I’m sure you’ve seen the ads, “lose 20 pounds in 10 days with a colon cleanse.” But what does doing a colon cleanse have to do with such drastic weight loss?
The truth of the matter is that many colon cleanse advertisements are nothing more than exaggerations and a misrepresentation of facts at the expense of unsuspecting weight loss aspirants.
Don’t get me wrong I’m a big proponent of full body and colon cleanses, I mean common sense will tell anyone that if you clean anything and everything then it must stand to reason that we should cleanse our colon every once in a while when. But what about weight loss?
Well, a colon cleanse will not magically remove fat from your system, as some would have you believe. A colon cleanse works in two important ways to help you lose weight.
The first thing is that it will actually remove the buildup of fecal matter and the hardened, compacted fecal matter will mix with the mucus. This highly toxic mixture will eventually stick to the walls of your lower intestine and could cause your stomach to swell, giving the appearance of fat.
This buildup of waste can also prevent valuable nutrients from moving from the colon to the body’s cells, so this lack of nutrition will leave you feeling constantly hungry as your body tries to get more food and forces you to overeat. So eliminating waste will make you lose “weight” but most of it won’t be fat. However, the good thing is that you will be able to fit your clothes better and you will see a reduction in the stomach line and waist.
Once the weight has been removed from your system, you will begin to absorb more nutrients and you will not feel hungry all the time, so you will eat less. By eating less, you will lose even more weight.
The second way that you can lose weight through a colon cleanse is due to the fact that your body will be much better at removing undigested food from your system. If undigested food is blocked or prevented from passing through your colon, then your body will more than lightly convert it to fa and store it in the body. Getting rid of these things on a more “regular” basis will prevent this.
You’ll also feel more energized as your metabolism increases with a clean system. This will help your body burn fat much more efficiently.
So the bottom line is that a colon cleanse is a must if you want to lose belly fat and increase your overall weight loss much faster and easier.
