Over the last few years colon cleansing has become quite popular and many new products have come to the market, unfortunately most of them are not good quality and do not work well.

A new product however has impressed us greatly, that is the Bio Cleanse (http://www.TheBioCleanse.com) by an English company. The product is 100% organic and we are very impressed by the formula. It resembles the Blessed Herbs and Arise and Shine formulas, but comes at a cheaper price and they offer free worldwide shipping.

Below is a list of all of the well known colon cleanse and detox kits and methods in the world. If there is any we missed that you think should be added to the list, please email as at cleanse(at)detox.net.au .

When cleansing and detoxing, the amount of effort and change you put in, generally matches the result. Programs that do not promote any change of diet, or a minimal change, do not really follow our experiences and recommendations for improving ones health. Our experience is that a plant based diet, of at least 70% alkaline forming food is required for good health. And while detoxing it is best to only consume fresh organic juices, if the program allows.

During a fast, cleanse or detox the body takes the opportunity to eliminate a lot of toxins that have built up over the years. The toxins are predominantly stored in fat and mucous cells. But also other tissues throughout the body. There are many different types of detox recipes a person can follow and also a lot of reactions that can occur, some of which can be very unpleasant.

The reason for the cleansing and fasting reactions is that toxins are released into the system via the blood and other eliminating fluids. As these toxins circulate through the body on their journey out, they can cause other parts of the body to be affected. For example a common detoxification reaction is the headache.
