Question: What are some common colon cleansing herbs? Also can I buy them online or in a health food store?

Answer: There are a few common herbs that are used to cleanse the colon. They can be found either online or in most major health and vitamin stores. The only problem is you will not be one-hundred percent sure of the dosages or the potency of these herbs.

The most common herb is called psyllium husk. This is not broken down by the human body so it travels through the digestive system like a broom. It sweeps all waste material out in front of it and this is how it achieves the cleansing action that makes it so popular.

Another common ingredient is flax seed. These seeds are like the bulldozer following the broom in many colon cleansing systems. They tumble through the digestive system cleaning out the colon of particulate that may be stuck.

These ingredients can be bought separately, but we recommend buying a formula such as Colonix which has perfected a mixture of more than eighteen herbal ingredients into a mixture that has achieved documented results.

Thank you for your question about colon cleansing herbs and we hope this answer helped. If you have any other questions don’t hesitate to ask.
