How much naturally occurring fiber are you getting? Fiber acts like a broom or a mop in your intestines, sweeping and mopping away the wastes, the leftovers, from the food you eat. Without fiber those wastes just sit there and accumulate like in a clogged drain or backed up sewer pipe.
There is no fiber in meat, or milk, or cheese, or ice cream, or other dairy products. There is no fiber in “refined” white flour and all the products that are made from it, pasta, breads, cookies, cakes, pastries, and the list goes on and on. There is no fiber in other “refined” grains, white rice, etc. There is no fiber in sugar. There is no fiber in fat.
Fiber is found in fruits and vegetables, in whole grains and the products made from them, in nuts and seeds, in legumes (beans and peas).
How much fiber are you getting? Is your drain clogged or free flowing?
Another type of “fast” some people go on is really an elimination diet, ridding the body of those fiberless foods, and eating only fiber rich foods to do some “house cleaning”. In addition they may take additional fiber, to work on the “tough clogs” that have been there a LONG time, and won’t budge without some added effort.
Some of these fiber rich cleansers also contain parasite killers. You’d be amazed at how many people have parasites. They thrive in those gunked up drains.
If your diet has consisted of a large amount of fiberless foods over the course of your life you may want to consider not only eliminating them and switching to fiber rich foods, but also using an extra fiber supplement for a while.
Fiber cleansers are a powder that is stirred into water or juice, then drank quickly before the fiber expands in the glass and turns to a gel. You must drink a lot of water with them, because of this bulk. Fiber Cleanse and FiberBlend are two we recommend; they have natural parasite killers in them. They don’t taste great, but are better than most, and are highly effective. AND NOW they come in capsules! The best way to take them, IMO.
