Avatar n tn I remember having LOADS of different veggies and fruit. I juiced them and had to take some herbs with them. The whole thing was quite complicated, but I felt really good, had a lot of energy and my skin became super clean and radiant. There was psyllium husk and bentonite clay involved. I regularly drink a mixture of psyllium husk and bentonite clay. In the morning on an empty stomach and at night before sleeping.
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 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 m tn I had a similar condition and did 3 months of colon cleansing and my skin is 90% healed. The skin on out the outside indicate what is going on internally. During the cleanse I lost 25lbs because when you're detoxing you are not hungry. Once I understood I had a toxic colon and got into the cleansing with herbs and colonics I felt better and better each month, my energy came back. I am getting to do the liver cleanse which you do after the colon is healthy.
Avatar n tn i have high ammonia level and im trying to find ways to bring them down, preferably herbs or natural ways.
Avatar n tn No scientific evidence supports the alleged benefits of colon cleansing. The bowel itself is not dirty and barring drugs or disease, cleans itself naturally without need for assistance. Some types of colon cleansing present potential hazards also. I would suggest a gastroenterologist’s consultation and getting evaluated for different possibilities.Various other causes that need to be ruled out are over-use of stimulant laxatives (e.g.
Avatar f tn I would make an appointment with a good naturopath and they will lead you in the right direction. Colon cleansing is great, but it needs to be done correctly and most MD's just don't understand the procedure, etc.
Avatar n tn None of them has helped the symptoms except maybe the colon that stuck out seems to do that less now. I tried doing enemas, mild colon cleansing herbs, prune juice, psyllium husk powder with lots of water, and aloe vera juice. Any more suggestions?
Avatar m tn Can you provide me any kind of written proof that a special diet will not cure hep c, ie, liver cleansing and immune system boosting fruits, veggies, herbs. " ------------------------------------------- Hepatitis C is a virus. While a healthy diet is important, a special "liver cleansing and immune system boosting fruits, veggies, herbs" diet will NOT cure Hepatitis C or any other virus. There are no documented cases of Hepatitis C being cured by a cleansing diet.
Avatar n tn The natural treatment for cancer is extremely complicated, and requires a lot of discipline and courage. Herbs won't cure it; it would be a combination of cleansing, nutrients, diet, herbs, etc. If you're seriously considering this, your first stop should be the bookstore, the next a naturopath or two or three and a couple of holistic nutritionists. You might try starting by contacting the Ann Wigmore Institute in Florida.

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.
Avatar m tn I just went through a bout of this but I am getting back to normal, I was also having terrible stomach bloating but after a battery of test they said all was normal and it has passed. I just want to say though in reference to post on cleansing because over the years I have had different bowel problems (IBS). Cleanses for the colon are not a really good thing. They take away the good bacteria with the bad which can cause other problems.
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 You can also try to aid the liver without cleansing it with herbs and supplements that act as antioxidants specific to the liver, such as alpha lipoic acid and wheat grass (an absorbable source of glutathione). A liver cleanse is more likely to wash out medication. If you take a probiotic for replenishing the system it has to be taken for awhile, and should be a good multi-spectrum one from the refrigerated section of the best health food store in your area.
Avatar m tn There are different cleanses. There's blood cleansing, liver cleansing, colon cleansing, etc. For having stopped medication, the most important is liver cleansing. As to the morning puke, try taking digestive enzymes before you go to bed and drink some aloe juice -- it's often helpful because anxiety sufferers get a lot of digestive problems.
Avatar n tn Any good herbal will list the herbs used for parasite cleansing, and there are many products on the market that combine similar things. Most of them don't kill the parasites as much as drive them out of the body, but again, my fear is that nothing would satisfy you until this isn't such a psychological thing. Peace.
Avatar m tn I think it depends on the type of enema. Using enemas frequently for constipation can cause your rectum to "forget" how to have a bowel movement naturally. Using enemas for "colon cleansing", I believe is not good, because your colon doesn't need any cleansing, it does this itself.
Avatar m tn There is no natural cure I know of, but there are a lot of natural modalities for cleansing and strengthening the liver, and there are also anti-viral formulas that might help keep the virus at a less harmful level. But because you have this disease, you should work with your doctor and a naturopath or herbalist together so as not to do harm to yourself.
350945 tn?1274423121 okay ya'll, i know some folks don't like to talk about cleaning you colon out, but i'm on to something. so please just read me out. about three weeks ago i was ready to give up on my life, after all i had everything i needed to complete this task right at my finger tips. and decided that i would deal with killing myself, later on. it wasn't about the husband, kids, family or friends (uk2, chrisneedshelp, brandy, cruls, platgirl, softbaygurl, etc.
Avatar n tn Hi, everybody. I'm a male in his 20s and I have fatigue, perceived muscle weakness, soreness while doing physical activities, and sensitivity to loud noises like utensils clinking together. The fatigue and perceived muscle weakness feels like somebody would have if he had a fever. I play tennis for fun once a week to keep my body healthy, though it's a bit difficult to move around easily. Sleep doesn't cure the fatigue.
1454383 tn?1288947277 I am starting a colon cleaning diet with maximum burn and natural clean, because I had seen online at the CNN website that it really works fast. The products are cheep to buy as a trial and this is my second day on the pills. I only want to clean out my body and loose a bit of the belly flab, is this diet as safe and simple as I had heard? Has anyone on Medhelp ever tried the diet before?
Avatar f tn There are also many companies that make whole antiparasitic lines, that would include not only the antiparasitic herbs but also colon cleansing. Good luck finding what works best for you.
Avatar m tn in Chinese medicine, since the kidneys are associated with anxiety, they would work on the kidneys with herbs and acupuncture, in ayurvedic medicine they would also do cleansing and then support for the adrenals and the liver. There are many different traditions; then, 5htp, an amino acid that produces serotonin in the body, taurine, which produces GABA in the body; tyrosine, which produces serotonin and norepinephrine in the body; perhaps glycine, which produces glutamate in the body.
