Colon cleanser supplements are generally used to help the body to clean itself better by helping the colon to expel its contents.
  These supplements are taken orally and can include a number of items that assist the colon in getting rid of solid waste products and bacteria.
  The formulas can vary greatly but may include some of the following items.
Dietary Fiber Dietary fiber is well known for being helpful in helping our bodies to digest and process food more effectively.
  It may come in the form of flax seed or many other foods that we routinely eat.
  Natural Laxatives Another item that may be found in colon cleanser supplements is some type of mild, natural laxative.
  Cascara Sagrada is derived from a specific kind of tree bark and is used in some products.
  Probiotics One of the things that allows the colon to do its job of eliminating waste is good bacteria.
  These bacteria feed on certain things inside the body and they have created mutual working relationship with the colon.
  Some supplements introduce more of these "good bacteria" into the colon.
  There are many other ingredients that may be added to colon cleansers depending on the manufacturer and what they deem important in helping you.
  Some of them may add something to aid with constipation, as well as normal vitamins and nutrients.
  The ultimate goal of most colon cleanser supplements is to put together a healthy formula that will allow the large intestine to expel solid wastes that may build up inside the colon walls.
  Although there are other methods that work to help in cleansing, supplements are quite popular because they can be used at home and don't require a trip to an office like treatments such as hydrotherapy.
