Psyllium and Senna For Colon Cleansing

April 14, 2007 – 2:09 am

If you are looking for an herbal product to help you out with your colon cleansing, there is a wide variety of products to choose from. In fact, two of these cleansing herbs, psyllium and senna are commonly used in popular over the counter laxatives.

Perhaps the best herbal colon cleanser is psyllium. Made from husks of the herb, this product swells when it comes into contact with water forming a mass of fiber which moves waste materials out of the body. Senna is another herbal product that is well known for its ability to soften stool and make it easier to pass and expel from the body.

Other herbs which have a laxative or colon cleansing effect on the body include ginger, aloe leaf, and cayenne pepper. These herbs naturally stimulate the bowels and cause movements.

If you need help in cleansing you colon, an herbal remedy may be your best bet. Unlike chemical laxatives, your body doesn’t become dependant on these herbs as they work with the body’s natural function. These herbs are also readily available at most health food stores.

  3. What do you think about Isogenix as a cleanse? A bunch of my friends are trying it. Apparently u have 2 shakes and a 600 cal meal. And then dont eat 1 day a week while drinking their cleanse shake. Is it a hoax?
