Several stories have been circulated after John Wayne’s death from cancer one of which was the discovery of over 35 pounds of impacted fecal matter in his colon. 

Will your own colon be able to carry that amount of baggage?

It helps to think that the body cleanses itself through its natural cleansing regimen. You have to keep in mind that the body has seven channels of elimination that needs to be cleansed first before it can properly function. These channels are the liver, lungs, lymphatic system, blood, skin, colon and kidneys. In order to maintain a clean and healthy body, each channel of elimination must be given their respective cleansing regimen. Cleansing only one of the channels of elimination is not unlike deciding to clean only the closets while leaving the rest of the house dirty and vulnerable to disease-carrying pests.

The colon, which is one of the channels of elimination, is said to be constipated when it fails to discard waste matter within 24 hours after food intake. Ideally, the transit time of food is 24 hours which is the length of time it takes for food to enter the mouth and exit the rectum. Failure to excrete food as waste within the transit time could be an indication of a poor digestive health.

According to the naturopathic perspective, transit time of food that is beyond 24 hours allows toxins to stay longer in our digestive tract which will trigger harmful chemical reactions such as causing carbohydrates to ferment and proteins to putrefy.

The body can only take so much of the toxins and its effects. The risk of developing various diseases is high when the body is continuously exposed to these toxins in the digestive tract.

It might be hard to believe that over 35 pounds of impacted fecal matter was found in John Wayne’s colon. What cannot be taken for granted is the adverse effects of the accumulated waste material to the body.
