Any kind of cleanse will not help you lose weight! If you want to clean your system and fancy going on a body cleanse then great, you'll get some clean large and small intestines but don't think you'll drop 30 pounds it's just not so. Now, I like body cleansing it's great for your digestive system and it definitely contributes to your overall health but how they try to sell it to you telling you that all you have to do is go on this 30 day cleanse and you'll be lean. sexy and weigh 30-40 pounds less is just not so!
Why you might lose weight from cleansing!
Ok, now put your thinking caps on, the reason why you might lose weight from cleansing is because most times during a cleanse your cutting back on calories limiting your self to probably a few vegetables and prescribed supplements from the company you chosen to buy your cleansing products from. Now we all know what happens when you cut calories you'll notice temporary weight loss, primarily from water loss and muscle tissue. This isn't anything I haven't told you before if you've read any of my articles. So, my point is that cleansing your body provided no drastic weight loss whatsoever you could of cut calories without it and lost weight. You may also hear that cleansing will speed up metabolism and fat burning, that's not true building muscle does. Ok, let's define some things starting with metabolism, which is the sum total of all chemical reactions that take place in the body or another simpler definition is the speed at which your body burns through food. Now cleansing your body or colon can contribute to a healthy metabolism but not like they make it seem and definitely not without a concern for muscle building. Cleansing your colon is not a major booster of metabolism!
Speeding up your metabolism
Ladies and gents speeding up metabolism and increasing fat burn doesn't come from cleansing your colon it comes from creating multiple muscle sites or in other words exercising and having frequent thermic meals every 3-3 1/2 hours for more about this read "Eat to Lose Weight"
Conclusion
Colon and body cleansing is not a permanent weight loss solution so if you want to lose weight and for some reason you think that having your colon cleansed is a good solution, it's not. Now it has wonderful health benefits like the detoxification of the small and large intestines and a more efficient digestive system so by all means clean your colon but understand if you don't have resistance training, moderate aerobics and good nutrition in place you won't lose weight.
