Introduction
Digestive sluggishness can leave you feeling bloated, tired, and uncomfortable. Many people turn to colon cleansing to help reset their gut and boost their energy. While extreme detoxes are often discouraged by health professionals, gentle, natural remedies can support your body’s natural detoxification process. This article introduces a simple, natural recipe that some people claim helps flush out waste from the colon overnight — using ingredients you likely already have in your kitchen.
Ingredients
To prepare this natural colon cleanse drink, you'll need the following:
-
1 tablespoon organic chia seeds
-
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (optional for extra fiber)
-
1 tablespoon organic apple cider vinegar (with “mother”)
-
Juice of 1 lemon (freshly squeezed)
-
1 teaspoon raw honey (optional for taste)
-
1½ cups warm filtered water
Preparation
-
In a glass or jar, combine the chia seeds and warm water. Let it sit for 10–15 minutes until the chia seeds form a gel-like consistency.
-
Add the lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, ground flaxseed (if using), and honey.
-
Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Let the mixture sit for another 5 minutes before drinking.
Drink the entire mixture on an empty stomach in the evening, ideally 1–2 hours before bed.
Serving and Storage Tips
-
This recipe is meant to be consumed fresh. The gel consistency and active enzymes are most effective shortly after preparation.
-
If you must store it, keep it covered in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours. Stir well before drinking if it thickens.
