I heard that the average person has anywhere from 5 to 15 pounds of fecal matter build up inside their colon! (YUCK) and that a colon cleansing can get rid of that. Is that true or just junk science?

Also, if a colon cleansing is worth the money, do you have to go to a doctor to get one done or can you buy something at a drug store or health food store and do it yourself?

Thanks for any help and / or advice.

Colon cleansing was extremely successful for me in eliminating severe acid reflux, alergies and throat constriction. Do you or have you had any of these?
The first response was "Are you joking"? Well no. Your mouth is at the top of your digestive system, your stomach is in the middle where the acid is produced and if your system is working correctly, everything comes out the bottom, with regularity. So, no its not a joke. Study your anatomy. It works very well to be much healthier.

I hear colon cleansing has very good health benefits. Does anyone have any information?

i find the colon cleansing pills don’t help me as much.
Is a colon cleansing tea much better because its hot?
I shouldbe drinking lemon water but i really hate it in water.
Chrones disease runs in my family but i dont think i have it, that would be much more of a hell situation.

I’m open to any suggestions, and hearing your experiences would be good for good feedback, but the idiots who say you shouldnt do a colon cleanse please save it because my body clearly needs this.
Thanks
Thank you.

I know it’s healthy to cleanse your colon, but how often should it be done and what do you use? Is it a good way to jump start your diet? I’m in the process of taking vitamins everyday and starting to eat healthier..I would just like to rid my body of the built up toxins, not use it as a diet…

Thanks!
For those of you that don’t believe colon cleansing is healthy, this was taken from an article:
"Your body accumulates toxins everyday. It cannot eliminate the toxins fast enough. Your colon can manage between five to twenty five pounds of waste at a time. However, your diet and lifestyle today make it harder for your colon to deal the extra load. Residue from the food waste which remain behind after the bowel movement will collect more toxins.

If you don’t get rid of the waste from your system, the toxins will remain in your colon for years which can intoxicate your body. The more toxins you have in your body, the more severe will be your sickness. Therefore, colon cleansing should become part of your regimen of detoxification."

You don’t want a colostemy, & can’t get enough nutrients & calories from Ensure. (laxatives don’t work- documented).Enemas partially work,sometimes.Colon cleansing
won’t work due to no contraction/spams of colon.

I was looking up colon cleansing and saw some interesting pictures of what they take out of people. I eat healthy; no processed foods, lots of fruits and vegetables, and no meat. So I am wondering if I have that crap in my colon. Look it up, it so gross!

Like going to see a naturopathic doctor, doing a detox diet, getting colon cleansing, doing an elimination diet, etc.? What were the results? I am 29 and am still plagued by acne and NOTHING I’ve tried has helped, including all the over-the-counter acne cleansers. I need to try something else.

I bout a colon cleansing program that was featured on oprah and it is called colopure..I was wandering if anyone has tried it and if they had any advice and or could tell me there story?

..like they get something on your ass then you bring it out of the toilet. i want to have a colon cleansing but i wanna make sure. you know doctors these generation only likes money and some don’t really care about your situation.

i am 21 and i have seen colon cleansing online and saw some pictures of what came out it looks like intestines what is that and would it be good for me and how long does it take to get out
and also does anyone know what i should get to do this

I was doing some research on health and cam across colon cleansing. They said that some times people have parasites and do not even know it. Parasites like tapeworms, roudworms, whipworms Has anyone experienced this, if so please tell me of the pros and cons.

Lately I’ve been hearing a lot of talking about colon cleansing amongst my friends and I don’t get it. Is having good colon health really that big of a deal am I missing something?

These diet colon cleansing remedies have been touted online but I want to know if anyone has actually used these successfully (your own experience) or not. Thanks.

Has anyone taken Bowtrol Colon Cleansing pills or anything like that.. I would like to hear your feedback.

can someone give me a recipe for a colon cleansing that will help me lose weight?
i don’t want to have to go out and buy pills or anything.

ok, has anyone out there had any experience with colon cleansing or the products that claim to do wonders? I have a group of friends that are using some form of tea that is supposed to do the job. And when I check for products on-line, there are many out there. Some even claiming to expel what looks like monsters from your body. It sounds almost too good to be true (all the benefits). So, if anyone has any stories to share about products and results, that would be great.

Is there anyone who can share idea about using colon cleansing medicine, has it side effect? I’ve seen in the internet that many different kinds of strange stuff removed from their colon. I was scared to see all the unbelievable stranger things. Does it remove from our body easily? Pls advise

A clean colon is the foundation of good health you know.
Wow, calm down Elana. There are non invasive ways to clean a colon.
Homeopaths believe colon cleansing is an important part of good health – no one is asking you to.

My friend and I are having a debate about colon cleansing. He says that everyone should have it done and it’s necessary for optimal health. I say that it’s not necessary, but only optional. I think that the authors of those books and the creators of these colon cleansing programs are just trying to find a way to take advantage of and make money off of people who don’t know enough about the human body and how it works. What are the pros and cons of a colon cleansing? Is it really necessary?

What exactly is "colon-cleansing"? And how do I know if I need it? I am 17 years old male who is experiencing constant constipation by the way.

I am going to start dieting & exercising starting this week and i researched colon cleansing and am going to do that to help loose some extra pounds at first and to make me healthier. My question is, what is the correct procedure? I am going to use laxatives (the natural way would take 3 weeks of only drinking liquids and eating NO food).

Colon cleansing is suppose to help take out all the toxic we recieve from food we eat and from the environment. It makes since to do, besides cleansing our skin. I hear that acne is a sign of internal problems.

Does someone tried the Digest It Colon Cleansing product and know if works? I read a lot about Digest It Colon Cleansing and wonder if someone tried this product and found it helpful. If you tried it please answer.
Thanks guys
