A healthy colon takes 12 to 24 hours to fully digest food. This equates to two to three bowel movements per day. On the other hand, if there are irregular bowel movements, toxins can build up and clog the colon.
The colon is designed to organically eliminate waste from the body all on its own. However, if we are constantly ingesting unhealthy foods, not digesting food properly, or consuming toxins and heavy metals, the colon will need a little boost to support healthy function.
Those suffering from an ineffective colon will also feel tired, even when getting enough sleep. They may also find it difficult to lose or maintain a normal weight, even if it feels like they are eating healthy foods. Another warning sign of an unhealthy colon is frequent illness. If you feel under-the-weather more than you should, maybe you ought to try a colon cleanse.
