A Healthy Body Starts With a Healthy Colon and Great Water
By Steve Marmor

Today, growing numbers of health practitioners and their clients recognize the vital importance of intestinal health. They encourage their clients to consider herbal supplements, fiber-rich foods, colon cleansing and alkaline, super-hydrating water as part of an integrated, holistic approach to health and wellness. Detoxifying the colon has become one of the most popular therapies that I recommend – with good reason, because intestinal health plays such a key role in the health of all the other body systems.

Cleansing is a simple concept. In order for vital nutrients to be absorbed properly, the colon should be thoroughly cleansed and toxins removed on a regular basis. If the intestines, particularly the large intestine, do not work efficiently, digestion is hindered.

Cleaning Up Inside and Out

From a very young age, we are taught that we need to bathe, brush our teeth and generally stay clean on the outside. What many people do not know is that getting clean internally is no less important. Hardly any of us have been given an owner’s manual for our body or we would be doing periodic cleansing tune-ups on different body systems, particularly the colon. When functioning properly, the digestive tract and colon work like a clean-flowing drain. Food is consumed and broken down, nutrients are absorbed, and waste is regularly eliminated. Over time, when this process becomes less efficient, waste builds up and can be reabsorbed into the bloodstream, contributing to autointoxication of our blood, cells and tissues throughout our bodies.

The rhetorical question is, would you rather have a bloodstream like a lagoon or a Himalayan glacial stream? A cleanse can improve the health and clarity of our bloodstream and body tissues by increasing our body’s ability to absorb vital nutrients. Anything that inhibits the body’s ability to absorb necessary vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, amino acids and other nutrients will eventually impact the performance of other body systems and can lead to conditions such as occasional constipation, gas, bloating, bad breath, PMS, fatigue, low moods, irritability, weight gain – the list goes on and on.

The Right Kind of Water

Water is another key component to maintaining optimal bowel function. Dehydration, or lack of water, will cause stools to dry and harden, which can lead to occasional constipation and eventually to more serious health concerns.

Alkaline, anti-oxidizing, oxygen-rich, super-hydrating water produced from an Athena water ionizer acts as a trigger, for most people, for the large bowel to move excess debris out of the colon.
           
One in five households in Japan and one in eight in South Korea own a water ionizer. There these water systems are classified as medical devices and are placed in hundreds of hospitals and medical facilities of all kinds. Water produced from these ionizers are prescribed for all manner of health conditions: arthritis, gout, kidney stones, gall stones, acid reflux, Type II diabetes, constipation, fatigue, sleep problems and more. These water systems are seen as a very important health appliance and are used as an integral part of a daily health regimen.

The Athena ionizer is now gradually making its way into the Western marketplace and I promise you will be hearing more about its health value as the months and years pass.

Among the best investments a family can make is the purchase of an Athena water ionizer! This will help the colon remain cleaner and healthier as well as flush away acidic waste that builds up in cells and body tissues. Additionally, the Athena water ionizer helps neutralize free radicals, restore pH balance, prevent disease, slow aging, and provide our bodies with hydration and renewed energy.

Between water quality problems and the health care crisis in America, this is a product for every household.
