🔬 What’s Really in Your Colon?
The colon (large intestine) is designed to absorb water and electrolytes and eliminate waste—not store years of “toxic sludge.” In a healthy digestive system, waste moves through and is expelled regularly.
There is no scientific evidence that large amounts of undigested “mucoid plaque” or decades-old waste cling to your colon walls. What you might see after a laxative or “detox” cleanse is mostly water, mucus, and stool—not 15 kg (33 lbs!) of trapped gunk.
⚠️ Warning: Extreme cleanses, herbal laxatives, or “colon flushes” can cause dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and damage to your gut microbiome—sometimes requiring medical attention.
🩺 What Actually Causes Abdominal Bloating or “Heaviness”?
If you feel bloated, sluggish, or notice a protruding belly, it’s likely due to:
Visceral fat (fat around organs, linked to diet, stress, and inactivity)
Water retention (from high sodium, hormonal shifts)
Gas and bloating (from gut bacteria fermenting certain foods)
Constipation (infrequent bowel movements—not “toxic buildup”)
Losing abdominal fat takes time—through balanced nutrition, movement, stress management, and sleep—not overnight “cleanses.”
