Please HelpHi what is a good Colon Cleanse
I mean a really good one. that totally cleans you out
I want to buy something from the Vitamin Shop or GNC
Answer:Hello:
I'm a naturopathic doctor, I recommend cleansing as a way to detox the body, there are several colon cleanses on the web, most are ok, some are very good. I would not recommend GNC as the other responder says, you don't really get what you pay for in their products. I can tell you that for a colon cleanse to be effective, it must last for over a week, and you need to change your diet during the cleasne. If you would like specific help you may email me and I will give you a list of do's and don'ts.
With Regards,
Dr. James Hopkins ND
First of all you would also be getting rid of some very benificial bacteria in your cleansing. It could actually end up hurting you. For some unknown reason you feel a ned for this. Make sure mit is really needed. Talk to a doctor before you start. You haven't mentioned your gender, age , or health condition.
There is a saying that you cannot unring a bell. Which means that if you cause damage, you may not be able to repair it.
I have been to . my gp and a specialist both say dont use . you may cause damage. I am diabetic it would mees things up. They also say any loss weight would be fluid. They recomend Metamusil . I use the sugar free... Also drink more water.. I sprinlkle bran on my salids.. See your doctor .
Colon cleanse from GNC is a good one. Dont forget to take some acidophilis after your cleanse to replenish your friendly bacteria. You can also show down on 4 bowls of raisin bran. It will clean you out as well.
First of all I don't buy any of my vitamins or supplements from GNC; I don't believe you get what you pay for with their products and their sales people are not very knowledgeable. I like a product by Nature's Secret called Super Cleanse. You also need to use a acidophillus complex that takes care of the entire digestive tract not just lower intestinal tract. Make sure to get good fiber and alot of water (purified or distilled) in your diet also to help the cleansing process. Stay away from white sugar and flour they are terrible for you (neither sugar or flour are white in nature -- they are bleached in the "enrichment" process). Eat "whole grains" only .
