Colon Cleanse - Any tips?

Cleanse Smart by Renew life is Awesome... its a 30 day cleanse.. i do it approx 2- 3 times a year. First time i did it i lost 5-8 pounds. and its cheap!

Where do you get it?

I would avoid stuff like "colon cleansing". This stuff is pretty much all a big giant snake oil selling scam. The body cleanses itself for the most part (that's what your liver and kidneys and other organs are for after all). The colon doesn't keep stuff around for ages and ages that's just not how the body, wonderful thing that it is, works. There's nothing "accumulated" in there, and there's no sh** in you other than your last meal or two- and there definitely isn't enough to "make your stomach bulge." If that was truly the case you'd be in the hospital right now because it would have made you deathly ill. If you are truly worried, don't try snake oil, go to a doctor and get a checkup done.

Best advice? Eat healthy, drink lots of water, exercise. Or in the immortal words of Michael Pollan- "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly greens." Oh, and ignore snake oil!

Try a natural cleanse. Mix fresh lemon juice with lukewarm water and drink 1-3X's daily.
The digestive qualities of lemon juice help symptoms of indigestion such as heartburn, bloating and belching. By drinking lemon juice regularly, the bowels are aided in eliminating waste. Google it.

I had issues with regularity and the best advice I have is to not cheat your water intake and opt for some high fiber foods. Don't up the fiber without making sure you get your water, though -- it won't help!

Try natural before you try anything as harsh sounding as a colon cleanse.

Girls don't poop.

If you need to move things along google salt water flush. I have done it and it will clean you out. One word of warning it took a while to get through and once it did be close to the facilities.

Girls don't poop.

OMG! You revealed the sacred girl secret!

I usually take Magnesium supplements if i'm having a little difficulty. If I'm really having trouble, I drink Dieter's tea with lemon. I've heard doctors talk on the radio and say that colon cleanses are a waste of money. The body naturally cleanses itself out.

Eat more fibar and drink plenty of water.

OMG! You revealed the sacred girl secret!

I thought every knew pretty girls don't poop!!!!

Bummer. I always thought I was a pretty girl. :sad:

Shhhh, if you don't admit it, they will never know...

DON'T DO IT !!!!!! Your body will do what is necessary if you feed it right! Colon Cleanses have NO medical / health benefits and can be dangerous!!!! Soo not worth the risk to have the scale show a loss (for a few days).

Can you open your food diary so we can see how you eat?

as someone who has been known to go extended periods between movements, I can say with absolute certainty that there are medical benefits to an accessional cleanse. there are two different methods that I like to use depending on the severity of my pooch at the time.

this one is the quickest, but your not going to want to stray to far from a bathroom. start by taking miralax once a day for a couple of days before. after about three days take 3 dolcalax tablets right before bed. by the following night you'll be as clean as your ever going to be.

the second takes a bit of time, but I think it does a better job, and it is a lot more comfortable. look up the cabbage soup diet, don't worry about everything else just the soup. I basically go on a liquid diet, with the cabbage soup as the base, as well as fruit juice tomato juice, and I do eat some bread, pasta, and rice, but mostly the liquids. I do this for about a week, or until the pooch goes away, and I also take the miralax once a day.
