Our Intestinal Cleanser is a finely ground powder of imported psyllium husk and seed. As it contains primarily fiber and no laxative or herbal stimulants, it can be used on a daily basis to assist normal bowel peristalsis. (In contrast, laxatives and herbal preparations stimulate the peristaltic muscles of the bowel, and, if used regularly create a "dependency" and weaken normal colon function.) Psyllium has a hydrophilic (water-loving) action that softens hardened mucous lining the bowel wall, facilitating its elimination. Psyllium can help achieve a high fiber diet, which is so important in maintaining good bowel health, and is now recognized as important to help maintain a healthy cholesterol level already in the normal range. Our #19 Intestinal Cleanser and #16 Detoxificant are ideal companion products, and we recommend they be used together for maximum detoxification via the alimentary canal.* This product is a key component included in our 7 Day Cleansing Program kit. Our #19 Intestinal Cleanser is powder packaged in a 10 oz. recyclable shatter proof sealed container that ensures potency an Recommended Dosage: One heaping teaspoon mixed with water or juice, 1-3 times daily. Follow with one or more glasses of water. Directions: May be taken as described above, or put one or two tablespoons of #16 Detoxificant in jar or shaker with at least 8 oz. of juice or water. Add one heaping teaspoon of Intestinal Cleanser. Shake vigorously or blend to make sure solution is properly mixed. (Some people prefer to take the #16 separately so the liquid won´t gel so quickly.)
