When I went out to the newspaper box
This morning when I went out to the newspaper box I found a small package in the box along with the newspaper. Inside the package was a Colon Cleanse product, left as a “token gift” by one of my health conscious neighbors. She has been coming over to my house a lot lately, trying to convince me to join her crusade to get and stay healthy. One of the things she is convinced will help her/us in that crusade is by consuming products that will cleanse our colons. I’ve been biting my tongue around her, not wanting to hurt her feelings, but I’m not personally interested in using any product that is going to make me need to spend anymore time in the bathroom than I already do!
I have heard conflicting opinions by “experts” who range in opinion about how often people should have to use the bathroom. Some say that “elimination” should occur three or four times a day; some say once a day; some say a couple of times a week is fine. From what I understand, as the solids move through the intestines, nutrients are absorbed into the body; when the nutrients are finished being absorbed then the waste is eliminated. I’m in no hurry to rush the solids out so fast that the nutrients are not being properly absorbed! Food and vitamins are too expensive, I want my body to absorb as much as it can, so as far as I’m concerned, those solids can just take their sweet time moving through my intestines! I want my money’s worth!
