Why Regular Cleansing is Essential
The effects of a body cleanse go far beyond being just a physical cleanse or a good way to lose excess weight: it is a powerful way to make changes on every level of your being. When you make a change in your physical body, you will see that change joyfully expressed in your mental, emotional and spiritual life too.
Your body can accumulate toxins for many years without complaining, but eventually when your organs and vital systems can no longer cope, the body starts to rebel. And it is at this point of personal OVERLOAD that you will experience disease. This is when you cannot ignore the warning signs any longer.
The process of a well-managed fasting and cleansing program helps to release and eliminate unwanted toxins in a safe way. Cleansing supports and allows the body to heal itself, fasting is nature’s medicine, cleansing and repairing at a deep cellular level, with the result that seemingly unrelated health problems often disappear for good.

A healthy colon ~ the key
If your colon is not eliminating properly, it can lead to something called auto-intoxication. This is when the toxins that are not fully eliminated become absorbed back into the body, putting a huge stress on your other organs of detoxification, for example, the liver, kidneys, lungs and skin. Many skin problems (for example), usually have their roots in colon health. On top of this, the increased toxic load puts a great strain on your immune system, which increases your susceptibility to illness and disease.
Due to the benefits of fasting, a regular fast can help you heal with greater speed. It will cleanse your liver, kidneys and colon; purify your blood; help you to lose excess weight and water; flush out toxins; clear the eyes and tongue; and cleanse the breath. (James F. Balch, M.D.)

Cleansing alkalizes the body. The body retains fat as protection against the overproduction of acids produced by a typical Western diet. So, as your body becomes more alkaline, the fat becomes superfluous. Cleansing improves digestion, since a congested bowel and sluggish digestion can both increase the fat load in the body. Cleansing improves metabolism, as eating processed foods and high levels of saturated fat can affect your metabolic rate. Removing these from your diet helps to increase your metabolic rate and, consequently, helps you to burn fat faster.
