The article link above provides some excellent information on how to check your colon health and to keep it as healthy as possible. I do a beet transit test each Sunday as part of my mock fecal transplant therapy that I have posted about many times.
For a normal human you should start to see beet red stool after about 18-24 hours of consuming it. When you have cleansed everything out as I have mentioned before, you see that much faster and you know you are now clear.
This test can tell you a lot of things.
- If you never see the beets: you are really constipated and slow moving in the gi.
- If you see it too quickly and you have not cleansed, you have IBS-D active.
- If you see it in about 12+ hours, you are doing pretty well.
Here is my recipe for today and it was pretty tasty also:
Beet Transit Juice + Choice probiotic
- 3 small/med beets
- 3 apples
- 1/2 bag cranberries
- 1/2 lemon
- Coconut water to taste
Please consider the weekly cleanse. I cleanse out with herbal and PH water. I drink this juice and take probiotics to reseed the gi tract.
Have a great week ahead :):)
