Besides the normally very expensive(insurance usually doesn't cover it) colon cleanings done at a medical office, has anyone found/used a pill or liquid to clean out the colon? A while ago, when I was really interested, I googled the subject and read various reviews of pills, but many seemed to not live up to their claims. Anyone have a good experience yet with anything? |

Colon cleansing doesn't do anything and is basically a scam. |

If you want to get cleaned out really well, drink some mineral oil.

these colon cleansers do harm to the large and small bowels.
whole foods, raw foods, as provided be your creator, are the answer.

It's not even "too much Old Testament", in the Old Testament God is compassionate, shows mercy, is patient and long-suffering. Consider the lesson we learn from Jonah, or the word delivered to Ezekiel that God does not desire the death of the wicked, that God takes no pleasure or joy in the destruction of the wicked by desires that that the wicked repent and change their ways so they might live and have life. God has always been a merciful, compassionate, kind and patient God who has no desire for the destruction of the wicked, who has loving-kindness for the sinner and for the wicked person to change their ways and truly live and have life. -CryptoLutheran |

very good food for feeding the bacteria in the colon. Low fat yogurt also
with live bacteria is good too. Also veggies and fruits which contain
insoluble fiber all help keep the colon clean. |
