In many beauty medical institutions, the so-called sausage washing beauty is very popular. There are various bowel washing projects such as "health colon hydrotherapy" and "automatic colon hydrotherapy", and the prices range from 100-300 yuan. You can also buy it online.
Can you lose weight and clear intestines by drinking slimming tea and qingchang tea sold in the market for a long time?
Some diet pills or health products contain senna, aloe, rhubarb and cassia seed. If you eat them often, your intestines will turn black. Aloe capsules, Changrun tea and Changqing tea, which are popular in the market, are easy to cause this kind of melanosis coli, commonly known as melanosis coli, which means that macrophages in the inherent membrane of colon contain lipofuscin-like substances, that is, non-inflammatory lesions caused by mucosal pigmentation. The detection rate of melanosis coli in patients who take anthraquinone glycoside laxatives for a long time is getting higher and higher.
Many patients in the outpatient department buy their own medicine for beauty or weight loss. There are a lot of anthraquinone glycosides in the drugstore. Long-term use of laxatives can cause chloasma in the intestine, that is, the large intestine mucosa turns black, which is a precancerous lesion. Moreover, taking such drugs for a long time will form drug dependence, and abdominal distension and constipation will be particularly serious.
Intestinal lavage is easy to cause intestinal perforation and destroy the balance of flora.
"From a doctor's point of view, I don't advocate that people often wash their intestines. The intestinal flora of normal people is the balance of beneficial bacteria and harmful bacteria. Frequent intestinal lavage will inevitably destroy the balance of intestinal flora. " Li Shirong said that the propaganda of commercial profit often contains false and exaggerated elements, and doctors consider it from the perspective of ensuring people's health. Lan Ping, chief physician of the Department of Gastrointestinal and Anal Surgery of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, said, "If the staff who do the specific operation of intestinal lavage have not received medical training, they can't deal with it effectively in case of emergency, which may also cause harm to patients. For example, if you don't know what liquid to use and how much to use, it is easy to be dangerous, such as washing and intestinal perforation. When washing intestines, the catheter should be inserted into the rectum through the anus to a depth of about 6 cm. The operating rules strictly require one person and one tube, that is, the inlet and outlet tubes must be used once. If the operation is illegal, it may not only destroy the acid-base balance in the patient's body, but even cause intestinal perforation and reverse infection. In addition, there is no guarantee that the liquid injected into the intestine will not flow out at all. If some people's anal sphincter is loose, pouring 100 ml may lead to 5 ml outflow, especially for women. The anus is very close to the urethra and vaginal orifice, and it is easy to pollute the urethra and vagina when the stool in the lavage fluid flows out. " Frequent bowel washing will lead to more relaxation of anal sphincter and insensitive defecation.
"Intestinal lavage should be operated by medical personnel. They know how much water to fill and how to observe the reaction when washing intestines. Because the amount of enema water is very particular, personal tolerance is also different. Especially for patients with diseases, including intestinal adhesion, volvulus, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, Meckel's diverticulum, and even tumor patients, careless bowel washing can lead to intestinal perforation. " Li Shirong stressed.
Reminder: blindly washing intestines is easy to hurt your health.
Shi Xianyan, chief physician of the Department of Gastroenterology, Central South Hospital, reminded that intestinal lavage and intestinal hydrotherapy are actually commonly used enema methods in medicine. The principle is to insert a tube from the anus into the rectum, and within half an hour, clear water is injected into the human body through the control of the enema device, while waste water is discharged from the other end of the tube. Doctors have strict control standards for this, which are generally used for patients undergoing colonoscopy and intestinal surgery and patients with severe constipation.
Shi Xianyan said that harmful substances produced during metabolism can be excreted through defecation, skin and breath. The human body does not need to wash intestines deliberately, and washing intestines cannot achieve the purpose of detoxification and beauty. Secondly, nutrition is mainly absorbed by the small intestine, and the oil in the large intestine will not be absorbed, so there is no scientific basis for washing intestines to lose weight.
The doctor reminded that frequent bowel washing is not only harmful to the body, but also very harmful. Because there are normal beneficial bacteria in human intestine, which can play the role of defense barrier, intestinal lavage will remove beneficial bacteria at the same time, affecting the normal function of intestine; Frequent intestinal lavage can also lead to the loss of fat-soluble vitamins in the intestine, and fat-soluble vitamins are indispensable components for normal skin growth and metabolism. Therefore, frequent intestinal lavage is not only unsightly, but also harmful to the skin, and may even cause "disfigurement".
Even patients with severe constipation are not advised to wash their intestines frequently, because the intestines themselves have normal defecation function. Abuse of enema will weaken the normal physiological reflex of the intestine, even if there is stool in the intestine, it will aggravate constipation.
If the patient's intestine already has basic lesions such as thin intestinal wall and intestinal diverticulum, and the enema operation is slightly careless, such as high pressure and rough tube texture, there may be the danger of intestinal perforation on the spot.
Experts suggest that the simplest and most natural way for citizens to cleanse their intestines is to pay attention to their living and eating habits and strengthen exercise. Eat more crude fiber food, drink more water, and develop the habit of regular defecation.
