I started using a cleansing product recommended by an herbalist that I get my vitamins from. The first few days all I noticed was increased bowel movements. Now I am sick to my stomach, cramping, diarrhea. Are these possible side affects? I thought maybe just a bug, but we are going on day three of these intermittent symptoms and I have never had a flu bug go that long. Is it possible that these supplements have flushed out the helpful bacteria in my colon? And yes I did stop taking!!!

Ok, here I go. I have been taking it for 7 days, and I have released some of those demons from the website. If you click on the photos http://www.drnatura.com/picture_gallery.html you will see what I am talking about.

I also though had some Yellow Corn looking things in there… I know what corn is, it was NOT corn. I called them, they said it could be Liver Flukes (never heard of those till today)?

My main worry is… this could be a parlor trick. It reminds me of elementary where you mixed water and powder and made a volcano.

This time, the Volcano is your Colon (lol).

Anyway… I can control the bowel movements, its not that bad. I am pooping a LOT better, cleaner, and those crazy things (big yellow eggs of satan, and some poop rope object)

I would post a picture but I am sure Yahoo would block this post.

Any one out there (preferably a doctor) ever use this product? maybe examine the demon poop that comes from it? Is this something that was there? Or is this really just a byproduct of the crap (no pun intended) they are selling me.

PS: if you say something about Bentonite, YOU ARE WRONG… I already did plenty of research and I am sure I know more then most doctors now… I am looking for someone that actually knows what I am talking about.

Thank you!

Clogged digestive system?




So heres a little background… I realized I probably have a problem with Candida (yeast) overgrowth due to antiobiotic use a while back, sinus infections, and a diet full of dairy, meat, and processed foods instead of fruits and vegetables (and low fiber).

Before I started any type of treatment for this, my "stools" were irregular, maybe 2 times in 3 days, and I would often either be constipated or have really loose, smelly diahrrea (sorry).

I first started on the Candida Diet and only ate berries, meat, vegetables, and everything else in extreme moderation (except for some alcohol on the weekends). I then started using Candida Clear by NOW, its a blend of potent anti-fungal herbs which got pretty good reviews. I started taking this to help with the Candida, and thought I would also do a colon cleanse concurrently to make sure there wasnt some kind of blockage making my candida worse. I used Oxy-Powder, which uses ozone (oxygen) to cleanse the digestive system. I think my bowels might really be screwed up though, because when I took the recomended dose (4) I didnt get much results. Once I upped it to 8 pills, I got the effects I had expected but while it said to expect 3 bowel movements a day, I still only got 1 or 2. I also take Dr. Ohhira’s probiotics to help replenish the good baceria. Together, this approach led me to lose a lot of waterweight and my acne got MUCH better over a week or two.

After doing this for a while I decided to use a psyllium (fiber) based colon cleanser to see if it would work better than the oxy-powder. I am still taking Candida-fighting pills but now taking psyllium twice a day. I expected this to increase my bowel movements and maybe even pull out a few "ropes" like you see from Colonix (psyllium is the main ingredient in the system). None of this has happened - since I started taking the psyllium I have felt bloated around my midsection and clogged up. I’ve gone back to only having bowel movements of about 2 in 3 days.

Now my main question is: could the candida be why I am so clogged up? Could it be from eating too much meats? What should I do now? I just want to clear out my gut, and now I’m afraid the psyllium I thought would help is lodged in there and might not come out… what supplements could help?

Can one suddenly develop irritable bowel syndrome?




I’m a 26 year-old male and live a healthy lifestyle- I workout 3 times a week, drink lots of water, and I absolutely love fruits. For the past couple of days I’ve been suffering from painful bowel movements, added with constipation, bloating, and mild abdominal pain. At first I thought it was the creatine that I recently started taking, but it’s been about 4 days now and I don’t see any improvment even after stopping. Please help!

I was told I have ibs about 2.5yrs ago but the only symptom I have is urgent bowel movements nothing else. What else could be causing this? I have had most of the test done but feel we are missing something since this is the only issue that is bothersome.

I think my intestines or colon is clogged?




For the last year, I have like 3-4 bowel movements per day, but they all seem unfinished, like I still feel like I have more in me, but it doesn’t come out, until I get the urge a few hours later. Yesterday I took a bunch of colon cleanse, and so far I am having a bowel movement every 5 or 6 hours, but not dhiarrea, and it still feels unfinished. I thought with colon cleansers you just have one big dhiarrea movement, but that’s not the case with me. If my system is clogged, what do I do to fix it? Do enemas work? Thank you for your time.

My husband has had what I believe from his description to be intestinal cramping for about a week now. He claims to be able to make bowel movements with no abnormality, but just slight discomfort. He has no diarreah, constipation, or any other problems. He just complains about this cramp that seems to come and go, and it is beginning to interfere with his work. If anyone has any idea what this is or what we should do I’d appreciate the help. Thanks.

101FM WRIF in Detroit, Drew and Mike in the morning?




Drew and Mike used to talk abou this guy on their moring show. They called him "DR. POO" or something like that. He was/is a real doctor. The guy was selling some kind of colon/digestive tract cleanser that was supposed to produce 1-2 ft. long bowel movements. Anyone know the name of the product? I haven’t listened to them in ages, I can’t get them where I live now.

Serious question. What WAS the name of the colon cleansing product?

Lemonade diet… ouch?




alright , so I read about the master cleanser, aka lemonade diet.
I’d like to try it ,
but frankly… Im scared.

It’s kind of a funny question , but honestly scared the crap out of me.. no pun intended…

While you’re on the diet/cleanser.. are you bowel movements really as scarey as some website describe ; cholesterol chunk filled tar?

yeah , I just re-read that and grossed myself out , but whatever.
:D

I heard that colon cleansers not only help you cleanse your system but also you may lose a little bit of weight in your belly, I for one know that i need it for cleansing, i dont have regular bowel movements usually twice - three times a week for me, i know if i take a cleansing system i can get all this junk out of my system, i would like to know if anyone has tried any of this methods and does it work and have you lost weight! Please dont give a lecture on eating right and seeing a doctor, i just want to know about what is the good brand to use and if it works.
