Common Myth About Colon Health Exposed

Maybe you have seen the infomercial that runs usually in the middle of the night. The one with the two guys talking about colon health and about how your intestines are clogged with fecal matter (shit) that piles up inside your large intestines and stays there for years and that they have a pill that you can take to "clean out your system." Its a great little informercial especially if you happen to be having something to eat at the time. The one little problem with it is that its not true. Rest assured that you do not have any fecal matter stuck to the walls of your large intestine today that your digestive process converted from some sandwich that you ate in 1992. Fecal matter does not accumulate inside the walls of your large intestine, it moves through it. It does not get stuck to the walls of your intestines and stay stuck there for years and years and you dont need a pill to clean it out. At the most your body would require about three days from the moment you eat something to pass it through your entire digestive system and either use the food you ate for energy or remove it from your body as waste. Three days give or take.
