Colon Cleanseing

Hi Jeanette, I go to a chiropractor in boyertown and I know he has done the colon cleansing. I would call someone like him for advice. His Name is Dr. Parks.
Just tell him Debbie Miller sent you for help.
Hope that helps you.

Buy "The Ultimate Cleanse" it's available at the Giant Food Stores in the Organic section. It costs about $22. It's 2 bottles of pills- a fiber pill to make you poo and an herbal pill to detox your system. You start out taking 1 of each 2x a day and increase that until you are "going" 2-3x /day. Works like a charm. You can also try Psyllium husk powder- you drink it in water or mix it in smoothies. It sludges all kinds of interesting things out of your colon. GROSS!

Not for the feint of heart is the MASTER CLEANSE google it and you'll get all the info you need. There are several message boards that are VERY helpful related to the Master Cleanse. I did a 10 day master cleanse starting after Thanksgiving. It REALLY works. You will feel better than you have in years. I'm going to start a 20 day right after Easter. Ring in Spring with a pure body- sounds good to me!

I have never tried it...this is why (it is a short quote from an article, the link to the article is below, you might want to read the whole thing)

Colon Cleansing uses herbal ingredients, laxatives, enemas, colonics, and/or irrigation devices. These can disrupt the normal functioning and balance of the large intestine, resulting in electrolyte imbalances, diarrhea, dehydration and damage to the protective bacteria in the large intestine. Doctors don’t recommend colon cleansing for improved health and well-being or for the prevention of disease. The colon doesn’t need to be cleansed. In fact, the only appropriate use for colon cleansing is in preparation for a medical procedure used to examine the colon.

You can probably find equally persuasive articles encouraging their use as well. Just be sure to read the pros and cons before you choose to do it. Hopefully people will offer you safe recommendations for products.

I would go to a place that sells natural foods. they may ahve some good suggestions for colon cleansing. you may also want to go on the internet or the library to get some information.

As someone who has dealt with Ulcerative Colitis and IBS for over 15 years, I'm going to say that the best thing you can do for your colon is to not aggravate it this way. I've been told by gastroenterologists that these products are a waste of money. You would have the same results using a colonoscopy prep kit which is just some heavy duty laxatives. The best way to take care of yourself in this aspect is to watch your diet, making sure that you are including plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables that will provide plenty of fiber and to drink lots and lots of water. I know there are some out there who swear by these home treatments but honestly it's the same type of thing as being able to cure yourself of gallstones (you can't). The other thing to be careful of is that when you start doing things like this, you may find yourself no longer able to "move" without the use of laxatives and treatments. It's best to be healthy and let nature takes it's course.

Hi, My name is Debbie and I have used the colon cleanse made by Nature's Sunshine. They have great products and you can order online with very resonable prices. I am 42 years old and a mother of three, two daughters in college 22 and 20 and a son also in college he is 19. And a proud grandmother of a 7 month old baby girl Zoey. The colon cleanse was a great product I also use other products they have I found this out after alot of research from a good friend of mine who also owns a wellness center, hope this was helpful to you.
Good Luck,
Debbie

Hi J.,

My name is L. James and I run a home-based business sharing a line of natural health supplements through a company called Life Force, Intl.

Life Force offers a very friendly Colon Cleanse program. It lasts 30 days, you don't have to alter your regular diet, and you are not tied to the toilet ;) The program gently cleanses upper and lower gastrointestinal tracts, promotes colon health, promotes greater absorption of nutrients (a great reason to do a cleanse!) and promotes healthy peristaltic action (ie, relieves any constipation).

You can reach me at ____@____.com for further information!

Thanks,
L.

Hi J.,

I've been dealing with IBS and some other health issues since I was 30 yrs. of age. I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue, constant pain from IBS. I went to a gastro. doctor, did all kinds of procedures with no help. I did go to an accupuncturist for about a yr and found out I was extremely toxic. Then I found the greatest product ever- isagenix. It is a cleansing fat-burning system and felt great ever since.

I'm promoting this product because it does deliver incredible energy, mental clarity, normal digestion, curbs appetite and the side benefit is weight loss.

My website is www.danablazo.isagenix.com if you want to check it out. Let me know what you think. I can answer your questions. With this product, your children can get good nutrition too. I drank the shakes(couldn't do all the products)while I was pregnant and felt great.

Hope this helps!!

you are absolutely on the right track with cleansing.I disagree with Kelly S. 100% on her response (no disrespect) I've seen many on tv that just look great - and agree for all the right reasons everyone should be doing it. We eat crap, toxins, they are poisoning our bodies. Read sometime best book I've ever read in my life "Natural Cures They Don't Want You to Know About." OMG I was in shock for 3 weeks after beginning to read this book.
Sorry I cant recommend a particular brand of colon cleanse because I havent done it myself yet, but if you can find a good local health food store where they seem knowledgable of their products, they may be able to point you in a good direction. Dont stop at colon though, go all-over body, liver, parasite, yeast cleanses....etc. I do believe its important though to take FIBER and nutrient replacements while cleansing.....be sure to ask about this. Fiber absorbs and helps remove the toxins from the body once they are loosened. I recently visited an excellent health food store in Morgantown for a general cleanse product and she pointed me to "Renew Life" which I tried and it was great

J.,

My name is M. and I'm associated with a wellness company that has natural and safe products. I use their
detoxifying cleanse product (1 or 2capsules before bed) and it is a natural and gentle whole food supliment. If you have never done a colon cleanse before you may use for 1 -2 weeks and then if you wish, follow every month for only 5 - 7 nights. That way I am always keeping a cleansed colon. I also have a well known nutritionist who says he likes our product because it works, it is gentle and does not keep you captive in the house. It is also inexpensive $19.00 a bottle which should last you for 2-3 months. Let me kow if you would like more information. My e-mail address is ____@____.com

There is a great health food store in quakertown. the man who owns it, i think his name is john, is a nutritionist, so very well informed and willing to share. the store is called "to your health".
good luck!

colon...like bowel in your gut...If yes, why do you feel the need to clean it? Not sure this is neccessary. Your body is an amazing thing on its own.

i've been hearing things about colon cleansing and it does interest me... but im a little worried. please let me know how it works out for you. what did she mean (in one of your responses) by interesting things coming out? ive heard some horror stories about this... and my husband says at least i would be getting these "things" out of me... rather then keeping them in my body. a friend of mine did this by fasting for 2 weeks and i guess he had the same affect. he said he drank water. i dont reccomend doing it this way. i think his was more for religious/spiritual purposes after his wife left him, but he was really happy with his results and said he felt great afterwards and lost like 14 pounds or something. again, i dont reccomend doing it this way, but if anyone has any more info on it, i would love to hear about your experiences before trying it out myself. thanks and good luck J..

I personally feel that eating properly and taking the right supplements that are natural will be more beneficial in the long run. Just my opinion tho ;-)

I use shaklee supplements www.shaklee.net/mjdevor

Hi Jeanette, I've tried a lot of different products and approaches to colon cleansing, but the one I would highly recommend is simply to take a probiotic every day. I take Culturelle. It regulates the bowel, cleans the intestines of toxins, and promotes a healthyier immune system. You will be able to move your bowels in a safe, healthy way everyday. Try it! Cris L.

You might want to research colon cleansers on WebMD.com before trying one. From what I read, they may do more harm than good and are really not necessary. Or maybe a pharmacist at a local drugstore could give you some advice about them.

Hi J.,
I hope you went. Colonics has done wonders for me but I think you really need to have someone you are comfortable with. I have heard horror stories. Some people will try to rip you off too. It's well worth it if you find the right hydrocolon therapist. If you haven't, let me know and i'll give you info. I LOVE her and would NEVER go to anyone else! For the first time in my life, i go to the bathroom everyday, more than once and I have maintained a steady weight for 4 and a half years. My skin is also much more clear.

J.,
Good Luck!! I had been thinking about this last week, when I saw your post pop up. I had also researched Dr Natura Colonix. Please let me know how it works for you. I may go ahead and order and we can keep in touch about it.

HI J.,
I use (before I got pg) a product...don't have it with me now...I will go hunt for it for you! I take it about once a week, and it clears me out! nice!
