about the same, and all the races have an equal chance of getting it. No matter what you choose to do, rheumatism is something that you have to get taken care of. This is not something that you can just keep living with, because it causes a lot of problems.

Symptoms

Rheumatism is pretty easy to spot because of the pain that it causes. For example, you are likely to have soreness and pain in your joints. This can even be soreness in your muscles as well. Of course, you should note that it is different from just a sore muscle. When you have rheumatism, then just the weight of clothing can cause a lot of pain on your muscles.

Diagnosis

The main cause of rheumatism is toxic waste in your blood. Thus, if you think that you have rheumatism, your doctor may want to do some blood work on you. Eating too much bread, sugar, and meat can cause too many toxic waste products in your blood stream. Of course, you should note that this is not always a problem. If you think that you have rheumatism, then you should go visit your doctor right away. This way he can work with you on treating your rheumatism.

Treatment

Some of the best rheumatism cures involve using water enema. This is where they take warm water and shoot it into your bowels. This is a great way to clean out all of the toxic stuff that has built up in your body. After that, you may want to try to get some hot packs to place them on the affected areas. This can help to bring down the pain. Of course, just sitting in a warm bath helps a lot. If you are going to use a warm bath as a rheumatism treatment, then you might as well put epsom salts in the bath as well. You should try to sit in a bath of epsom salts about twice a week for three months. It will also help you if you can get some fresh air and do some very light outdoor exercises. Try to go for walks and things like that. This can help to loosen up your joints and so on. Most people think that you should put cold on swollen joints. In the case of rheumatism, you need to avoid damp and cold compresses at all costs.

Home Remedies

If you are still having problems with your rheumatism, then you should note that there are a few rheumatism home remedies out there that can help you. One good thing that you should try is to drink potato juice. Take about two teaspoons of potato juice before each meal. You can get juice from a potato by smashing it raw. Also, do not throw the skin of the potato away either. Eating the skin is a great way to help cure your rheumatism. This is because it is very rich in minerals and salt. If you have any bitter gourd, then you should use that too. Try to extract juice from the vegetable and drink it. You should drink it mixed with just a teaspoon of honey for taste. People have even found that celery is a good cure for rheumatism. Simply drink the fluid that gets extracted out from the raw vegetable. This is also a great way to clean out your stomach and your kidneys. Also, if you can stand the taste, you should drink the juice from two to three lemons a day. This will always bring good results, as far as taking care of rheumatism. Other home remedies for rheumatism involve using walnuts. All you have to do is eat about half a dozen of them a day to help treat rheumatism.

Conclusion

As you can clearly see, rheumatism is something that can be taken care of from home. You just have to know what to eat to get your rheumatism to go away quicker. Try to follow the rheumatism home remedies that we talked about. This can help you get rid of it. Of course, if you do not have rheumatism, then following these tips can help you from getting it in the first place.

Natural Treatment of Erysipelas

It is a disease characterized by a diffused inflammation of the skin. The subcutaneous cellular tissues may also become involved and there may be high fever. In a mild form there is only a redness of the skin which feels thickened on which small vesicles may appear.

Erysipelas of the face begins' with symptoms of general discomfort. The patient feels languid, drowsy and there is a feeling of chilliness which later develops into fever which may go upto 105°F. Inflammation may start with the tip of the nose; if it is not controlled in time, it may spread to the glottis leading to fatal results. If it attacks the membranes of the brain, the result is almost always fatal.

When the disease is in a severe form, vesicles appear on the reddened, inflamed skin and if care is not taken, they may burst and turn into sores. Among infants the causative factor is a sore in the navel and the infection is likely to spread to the mother.

Natural Home Remedies for Erysipelas:



The sufferer should be segregated to stop the infection from spreading to others. Twenty grams of extract of Rasaut should be steeped in one litre of water overnight and the supernatant water given to the child to drink every time he feels thirsty. In the case of a suckling infant, the mother should also drink the same water. For local application on the vesicles, a paste of Rasaut and white Sandalwood ground in juice of green Coriander is recommended. If green Coriander is not available water may be used in its place. The leaves of the Cypress tree (Saroo) should be ground in water to form paste to help relieve the condition.

The dietary regimen is the same as in the case of other fevers. The child must be protected against exposure; no cold bath should be given to him. Till the vesicles disappear, no bath should be given to the child: sponging his body should suffice.

Remedy for Palindromic Rheumatism

Pallindromic rheumatism is an inflammatory arthritis that is characterized by rapid and severe attacks of pain and swelling of joints and surrounding tissues. These attacks are sudden and last for hours or even days before they subside spontaneously. The episodes of attacks increase with time though there is no damage done to the joints by this condition. Pallindromic rheumatism mostly affects knees, fingers and large joints. Men and women are both at risk of suffering from pallindromic rheumatism. In some cases, pallindromic rheumatism leads to rheumatoid arthritis. The problem with pallindromic rheumatism is that it cannot be diagnosed by a single test since its symptoms are similar to many other kinds of arthritis. So the diagnosis and treatment can take time. Also, because of the unpredictable nature of the attacks, treatment becomes difficult. There is no specific cause of pallindromic rheumatism. In most cases, the doctor first needs to cure other types of arthritis before treating pallindromic rheumatism.
Unfortunately, there isn’t a specific cure for palindromic rheumatism. But there are some home remedies that bring relief from rheumatism. Taking about two teaspoons of raw potato juice before meals is one of the most effective ways of treating rheumatism. You can also mix two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar and honey along with warm water and take it daily. Bitter gourd juice is also a good medicine for dealing with rheumatism. For the first three months of the onset of rheumatism, have plain bitter gourd everyday. Then you can mix honey in it and take it as a daily tonic. Aromatherapy is also effective in alleviating the pain and reducing inflammation. Mix a few drops of rosemary oil in a bathtub and soak in it for about 20 minutes. Another effective tonic is mixing fresh carrot juice and lemon juice in equal quantity and taking a tablespoon of it everyday. Massaging your joints with almond oil strengthens bones and also brings relief from pain.
One can prevent any kind of rheumatism and other problems of bones, tissues and muscles by maintaining a balance of calcium, vitamins and phosphorous in the body. It is beneficial to include enough green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits (especially banana and prunes) and juices, milk and milk products in your daily diet. Sufficient Vitamin D through sunlight and a daily regime of exercise for 30 minutes is also helpful. You can take up activities like jogging, walking, swimming, rowing, and cycling.

Diet, Nutrition for Rheumatism Treatment | Foods to Prevent Rheumatism

Rheumatism Diet:

There are a lot of advantages if you will fight against rheumatism not only with home remedies and medical treatment but also with preventive measures. One of this is you will be aware on which areas to work on in your life like your diet.

You need to know that taking in good nutrition will work wonders in treating the illness as well as making sure that it does not come back. Start this off with a short fast only water and orange juice for three to four days.

After this fasting regimen, breakfasts of grapefruit or orange could be done followed by a lunch of raw salad made from seasonal veggies with figs, raisins, dates or prunes. Dinner could contain a steamed vegetable or two. You can do this for fourteen days followed by the gradual adoption of a well-balanced diet made up of grains, vegetables, nuts, seeds and fruits. 

People suffering from chronic rheumatism could go on an all-fruit diet for four to five days. After this, the gradual transition to a well-balanced nutrition could be done through taking in great amounts of buttermilk, fresh vegetables, and ripe fruits.

All types of fish and meat should be avoided at all cost. You should also stay away from refined cereals, sugar, and white bread as well as coffee and tea. Highly seasoned and rich foods that are hard to digest are no-no’s as well.

Preventing Rheumatism Disorder | How to Prevent Rheumatism

Rheumatism Prevention Measures:


Although using home remedies is a great way to go, there is such a belief that says that an ounce of measure is better than a pound of cure. So here are a number of preventive measures that you can apply in your life:

The first and the most essential preventive measure that you can do is avoiding placing excessive impact or pressure on areas being affected with rheumatism. The elbows are also areas to be kept free of constant pressure as well.
It is also advisable to take short yet periodic breaks when you are doing some manual labor, like at your yard. This gives your muscles respite after working right along with you.
Avoid twisting, gripping, or clenching your hands repeatedly.
Drinking teas that are known to treat rheumatism like alfalfa tea is already great for preventing the contraction of rheumatism. If they are known to be good for treatment, they could be great for prevention as well.

So if there are people in your family who are asking you where you are going with these measures, tell them that you are just battling rheumatism before its starts. Tell them that it is never too late or too early to be cautious.
