I apologize it was a little more than a week since I promised to be giving you weekly updates on all the latest buzz words surrounding diets and cleansing and all that jazz. I believe last time we talked about antioxidants, free radicals and diet detox. Today we will be talking about the terms colonic, parasites and toxins. I know, pretty grim and unpleasant, but necessary as I hear these words thrown around a lot as well.
You can say this about body cleansing . .
“The process is not always pretty, but the results are always beautiful”
A colonic, simply put is the flushing of water into your colon to remove waste and feces that normal bowel movements do not pass. That is it! Yes you can buy $100 kits that will give you the best colonic ever, but honestly all you technically need is a beer bong and an open mind. . Sorry there is my sense of humor shining through again. For the record, I do recommend you get a kit for this, just don’t spend over a $100. The part most people won’t tell you is that performing a colonic can cause ‘discomfort’.
While the term ‘paratsites’ can refer to any number of things including leeches. Typically in the world of body cleanse and when people refer to parasite cleanse they are talking about intestinal parasites, also known simply known as worms. The best way to prevent the contraction of parasite is to avoid undercooked meat, avoid unclean water and avoid skin to skin contact with any on who may have parasites.
Toxins in the world of health and cleansing can refer to any number of things that we take into our bodies. From free radicals from processed food to cigarette smoke to car exhaust. Toxins is really just referring to any unnatural substance, unfortunately the life style we typically all live exposes to a large amount of toxins on a daily basis. The are unavoidable. The can reduce your exposure to them by eating organic and natural foods, not exposing yourself to second hand smoke and limiting your intake of alcohol. Ultimately you will be exposed to and ingest toxins in most of your daily interactions, so while this is a huge buzz word right now, just know that almost any legitimate cleanse you decide to use will rid your body of toxins, you don’t need a special ‘Toxin Cleanse’ to do so. Cleansing yourself of toxins is important, as the damage caused to cells may require the use of anti aging products.
Okay so that is it for this edition of Body Cleanse Jargon and Nonsense, again you can email suggestions or leave them in comments (i love comments!) about any other topics or buzzwords you want me to ‘expose’
Thanks for reading.

Hidy-ho neighbor!
I recently found your website and love it! Thanks for clearing all of this up for me and I’m sure for many others! I have one question that does not really pertain to this article but I found Tahitian Noni juice in reading and article by someone who uses it and I am wondering where it stands with body cleansing and health etc. I haven’t heard much about it but I would like to know more about it and where it stands in the health world since I’m kinda new to the whole thing.
Thanks!!

Tahtian Noni Juice is a garbage product made by a marketing company. They have even been in some legal trouble over the product. Spending $38 on green leafy vegtables will give you 100x the nutrient content of noni juice, save your money and cleanse naturally!
