    Waste of money and time.

    No offense. You may lose a little weight after a cleansing, but it will come right back. Your colon does a good job of cleaning itself.

    Hi. In actuality, cleansing can help with weight-loss especially if you do it on a regular basis 3-4 times a year. Maintaining any kind of cleanse is the key to permanent weight-loss from it.

    Good luck!

    If you are backed up, take it. Not to be used for weight loss. Talk to your doctor. He/she will tell you no.

    I have done the colon cleanse and honestly thought you stayed home for the weekend and "blasted" everything out, not the case, it's a month long process. It took too long to notice an instant weight loss. But it is recommended to do a colon cleanse 3-4 times a year.

    That's just nuts. We were created/evolved to take care of that stuff just fine naturally.

    I am ignorant, is this something you buy at the store? Is this an enema that you are doing on yourself? 3-4 times a year, I can understand but I would imagine that it is quite uncomfortalbe!!!!!!!!!!!
    Excuse me while I clean my ___ out, be back in a few hours, ha, ha!
