First, let me say that the people who are attacking people for having questions and concerns about this product are jerks. This is our health we're talking about here, and if you don't have serious reservations about putting anything into your body, you're nuts. You can't fault someone for trying to weigh all sides.
That being said, I am trying the colonix program (and also taking the probiotics). I'm on day five right now. I'm sticking through a couple more days at least, but right now, i'm not all that happy.
I was not suffering from constipation before I started. I've suffered with ibs since I was just a little kid (i'm 25 now), but it was recently under pretty good control.
I'll admit it was the fear factor (all those horrid testimonials about tapeworms and roundworms and god knows what else) got me to start the product. I figured that it couldn't hurt, considering my history of intestinal difficulties.
As i've said, i'm only on my 5th day, but so far, my bms have been less healthy than usual. Very loose and fibrous. Generally not great.
Day 3-4 I had a headache, which they claim is detox.
I've only been steeping the tea for like 1-1.5 minutes, as i'm hesitant to get myself into a laxative disaster situation at work or something, but still, the bms seem looser and looser.
Today, on day 5, I woke up with really awful cramping, and I had several bouts of urgent, loose bms. Those subsided after an hour or so, but it's been about 10 hours now, and my abdomen is still very cramped, very bloated, and i'm really uncomfortable.
I'll stick with the system for another day or so, but if this cramping and abnormal bm stuff keeps up, i'm going to send it all back for a refund.
If things change for the better, i'll let you guys know.
