Detox or cleansing drinks are one of the most popular trends in health today. Prominent health experts like Dr. Oz recommend using a natural detox drink as a way to increase your energy level and detoxify your skin. Another popular option is the detoxifying colon cleanse.

According to WebMD, colon cleanses have existed since ancient Greece, where they were used to clear the body of undigested food and mucus. These days, it’s believed that colon cleanses can also combat headaches, fatigue, weight gain, and low energy. Evidence also suggests that bowel health affects the nervous system, meaning colon cleanses can also improve a person’s immune system and overall mental health.

Kerby Mellon of the Healthy Body 23 blog says, drinking a simple homemade solution of apple cider and vinegar is one of the easiest ways to cleans your colon, so its a great way to start your day feeling more fresh and balanced.

Mellon has created many popular YouTube videos, including the Raw Honey and Apple Apple Cider Vinegar Detox Drink (see below), in which she shows viewers how to make an energizing colon cleanse to give you a boost each morning.
