Here’s a natural colon-cleansing soup designed to promote bowel movements and support digestive health when eaten in the morning:
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped celery – stimulates digestion and is high in fiber
- 1 cup chopped carrots – gentle on the stomach and supports bowel function
- 1 cup chopped cabbage – natural laxative and high in fiber
- 1 small onion, chopped – helps digestion
- 1–2 cloves garlic, minced – promotes gut health
- 4 cups water or vegetable broth
- Optional: a pinch of sea salt, black pepper, or turmeric for flavor
Instructions
- In a pot, combine all vegetables and water/broth.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15–20 minutes until vegetables are soft.
- Blend slightly for a smoother consistency, if desired.
- Drink warm in the morning on an empty stomach.
Why It Works
- High fiber from vegetables stimulates bowel movements.
- Warm liquid helps soften stool and promotes gut motility.
- Natural compounds in garlic and onion support digestion and reduce bloating.
Tips & Safety
- Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support the cleansing process.
- For sensitive stomachs, start with smaller portions and gradually increase.
- This is a short-term cleansing; not meant as a daily substitute for balanced meals.
- People with digestive disorders, IBS, or chronic constipation should consult a doctor before trying intense cleansing.
💡 Optional Boost: Add a teaspoon of fresh lemon juice after cooking to further stimulate digestion.
