It's good healthy fiber.
It's supposed to be there.
It provides a good habitat for the microorganisms that help us digest difficult-to-digest fat and especially protein.
Our body does not take energy in highly processed form as electricity like our smartphone does.
No. Our body contains the equivalent of our electric power stations and oil refineries, to process our food.
And to digest all those dozens of different kinds of fats and dozens of thousands of different kinds of protein, we get help.
A lot of help.
Endosymbionts, in our gut, which digest thousands of kinds of tough proteins and dozens of kinds of tough fats that we cannot.
They live in our large intestine, which absorbs the nutrients that the endosymbionts don't live on.
You remember when they used to tell you to eat your fiber?
That's what it does.
That fiber is habitat for our endosymbionts.
It's good healthy fiber.
It's certainly not toxic.
And it's supposed to be there.
Without it life would be really hard for our endosymbionts, and without them, you won't be able to digest half of your food, save only for the carbs and vitamins.
It's good healthy fiber, habitat for our endosymbionts, and it's supposed to be there.
The reason that people usually feel so much better after cleansing their colon is that most of us have a rather poor diet, with lots of processed foods and preservatives and little fiber, and have a rather poor quality of substance lining the colon! With a miserable life for our poor endosymbionts! And we often start eating healthy when we cleanse our colon, and so we rid ourselves of that poor quality substance lining our colon and replace it with a good quality lining of good fiber and less preservatives- and that feels so much better!
But you're supposed to have that fiber lining your gut! That's how the gut works and does its job!
Beware of the quackery.
Beware of the fear. Don't give into fear. Seek understanding instead.
Sincerely,
David S. Annderson
