- Is a colon cleanse actually beneficial? Here's what you should know: bit.ly/2Tisg1g
In this video, I am talking about how to naturally cleanse your colon as well as the best steps, foods and supplements you need to cleanse naturally.
Most cleanses today are fads that don’t work long term. I will teach you how to cleanse over several days as well as maintain this diet and lifestyle.
To work at its best, your colon needs no interference from foods that may block it from doing its job. The #1 step to follow is to eliminate processed and refined foods that will cause intestinal inflammation.
Top Foods for Cleansing Your Colon:
1) Fermented Vegetables (sauerkraut and kimchi)
2) Probiotic-rich foods (kefir, goats milk)
3) Apples- Cleanse the colon with pectin
4) Avocados- Fiber rich and contain potassium and magnesium- flush out toxins.
5) Flax Seeds or Sprouted Flax (loaded with Omega 3 fatty acids)
6) Triphala- Herb used in India and Asia as a tonic to support colon function
7) Clean water! 8 glasses a day of pure, clean water
Suggestions for a week-long colon cleanse:
• Breakfast- Superfood Smoothie
⁃ Collagen protein powder, apple, vegetables (celery and
cucumber)
⁃ Tablespoon of flax meal and 1/2 avocado
• Lunch- Superfood salad
⁃ Organic lettuce, tomatoes, avocado,
⁃ Apple Cider Vinegar
⁃ Tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
• Dinner- Bone broth soup
⁃ Vegetables, chicken, chicken broth
• Supplement- take probiotics (2 caps 2x a day)
Doing this, you will see great improvements in constipation and colon health.

@@belindaware5869 that’s #1
Don’t goat cheese not correct must be goat milk makes difference
@@wjjrwjj you’re right I fixed ty 🙂
When I feel the need to detox, I eat large salad for breakfast and lunch and then cook broccoli, Okra, pumpkin seeds with tomato sauce and eat that with a side of Kimchee. Cleanest snake poop ever.
+Todd Boden That actually sounds yummy! I just had shaved brussels sprouts, with pico de gallo and avocado and my ACV drink with lemon to wash it all down, Let's al get healthy together!
Todd Boden wow
😂😂😂🤦🏽♀️ I'm trying this tomorrow.
Same here Todd! Poop like Mountain Dog ! 😉
Soup and kimchi yes!
Thanks for adding the list to the description. Half of the things that you mentioned, I have never heard of before so seeing them in the description really helped me find search and learn more about them.
eat cabbage 3 times a week ,,never have a colon problem,,,,,and fruits like apples,drink water as you should.Also fast at least 2 days a week, dont ever over eat, most people eat enough food for 3 people every day.
Sell it now Sell it now.
Why fast 2 days a week?
Thank you for sharing. I never thought about fasting but I believe I will start this.
Anna De La Rosa i started 2 days ago...good luck.
Staci B thank you. I started today. 😊
Hi! Blessings and thank you for all you do Drs Josh and Chelsea Axe!
You and Jordan are absolutely fabulous!
excellent video. Easy to understand and right to the point. Great job!!
I will watch both as you suggested as a nurse x 20 years I'm used to following doctor's orders!:)
Dr. Axe seems like such a good guy
In fact he is
Great advice...do you excercise as well? If so what are you doing? I've been hi intensity excercising for 6 months along with some of the dietry components you mentioned. Definitely worth subscribing to you ☺
For convenience it would be nice if you had a one page (that can be clipped or captured) that sums up your breakfast, lunch, dinner menu. I have recently gone on a "smoothie" supplemented regime. I have lost weight, bowel movements have normalized, and my energy level has jumped considerably. My goal is sugar-control. Thanks to going "green."
Love your channel, Dr Axe. New subscriber!!!
Thank you Dr Axe
This is the best prescription to leave longer
I am one of subscriber.love your CZcams videos,
Love this video as well.
God bless you and your family.
You teached me a lot.I gained many knowledge on colon health. Thanks
Hi Dr.Axe! What probiotic supplements should we take exactly? How many mgs a day? Thank you :)
Thank you VERY MUCH for this HELP of information I will try it for sure
Dr axe is amazing!!! Thank you so much for posting videos!
+missindependent610 Thanks for your support! Stay tuned because I have new health videos out each week!
+Dr. Josh Axe I have a question can you talk about vasculitis pls I need help
Outstanding information, thank you!
Thanks for the post Dr. It's a great informative video. Medical student Malaysia stay healthy everyone. ✌👍
Thank you so much, this is a great start
thank you Doctor Axe, very informative and helpful
thank you for all the great videos.
I wish that you please add photos of the food you recommend, as English is not my native language...great advices though.
Great info thanks! What do you recommend for a good water filter? Is a water ionizer or distiller a better choice?
this is very informative doctor. thanks so much. ive eaten mostly vegetalbe salad and fruit for decades. love my raw juice and fruit smoothies. keep up the great worki.
This was very informative. Thanks 👍
Thanks for sharing this valuable information.
Which probiotic would you recommend?
I think it’s important to mention that some people who have gut issues might also have Histamine Intolerance and wouldn’t be able to tolerate fermented foods. Just something to be aware of.
Thank you! Dr. Axe. could you please share, when did it first dawn upon you that you were saving lives through your CZcams account? great video.
Hi Dr Josh, I enjoy watching your highly informative videos. Thank you very much.
In this video, I found a funny pronunciation of Triphala. It is pronounced as: Tree Phala (T is pronounced softly and Ph is not pronounced as F but with heavy P sound) Tree is three, phal means fruit... so three fruits would be it’s literal meaning. It’s not just one herb but a combination of three herbs/fruits taken without seeds: Amalaki (Emblica officinalis), Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica), and Haritaki (Terminalia chebula).
Anyways, it is an amazing combination. Thanks.
Thanks Dr. Josh....How much a day do you recommend one eat of these foods.... Saurkraut and/or Kimchi?
Thankyou Dr Axe, I have got extremely constipated several times over last couple of years, including hospital admission. It typically takes 8 weeks to clear on macrogol (max dose for 1st week) and not eating properly for ages due to vomiting. I started this protocol after a two day bone broth fast with macrogol, and left the seed husk out of the smoothie. I took the macrogol in addition to this cleanse for the first two days at bedtime only, and here I am, less than a week from onset of an acute problem 'going fine', & constant pain gone. There's no feeling like relief from that kind of pain. Thanks so much for this video.
I also swapped out the superfood salad a couple of days for slow cooked meat and a variety of garden vegetables as I sometimes feel nauseated after several days of largely raw food.
Hi Dr. Axe How often do you recommend doing the colon cleanse once a month, every 6 months or every year?
To my experience, drinking 1 litre of water as soon as you wake up in the morning is the best one.
I have enjoyed this video ~ I do struggle from time to time with constipation and bloating. Somehow my body does not agree with broccoli since I'm past my 30's (a favorite vegetable of mine) and dairy products. I do not have everything mentioned on your list and I understand these foods/ probiotics/collagen are some of the key importance from the get-go start. Will work your suggested regime in a week. Will be working this in with Chi-Gong. Hopefully, I will see and feel a difference in energy and flow. Thank you so much for putting out this information for us.
Very informative. Thank you!
I’m so glad I stumbled onto your videos!
Great, great tips! 👍 my gout was killing me until I took your advice. Now, it’s pretty much contained. Now I wanna reset my overall health. Did that make any sense?
Anywho, 🤗 mahalo nui loa! (thank you very much!) all the way from Honolulu, Hawaii🤙
Great video, Dr. Josh! I stopped taking a protein shake for breakfast about a year ago because I noticed it was beginning to constipate me. I really love taking those shakes for breakfast as I know I have given my body all the required nutrients. Is it not wise to take those protein shakes for breakfast every day at age 74? I really miss them. I used to put raspberries/strawberries in them with my almond milk. I could start adding a banana. Any advice on this? Thank you
Great information, thanks.
I follow some of his recommendations and it works. He is awesome. ❤
Thanks 🙏🏻 for the tips Doctor!
Thanks for posting this video. I always wondered if the Natual method was so effective. I might have to make a video on this colon cleanse method myself.
Dr. Josh.Thanks for all you videos they been help me to help my disable son he have fatty liver. Thanks again you videos the are Great
Dr Axe , thanks for useful video
Dr.josh thank you for this video
Is collagen safe ?
Thanks for the info, rather do this than an enema
Thanks Dr Josh ,updating for color cleanser .
he knows his stuff. watch this guy people
Great video. Thanks.
Pronounciation of triphala was the most humorous though.
From India. Lots of love...
I like Dr Axe he makes a lot of sense
Great info Dr. Thank you.
I'm on keto, OMAD and lost 50 LBS and never felt better in my life and I just turned 60. Been doing it 2 years
What do you eat on OMAD please
How do back?
@@annlyne1296 for Omad I basically eat anything I want but I don't overdo it and stay away from processed food. I stick to meats, chicken (protein) and vegetables. If I snack I stick to raw uncooked nuts. First 2 weeks are the hardest but your body will get used to one meal. I choose for that meal to be dinner mainly cause we usually go out for dinner as human beings. Lol
@@annlyne1296 I also drink 8 16oz filtered water a day and fast at least 2 days straight. I know it sounds like you will die without food but believe me you body will remember fasting. After a longer fast eat soup broth otherwise you'll get the runs!
This is fantastic information
Really enjoy your videos. Am a firm believer that what you eat is what you become. Garbage in => Garbage out. Lots of ailments prevail just because of heavy consumption of processed food. Anything which occurs in nature has to be good for you. Processing not only kills food value but I feel that the body thoroughly gets confused in processing it and most of it anyways ends up getting stored as fat. Am from India and yes Triphala is big for us. It is pronounced as tree-pha-laa. : ). For us, this is the holy grail of digestion.
+Manjot Kalha That's right- food is medicine! Thanks for your support!
Dr. Josh Axe can you write it down the name of the food please
I'm a firm believer that the wrong foods can make your stool firm.

@@romansten9 LOL
Great advice Dr. Axe. One question that I have. If a person has some type of colon cancer what diet would you recommend? Thank you.
Great video!
Thank you Dr. Axe!
Thank you. Good job, well done.✌
Magnesium citrate. Dandelion and milk thistle. Up the water intake. Done deal. :)
trufflette yesss
Thank you!!
Mag citrate actually is no bueno. It causes the body to reduce ceruloplasmin, which helps regulate the copper and iron in the body, it is also irritating to the gut.
Dandelion supplement?
@@brendaseaman7508 Your best bet is the herb in their whole form! Leaves and root.
Well done doc!
Thanks Dr for this informational ❤️❤️
Thank you very much Dr Axe.
Thank you Dr for health tips ,love to all .
I always get my kimchi (spicy fermented napa cabbage) by the gallons at oriental markets for very reasonable prices. It’s so yummy, I never get tired of eating it, no wonder it has been declared the best dish in the world.
Thanks Dr. Josh Axe 🙂 the fact that I am already using triphala on an almost daily basis to cleanse🙃😉😄
what kind of callogen protein powder do yu recomnend?? where to buy... thanks..
also i find that doing a apple cidar vinega enema either 1 x a week or every 2 weeks really helps. great detox and nutrients.
Great video Dr Axe, but what if one's vegan? That rules out bone broth and dairy. Anything else you could recommend instead? Also: Are tofu and related pre-made vegan products (such as Gardein vegan chicken, fish and such) considered "processed foods" to stay away from? Thanks for your answers in advance!
thank again very inspiring
Thank you for this. I have so many toxins I sway to the side when walking. Thanks Doctor!
Very informative video
Thank you for tje Information im new to your channel, I've become more aware of my weight and the digestive system, since age 19 I've been 240 pounds to 230 but I dont have any health issue's to this day, im 32 years old and 5 feet 6 inches high, I've made the decision to change the way I eat and what I eat. This video helped me a lot, thank you. If you could give me any kind of good advice as to food, especially what veggies and fruits to stay away from and what to consume more, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
Great video ..Thanks
Dr. Josh Axe, it's actually pronounced ':tre-phil-ah." Just to help, as I can understand that Indian words can be quite difficult to pronounce. :)
Nice :)
Dr. Axe, will you make a video about different tinctures people can make at home?
+Randall Boughton Thanks for your recommendation.
Great Information
Aye truly brother, I used to tail your induction on ground cloves on my severely infected broken molar, stopped the pain, my aunt before ground some habbies in her processer, Sso there it gallants.
But thanks 18 got pulled today actually.
You worked
Thanks dr Josh!
Hey Dr. Axe, can you make a video on what diet (supplements) you should have when reducing acne outbreaks? And what can you do about acne scars?
Keep up the great work! Awesome videos. I'm trying to become a doctor too; looking forward to getting my doctorates in Physical Therapy. :)
+AJ Pestanas Awesome! Keep up the great work! Thanks for your support! I recommend you check out my video on How to Cure Acne: czcams.com/video/_m0Zs2vrybs/video.html
That was a helpful video! Much thanks doctor!
Maybe I should've clarified that I was looking more on what I should do for my acne 'scars' which leaves dark spots and an overall uneven skin tone. I don't have as many outbreaks now that I have a decent routine. Are there any dietary supplements/products you would recommend or should I just see a dermatologist?
thanks again,,, bless all,
Sounds great! Only problem is I would loose too much weight on that diet. I'm hanging on about 125 lbs and I'm super proud of that. #skinnygirlproblems
great idea
Thanks Doc !!!
Going to try this !
Nice video. Triphala is pronounced Tree+fa+la
I've been watching your videos all day at work :)
Dr. Axe, is drinking Apple Cider Vinegar everyday helps clear your colon?
Dr. Axe please, does this also works for stomach polyps?
Thank you sooooooooooo, much for your honesty.. We need people like you to help us to stay healthy
its tree-phala not tri-falia, major fan of yours.
+Dr.Josh axe as a fine dining chef, I don't eat a lot faster food or processed food...but when you refer to processed meats does that include house made processed meats and charcuterie?? I've always struggled with weight and obesity I'm doing p90x in the morning and gym on the way to work...but I have bad eating habits, I'm up on caffeinated beverages all day and won't eat but one time usually at night before bed and fine dining food at that...that being said are processed meats okay that are hand made??? and I'm making smoothies again finally in the am and it also helps my gerd, I've cut my nexium to every other day
Hi Dr Axe,My name is Cheryl,I wanted to let you know that I tried to buy the bone broth from your site and with no luck I could not get it.Is there any other site you could recommend me buying this,thank you and I love all the tutorials you put out
