An Exercise Routine:
|
One of the steps in maintaining a healthy colon is to establish an exercise routine. When you exercise on a regular basis, you help stimulate regular bowel movements. In turn, this will help promote a clean and healthy colon.
How Does Exercise Help The Colon?
Participating in a regular exercise program has many beneficial effects on all systems of the body, and is very important in improving your colon health. Exercise improves blood flow, circulation and increases the oxygenation throughout the gastrointestinal system.
In addition, exercise plays a huge role in managing stress and improving your overall emotional state of mind. When you participate in an exercise program, your brain releases endorphins, which are natural morphine-like substances, which provide you with a feeling of happiness.
Scientific research has proven that the bowel wall contains the same receptors as the brain, and undergoes similar neurological processes. In essence, the bowel wall has a mind of its own. It makes decisions regarding absorption and bowel movements. These decisions are often made based on your emotional state.
Participating in a regular exercise plan offers both physical and emotional benefits, which both have a positive impact on your colon.
Exercise Frequency & A Healthy Colon
There are many suggestions as to how often you should exercise and how intense your exercise routine should be.
Your age, current level of fitness, and any health conditions or complications will all play a major role in designing an exercise program that is right for you.
Some research indicates that 20 - 30 minutes of moderate exercise four times per week will help you maintain a clean, healthy colon. While other research suggests that, an hour of strenuous exercise every day can lower the risk of colon cancer.
Again, your exercise plan should be based on your current level of health and fitness. It's best to consult your physician, health practitioner or a personal trainer.
