CleanseMORE helps to relieve occasional constipation through two different mechanisms. The first mechanism is through hydration of the colon. The most common cause of constipation for Canadians is dehydration. CleanseMORE allows for proper hydration of the colon by using the mineral, magnesium hydroxide. Magnesium hydroxide helps to regulate water into the bowel. If sufficient levels are ingested, state of hydragogue (water flushed into the bowel) is created in the colon. When the colon is fully hydrated, elimination can occur without the need of harsh laxatives. The second mechanism enhanced by CleanseMORE is peristalsis. Peristalsis is the smooth muscle contraction of the colon. The herbs, cape aloe leaf and rhubarb contain the active ingredient ‘anthraquinone’ which stimulates peristalsis. Triphala, an ayurvedic herb traditionally used in India, also stimulates peristalsis. By hydrating the colon, as well as stimulating peristalsis, elimination can be achieved at a normal level (2-3 times per day). CleanseMORE is formulated to improve elimination while avoiding the serious side effects of laxatives.
