Home Made Colon Cleansing Diet Recipes

As the saying goes, we are what we eat.   The food we put in our bodies, the raw material we give it to work with, tremendously influences all aspects of our health, including the health of out GI tract.  Here I want to give you some homemade colon cleansing diet recipes so you can experience the benefits of a colon cleanse as simply as possible.

Considering the environment we live in, we all should detoxify regularly.   Many of the troublesome  health issues so many experience today, such as weight gain, fatigue, sluggishness, joint pain, and so on, that are so difficult to find a cause of can be related to diet issues. 

Diet Is Still Important In
Colon Cleansing

As good as colon cleansing routines are, they aren’t the whole answer.  It is important to eat a decent diet most of the time.  You basically know what this is: don’t eat junk.  Skipped the fried and processed foods and emphasize vegetables and fruits.   Be sure to emphasize fiber and drink plenty of clean water.

 A Few Colon Cleansing Diet
Recipe Guidelines

Since everyone is a little different, the best colon cleanse for everyone is a little different.  Alos you may need a different type of cleanse depending on just what your health is like at a given time.  For example, you might want to do a colon cleanse after the holidays when you may have eaten more refined foods and have more alcoholic drinks than you normally do.  You’d probably want to do a different cleanse as preparation for a meditation retreat or as a routine health practice.  

Here are some general guidelines.  You should avoid processed food and use organic ingredients when you can.   Stay well hydrated and drink at least 8 glasses of fluid a day, especially on the cleanses that include psylium or other forms of fiber.

You may want to try several homemade colon cleanse recipies to see how you respond to each.  Here are some to get you started.

Vegetable Soup Colon Cleanse

Vegetables are nutritional gold mines.  In addition they are high in fiber.  This makes them good candidates for a colon cleanse recipe as well as part of our standard diet. 

Different vegetables have different nutritional profiles, so a mixture is a great way to go.

Here are some ingredients to consider in a vegetable soup:
Two tomatoes, a small cucumber, one jalapeno, ½ onion, 1 clove garlic, a carrot, a little parsley, and roughly two cups of pure water or vegetable stock.
.
Raw food advocates recommend just putting the mix in a juicer or blender, but you can cook it if you prefer. 

Another variation is to use low of not salt organic tomato juice instead of the stock, chop all the other vegetables finely and have it cold as a sort of gazpacho.  That actually is the way I prefer it.  And I’ll also admit to using canned organic tomatoes sometimes.

The vegetable soup cleanse can be a very useful and nutritious way to let your system rest while providing your body with a wide range of nutients.
