Abstract

Intestinal inflammation and leaky gut syndrome can be at the root of many health problems. Colon cleansing is a popular therapy among alternative practitioners, but many myths surround it. The scientifically inaccurate way many traditional healers try to explain therapeutic mechanisms is one of the obstacles that inhibits dialog between traditional healers and practitioners of modern medicine. The therapy actually has clinical value, but the explanations used to promote the therapies are the stuff of herbal legends, not scientific fact. The concept of cleansing is actually a metaphorical explanation for a therapy that improves detoxification via the liver and gastrointestinal tract and reduces inflammation or irritation to mucous membranes of the GI tract.

清肠
肠道炎症和漏肠综合征可能是许多健康问题的根源。结肠清洗是一种很流行的治疗方法,但围绕它有很多误解。许多传统治疗师试图解释治疗机制的方式在科学上是不准确的,这是阻碍传统治疗师和现代医学从业者之间对话的障碍之一。这种疗法实际上具有临床价值,但用于推广这种疗法的解释是草药传说,而不是科学事实。清洁的概念实际上是对一种疗法的隐喻性解释,这种疗法通过肝脏和胃肠道改善排毒,减少对胃肠道粘膜的炎症或刺激。
