Cleanse the bowel, but do not drain it aggressively

A mild intestinal regeneration cure with the right diet, so that the intestinal flora can recover naturally, is therefore recommended, as a kind of wellness for the intestine , so to speak . A week can go a long way. In principle, there are only two things to keep in mind:

1. At the beginning there is colon cleansing. It often takes several days for the residues to pass after a meal. This can be supported with healing earth and flea seeds. These natural measures have a gentle laxative effect and are usually better tolerated than strong laxatives such as Glauber’s salt.

The mild cleansing is complemented by light fasting. Both measures work together like a “reset” of the bowel, driving it back to zero, so to speak. This can be rebuilt with the right, this time intestinal healthy diet.

2. This diet should contain probiotics (including lactic acid bacteria) because they can help the intestinal flora to repopulate with beneficial intestinal bacteria. In addition, fiber-rich fresh food is part of it. Because dietary fibers act like prebiotics, so they serve as food for the “good” intestinal bacteria.

In contrast, you should avoid red meat, sausage, high-fat dairy products, sugar, alcohol and coffee (and preferably not only) during the intestinal diet. Of course, it is important that you drink a lot during the bowel treatment. Only then will the fiber swell up well and be able to absorb, bind and transport a lot of pollutants out of the body.

Make rice water yourself

You can support these measures with rice water, the insider tip for a healthy bowel. The slightly milky brew contains dissolved fiber, mucilage, minerals and, above all, B vitamins. This combination cares for the intestinal mucosa and supports its healthy structure.

Make rice water yourself and drink a glass every day:

• ½ cup of organic rice
• 1 liter of water

Bring the water to the boil, pour in the rice, simmer for a good 20 minutes until it is almost boiled over. Strain, catching the water. The rice water can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Recipes for seven days of intestinal treatment

The bowel cure is suitable for all adults, except pregnant and breastfeeding women. Anyone who has chronic illnesses and / or has to take medication regularly should consult their doctor before beginning. And off you go:

1st day of the intestinal diet

In the morning : Drink a glass of lukewarm water with a level teaspoon full of healing earth on an empty stomach. This recommendation applies to the entire course. Healing earth attracts the toxins, so to speak, binds them and transports them out of the body.

Porridge – briefly toast a good handful of oat flakes in the pan without fat, add a little water and, if you want, a pinch of salt. After a few minutes, the gruel thickens a little. With this homemade porridge there is herbal tea to taste, after the meal a teaspoon of psyllium husks, like the healing earth, stirred into a large glass of water. Flea seeds also divert pollutants, swell up strongly in the intestine, in this way stimulate the natural intestinal peristalsis and thus shorten the time leftover food remains in the intestine. The mucilage in the flea seeds also nourishes the intestinal mucosa and helps it to regenerate.

Lunch : vegetable soup with potatoes and carrots, seasoned with a pinch of sea salt and caraway seeds.

In the evening : Sweet potatoes with dip – cut sweet potatoes into small pieces, sauté, plus there is probiotic yoghurt, which is seasoned with a little dill and a pinch of salt.

In between : drink a lot, herbal tea and mineral water, apples and pears (please chew each bite several times and slowly until a porridge has formed)

So that the intestine remains healthy in the long term

After this week the intestines have usually recovered well and digestion is working optimally. This means that the passage of food through the digestive organs has accelerated without the presence of diarrhea – which is undesirable, as is constipation. If you eat a healthy bowel diet now in the future, you will create the best basis for optimal digestion. Eating healthy intestines means:

• drink a lot
• Use fleas for intestinal care
• take yoghurt, kefir or buttermilk more often because of the helpful lactic acid bacteria
• Reduce sugar and fat
• eat a lot of fruit and vegetables instead
• Eat meat only once a week, fish once
• it is best to cook it yourself, largely eliminate ready meals and fast food from the menu

It also makes sense to refrain from cigarettes and limit alcohol consumption. With this simple yet powerful program, you will not only support your bowels, you will also be doing the best for your overall health, preventing illnesses and probably even losing weight in the long run.
