Triphala is traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for the relief of occasional constipation
Colon Correct is uniquely formulated to support optimal bowel motility and tonicity. It contains Triphala, a blend of botanicals used for gastrointestinal (GI) health in Ayurvedic medicine, along with magnesium hydroxide. Colon Correct can be used as a daily bowel tonic to help tonify the bowels or in instances of occasional constipation. The key ingredient Triphala consists of three fruits — Amalaki, Haritaki, and Bibhitaki — that have been shown in studies to exhibit mild laxative properties in the presence of occasional constipation, and has been shown to support the growth of certain beneficial gut microbiota. It also supports the body’s response to oxidative stress. This formula also features magnesium hydroxide, which exhibits osmotic activity in the bowel. Osmotic activity can help move water from surrounding tissues into the bowel to soften stool and facilitate healthy digestion and excretion.
Adults : Take 2 capsules with eight ounces of water at bedtime, or as directed by a health care practitioner. Take 2 hours before or after taking other medications or natural health products. Allow at least 6-12 hours for laxative effect to occur. For occasional use only.
