Colon cancer is the second leading cancer killer in the United Kingdom.

Colon cancer appears more frequently in women and rectal cancer has higher
occurrence in men. Periodic cleansing would minimize the exposure of potential
carcinogens to the colon walls, would dilute the toxin concentration in the cecum and
facilitate the removal of same.

he result is a reduced load on
the portal !liver" and lymphatic
system allowing the five
eliminative organs of the #ody
!skin, lymph, lungs, kidneys,
and #owel" to #alance the
removal of these toxins with
their production. $hen a
#reakdown in one or more of
these systems exist and toxins
a#ound, the potential for
disease exists.
%esearch has shown a definite
connection #etween the nature
of the diet and type of flora in
the intestines. & diet high in
protein results in
predominately proteolytic putrefactive #acteria which produce toxic compounds, some
of which are a#sor#ed. &lteration of the physiologic flora !#alanced" can predispose to
the development of '( of these #acterial toxins. he physiologic !normal" flora is
speculated to consist of ')*+), gram negative #acillus and '), acidophilus. he
pathogenic flora consists of streptococcus, staphylococcus, -. coli, #acillus welchi, etc.,
which are present normally in small num#ers. $here conditions exist that alter this
proposed #alance, the pathogenic flora can flourish and #e a source of disease. .mall
amounts of proteins, fats, and car#ohydrates escaping digestion in the small intestine
may #e digested #y #acterial enzymes which are capa#le of #reaking down !cellulose"
and synthesize certain vitamins of the /*complex and vitamin K. he -. Coli #acteria is
a#le to split triglycerides !fatty acids".
he products of putrefaction may #e a#sor#ed in small quantities #y mucosa and
transported to the liver, via the #lood, where they are detoxified to #e excreted #y the
kidney in the form of sulfates and glucuronide. he material which remains in the colon
and is eliminated in the feces contain indole and skatole, mercaptan, hydrogen sulfide
and #acterial end products of cystine, which gives the feces an unpleasant odor. he
color of the feces is due to #acterial action on sterco#ilin !#ile pigment". .ome ammonia
is formed #y #acteria in the intestine, mainly from digestive products of proteins and
converted to urea in the liver.
0n liver disease such as cirrhosis, increased levels of ammonia in the vascular system
causes severe neurological symptoms resem#ling hepatic coma. & low protein diet may
ameliorate these symptoms. Cleansing the colon serves to dilute and remove the toxin
concentration in the large intestine and respective #lood supply. 1#servations have #een
made that a change in diet from high protein to high car#ohydrate results in dominance
of a non*putrefactive flora. 1ther evidence has shown that ingestion of fermenta#le
car#ohydrates !glucose, fructose, lactose" results in delay of or complete inhi#ition of
the putrefactive process.
he liver is the main detoxification organ of the #ody. he hepatic !liver" portal vein
drains the gastrointestinal tract, gall #ladder, pancreas and spleen. he #lood retrieved
from the stomach and intestines is not returned to the heart #ut shunted to the liver
where portal #lood is discharged into sinusoids of the liver which are surrounded #y liver
cells. 0n addition to removing, altering, storing, and delivering to the #ody digested fats,
car#ohydrates, proteins, vitamins, and minerals, hepatocytes !liver cells" will detoxify
any toxins !poisons" present and remove them from the system. he pro#lem arises
when toxins are present in too great a num#er to #e adequately handled #y the liver.
!Phenol and skatol normally escape liver action" &s with any organ or system in the #ody,
the liver has a certain capacity for performing these functions of meta#olism. $hen an
unusual #urden is placed on any one system, a #reakdown occurs that affects the #ody
as a whole. his #reakdown results in an increased a#sorption of toxic su#stances and if
left uncorrected, the #ody will poison itself !&utointoxification". 0ntestinal cleansing is a
therapeutic measure which addresses the cause or source of the pro#lem. 1ther
measures which treat only the symptoms will provide only temporary relief of this
pro#lem.
Parkland 2atural 3ealth Clinic offers colonic irrigation in 4ondon. his process would
clean and dilute the toxin load in the large intestine resulting in a reduced #urden on
the liver and allowing the various eliminative organs of the #ody in con5unction with a
re5uvenated immunological system to restore internal #alance and improve the overall
health of the individual.
