   You need to figure out why you have BAAADDD bowels and not do a detox as a ‘quick fix’.
   Keep a food diary and track your body’s reactions.
   There are things you are eating that your body is not happy with.
   Possibilities include–too much processed food–something you are allergic to such as wheat, eggs, milk, food additives, and many more.

   As a general rule too much processed food will give you constipation
   Whereas diarrhea is caused by foods you are allergic to or bad food.
   Be a food detective. It looks as if there are foods that everyone else eats that your body can’t tolerate.

   Thats all a bunch of crap (pardon the pun). All of that enema and colonic none sense is un-natural and does more harm than good for your body.
   If you want to purify your body, fast for three days, drink lots of water, dont use cigarettes and drugs, dont eat meat, chant Hare Krishna and meditate every day.

   If by bad bowls you mean constipation then just increase your fiber and water intake. Increase your fiber intakes gradually day by day either by supplements, vegetables, and breads. Those colon cleanse programs will do more harm than good. Your body will be flushed of vital vitamins if you take these drugs all the time. You might also might want to see your doctor.

   Colon cleanses and detoxes usually contain lots of laxatives like magnesium, senna, cascara sagrada, aloe latex, rhubarb, and more.

   These ingredients are not suitable for people with bowel issues. These are made to be used by healthy individuals who need a kick-start on a new diet. Even then, if you use the laxatives for more than a few days in a row, you won’t be able to go without them and you’ll become sverely constipated which is the worst!

   This product, Intestinew, by Renew Life is a formula that is meant to help repair and balance the digestive problems, although without knowing what the cause is, there’s no way of knowing if it would cure it completely. The company, Renew Life, specializes in digestive cleansing and repair so they’ve got great info on their website…

   Be careful with cleanses, fibers, and especially laxatives or stool softeners as they can cause serious problems if you have certain conditions or use them incorrectly.

   Good luck

   PS – get a good acidophilus supplement like Jarrow EPS or Enzymatic Acidophilus pearls, which are good for everyone, at your local healthfood store to get your healing started. Try to eat as healthy as possible..
