    Modern lifestyle has taken its toll on our digestive / elimination organs.  Refined, processed, low fiber foods, animal fats, a lack of exercise and an ever increasing level of stress all contributed to our current gastro-intestinal health crisis.
    The frequency at which a normal, healthy person should move their bowels has been a great misconception among the public and most medical professionals.  For years doctors have thought that anywhere between 1 bowel movement a day and 1 a week was normal.  It the examination of more primitive peoples we find that their bowels move much more frequently, 2 to 3 times daily on the average.  This is due to the fact that these people eat better, get more exercise and have much less stress. What we learned is that it is normal to have 1 bowel movement a day for each meal you eat, (if you eat 3 meals you should have 3 bowel movements).
    The Merck Manual, the medical industry's standard text for the diagnosis and treatment of disease tells us that colon degeneration is on the rise.  The incidence of DIVERTICULOSIS has increased dramatically over the last 40 years.  It states that in 1950 only 10% of adults over the age of 45 had this disease, in 1955 15%, in 1972 30% and in 1987 almost 1/2.  The latest edition states that the incidence "increases rapidly" over age 40 and that "every person will have many" if they live long enough.  Every American adult will have herniation of the large intestine.
    Diverticula, are saccular herniations that protrude through the wall of the colon.  These "bowel pockets" are almost always asymptomatic, (you can't feel them).  They are caused by a sluggish, constipated bowel.  These pockets fill with old fecal material which can be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream.  This can infect the entire body causing all types of toxic reactions.
    A sluggish bowel can retain pounds of old, toxic and poisonous fecal matter.  Many times the real cause behind sickness and disease is this retention and reabsorption of this toxic waste.
    The first step in everyones health program should be stimulating, cleaning and toning all the elimination organs, and the bowel is the best place to begin.
