Avatar f tn Some of the colon cleanses can be very harsh and hard on your body. In my opinion if you're healthy and having regular bowel movements you don't need a cleanse. Aloe Vera juice is great for you. I drink it alot myself. Raw fruit and vegetables are also great for keeping our bowels clean and keeping us regular.
Avatar n tn I don't even know how to select best answer. I wouldn't worry about it -- nobody pays attention to it anyway. As to your question, you've already done what I would consider an unsafe colon cleanse, and I don't know why you did it. I tried to make that clear.
Avatar f tn I am currently taking Zoloft for depression and anxiety and am preparing to do a detox colon cleanse. Is it safe to do a all natural herbal detox colon cleanse while on Zoloft as long as the Zoloft is taken a few hours apart from all other supplements?
Avatar n tn We virtually eat the same foods and I almost never smell. I thought maybe he needs a colon cleanse? What should he do so that every time he passes gas, or has a bowel movement we don't have to run to the other room!!?
Avatar f tn Thanks Mike, I'd given up hope about getting any feedback on my question. It looks like I can check out ACOG Colon Cleanse at a local GNC. I'll have to give it a shot because the Amitiza along with daily fiber capsules and colace aren't doing the trick.
Avatar f tn This cleanse is meant to be used as a juice fast and laxative-based colon detox. You want to use it differently. I have no idea if this works if you do it the way they suggest, though I can almost guarantee the cleanse has nothing to do with weight loss -- if you stop eating of course you'll lose weight. When you start eating again, unless you change your diet, you'll gain the weight back. Using laxatives can be helpful in a short-term fast, but they can also be tricky.
685562 tn?1447155231 I there....first rule of thumb is to always do a colon cleanse first. If you would like to do some gentle cleanses, I would suggest going to your local health food store and looking for the Renew Life cleanses. They will walk you through the steps of which ones to do first. They are nice and gentle. Then I would suggest the big guns like Dr Natura....it is a colon and parasite cleanse. I have done this one twice! Yes there are many many kinds out there.....
Avatar f tn Is it true that it is normal to have them. I saw that you can do a colon cleanse to get rid of them, but if we need them, should I do a cleanse. Also I have IBS so I don't know if a cleanse would be a good idea.
Avatar n tn In prior threads on this topic people who have their heads around this topic have discussed that all matter of flora (maybe fauna too) are cleased in the process and that at leaset the flora part in the plumbing is fairly important. I'll leave it to Goofy to discuss the fauna part.
Avatar n tn I have had extremely painfull bowel movements and massive cramps for the past 4 weeks. The cramps don't start until I have a bowel movement. I will have to go at least 4 times and the cramps will continue for at least 3 hours. It is not diarreha, it is soft. The cramps are killing me. I had a colonoscopy done and it did not show anything expect for two small polyps that were removed. I wish I could get some relief from these awful cramps.
Avatar m tn Hi Ack, I just read your entry and really feel for you. The absence of understanding, particularly from so-called doctors, whose job it is (one might think) to at least try and find out what is the problem, is frustrating and sad. Your situation does sound very, very unpleasant indeed. I'm not an expert, but have done so much research over the years that I connect some dots (because I have a doctor like yours).
Avatar f tn Hi, I am a 40 yr old who had a 8 inches of my colon removed due to a punctured colon during a routine colonoscopy done the beginning of April 2009. I have the same exact problem as you. My swelling seems to be more focused above my belly button and more on the left side. The swelling is somewhat harder than my normal "belly fat" (I am about 15 lbs overweight). I had a cat scan to see if I had infection or a pocket of fluid but it came back normal.
Avatar m tn s all natural and contains NO harsh laxatives making it something you can take during the day without the worry of a rush to the bathroom. I just want to let every body who is suffering from the symptoms of constipation, IBS, Diabetes, High colesterol, high blood pressure, over weight, low metabolism (just to name a few) ACOG Colon Cleanse is a great product to investigate.
Avatar n tn it is all over the web but I am very skeptical of it because there are all these stories out there but they are all the same just different names? they say to take the Accai Berry supplement in the morning and at night and then the Colon Cleanse supplement at night? they say they are shedding like 30 pounds in a month to a month and a half. Anyone? thanks!
Avatar f tn A colon cleanse is going to do nothing to help you with this problem. If you're having problems at the lower esophageal sphincter you need to stay on the nexium, or find another PPI that seems to do a better job - not each med works well for each person. It's trial and error. In addition, you should be following a GERD-friendly diet. You can find a representative example at gicare.com.
Avatar f tn Most of the colon cleanse products contain some form of senna or other product that is a anthraquinone-like compound. Anthraquinone is a stimulant laxative which works by irritating the lining of the colon to promote 'emptying.' I really don't think with diverticulitis a stimulant laxative would be indicated. Check with your doc.
Avatar n tn After doing a colon cleanse I developed back pain it's more like a frying feeling right where the sigmoid colon is located. If I don't take a cleanse pill I get constipated now and when I use the pill I get this feeling of frying in my back. Now I feel like my insides ovaries and uterus is going to fall out. I have a history of ovarian cyst the simple cyst I get them all the time the bust and cause this frying feeling to but in lower stomach.
Avatar f tn So if you want to cleanse for health purposes, what part of the body, and if you want to cleanse for dieting, not a great idea.

189269 tn?1189755825 Cleans the liver and colon, purifys the blood, kills parasites, strengthens immunity, improves overall digestion, strengthens the immune system, makes the skin more emollient and flexible, clears the eyes, tones the digestive system and provides an overall tonic effect on the body. This is not habit-forming. You will use less over time. Best results when used with Truman's Special Fiber (3350) or Trumans Fiber (3349).
569755 tn?1220872102 But this is considered the number one colon cleansing program in the world, and is very safe. There is a FAQ page on the site that answers the majority of questions regarding the cleanse if you would like to inquire further. Anyway, I hope you find a cure, whether it be this program or not (although I personally recommend it), and the link is posted below. See ya! drnatura.
5766249 tn?1375776295 Some foods meet the requirement but not all. Fiber rich foods like apples, African mango are both weight and colon issues. As already discussed above fiber foods help a lot. Also, the pro-biotic foods, broccoli, sweet potatoes, tuna and fruits like banana, oranges, pear can be much useful to tackle and solve the colon problems.
1756970 tn?1314376733 i am starting or have started a month long one through a supplement that i take 2 in the morning for the full body cleanse and than two supps for the colon cleanse at night time. i am wondering if someone can tell me how does one know if its working(aside from using the BR alot) and two how they felt during it?
Avatar m tn I am getting to do the liver cleanse which you do after the colon is healthy. Detox is very difficult, many emotions from childhood came up for me, it was the end of my suffering to well worth it. A good website to check out is www.************. Try to inspire your wife to cleanse, take colon cleaning herbs and go for colonics, she will never look back.
