Irritable Bowel Syndrome Relief

Are you sick and tired of hearing that you should eat a high protein diet with vegetables at every meal? How boring is that?! Most of us tend to crave foods with more flavoring which are usually high in fat and processed with little nutritional value. The result is a toxic colon which causes constipation, stool hardening and more serious problems if not taken care of properly. So, what preventative steps can we take ensure a healthy colon in this fast food culture we live in today?

The colon is located in your large intestine and its job is to complete the digestion process by removing waste after the small intestine absorbs food nutrients. The food and drinks you put into your body create cells for regeneration. They feed the immune system which affects mood, behavior, sleep, sleep patterns, cognitive ability and performance. That’s why we need to force ourselves to eat smarter instead of easier with pre-packaged meals read to go.

Colon cancer is the 2nd largest cause of cancer in the U.S. only following lung cancer. One of the major contributing factors of this disease is a diet rich in fatty foods along with a sedentary lifestyle. To help prevent colon problems drink plenty of fresh water (preferably filtered or spring); embrace a healthy diet of green leafy vegetables, fresh fruit, oats, and whole grains. Also, chicken, turkey, and fish along with foods high in fiber are adequate a few times a week. Other benefits of a clean colon include: increased energy levels, clear skin, improvement in concentration, and an overall feeling of better health.

I came across this article today, so I thought I share it with my readers.

Having a Positive control over our thoughts results in a lower stress levels, consequently keeps Irritable Bowel/Brain away!!

We all love to feel motivated. I know I do. It’s absolute nirvana to be on purpose and on task at the same time. But life often intervenes in my plans and that can mean stress, frustration and setbacks and I find that I have to live my life on Inner Motivation – particularly when the proverbial chips are down. Most of us wait for someone else to give us a reason to move ahead or we wait for circumstance or opportunity to line up in just the right way so we can move ahead with the inner commitment we’ve been holding back.  We wait for our partner to say ‘I love you’ first, we wait for a sign of acceptance before we commit to revealing some part of ourselves and we wait for the evidence of the result before we commit our belief.

To many of us this seems like a smart or even shrewd way of going about business and life. We think we’re protecting and insulating ourselves by not putting too much ‘out there’ and therefore avoiding disappointment or (God forbid) rejection. In reality, though, this is actually a very dangerous way to live life because it puts your life and your happiness in someone else’s hands - a sure fire equation for misery. From the inside this may seem like a very controlled way to live life, but it’s actually a very out of control way to live life. That’s why it makes us so unhappy and leaves us so unfulfilled. There’s nothing dependable or controlled about it.

One of my favorite movie scenes is from the Indiana Jones movie where he (played by Harrison Ford) and his father (played by Sean Connery) are searching for the Holy Grail. Indiana’s father lies dying at the hands of the Nazis and to save his life Indiana must find the Holy Grail. To get to the Grail, Indiana has to accurately decode his father’s Grail diary which will enable him to make his way through certain life-threatening challenges. After successfully making his way through several of the tests, he comes to a huge chasm that lies between where he is and where he wants to be.  He reads the Bible passage from his father’s diary which has to do with “faith being the evidence of things not seen”. He picks up a handful of sand and throws it out to the chasm only to see the sand fall on an invisible bridge.
