Fluids

The body requires liquid and if it;s not getting enough it will try to take fluids from the colon, this will make your intestinal waste drier, slower and harder to move out of the body.

To stimulate your digestive system, start each day with a warm glass of water flavored with the juice of one lemon. Throughout the day. sip 6-8 glasses of filtered water, preferably at room temperature. To get the optimum benefits from your fluids, cut out caffeine, sugar-based and fizzy drinks and instead, have herbal tea.

Water is absorbed into the bloodstream so it helps increase blood volume and stimulates the kidneys to filter the blood. It also encourages water-soluble toxins to leave the body via the urine, lungs, breathing and perspiration.
