Alternative Medicine/colon bowel clense

Question
Hi.

i had gasterenteritis whilst in thailand in august of this year and was in hospital on a drip for 5 days. i have had a few colds since then and now i have shingles, herpes zoster. obviously my immune system has taken a hit and i think it would be a good idea to try and clense myself so as to benefit from the effects of a good diet. i have also been taking zoloft for depression which may have made matter worse, and it will definitely have increased the toxins being handled by the body. i have been taking 100mg a day for about 2 years but am down to 50mg a day now and hope to come of them in the next 3 months as i finally feel better.
so question is do you do colonic irrigation or do you use a herbal formula for clensing ?

thanks

Tim

Answer
I suggest herbal forms of cleansing as colonics are forcing the body to do something the body should do naturally. Colonics are generally used when needed when the body is not eliminating well.
I would first build the liver with depression issues as opposed to doing a serious detox first. Building the liver with Chinese Mood Elevator and adding fiber would be a great place to being.
Dietary changes also need to be made. Eat right for your blood type and get about 15 minutes of sun a day +
Probiotic 11 for the colon is a must for seraton uptake.
