Colon therapy is not a cure, but it is a valuable procedure and treatment for a wide variety of different colon conditions. A toxic bowel is the source of many health problems. By stripping down the old, toxic mucus lining of the bowel, we remove the number one source of disease in the body.
In addition, we open up the bowel to a more efficient means of waste elimination and nutrient absorption, both of which are essential to any lasting healing process. This is also the first step toward normalizing the bowel so that the friendly bacterial will return to keep the colon safe from purification and further autointoxication.
It is significant that surgeons and physicians are beginning to understand the importance of bowel care in the prevention of disease.

The helpful bacteria can only live in an alkaline environment. Most people, due to years of improper eating, lack of exercise, and poor elimination, have an acidic colon. So it's helpful to flush away the bacteria in an acidic colon. The great benefit of the cleansing program is to change the environment from acidic to alkaline.
