Dr. Ho cleansing system

Anybody have any thoughts on this or have tried it? Does it really effectively help clean out your innards/intestines?

Sorry if this has been done before but "Dr." and "Ho" are too short to run a search on.

Garbage.

Your intestine tract regenerates every 4-5 days by shedding epithelial cells from the villi. A colonoscopy reveals a smooth pink tube, unless some pre-existing disease is present. Nothing gets "lodged" or "stuck" or "built up" throughout your GI system, unless you have a bad case of diverticulosis, which is an outpouching of the colon.

Eat your damn vegetables and tell Dr. Ho to go fuck himself.

Remember all those "cleanse" threads that popped up a year ago?

All the sites selling cleanses that made you poop ancient rope-looking shits that were supposedly stuck in the bowel.

The idea of waste suck in the body having only negative effects sucks with possible parasites and disease and the fact that flushing it would be cutting useless weight off a fighter.

Did we sum all that "crap" up with out collective opinion? I think that if it was so good, it would be uber-popular and we'd know well about it.

I would never trust anyone named "Ho" anywhere near my ass.

I think it probably acts as a laxitive or something. I'm not entirel sure about the 'cleansing' stuff myself. Penn and Teller did a 'Bullshit' special on that type of thing, debunking people's assumptions about 'toxins' in a lot of cases. Although theirs was more focused on things taken up the caboose, I think some criticism of dietary cleansing programs can be seen too.

I'm not chemist or doctor though so I can't go and condemn it, just plead ignorance of knowing what it does and if it works and if its healthy.

To be honest, I find the most appealing things about those commercials is that 'Serenity Tea'. I like trying different teas so I really got wondering how it tastes.
