Benefits of ingredients
Lemon juice
Lemon is a citrus that has antioxidant properties because of its high content of vitamin C. Vitamin C is water soluble, so it can easily cross the digestive system and destroy free radicals, or toxins present in the colon and likely to damage cells and cause serious health problems.
Apple juice
The apple contains polyphenolic compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. According to a study by the Max Rubner Institute in Germany, researchers found that polyphenols found in apple juice had a preventive effect against colon cancer. This fruit also contains pectin which is a kind of fiber with the ability to capture toxins to eliminate them.
Ginger juice
Ginger has antiseptic properties and is beneficial for the stimulation of digestion which helps reduce bloating while stimulating colon cleansing by keeping it free of waste and toxins.
Sea salt
Salt water is effective in the short term to clean the colon by causing stool evacuation. A 2010 study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine showed that alternating warm salt water and specific yoga postures can effectively cleanse the colon.
Caution
Performing this type of colon cleansing should not present any problem. However, it is always helpful to consult your doctor if you are pregnant, if you have a chronic disease, if you suffer from allergies or if you take prescription medication, since this juice contains lemon and ginger that may have in some cases, negative effects on health.
