Dr. Bernard Jensen,
D.C., Ph.B., Nutritionist, writes, "In the 50 years I've spent
helping people to overcome illness, disability and disease,
it has become crystal clear that poor bowel management lies
at the root of most people's health problems. In treating more
than 300,000 patients, it is the bowel that invariably has to
be cared for before any healing can take place."
Most of the nutrients
our body needs are absorbed through the walls of the  colon.
One of the colon's jobs is to squeeze whatever is in it to get
the nutrients out. After it is through squeezing, the peristaltic
muscles are supposed to push out what is left. If the bowel
system isn't working properly, everything doesn't get pushed
out, and gradually the residue coats the walls of the colon
with some of the worlds best glue. This can create a toxic liquid
which can get into the bloodstream. Every tissue in the body
is fed by the bloodstream, so when it becomes toxic we have
a condition of auto-intoxication. This produces undesirable
consequences and is the root cause of many of today's diseases
and illnesses. This is the way we manufacture disease in our
body.
Cleansing the colon
is very important. LIFE QUEST HERBS' SURE LAX should
be used to have regular elimination, so that the waste isn't
being stored in the colon. Then LIFE QUEST HERBS' COLON CLEAN
can be used to detoxify the bowel and to tone and strengthen
the peristaltic muscles.
