Colonoscopy?




I have to have a colonoscopy in a week. My doctor said to purchase a bowel cleanser from my local drugstore. Can anyone recommend a good colon cleanser that will empty my bowels? What have you taken prior to having a colonoscopy?

I know lot of people are going to say.. Go work out stop being lazy.. DUH!! Some people have complications with their bowels.. They dont move daily.. Maybe 3 times a week.. which is not healthy.. Moving bowels 1 or 2x’s a day will make a person loose weight.. because they are full of crap.. literally. I dont have that problem I just want an honest answer one from a source other than a person selling the product..

I have been having a lot of problems with recurring constipation and have wanted to try a colon cleanse to get rid of the compacted stools. I just have a feeling that there are stools that are stuck in my bowels. My diet isn’t terrible but isn’t good either. Can you give an natural recommendations or commercially available colon cleanses that would loosen the compacted stools? I have seen a bunch of websites that try to see these. Which is good for this?

Should I even bother with a colon cleanse?




I have a lot of weight to lose, and I need to at least LOOK thinner in a short amount of time, for a special–and obviously unplanned–event. I’ve heard that colon cleansers can help you clean 10-20lbs of useless crap from your body and make you feel loads better, and even give you a flat stomach. Is this true?

Thing is, my bowels seem to work fine. I have loose stools a lot, but I’ve just gotten over several years of binge-eating. If I use my bowels daily anyway, is there any point buying these products?

I don’t want anything with senna or a laxative-effect because they ruin your bowels. I just want something to clean out all the junk so I can feel better, look thinner, and start afresh. Any idea which products are the best (in Australia) that I can buy in capsule/pill-form in the pharmacy? Do they even work?

Thanks for any advice!

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?

How to cure constipation?




I have had constipation for 2 years now, and I’m trying to cure it naturally, as I don’t want to become reliant on laxatives. I eat at least 25 grams of fiber a day, drink water until my pee is clear, and exercise for half an hour or more daily. Optional: If I take citrucel as a last resort, will I become reliant on it?

If it helps, I had a habit of holding it when I was younger, so do I need a colon cleanser to fully regulate my bowels, as I have lost use of my defecation reflex? I currently use Preperation-H also, so something that would cure hemorrhoids as well would be nice.

has anyone used almighty cleanse?




I just bought this colon cleanser called almighty cleanse and I was wondering if anyone out there has tried it. I am supposed to take these pills every day and drink a powder drink 5 times a day. the drink is horrible. but on the infomercial, they said it was like a roto rooter to your bowels. I want to know if it is going to be worth my 90 dollars and worth the horrible taste of the drink. Anyone who has tried this please answer me.

Ok. I’ve had diarrhea off and on for a week now. Now regular bowels at all. How long do I have to endure this before labor starts?
