Colon Cleanser Herbal Formula
Our colons are often overlooked but it is central to maintaining good health. It is an important organ for the elimination of waste material and if it isn't working effectively then the waste material (toxins) are accumulated in the body and this is one of the major causes of illness. It is very important to have a colon that is working well.

This herbal formula provides an emptying and cleansing function for the colon. It is formulated to ensure success without excessive harshness.
Suggested Usage: |
This colon cleansing formula needs to be seen as a short-term remedy when things have gone wrong and the colon isn't working well. This formula is to stimulate the colon into action, but it is important to deal with the underlying problem - which is generally related to the diet. Don't use this type of colon cleansing long term.
This formula contains senna which is a powerful laxative and is not recommended for use by itself as it will cause pain and may damage the intestines. In this formula these potential problems are offset by the addition of herbs that will help to calm the colon while still facilitating the cleansing effect that is desired. The formula also contains herbs that will help to stimulate the digestive system and in particular the liver to work more effectively so that toxins can be removed from the body.*
Normally we do not recommend using senna. However this herbal formula avoids the error of combining senna with cascara sagrada and it does provide both slippery elm and marshmallow to overcome some of the problems senna can cause. It appears that an increasing number of people require the strength of senna in the initial stages of cleansing. If you are following our recommended healthy diet, which is naturally cleansing, you will not require this formula after your initial cleanse.*
Here are some details about the herbs in this formula.
Senna (aerial) Senna is a powerful laxative. It is used in the treatment of constipation. It is vital to recognize however that constipation is a result of something else and the cause needs to be treated. It is best to combine senna with other calmative herbs to increase its palatability and to reduce griping.
Dandelion (aerial) Dandelion root helps stimulate healthy liver function. It is a blood cleanser that is very rich in vitamins and minerals and promotes healthy circulation and stimulates bile flow. Dandelion is famous for its general detoxifying bitter tonic. Dandelion:
- increases the elimination of toxins, wastes and pollutants through the liver and kidneys and thus cleanses the blood and tissues. The bitters in both the root and leaves assist the digestive system and liver. It can be used for liver disease, including jaundice and hepatitis and for problems associated with a sluggish liver, such as, tiredness, irritability, skin problems and headaches.
- leaves are particularly effective as a diuretic and can assist in fluid retention, urinary problems and prostate problems.
Licorice (root) Licorice is a remarkable herb with an affinity for the endocrine system. It is useful for healing stomach ulcers and is as effective as cimetidine (Tagamet). It lowers stomach acid levels and relieves heartburn and indigestion and acts as a mild laxative and can be used for irritation, inflammation and spasm of the digestive tract. It also has a beneficial action on the liver where it increases bile flow and lowers cholesterol levels.*
Rhubarb (aerial) Rheum palmatum (this is not the garden variety of rhubarb). Rhubarb has a purgative action for the use in the treatment of constipation and it also has a cleansing action on the intestines.*
Slippery Elm (bark) Slippery Elm bark is used as a soothing remedy for the mucous membranes throughout the body. It will sooth irritation and inflammation in the stomach, bowels, kidneys, urinary tract and the whole reproductive system.*
Marshmallow (root) Marshmallow root is primarily used for digestive problems and on the skin. The root is used in all inflammations of the digestive tract, such as inflammation of the mouth, gastric and peptic ulcers, enteritis and colitis.*
