The bran revolution in perspective

In 1972, a British doctor, Dr Dennis Burkitt, began to publicise his theory that constipation, caused by lack of fibre in the diet, went on to be a factor in diverticulitis - a form of colonic inflammation and even led to cancer of the bowel.
Around the same time, commander T.L. Cleave, a surgeon, suggested that the low-fibre diet served upto seamen caused constipation - the biggest health problem in the Royal Navy and that this could b a precursor of varicose veins and haemorrhoids.
As a result of all the publicity, bran became almost an obsession with some people. Unfortunately excessive consumption of bran can cause problems such as abdominal bloating and flatulence. Bran contains a substance called phytic acic which inhibits the body's absorbtion of certain minerals, especially iron, to the extent that lare intakes ofbran can contribute to amenia.

Five steps to kick start your bowel

Ensure that your intake of fibre is high, because fibre in the presence of water forms a soft stool which stimulates the gut to contract.

Make sure you aim to drink at lest two litres of water a day to assist the fibre in your food to stimulate the gut.

Although small doses of caffeine stimulates the small muscles of the intestine to contract ( which can help to alleviate short term constipation) too much can dehydrate the body making the problem worse. two to three cups a day should be the maximum.

The Open System

This method of hydrotherapy is a modification associated with the German machine known as the Colon Hydrostat.

The brand new machine is called the Aggi named after the designer Alan Gray. The machine is able to offer both methods of delivery but the open system is becoming more and more popular with clients.
