Description
WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE COLON? The colon is the final stage of the intestinal transit of food, allowing the elimination of waste resulting from the normal functioning of the body. It removes fluids from the mass of indigestible food residues to produce solid waste destined for elimination. But besides its role in waste elimination, it is also thought to play a role in emotional balance and the body's resistance... WHAT ARE THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF SLOW TRANSIT ON THE COLON? Pollution, stress or an unbalanced diet can contribute to overloading the colon with waste and toxins. When transit is too slow, food waste (substances unusable by the body and glue-like waste) and toxins are either reabsorbed by the body and accumulate in the system, or are directed towards another similar elimination organ. The accumulation of this waste in the body, and especially in the colon, is harmful to health. To maintain good health as well as good digestion, it is therefore worthwhile to eliminate this waste from the body. CÔLON DÉTOX, A SYNERGY OF ACTIVE INGREDIENTS CAREFULLY SELECTED FOR THEIR BENEFITS ON TRANSIT AND THE COLON Côlon Détox is a complementary combination of plants specially selected for their beneficial effects on intestinal transit and colon health: √ The patented active ingredient Fibregum™ is a fully natural soluble prebiotic dietary fibre from selected acacia. √ Ispaghula (or Psyllium) contributes to intestinal transit and helps maintain a healthy colon. √ Tamarind facilitates digestion and promotes transit through a bulking effect. √ Fig supports intestinal health and promotes the proper functioning of the colon. √ Fennel extract contributes to digestive comfort (bloating and flatulence), supports detoxification systems and is recognised for promoting healthy intestinal transit. √ Cassia fistula extract helps maintain intestinal function and contributes to regular transit. √ Aloe vera extract supports gastrointestinal health and promotes regular transit. √ Prune contains plant fibres that help facilitate digestion. CÔLON DÉTOX, A 100% FODMAP-FREE FORMULA FODMAPs are short-chain carbohydrates that are poorly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract but easily and rapidly fermented by intestinal bacteria. In some people, they can cause symptoms linked to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) such as gas, bloating, discomfort, inflammation, pain, and transit disorders… A low-FODMAP diet can therefore be an ideal dietary approach for people prone to digestive and intestinal discomfort and disorders.
