❌ Debunking the Myths
❌ “You need to cleanse your colon”
No — your body does this naturally
❌ “Detox teas clean your gut”
Most are laxatives — risky with long-term use
❌ “You’re bloated because of ‘toxins’”
Bloating comes from diet, stress, or IBS — not stored waste
❌ “Colonics improve health”
Not proven; can be dangerous if done improperly
🚨 When to See a Doctor
See a healthcare provider if you have:
Chronic constipation or diarrhea
Blood in your stool
Unexplained weight loss
Severe abdominal pain
Sudden changes in bowel habits
These could be signs of IBS, Crohn’s, celiac disease, or other conditions — not “toxins.”
