Colonix colon cleansing, nasty!

Pretty graphic, don't look if you're squeamish! Find it pretty amazing/sickening that stuff like this could be inside our bodies without even knowing

Colon cleansing is bullshit. Colon cleansing kits are mostly made up of psyllium husks (same main ingredient as ****mucil). Psyllium husks, when in contact with water, gelatinize. You can test this yourself by putting a bunch of ****mucil or psyllium husks in a glass with maybe an inch of water to cover. The ****mucil/psyllium husks will form a gelatinous mass at the bottom of the container.

Soooo, what you're basically seeing in all those colon cleansing pics is a jello mold made of poop, that takes its shape in your colon. While there's nothing all that bad about this, a poop jello mold that you shit out is not even vaguely related to "intestinal plaque", parasites, or any of that other bullshit.

Word. Nice post and explanation.

It never fails to amaze me how potentially "smart" people fall into this trap. There's a woman at my gym who has a kinesiology degree, yet her "Naturopath" has her on a all-juice diet, is blowing water up her colon, and I'm sure the psyllium in next. This damn girl nearly passed out the other night. WTF? I realize Kinesiology isn't a nutrition-based degree, but fuck, c'mon.

Now, here's the real question: Would Chuck Norris do a colon cleanse?



'Nuff said.

Man that shit is nasty. WTF has he been eating his whole 27 years of his life for it to be that bad? Cheesus!!

Here's a short story. My mom works with Alzheimer patients and some old man died a little while ago from colon cancer. When they did the autopsy, they found about 20 or 20+lbs of built up shit in his friggin colon. NASTY!

I agree. My buddy bought a 3 pack of colon blow and wanted me to try it out. I had a weekend with absolutely nothing to do so I decided to give it a shot. The results were mediocre at best.

I did the hardcore method where you do not eat any food for 24hrs. I am pretty regular already so I wasn't expecting all that much. I took my first dose with dinner like the package said. The 2nd dose was around 11am the next morning and the final was around 6pm that night with a meal. I only crapped twice during this process and both times were a normal amount of time after a meal. So basically I only crapped out what I put in, nothing more and nothing else.

I did feel terrible for a full day and a half with terrible head aches. I also made the mistake of putting the powder in water while watching tv. I forgot about it for about 5 min. When I finally remembered and took a sip all of the shell crap had expanded and made it freaking disgusting to drink. I had to spoon it down....ugh.

So for me I give colon blow a 3 out of 10. I felt better afterwards but that is probably because I started eating real food again.

My suggestion is eat real damn food like oats, and bran and whatnot and clean yourself out naturally!
