For those that might be interested I'm running an on going experiment
with a colon cleansing product called Colonix. I'm not affiliated with
the product and will be posting my findings be they good or bad.

You can find the site here :

If anybody else has used this product I'd love for you to post you
experiences as well.

Cheers,

Colon cleansing is one of the biggest scams of this or the last century.
Colons don't need cleaning. Ask any real doctor.

Why don't you ask a REAL doctor, not you simple minded "practitioner"?

Most REAL doctors do it themselves.

Now once a year or every couple years is usually enough.

You really like to spout off with no knowledge.

Oh that's right.  You are right and it doesn't matter what Doctors do.  It
only matters what's in your imagination.

No Vern. It only matters what you think. Cancer patients have acidic
bodies. High dilution homeopathic remedies are not more potent than
low dilution homeopathic remedies according to homeopathic theory. And
finally colon cleanses are important for good health.

We sure are lucky to have such a knowledgeable fellow like you in this
newsgroup. You certainly are a wealth of information.

I would ask Vern to provide scientific evidence that colon cleanses
promote good health but I won't bother since he will likely produce
the same quality evidence that he produced for cancer acidic bodies
and high dilution homeopathic remedies. If Vern says it then it must
be true. No supportive evidence necessary. His say so is all we need.

Aloha,

Rich

You're projecting, vernon.  Besides, you think I don't know any
doctors?  I know plenty of them, and they'd all laugh themselves sick
at the idea that they're all out doing colon cleanses once or twice a
year.  Talk about a useless procedure...

I would say you are a young bloke in your 20s, and obviously never been
through the nutrition depleting process of pregnancy, or never been subject
to malnutrition in any great way, I would say your opinions are basicaly
MEANINGLESS.

Go and join a hobby aeroplane flying club or motor mechanics or similar.
Your opinions are MEANINGLESS in this group.

I don't agree but I don't believe in the actual mechanical process of the
hose up the rear end, although it probably works well enough. My version of
colon cleansing is where the body does it for itself. I discovered shortly
after beginning taking cellsalts that certain ones resulted in a purging
effect, mostly calcium or sodium phosphate /sulphate.
I used to always suffer from stiff muscles in the neck and back and found
out that a good dose of the sodium phosphate/sulphate combination, taken
along with a few cups of tea would bring about an emptying of the bowels.
But afterwards the headache would be gone and the muscles loosened up and
back to normal.

Therefore my conclusion is that the body knows how to clean itself out if
given the required nutrients which would be lacking.

But what annoys me about Robert is his total lack of understanding of the
alternative health topic. He seems to just repeat the old standard
anti-alternative medicine crap that is classic disinformation from the
pharmaceutical mob.

Frankly, I can't be bothered reading, letalone responding to his mindless
regurgitations.
He must be fresh out of brainwashed medical school.

"You" people?
Who doesn't want to hear the truth?
You wouldn't know an ancient supersitition if it bit you on the dick.
The word is OUTMODED.

Did I say I practiced medicine?

There are certainly substances that will cause purging.  I would have
thought you might be using magnesium.

However, that's miles from saying that these things are *necessary*
for everyone.  Or even for most people.  Or anyone other than you.

And even then, we haven't established any sort of necessity.  Now, I
frequently have a sore neck from workouts.  However, in my case,
meditation, properly applied, works wonders.  No nutritional
intervention needed, nor do I need to worry about a lot of sudden,
emergency trips to the loo.

It'd be even more likely that the body knows how to clean itself out,
period, and doesn't need much in the way of external intervention, at
least as long as you get enough fiber in your diet.

How do you know it's disinformation?  There's really no evidence that
this whole colon cleansing thing is necessary.  I mean, if it was,
humanity would have died out long ago, before the wonders of colon
cleansing were discovered.

I do use magnesium phosphate, but its usually the calcium or the sodium
phosphate/sulphate combo that does it.

Most people are calcium deficient by the time they're 65.
Most people love to have their back massaged and have knotted muscles. The
sodium phosphate/sulphate combo neutralises acid in the muscles which is the
cause of the knotting and pain.

OK, some people are different and I'm starting to get a bit like that now
myself.
However, I can remember back then when my muscles were so stiff and it was
very painful and uncomfortable.

Some people have very good bowel movements and are very regular, and some
people even get a dose of the runs here and there for no apparent reason.
Others suffer more with constipation and can drink huge amounts of water and
eat fibre like there's no tomorrow, and it will make very little difference.

Everything Robert says is based on an assumption. Read his previous post to
this last one of yours. He makes rash generalisations and assumptions as if
they're fact.

Colon cleansers are NOT laxatives except to some people.

Any half way decent colon cleanser causes one or two eliminations a day,
maximum.  Most people who benefit have a habit of only once every other or
every third day.

Most of the best colon cleansers are primarily fiber with some calming and
anti gas agents.

The need is reduced if not eliminated with a good high fiber diet.

Now whole body cleansers are good for bowel, liver and kidneys and people
who have abused their bodies can benefit greatly
Drugs, alcohol, some medications, near zero fiber and fluid.
There are only millions who fall into that category.

Calcium sulphate? Plaster of Paris?

Have you thought of taking equal quantities of calcium sulphate and magnesium sulphate at
the same time to see which wins?

There are 12 essential cellsalts. The magnesium I take is magnesium
phosphate.

That was her test, based of her experience.

She was not practicing medicine.

This IS misc health alternative.

Where people can share their experiences.

If you have a problem with that, you are in the wrong newsgroup.
