While looking for yesterday's colon picture, I can across some truly disturbing Internet pictures, to be sure.Let me give you the link and you decide how strong your tummy is feeling today.
I wanted a pic from like a colonoscopy or something ... then I saw all that crap people where pulling out of their toilets after using some amazing product and I had to do some research. I couldn't find a pic with that much stuff in a live colon ... something stunk.
You see, when I was a little girl, My gramma used to do ear candles. Make a hollow candle out of wax and strips of fabric, light in and hold it over your ear and the fire creates a vacuum that draws your earwax out of your ear.
One day I stole a candle and a match and went out back to experiment. I lit the candle and held it over a piece of plain white paper until it burned down to about 4 inches long. When I moved the candle, there was a small pile of ash. When I cut open the candle there was a bunch of burnt wax that looked EXACTLY like earwax. The candles were bogus.
My theory about the colon cleanse? Its a bunch of crap. Whatever they are pooping out, the long intestine looking mucoid nonsense? Its just a result of the products itself.

These ridiculous colon-cleansing marketing campaigns have led everyone to believe that their colons are full of toxic wastes that need to be cleansed. Nothing is farther from the truth. There is no actual medical science behind colon cleansing http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/colon-c… http://www.everydayhealth.com/blog/zimne…
Yes, your colon is full of bacteria, but at your age, if you're healthy, the large majority of these are "good" bacteria that you need to stay healthy.
How much "junk" is in the average colon at any given time? Unless the person has a colon disorder (such as Hirschsprung's Disease), your colon will contain 1-2 pounds of waste waiting to be excreted. Fecal matter, in a young healthy person, does not hang around in the colon for years.
What's the best way to take care of your colon? Eat foods with fiber and drink plenty of water. This will help your colon maintain its "muscle tone" and greatly reduce your risk of colon cancer
I agree with her.

Wow. I do not thank you for that link. In your defense, though, you did warn us. Still...EW.
This stuff is a total scam. For starters, it's loaded with iron, of which an over-abundance can produce some really frightening..."results".
The urban myth applied to a lot of these products was that when John Wayne died, he had an obscene amount of "results" impacted in his colon. The implications run from "Probably what caused his cancer" to "Eating red meat does this to you."
It's all a bunch crap...not to over-strain a metaphor.
John Wayne had lung cancer, not colon cancer.
In any case, I find it ironic that people who subscribe to these snake oil products do so with the notion of conventional medicine being a fraud.
I guess stupidity can't be cured by holistic or conventional medicine.
