THE BROWN RICE COLON CLEANSE
Why is it that white rice usually beats brown rice? Well, it’s cheaper, cooks faster and is fluffier than the brown variety.
Sadly, this means that most people miss out on brown rice – a real powerhouse food that actually has double the fiber of white rice!
Brown rice is not just nutritionally great for your body though – it also acts as a powerful cleanser with a similar effect to Psyllium husk.
This high fiber Brown Rice Colon Cleanse is a 7 day cleanse that is very easy to follow.
HOW IT WORKS
Brown rice contains a high amount of fiber which is excellent for cleansing the colon. In your intestine it acts like a pipe cleaner, grabbing nasty toxins like pollutants, chemicals, pesticides, heavy metals on its way through.
In order for this cleanse to work you must use organic brown rice, cooked very thoroughly to make it easier to digest. Soak the rice for at least 25-30 minutes, overnight if you can, to really soften the bran layer on the rice grain.
THE BROWN RICE COLON CLEANSING DIET
This is a very high fiber diet, with considerable flexibility on what you eat as long as you stick to the correct fruits, vegetables and brown rice. Stick to it for 7 days and you’ll get some great results.
There are no specific restrictions on portion sizes, but try to eat only until you feel 80% full. Chewing the rice slowly will help as this slows down the eating process and allows your body to tell you that you are full.
- Fresh fruits, except banana.
- Herbs and spices such as garlic, chili peppers, cilantro, ginger, parley, onions.
- A small amount of extra virgin olive oil or flax seed oil can be used with the veggies and rice.
- Freshly squeezed juices, hot lemon tea with ginger, fresh mint tea, non-caffeinated herbal teas.
- Fresh vegetables, except corn and mushrooms. They can be eaten raw, lightly steamed or oven baked. No frozen or canned food is allowed.
