Do you believe in colon cleansing?

[biteme]

On the site quackery.com, it says that it's bullshit (no pun intended). But, on this infomercial it does seem to make sense. Did John Wayne really have 43 pounds of shit stuck to his colon wall found in his autopsy? Proponents claim that there is impacted fecal matter stuck to our intestines and that we are supposed to take big thick shits. Slender shits are an indication of impacted colon syndrome. Hmmmmmmmm

It is complete quackery, I don't cleanse my colon and I am quite pleased and sometimes amused with the quality and quantity of my poo.

 

[Smurfy]

it's hogwash.

I'm not certain. I started to do one once, but found it so unpleasant that I quit about three days into it. I've been constipated my entire life, though, so it would probably be more of a benefit for me than it might be for people who are more regular

Really, those expensive kits they sell are quakery though. All they really contain are Psyllium (which is a natural fiber) and senna tea or caplets (which is an herbal laxative). You can buy both of those in the drug store for 1/10 of what they charge you for the kits.

A complete waste of money. Eat a diet high in fiber and you'll be fine. Have a colonoscopy when you're 50 to make sure you don't have any pre-cancerous polyps. They'll give you a cleaning beforehand. Nothing like a little Golytely to clean you out. Unlike the naturopathic crap, Golytely starts working in 30 minutes.

Great, as if i'm not shitting large enough piles of dung...

I would have to install handles or grab irons on the walls to hold myself down during each take-off. ;-)

we're also not supposed to sit down when dumping, naturally we are supposed to squat....I've heard that you have better shits that way.

in some countries squat toilets are common i guess
