Colon Cleanse Reviews

Reviews

Bought the Dual Action Cleanse and hoped to get its promised benefits and results. While it improved bowel movement, I am unsure it really cleansed my colon and lymphatic system. General reviews of this product are not good and some persons mentioned health challenges after taking the product. Personally, I had no health challenge afterward, but was so concerned that I stopped taking it and dumped it in the trash. I did notice that after taking the product, I did not have bowel movements for about 3 days, which is highly unusual for me. Based on my research, the best cleansers to take are Colonix and ToxinOut, which are a bit more expensive.

I have used this product annually three times now. It does make a difference if the person using it is patient and follows the directions. GNC has even jumped on this band wagon and I could just go there and buy their version but I am confident in this brand. I have convinced others in using it and they believed once going through the process. Like other natural things, the approximate 30 day process is perfect to not shock your system. The health and improvement I gained outweighed the price.

[...] I did alot of reading before making my decision and have no regrets on day 12 of the program. I am a 30 yr. old female, I excercise regularly, I do NOT eat healthy. I have been constipated my entire life (going about once a week) and have had problems with acne the past 5 years while my skin was almost perfect growing up. With the Colonix program I have experienced the exact "results" described on the website. I have been going 2-3 xs daily without any discomfort or urgency at all. On day 12 my skin has cleared up, my hair does not come out in clumps in the shower and the fact that I am going regularly and without any difficulty is HUGE for me! I was suprised at reading that people hate the taste of the fiber mix. It smells a little like bananas & has very lttle flavor at all, I mix it with water. It is very important to drink your 2 liters of water a day, which I have. This does not disrupt your lifestyle at all, you can go to work & live life as usual. Oh, but I did give up my coffee when starting the program and that has not been easy, but I really needed to do this anyway. I am now motivated to make other changes towards a healthier lifestyle, like eating better and quitting smoking. You take the pills and drink the fiber before breakfast, drink water through-out the day and drink the delicious tea before bed. I plan to order a 2nd month, and hopefully a 3rd if I can afford it! Expensive, but worth it!

April 3rd I started a very healthy low carb high protein diet similar to the Atkin's Diet, but with more fruits, nuts and salads, in order to lose some weight, since it worked for me well several years before. I searched online for a product that would be good to detox my body and found the info on Colonix and Toxinout. I spent a couple of days reading lots of the reviews/testimonials from "customers" and was convinced to give the product a try, even tho someone I asked told me the product is not worth the money. So I purchased 3 months supply of the expensive Colonix and Toxinout systems and started taking them on April 25th, by then I had lost 18 lbs. on the low carb high protein diet. I followed the directions precisely and drank at least 8 cups of water a day. The fiber powder has a very revolting taste even mixed with juice. The taste is so disgusting I had to hold my breath and swallow it as quickly as possible, but I figure that was a small price to pay if the product work the way it's supposed to. The following few days I didn't notice any dramatic bowel movements, only thing different was much more intense yellow looking urine, and had several small very soft vowel movements instead of just 1 or 2 soft BMs. The next few days the movements decreased back to 1 or 2 small BMs a day, sometimes soft, sometimes normal-hard. On April 29th I had bad cramps at least 3 times that day. The next day as soon as I got up I started having chest pains. Thinking it might be gas or heartburn I waited a while to see if the chest pain would go away, but it kept getting a little worst. I tried to lay down and the pain got much worst, so had to get back up. The pain didn't feel anything like heartburn or acid reflux which I have had in the past, before I started eating healthier. I called the help line from my health insurance and told the nurse my symptoms. She told me to call 911 and go to the hospital just to make sure I wasn't in danger. So I called 911 and the paramedics came and examined me and took me to the hospital. I spent most of the morning til early evening in the emergency room with the chest pain getting worst, having difficulty breathing, and unable to lay down flat on the bed, which would make the chest pain worst. Then was moved to ICU where I spent a few hours with arrhythmia in the form of tachycardia, with my heart beating up 135 beats a minute whenever I moved or got out of the bed to use the bathroom. A doctor finally gave me a shot of a medication which got my heart beating more normally. At midnight I was moved out of ICU to a room on another floor. I spent the night at the hospital, not being able to lay flat on the bed and still feeling mild chest pains up til the next afternoon. The doctors never found out what caused the chest pains or the tachycardia. The chest pain was gone by the time I got home in the afternoon and I didn't have any chest pain since then. I think what may had caused the chest pains may had been dehydration, maybe caused by all the fiber in the Colonix, but that's just a theory. I stop taking the Colonix and Toxinout for a couple of days, but then continue taking it, didn't want to give up on it so quickly, making sure to drink plenty of water. Continued to have pretty much the same results as before, with 2 or 3 small BMs a day. Had cramps a couple of times another day. By May 14 I had lost 22 lbs. on the low carb high protein diet. The results of the Colonix and Toxinout so far had been disappointing. I never had any weird or disgusting looking BMs like those shown on the DrNatura site, my BMs stayed pretty much the same. I'm seriously thinking of returning the 2 months I have left of the products for a refund. So I don't think I would recommend this product over another similar product. Since I can't prove that the products caused my chest pains I won't give it a 1 star rating. Can't give it more than 2 stars since I feel it didn't work as advertized or made me feel any different than before I started taking it.

I read about this product on the Colonix website, with all of its gross and dramatic pictures and stories. It seemed plausible that it could be true, that most of us have tons of gunk and parasites built up because of poor diets and not drinking enough water. So I bought a one month's supply and have been on it for almost 4 weeks now. I do feel that the Colonix website reviews are misleading and exaggerated. Perhaps some people really do have the experiences detailed on the site, but I would imagine they are in the minority. I have not had a single unusual "bathroom incident," and I've been following the program religiously. No bizarre unidentifiable masses or rope-like thingys, and no parasites. What I have noticed though, is that the skin on my face has become much smoother and healthier-colored (could be the 2 liters of water though?) and my nails have been growing much faster than usual, even though I am not on any supplements right now---only the Colonix. I haven't noticed more energy, more clear-headedness, weight loss, or anything else other people have claimed. It has been relatively gentle on my stomach, and sorry to be graphic, but the amount of toilet paper used in a "sitting" has been drastically reduced. Yeah, fiber!! All in all, I think it's helping me to "clean out," but I do wonder if the excessive price is worth it. Perhaps less expensive colon cleansers from Trader Joe's or Henry's Market would work just as well? I've never tried them, so I don't know. At this point, not sure if I'll purchase more of this product---Colonix recommends a three month cleanse, but at this price, I'm not sure if I will follow through.

I was a mom of 4 with brain fog, always tired, bad breath. After reading up on colon cleansing at a natural health message board, I decided to try this product. You can cleanse on your own using stuff that may be found in your own pantry, but the thing I liked about this product was that it was all prepackaged, ready to go for a busy mom like me. It worked slower over a longer period of time which was great, I am a stay at home mom. Hated the taste of the fiber at first, but I learned to drink it with grape juice(my hubby preferred apple juice) but now I can drink it with no problem. I did not feel well a week into the program, but realized that when you are trying to remove years of build up in your body, it can be hard on your system, dislodging all of that junk. By the end of week 2, I felt so incredible. Like a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I love the tea, it also was a nice time at night for me and my husband to sit down and talk. You should realize the long ropes they show you on the website is fiber with junk attached to it. Sorry to be gross, but I had to look. I do not tolerate olives well, I had one at Christmas dinner and part of it ended up stuck in me somehow, it was on this rope of stuff in March. There were all kinds of nasty stuff I passed. I also had dull side pain one night and the next morning, I passed a tapeworm. Disgusting!!!!!! I am a middle class American who has only left the country once on a cruise. I will begin my annual cleanse this summer (I do a 1 month cleanse only, the first time I did a 2 month), this will be my 3rd year. I cannot recommend this product enough. Make sure you take a probiotic with it.

I bought the Dual Action Cleanse to kick off my 2010 resolution to be healthier and more aware of my body. I saw the infomercials but didn't want to buy it on TV. I'm on week two and I feel really great! The product is easy to take, but it did take me awhile to get the pill amount right for what my body needs. It is NOT one of those "more is not better" products, and I made sure to find the right amount for my own body. Since starting I am regular, I have less gas, and I have better awareness for how certain foods have been affecting my body. And my pants are much, much looser. This is not just a colon cleanse, but is a whole body cleanse. It has herbs that work on all your body's systems (like the skin and liver), so it really works on detoxifying and removing all the toxins from a month of holiday splurging. It has motivated me to really cut back on snacking and sugar and bread. I want to eat more vegetables and plants based foods. And I've started drinking way more water. It is 30+ days, so it is a commitment, but I already know I'm going to be incorporating this into my new lifestyle changes. And if you look at other cleanses online or in stores they are much more expensive. Overall, highly recommended!

Hi, I personally would not recommend this product. It didn't really have any effect on me. Most of what you here about this item and on the television is mostly hype. [...] Thank You and Good Luck
