Teenagers and Colon Cleansing
It is perfectly fine to introduce colon cleansing to teenagers. After all, they have horrible diets and their colon is most likely filled with matters that greatly jeopardizes their health. One of the most basic colon cleansing methods that teenagers can try is an enema. It is ideal because it can be given by a parent and takes less than an hour. It is also a cheap method.
However, if you are a parent and you are thinking of giving your teenage kid an enema, you must do it right. If you don’t your child will have horrible memories of colon cleansing. He or she might not continue practicing colon cleansing upon reaching adulthood.
The following are helpful tips on giving a teenager an enema:
1.No matter what solution you use, make sure that it is not too hot or too cold. It should just be warm enough. If it’s too hot, your child might suffer damage. If it’s too cold, he or she will have abdominal cramps.
2.The enema bag should be about 18 to 24 inches above your child’s rectum. This will ensure proper pressure into his colon. You don’t want the solution to pass too fast or too slow. Either situations will lead to discomfort.
3.Your child should be in proper position to receive the enema. Make sure that you let him follow the instructions given in the enema kit.
