Autointoxication is one of the common causes of premature aging and doctors have proven that a high percentage of chronic and degenerative diseases can be traced back to constipation and poor colon health.
Some of the signs of constipation include*:
- Irregular bowel movement
- Trouble having a bowel movement (straining).
- Hard or small stools.
- A sense that not everything came out after a bowel movement.
- Swollen abdomen or abdominal pain.
- Vomiting.

You can prevent constipation and autointoxication by establishing daily habits that promote regular bowel movement and a healthy digestive system. Here are some basic steps:
- Eat a well-balanced diet high in dietary fibre. Foods that are high in fibre include fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, rolled oats, and legumes.
- Exercise regularly.
- Drink at least 2 litres of distilled water per day. Those that live in hot climates or exercise regularly will need to drink more water.
- Avoid caffeine.
- Go to the bathroom when you feel the urge to go.
It is virtually impossible to avoid all forms of external toxins, which is why our detoxifying organs such as our liver, kidneys, colon and skin play such important roles in keeping us healthy. Over time these organs can become overworked and lead to a decreased level of function and subsequently a condition called autointoxication.
Autointoxication is a condition in which the body’s eliminatory organs are not detoxifying the body effectively, which causes the body to retain toxins and waste matter. One of the most common forms of autointoxication is constipation. Constipation, or irregular bowel movement, is usually caused by a combination of insufficient water, insufficient exercise, and insufficient dietary fibre. It is generally characterised by an accumulation of faeces in the colon, which results in impacted waste matter – encrustations – lining the sides of the big and small intestines. These encrustations are breeding grounds for harmful bacteria and cancer-causing chemicals. They also retain toxins that may be reabsorbed back into the body, resulting in autointoxication.
Anyone that consumes a normal diet is at the risk of suffering from constipation to a certain extent. A good way to make sure that constipation is kept at bay is by supplementing with NewLife™ Herbal Klenz. Herbal Klenz is a complete detoxification supplement which is effective in preventing constipation, clearing impacted faeces in the colon, and detoxifying the body from harmful toxins. Detoxify daily with Herbal Klenz for better health and vitality!
NewLife™’s Herbal Klenz Powder is formulated with a unique blend of detoxifying herbs and dietary fibre that not only effectively regulate bowel movement, but also detoxify and cleanse the gastro-intestines. It is safe and simple to use as a daily routine, and offers a variety of other health benefits.
Made in the USA, Herbal Klenz Powder is a complete intestinal cleansing and revitalising supplement. Its soluble and insoluble fibres cleanse waste from the colon while stimulating peristaltic movement. Herbal Klenz Powder contains:
Psyllium Husk – One of the world’s most used herbs, universally recognised as a premier dietary fibre. It is bulk forming to cleanse the colon.
Apple Pectin – Studies on lab animals show that the number of colon tumours were significantly decreased in the group fed with apple pectin, which is a soluble fibre. Research also found that apple pectin has the ability to clean out heavy-metal toxicity from the intestinal tract.
Butcher’s Broom – Long famed as a folk medicine, butcher’s broom has been used for years in Europe for treating constipation, kidney stones, urinary tract infections and various gastrointestinal problems. In the 1950s, a French scientist discovered two substances from this herb that help to reduce inflammation, varicose veins, and haemorrhoids.
Bentonite USP Grade – Known as nature’s age-old aid to intestinal detoxification. According to the Canadian Journal of Microbiology, Bentonite was reported to be able to absorb toxins, pathogenic viruses, bacteria and parasites in the intestinal tract and eliminate them from the body.
Cellulose – Stimulates peristaltic movement in the colon and decreases the absorption of intestinal toxins. Studies indicate that the soluble and insoluble fibrous materials in cellulose do not hinder the absorption of essential nutrition, but rather promote the binding of toxic minerals such as lead, cadmium and mercury, thus hastening their excretion from the body.

Detoxification is necessary for growing-up children to remain healthy
The fact is that children are exposed to the same chemical toxins as adults and the lack of fibres in their diet causes them to experience constipation problem just like the adults. Unfortunately, children are more vulnerable to toxins than adults, mainly because their bodies are still growing.
Think about the toxins in processed foods and fast foods that form the typical diet of most kids today. The chemicals used in all processed and fast foods are a constant source of toxicity. Also, toxins in laundry products, personal care products, household cleaning products, pesticides in the home, food, and environment, etc.
Hence, detoxification and adequate fibre intake are just as important for children as they are for adults.
NewLife™’s Kids Klenz is a natural plant fibre supplement formulated especially for children. It is designed to support healthy bowel movement and promote optimum health. It contains a prebiotic that supports a healthy environment in the gastrointestinal tract, and enhances the immune system. Regular intake of Kids Klenz helps to counteract the fibre deficiency within the diets of most children.
