1378071 tn?1313420821 Has anyone tried the ACIA / COLON cleansing pills, drink whatever.... they say the fat just comes right off?!?! Comeon now... Does that really work, im trying to get opinons before i try it!!!
Avatar f tn Does anyone have any suggestions to jump start weight loss maybe a gentle cleanse nothing too harsh?
Avatar m tn just a question, I was at GNC today and saw a product for colon or gastro cleansing. Has anyone used these, does it work and is it healty?
Avatar f tn The colon detox programs have been proven to be shams time and time again. The body has its own mechanism for cleansing itself (bowel movements) and the detox programs contain chemicals which solidify in the gut - this is what is eventually "passed". The frequency of your bowel movements does not sound like its a problem. The constant bloating could be due to IBS or food allergies - have you seen a doctor about this?
Avatar n tn If colon cleansing was beneficial, why wouldn’t our doctors order them?
1987892 tn?1326690776 that some weight loss programs suggest - they can be expensive, and they are teaching you to substitute their product for what you are eating rather than teach you a long-term, sustainable solution to make better choices. In general, I'd prefer an approach in which you buy and prepare your own food.
1454383 tn?1288947277 If this is the Natural Clean I'm thinking of, it's for cleaning drugs out of your system to pass a drug test, not a colon cleanser. Maximum burn is a scam -- acai berry is, like all berries, high in antioxidants, but it won't help you lose weight. Real colon cleansers are based on fiber such as psyllium and some have laxatives in them, which aren't healthy, such as diet teas.
Avatar f tn Has anyone ever tried Dr. Natura's Colonix Program? There are so many detox programs out there. I'm not sure which one actually works. I have contstant bloating and my bowel movements are 0-1x a day. Thanks!
Avatar f tn This should go without saying, but animal products, whether meat or dairy, in general, are packed with fat, hormones, chemicals, cholesterol, salt, and other things that contradict weight loss and a healthy detox. One of the biggest benefits of a detox is reduction of bloating. Animals products directly cause bloating since they have salt, fats, and lactose that can fill your stomach with gas. The types of products that are NOT vegan include those with whey protein, eggs, honey, milk, or meat.
Avatar n tn Your weight will just go up and down forever. The best way to lose weight is just to eat healthy, drink a lot of water and work out. For a lasting result you should lift weights, don't eat junkfood, snacks, but just eat healtier, for example fruit, vegetables, eggs low fat quark etc. Good luck.
Avatar f tn I am just worried, because basically the only thing that I do not have in terms of polyps is bloody stools, and the only thing aside from that for cancer is weight loss, and I am sure that if I continue to not eat enough, I will lose weight..
Avatar f tn This is going to be late for you, but you should never take liver cleansers while taking medication. What you're describing is a combination colon/liver cleanse. Milk thistle and yellowdock, for example, are liver cleansers, and could theoretically wash some of the medication out of our system, as the body sees virtually all medication as toxic.
Avatar n tn There are many causes like worms in stool, depression, anorexia nervosa, AIDS, cancers especially colon cancers, drug abuse, infections and loss of appetite. Loss of appetite can again be due to certain medications, drug abuse, depression, AIDS, acute and chronic infections, cancers and hypothyroidism. Either you do not eat well or there is increased metabolism as in hyperthyroid states, HIV, cancer etc.
Avatar f tn I have had trouble maintaining my weight since menopause. I lose weight very easily now. Over the last couple of years I have had a CT, MRI, and all sorts of bloodwork. My doctor is convinced it is just one of those things. Said she has a handful of patients that have the same thing after menopause. I take effexor for hot flashes, cholesterol medication and advair. I can't imagine any of them making me lose weight so easily. I was never heavy, but watched what I ate.
Avatar n tn This type of diarrhea can be Chrons disease, miscroscopic colitis, diverticulitis and even colon cancer. You need to be evaluated right away, losing weight when not trying is not a good sign.
Avatar n tn I feel I have barely lost anything I watch my calories so carefully lost of fruit and veg only drink water, and walk about aan hour everyday. Is this normal I dont kbow what can I do to make my weight loss noticable.
Avatar f tn A cleansing diet would be rearranging your entire diet, for a short time or forever, to emphasize cleansing toxins out of your colon, liver, and other organs. The reason you read about fasting a lot is that it's the best cleansing diet there is -- you take in no toxins while your body has the opportunity to clean itself out in the meantime. How long to fast is controversial, but when first starting out it's usually recommended to do one day, then move on later to two, etc.
451343 tn?1256250831 t take over night to get myself in this position, all though it sometimes feels like it happened over night. just want to feel normal what ever that is. wondering about colon cleansing. i have some colon cleansing formula. wondering if i should wait to take them or what. i just feel like invasion of the body snatchers. i want my body back. i let those damn pills rob my body of sooooooooooo much. feeling a bit like a failure. im sure that will pass.
Avatar f tn s recommended to keep weight loss between 1-2 lbs a week. Usually in your first week that may be a little more depending on how big of a change you make, but an average of 1-2 lbs a week is ideal. I also think it's important to avoid all those easy quick weight loss things- those pills, meals, shakes, etc don't teach you how to keep this weight off. What you really need is a complete lifestyle change so you never ever get back your excess weight.
