If you have answered "yes" to any of these health questions, then you may just be a candidate for inner cleansing.

While media sources have placed a lot of emphasis on the heart, kidney and liver, your digestive system, more particularly the colon, also deserves considerable attention because it plays a major role in keeping your body free from diseases.

Think of your body as a top-of-the-line motor vehicle that relies on quality fuel to reach optimum performance. The food you eat should also be of the best quality to keep all the parts of your body functioning at its best.

Unfortunately, most of what you eat or drink contain substances that are not good for your body. Just like a car, your body needs regular cleaning inside and out to keep it from breaking down.

Inner cleansing is your body's way of regularly maintaining itself. The waste from the food you eat everyday is elimated by your colon. Ideally, your colon eliminates everything that passes through it by excreting waste through the rectum.

But waste can remain and accumulate in your colon due to a number of reasons. This poses a problem as the build-up contributes further to the sluggish activity of your digestive system.

Your body's digestive system is similar to a car's engine. If your colon is not cleaned regularly, your body will break down or show signs of trouble in the form of headaches, chronic fatigue, constipation, allergies, yeast infections, excessive weight gain, and bloating.

Not addressing the cause of the problem, found in your colon, has been found to lead to some cancers, obesity, diabetes and heart disease.

Cleaning your colon can be achieve by a variety of means. You could spend a fortune going to spas or health centers specializing in colon cleansing, or you could get the same results in your own home by adopting a colon cleansing program.

The most common methods include colonic irrigation or hydrotherapy, juice fasting, home cleansing products using bentonite clay, psyllium husks and herbal concoctions.

Most of those who go through inner cleansing claim that they feel lighter, better or have a general sense of well-being. When cleansing is used together with a healthy diet and exercise, significant weight loss has been reported. In fact, inner cleansing is the best way to jumpstart any weight loss plan as your body is able to absorb the healthy nutrients of your diet better after it is rid of toxins in your colon.

Unlike a car, your body does not have the option of replacing broken parts that can no longer be repaired. Regular inner cleansing is the best approach towards preventing serious health problems.

Don't wait for your body to fall apart. Before it's too late, take control of your health.
