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 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 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 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 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.
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.
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 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 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 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 f tn I believe that a colon cleanse will only make you feel better if you are slightly constipated or because of the placebo effect (you want something to work so it does). Other than that, they do nothing. There are many dangers of colon cleanses like dehydration and other things that are not good. This is also the opinion regarded by most doctors.
Avatar f tn We are taught all of this to protect OURSELVES not the patient, therefore a nurse is not going to put him/herself at risk by reusing equipment. It doesn't save time, there would be NO benefit for a nurse to reuse a needle. NOT a risk...no one had ever been infected with HIV as a result of getting their blood drawn, an IV inserted, etc. Seek some professional help.
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.
Avatar n tn I agree with Ewuramajoan, That you should get this checked and see a neurologist soon. Better to be sure and not self treat (including a parasite). Sometimes a colon cleanse will not get all the parasite if you had one as it depends on the parasite and if it has gone beyond the colon (I'm a microbiologist not that I'm always right about these things). The combination of symptoms you have concerns me. Please go to a doctor.
Avatar m tn Anything that gets the colon working can cause colon pains, and cramping. When the colon is active is when most people with IBS find issues with pain, cramping, urgency,etc. Thats why early mornings are troublesome for IBS sufferers. The colon wakes up when you do and starts to go to work. When you do a cleanse like that, you are having your colon work doubletime, therefore it could cause it to start creating pain, cramps or spasms.
425312 tn?1279966179 my sister got a system cleanse to clean the colon and detoxify the liver will that be too much on me?
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.
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).
Avatar n tn s opinion on their idea of colon health when your cyst is causing discomfort. My doctor suggested a mild colon cleanse (GNC product), and as odd as it seems, it did ease some of the discomfort. Also, drink a lot of water. Again, odd but it seemed to help remove some of the bloating as my body expelled more toxins. Just be sure you are near the ladies room. I peed more than a dozen times a day! Those are odd ways to treat things but it made me feel less powerless over my pain.
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 took a bath and rubbed my testicles gently, as I was washing I noticed a white thing clinging to the edge of the spots where the white flakes were and removed it. After bathing and drying myself I once again looked at the left side of my testicles. The white stuff was gone, but there are spots that are very much noticable. They are pink-ish, smooth and it looks wet but there no liquid whatsoever. The spots are not that big, they are very small.
