| Summary: | Colonic irrigation (colon hydrotherapy) is a procedure where water is applied to clean the colon of the contents it holds. Colonic irrigation has a theoretical rationale for improving systemic inflammation and gastrointestinal health. Applications in metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal problems, and age-related diseases are speculative and demand further research. Moreover, particular attention should be given to the contraindications of colonic irrigation. Colonic irrigation as an anti-aging modality through its proposed anti-inflammatory effects remains a very controversial topic. The objective of this article is to examine the potential mechanisms of action and contraindications of colonic irrigation while discussing the hypotheses and current knowledge regarding its potential anti-inflammatory and anti-aging benefits. |
