What Is The Mosr Gentle Tyoe Of Cleanse, Or Does Our Body Even Need One?

The most gentle type of cleanse comes from eating healthy food which contains good fiber and nutrients, and then drink plenty of water or juice to wash the toxins through your digestive tract. One particular product that is gaining great popularity right now is that of the Nopal cactus as a health supplement for colon-cleansing. In the cleansing process it also reportedly helps with inflammation, hyperglycemia, cholesterol, obesity, atherosclerosis, gastrointestinal disorders, and liver function. For more information on the cleansing benefits of eating Nopal, check out the book, "Prickly Pear Cactus Medicine" by author Ran Knishinsky, a professional health researcher. You can also find good scientific information on the following website: http://www.pricklypearproducts.com. You can purchase Nopal in it's natural state, but many are taking it in juice form (see "Nopal Liquid Concentrate" on Amazon which is the fruit that grows on top of the Cactus plant). Or others are taking the green pad itself in dehydrated form (see "Nopal Powder" on Amazon). In answer to your second question, with the poor nutritional value of so many foods today (i.e. junk foods) and the preservatives, etc. it is good to cleanse the body periodically. Perhaps the least favorite but important way to cleanse comes from merely have a good 24 hour fast (meaning no food, but plenty of water). This gives your digestive system a chance to rest and wash out toxins that collect in the colon.
