What

Your colon gets clogged because of the processed foods that you eat and the alcohol that you drink. You clogged your colon until it is half the size it should be. The sides of the colon can become hard that the peristaltic muscle, what is it that pushes out the fecal matter, cannot function well. It explains why several people have to strain when they are trying to push the stool out. Straining is in fact bad for the body. The sphincter muscle (end of the colon) can even become weak and have difficulty opening, leading to the formation of hemorrhoids.

If you find yourself getting hungry in just 1/2 hr after you finished a meal, chances are your colon is clogged. It occurs because body can only extract 5 to 10% of the nutrients from the foods that you eat. Your body then sends out a signal that you need more food because it is not getting enough nutrients. You eventually put on weight and yet at the same time, your body still does not get the nutrients that it needs. Overweight people often find that when they clean out the colon to find that they lose anywhere from 5, 10 even 15 pounds. Their digestion improves, so they lose weight.

If your colon is working properly, your body squeezes the liquid from the mushy food found in the large intestine. The blood absorbs the nutrients from the food, circulates it and feeds the entire body. The colon then eliminates the excess matter in a bowel movement. On the other hand, if you are not having a bowel movement after each meal, the fecal matter stays in the colon, getting squished by the next meal you eat and the next until it gets compacted against the colon wall. This cycle repeats until you have layer upon layer, upon layer of decaying matter.
