Hi sunny,

i've tried the colonix as has my whole family and circle of friends. You would not believe the amount of stuff we all ended up passing. Yuck!!! But I have to say how absolutely incredible we all feel. So much more energy and the weight loss was a nice bonus that I wasn't expecting at all. It's definitely the best investment i've made in a long time.

Could you all explain this better to me. I dont understand--seeing the things you have passed???

Is it a detox, antioxident??

Just curious.
Can you take while pregnant??

Everyone can find out much information about the "colonix" cleansing process at Drnatura.Com and there are so many testimonials there, but since they are obviously only going to post the most positive testimonials (assuming they are even all true) I was hoping to talk to people who have used it before and see what they thought. I'm 26yrs old and have been struggling with ibs symptoms since I was in late elementary school. I tried all types of diets and had tests done when I was younger and no one could help me (this was before so much was known about ibs). I've had low energy for as long as I can remember and would be thrilled to see even a slight improvement on bloating, pain, and chronic fatigue. I'm not worried about the cost of the product, I guess im just worried about taking something when I don't know anyone else who has taken it and I don't know what it will do to me. Anyone can put any testimonials on a website, but if I could just talk to some real people I think I would be convinced! Thanks to anyone who can help me!

Yes, I know what you mean I have same symptoms since child birth, last one 19 years ago. I feel like I am going to pass out from intestional pains, after bowel movement im fine. Finally in 2003 stomache really swollen, and went to drs several times all tests fine except they say I had an inflamation in my body (prolly in my intestines) very dangerous and they never treated it, for they didnt find out what it was. Finally symptoms went away-- but they come and go. I never feel finished when I go to the bathroom anymore, even if I go every day. I do also have hiatial hernia causes problems too. Love to finally feel finished if you know what I mean. I would love to find something that would help detox my intestines or a good antioxident that would clean me out.

Can you do this while pregnant?? Do you know

I've noticed on the website that it does say that you are not supposed to do this while you are pregnant.

Sorry to hear about your pain. If you are pregnant, at least you know that there may be something out there that can help you once you've had your baby!

(assuming it really is as good as it sounds from all those testimonials on the website)

I ended up here doing a search for any info, real experiences, articles, whatever for this product, I too find it a little frustrating when 90% of information on the site is testimonial by supposed customers, particularly the biochemist who took samples to his lab to view under a microscope and saw mysterious worm looking things with different shapes and "things that looked like eggs." didn't really write like you would expect someone with a phd in biochemistry to write, and for somone who spent years of school looking under a microscope not to even attempt to classify or guess at what he was seeing kinda really drove the nail in the coffin of skeptism for me.

However, colon cleansing is not really accepted as a viable or valuable part of personal health in our mainstram western medicine, so clinical tests, scientific research and otherwise tools we usually use for validating treatments and therapies are not readily available and very few to begin with, so if you want to try a different approach maybe in this area of healing at this time other people's experiences are the best souce of information next to our own personal experience.

Anyway i'm convinced the testimonials are contrived, but i'm not sure that means the product doesn't work or at least may be beneficial for a cleansing program, psyllium at least I know is a commonly used herb for digestive cleansing which is one thing that's in the cleanser, so anyway i'm going to try one kit and i'll post how it does for me here, hope that it proves helpful and that everyone eventually finds something good for them.

Thank you! That is truly exactly how I feel! I wish you lots of luck and am excited to hear about your results! One of my best friends is thinking of trying it, if she does, i'll let everyone know how it goes. If it goes well, i'm sure I will also end up trying it and will be happy to let everyone know how it goes!

Well I read on in my quest to find a good detox program and setled on ultimate cleanse by nature's secret, 30 bucks at gnc. It's similar to colonix only it has less psyllium husk and an extra peristalsis stimulant cascara sagrada, it's a little more well rounded in terms of an internal cleanse, and i'm pairing it with a slightly stricter diet than I normally adhere to and less food intake overall plus lots of water and herbal tea. So far, day 4 and no cool things floating around in the bowl, but i'm beginning to regain a little energy and retain it throughout the day and i'm sleeping a little better as well. Whether this can be attributed to the herbal cocktail, the change in diet, my imagination or some combination of the three I can't say, but I definitely feel a little better.

So, part of the reason I opted for something other than colonix is I really felt in reading about several different products that this should ultimately have the same benefits as well as a few others, which is why I hope my experience can prove useful to someone, and as I looked into it I really feel that the main effect of colonix is produced by a massive amount of psyllium husk which is a soluble fiber, and when mixed with water soluble fibers become sticky and gelatinous which is exactly what those pictures looked like on the website, intending for us to think it's some layer of gunk being removed from the intestinal wall. I could be wrong, that's just the feeling I got, and if you want to try, any health food store or gnc will sell you a giant container of psyllium husk in powder form that should do the same thing, whether it is a wall of gunk or just the soluble fiber and water, and for less money. I'm certainly not trying to disredit a product i've never tried, or disuade anyone else from trying, I just wanted to share my thoughts about it and explain my choice for another. So i'll let everyone know how things go with this one and if it's great then hopefully it can benefit somone else or maybe it'll mean colonix is worth a try since they are somewhat similar, but either way we all have to find what works best for our own unique body and i'm stoked to find places like this where we can help one another find out what does work.

The colonix from dr natura with fiber mix, paranil, and kleri tea is working fine for me so far. I've been on for 10 days. The first few days I felt a little weak, but that has passed. Never had problem with regularity, just wanted to try a cleansing program. Certainly recommend drinking lots of water. It seems to make things work well. Have not passed anything unusual yet, but it's only been 10 days. Starting to feel a little better with more energy, and my stomach feels emptier than usual, but I notice that I don't get hunger pangs, and it takes less food to cap my appetite. I'll keep progress posted.

It is a good stuff and its work just fine. I have seen a lot of good inputs on this. Also I have stumbled across on one great site www.Askshelley.Com , she is a professional educator, and the site is dealing with bowel management, apart form other things. Worth’s of checking out.

2 months on now. Have expelled mucoid plaque in the last week. Have lost 19 lbs. Losing weight was not my intent. Nice benefit though. Does not cause me more frequent bowel movements, just more complete. Feeling much, much better. Will stay on 1 more month for the recommended 3 months. So far, so good. Will keep posted.

Kewl--i will try after baby is born. I will save that to my favorites for sure.

Hi everyone
i started using colonix today and i'm excited about cleaning out my system. I am 28 and I have trouble going to the bathroom like I should so I know that this would be perfect for me. My mother works for a doctor and he encouraged us (my mom and i) to try this. I will let you all know my results.

Day 1
i have somewhat of a headache but I feel fine. I haven't gone to the restroom yet but I know that I will soon.

So far I haven't had any significant waste expelled but on yesterday more came out than usual. I only go to the restroom once a day; I was hoping that it would be more. I'll keep you'll updated.

I've been on colonix for a week now. I didn't know anyone who had ever used it. I have had trouble with constipation for many years, but had not yet resorted to taking laxatives. I knew that since I only had bm's 2 or 3 times week, I had to have buildup inside of me. I'm 36 years old and have an average weight, but I don't have much fiber in my diet.

I saw results the very next day. I had the largest bm i'd ever had. I could tell by the different colors and textures that some of it had probably been in me for a while. I continue to have a good bm each morning like clockwork. I would recommend being sure you have easy access to a bathroom when you're on this because when the urge hits you, i'm not sure how long you could hold out. On the third day, I had some intestinal looking stool which freaked me out a little. I believe that maybe it's feces that was in the creases of my colon. That's only a theory though. I haven't seen anything alive though.

Now that i've started phase two of the process (which begins after 5 days), i've noticed the feeling of thinking I need to go during the day, but i'm unable to. I don't know whether it's because all the stuff is building up inside of me and just isn't ready or what. I do continue to go in the morning though.

I'll try to keep you up-to-date on my progress. I can't really say that i'm feeling a lot better yet. Even though i'm going everyday, the fact that I feel like I need to go during the day and can't is a little frustrating. I've only been on it a week though, so i'm far from being finished. I have high expectations on the end result. :)

It sounds like you're getting pretty good results. Make sure you're drinking enough water throughout the day. That should help move things along. Also, when you feel the urge, go! Don't wait too long as the urge could pass.

You will probably not start feeling a big difference for another week or two. You're at the stage where your body is trying to cope with the toxins it's releasing. Once you overcome the hump, you should start feeling better.

Keep us posted!!!

I must admit that I was beginning to get frustrated, but after 3 or 4 days it seems to have straightened itself out. I'm starting to feel better now too. I've carried this feeling of being weightened down for a long time. It's hard to explain. I haven't lost any weight yet, but still feel lighter. It amazes me that so much is coming out of me. It also relieves me that i'm able to get all of that old stuff out.

I sent an email to the customer service department about the problems I was having and received a reply within 3 days. I'm going to begin taking probiotics to increase my good bacteria. It sounds like some people don't need this, but I probably do. They emphasized being sure to follow the fiber drink with 8 ounces of water. More or less than 8 ounces at that point can prevent the fiber drink from working like it's supposed to.

My only problem at this point is that some mornings it's hard to get those 4 capsules to go down easily. I've never been a big water drinker. Especially in the mornings. Then to have to wash down 4 capsules along with it is making me look forward to the day when i've completed my cleansing.

I'll be back in touch...

Hi,

i have been on the colonix cleanse for 21 days now. For the first week or so I was very fatigued and had mild headaches which dissapated after about 2 weeks in. I passed my share of odd looking stools but at this point they have been fairly normal looking although tend to be quite large.

Since starting the program I still feel fatigue but not sure if it is more or less then I felt before I began the program. I do notice I am less gassy then before and I am hoping that I will see more results.

I still have another month to do after this one so plenty of time to go before I have completed a 2 month cleanse.

Some people say they feel way more energy etc.. I definitely haven't had any major postive reaction that would be worthwhile mentioning.

One thing worth noting is that I am alot more regular and the ease to which stools pass has become much more comfortable (hence the added fibre from the colonix powder).

All in all it has been an easy program to do and I will post if any positive changes occur.

Good luck..

Eh, i'm still pretty skeptical of the program. On the one hand, you need bacteria in your intestines to help you digest. About 10 pounds of your intestines is bacteria. If you remove them all that can't be good...

On the other hand, it seems to me like people with my problem (too much flatulence) would need to do something to this effect in order to solve the problem. *sigh* you just never know with drug companies. :?

Keep us posted...
