Colon cleansing is a way to detoxify your body by removing impacted fecal matter, mucus and congestion from your gastrointestinal system. Colon cleansing can help you lose weight, give you more energy, clear up your skin, prevent constipation and boost your immune system. Although many colon cleansing methods can be done at home, the most effective method is hydrotherapy, which should be performed by a certified professional at a clinic or spa.

Hydrotherapy

Colon hydrotherapy, also known as a colonic or colenema, is the most effective method for cleaning your lower intestine. A rubber tube is inserted into the anus allowing warm water to flow into the colon, stimulating the natural contraction of the intestine that pushes waste out. Water flows in and waste flows out. This is repeated several times during a hydrotherapy session, often with an external massage of the colon to help loosen impacted or older material.

Oxy-Powder

Oxy-Powder is an activated oxygen capsule that is taken orally and claims to wash "away the deep-seated toxic buildup lining your intestinal walls". While most colon cleansing techniques clean only the lower intestine, Oxy-Powder cleans the entire digestive tract. It works by dissolving solid fecal matter into a gas or liquid through an oxidation reaction. It's most effective in conjunction with hydrotherapy.

Bowel Cleansing Program

The most effective at-home method of colon cleansing is a combination treatment that involves a simple fast, eating only fruit and vegetables for 48 hours while taking psyllium husk, a high fiber plant material. This will bulk up your stool, bind with any impacted material in your colon and help push the waste out of your body. At the same time, take probiotic supplements to replenish good gut flora and complete the program with a saltwater enema.
