			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://thecleansingstory.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/constipation-cure-241x300.jpg" alt="constipation-cure" title="constipation-cure" width="241" height="300" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-180" />Natural cures for constipation require a combination of lifestyle and dietary changes. Unlike medicinal and other treatment methods, natural cures are simple and easy to practice, and also have less negative side effects. Often these natural cures enable one to completely eliminate infrequent and mild constipation. </p>
<p>However, constipation is not an ailment on its own. It is the symptom of the food and water not properly passing through the colon. The colon absorbs too much water, making the stool to be dry. This causes the muscles have difficulty in compacting and getting rid of the feces. </p>
<p>Firstly, a diet with enough fiber helps the body form soft, bulky stool. High-fiber foods include beans, whole grains and bran cereals, fresh fruits, and vegetables such as asparagus, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and carrots. For people prone to constipation, limiting foods that have little or no fiber, such as ice cream, cheese, meat, and processed foods, is also important. </p>
<p><span id="more-177"></span></p>
<p><strong>Licorice</strong><br />
Licorice is a safe <a href="http://thecleansingstory.com/laxative-danger/">laxative</a> that can also be used in conjunction with other herbal laxatives to increase their effectiveness. Licorice acts by increasing intestinal responsiveness and relieving the spasms that result in cramping. </p>
<p><strong>Guava</strong> (but is must have the seeds) because of their roughness is a great way of getting relief from constipation. Also eating bran cereal not just for adults but for children as well is another way of safeguarding against constipation. A more natural way for the elderly to deal with constipation is to drink milk that has either extra sugar or honey in it. </p>
<p><strong>Mangoes and Bananas </strong><br />
Mangoes and bananas are also high in fiber. Eat a mango after dinner and a banana or two during the day. Steer well clear of unripe fruits though, as they can cause constipation. </p>
<p><strong>Honey and Vinegar</strong><br />
Vinegar and honey are natural laxatives for many people. Mix a teaspoon of honey and apple cider vinegar with warm water each night after dinner. </p>
<p><strong>Dieting</strong><br />
The easiest natural <a href="http://thecleansingstory.com/product-review-oxy-powder/">constipation remedies</a> start with your diet. Make sure you include plenty of fiber in your diet. Choose wholegrain bread, and wholewheat pasta, and brown rice. Eat lots of fresh fruit and veg, and avoid pre-packaged cakes, pastries, biscuits etc. Some foods are gentle natural aids to get things started. Try foods like figs, prunes, stewed rhubarb and apricot. </p>
<p><strong>Fruits</strong><br />
Apples are one of best fruits to eat because they provide alkaline mineral for you body. What these minerals do is neutralize acids that are created during illness, anxiety, anger, exercising, breathing pollution, and improper eating. Body acid is a major reason we get deadly diseases as we age and minerals help to keep acids neutralized. </p>
<p><strong>Aloe</strong><br />
Another natural remedy for constipation is Aloe. This herb that works so good on your outsides can also help your insides too! Aloe and its cousins buckthorn, frangula and senna have natural laxative chemicals and can be very powerful constipation cures It is recommended you take any of these herbs with caution and not for extended periods of time. </p>
<p><strong>Probiotics</strong><br />
Probiotics and Digestive Enzymes - take these nutrients during meals and also between meals to get probiotics into the colon.</p>
<p><strong>Flaxseed</strong><br />
Use 2 tablespoons of raw flaxseeds and add them to your salad. You can ground them up and mix them into salads, soups after they have cooled off, and into health smoothies.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-30" title="colonix" src="http://thecleansingstory.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/colonix-300x168.jpg" alt="colonix" width="300" height="168" />Colonix is one of the many drugs in the market today that promises weight loss and a healthier body. It works by cleaning the body and detoxification. Being a popular drug, it has received various reviews both positive and negative. Many have given testimonials on the effectiveness of the drug. The biggest criticism is that Colonix do not divulge the real ingredients of the drug. This fact stirs curiosity among consumers.</p>
<p>This article is aimed at shedding some light on the content of three formulas of the drugs and proving its effectiveness.</p>
<p>As there are three drugs that comprise Colonix, we will look at each one to see what the contents are and how the contents will affect the consumer.</p>
<p><span id="more-29"></span></p>
<p><strong>The Colonix Cleansing Formula</strong></p>
<p>The major ingredient of the Colonix Cleansing Formula is dietary fiber specifically soluble fibers that are found in most varieties of plants. In contrary to the popular belief that fibers are only found in green leafy vegetables, the natural sources of soluble fibers include whole grains and legumes. Soluble fiber easily mixes with water when taken in and hence it is called soluble fiber.</p>
<p>Soluble fiber has the action of encouraging regular bowel movement. Apart from this action, it can also cleanse the colon from waste build-up.</p>
<p><strong>The Colonix Replenishing Formula</strong></p>
<p>The Colonix Replenishing Formula is said to restore the healthy balance in the digestive tract by injecting probiotic bacteria. This replenishing effect is done once the colon has already been cleansed.</p>
<p>So what are the content of the replenishing formula that allows this kind of action?</p>
<p>The Colonix Replenishing Formula has various types of probiotic bacteria that promotes this action such as lactobacillus acidophilus, lactobacillus rhamnosus, lactobacillus bulgaricus, bifidobacterium bifidum and bifidobacterium lactis. These probiotic bacteria or sometimes referred to as health bacteria restores the equilibrium inside the digestive tract by fighting off the bad bacteria that thrives in the toxins. The probiotics also helps the intestinal tract to absorb more nutrients from the food that we take in.</p>
<p><strong>The Colonix Colon Support Formula</strong></p>
<p>The Colonix Colon Support Formula is the last step in the program. It comes after cleansing and replenishment of the colon. It keeps the current state of the colon after the two steps. This drug has the following contents: L Colostrum, Flaxseed, Indole-3-Carbinol and Larch Arabinogalactan. Some of these ingredients contain fibers that keep the bowel movements regular. However, some of the ingredients do not only promote maintenance of the colon but also promotes health of the whole body such as the following effects: helps to promote a stronger immune system, boosts the energy level, and can even prevent cancer.</p>
