More and more people are doing colon cleanses and searching for them on the net.

Still, there are others to whom it’s completely foreign. Someone once told me that it reminded her too much of a colonoscopy.

Whether you go the full route of colonics or take cleansing products, it’s a totally different thing.

Let’s move on to the top 5 benefits of a colon cleanse I personally experienced:

1 — I first noticed what was missing: the headaches that were a constant part of my life. I continued eating a mostly raw vegan nutrition diet so they stayed away. Whenever I went off it, I found they would come back again.

2 — The almost constant runny nose and allergies were also gone and have remained that way. It is so great to breathe freely.

3 — Mid-afternoon energy drops are gone. Sometimes I used to even feel tired in the morning. Now I have the energy to do what I want all day.

4 — While it wasn’t the main reason I went through the program, the weight loss was a tremendous benefit. I lost 40 pounds and have remained at my ideal weight.

5 — And the surprising factor was the mental clarity I’ve been experiencing. I’m nearly 50 and I thought it was just my age that I was finding it difficult to focus before.

I experienced these and many other benefits that have completely changed my life and how I feel throughout the day. And for me, the saying is definitely true that if you don’t have your health, what do you really have?

Because of the benefits of a colon cleanse and the raw vegan nutrition I take in each day, my daily life is very different.

Because I adopted the raw vegan lifestyle together with colon cleansing, the benefits I enjoyed were clearly from the two together.

Stop adding new toxins if you want to do a cleanse. As you give the tools to your body, it will take you on a healing journey.

When we just get out of the way, our amazing bodies know what to do. Each of the trillions of cells has its own intelligence.
