1 The essence of the problem

The digestive process is based on a complex mechanism with a series of chemical reactions. Despite this, the food is not fully digested, and its components gradually accumulate in the digestive organs - the stomach and intestines. As a result, the content of slags and toxins increases, which cause the following functional abnormalities:

• violation of gastric juice secretion;
• obstructing the passage of stool;
• motor function impairment;
• occurrence of inflammatory reactions;
• creation of favorable conditions for activation of conditionally pathogenic microorganisms;
• dysbacteriosis.

Failures in the digestive system significantly affect the immune system of the whole organism.

The problem of dangerous clogging of the digestive system is especially relevant in cases of excessive consumption of fatty, spicy and fried foods, abuse of alcohol and smoking, frequent visits to fast food establishments, consumption of foods with all kinds of artificial additives, predominant nutrition of animal products.

It is possible to identify the main symptoms indicating excessive accumulation of food toxins and toxins in the body:

• frequent flatulence and bloating;Unpleasant odor of sweat;
• increased frequency of skin pathologies;
• chronic constipation;
• fast fatigue;
• breathing problems;
• appearance of signs of sciatica.

The appearance of abnormal signs indicates the need to clean the stomach at home or in the hospital. This procedure is called hydrocolonotherapy.

When consuming poor-quality products or poisonous fruit, acute food poisoning can occur when the food system is hitvarious bacteria and viruses: Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Staphylococcus and the like. In this case, the process develops very quickly, and the stomach needs to be rinsed urgently to remove toxins.

Neglecting problems with clogging of the intestines and stomach can lead to numerous complications. Among them, the following pathologies can be distinguished:

• suction and evacuation dysfunction of the large intestine;
• intoxication of the body;
• appearance of stool stones;
• malfunction of the organs of the small pelvis, liver and kidney;
• danger of intestinal infections;
• cardiovascular system disorders;
• respiratory problems;
• migraine;
• tumors of the stomach and intestines.

2 Food poisoning

Food poisoning occurs when you use poor-quality, stale or contaminated products, drinking raw water. The incubation period averages 10-12 hours. The main symptoms: fever, malaise, a feeling of discomfort in the stomach, nausea, vomiting, pain syndrome around the abdomen of a different nature, general weakness. The brightest sign is unexpected diarrhea. Usually the color of the feces changes: green - with salmonellosis, crimson - with amoebiasis, the type of rice cook - with cholera. Sometimes there are impurities of blood, mucus, pus, as well as a specific odor. At the first sign of food poisoning, immediately call an ambulance and start taking emergency measures.

Treatment for food poisoning involves two main steps: purification of the stomach from toxic substances and infections and the restoration of microflora and fluids. The first step - cleaning the stomach at home by washing it with the inducement of artificial vomiting. Quickly achieve the desired effect can be by applying a weak solution of potassium permanganate or baking soda( 20-25 g per 1.5 liters of water).After eating a portion of the solution, vomiting is caused, and then the procedure is repeated several times until a complete purification of the stomach is achieved. You can apply the pharmaceutical composition Polysorb MP, diluting in water( 1 tablespoon per 1 liter of water).

The second step is cleaning the stomach with a sorbent. The most common is activated charcoal, which is most often used for cleaning the intestines at home. It absorbs all harmful substances, inhibits their absorption into the body and promotes active excretion. Recommended dosage: 1 tablet per 10 kg of human body weight. In case of severe poisoning, the dosage can be increased. The most convenient form of application is dilution in water at room temperature. To modern sorbents, competing with coal, it is possible to carry Smect, Enterosgel, Laktofiltrum.

After the purification of the stomach and intestines is completed, it is necessary to restore the water balance. To this end, an enhanced drinking regime is provided - up to 3 liters of liquid per day. For the intestines at home, the most beneficial effect is the alternation of drinking a saline solution( 10-15 g salt per 1 liter of water) and sweet tea. A good restoring effect is rendered by the mineralized compositions of Regidron, Oralit. In general, after the cleansing measures, the following therapy is recommended for complete body recovery:

• preparations for microflora restoration( Hilak forte, Linex, Mezim);
• antipyretics at a temperature above 38 ° C( Paracetamol, Ibuprofen) and antibiotics if necessary strictly according to the doctor's prescription.

Do not use pain medication.

3 Routine cleaning of the digestive system

With the gradual accumulation of harmful substances in the digestive organs, the question of how to clean the system is expedient to conduct in a planned manner with the preliminary preparation of the body. Such purification of the stomach can be carried out as an independent measure or in combination with procedures for cleaning the entire body. The preparatory stage includes pre-treatment by therapeutic starvation, fruit and vegetable or juice diet for 1-2 days before the procedures, as well as warming the body in a bath or sauna.

The main methods that provide a cleansing effect: hydrocolonotherapy, the use of salt water, the appointment of laxatives and the setting of enemas.

The procedure for hydrocolonotherapy, as a rule, is performed in a hospital and consists in washing the intestine with water. As a result of this effect, several kilograms of weight can be discarded at once, digestion is normalized and overall well-being improves.

4 Use of salt water

At home, in the absence of special equipment, a simplified hydrocolonotherapy is carried out - purification with the help of salt water. In this case, unlike acute poisoning, the goal of the procedure is not to cause vomiting, but to pass the solution throughout the esophagus and urinary excretion. The procedure is carried out as follows:

1. Saline is prepared: the salt( preferably Karlovy Vary or sea salt) is mixed in water heated to 38-42 ° C in a proportion of the order of 10-15 g per 1 liter of water. Reduced salt concentration prolongs the process, but does not cause vomiting, which is important for the implementation of this method.
2. Drinking about 2-2.5 liters of water for 1-1.5 hours.
3. The drinking regime is the following: first, 0.4-0.5 liters are poured and a break is made before the passage of liquid through the intestine, then alternately the rest of the volume is drunk by portions200-250 ml. After drinking water should appear a urge to urinate.
4. After cleaning through urination, you should eat light food - vegetables, fruits, porridge on the water( preferably rice).

The best time for the event is in the morning on an empty stomach. In total it is recommended to perform 4-6 purifications with a break between procedures for 2-3 days. It is desirable to conduct such hydrocolonotherapy annually( 2-3 times per year).

5 Setting of enemas

The use of enemas is considered a good method for cleaning the large intestine. This method does not fully release the intestines and stomach, but is most often used to cleanse the rectum, including.with constipation. The most common enemas with solutions, which added salt, activated charcoal or infusions of herbs. You can recommend such compositions of cleansing enemas:

1. Coffee composition: ground coffee( 3 tablespoons), dissolve in boiling water( 200 ml) and boil for 10-14 minutes on low heat.
2. Honey mix: honey( 1 tbsp.) Mixed with lemon juice( from half a lemon) and diluted in warm water( 200 ml);an enema is placed for 12-16 minutes.

6 Usage of laxative

If intestinal motility and constipation are impaired, the best way to clean the system is to take laxatives. Such drugs can be divided into several groups:

1. Funds based on fibers: Metamucil, Citrusel - must be washed down with water. Muscle Tone Stimulators: Dulcolax, Haymaking.
2. Laxative osmotic action for facilitating the excretion of feces: Sorbitol, Colase.
3. Lubricating and saline products: Haley, Milk of magnesia. Chloride channel activators: Lubiproston.

For strong manifestations of intestinal damage, potent laxatives like Fortrans are prescribed.

7 Folk remedies

Folk remedies based on medicinal plants and healthy vegetables are good helpers in cleaning digestive organs. You can offer several methods:

1. Eggplant is able to clean the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines from various infections. Its seeds compete well with bacteria, mucus, worms.
2. Coniferous decoction is applied against toxins. Method of preparation: needles are crushed( 100 g), poured with boiling water( 500 ml) and infused overnight. Tincture is drunk every 30-40 minutes throughout the day.
3. Very useful for cleaning canals of juice from white cabbage, if it is used in a freshly prepared form.
4. Spirituous tincture of garlic: the crushed vegetable is poured with vodka( proportion 1: 5) and infused for 8-10 days at room temperature. Used in diluted form - 5 drops per 1 tbsp.l.water.
5. A common cleaning method: castor oil with lemon in a ratio of 1: 2.It is applied from the condition of 10 ml of castor oil per 10 kg of body weight. It is recommended to drink before going to bed.

The digestive system is highly susceptible to food toxins. The method of cleaning the stomach and intestines depends on the degree and severity of poisoning. Acute poisoning requires urgent measures. From the long accumulation of toxins and toxins should also be periodically disposed of.
