To colonic or not to colonic?

Considering a colonic?

"...death begins in the colon. Don't believe it? Ask any coroner. Autopsies often reveal colons that are plugged up to 80 percent with waste material." - Vegetarian Times, March, 1998

Oh, those vegetarians!

I have to admit that the idea of 'cleaning myself out' is enticing however I also understand the counterpoint that your intestines aren't your kitchen, as in something to clean out and organize.

* Thanks to everyone who shot me up with knowledge this weekend as I went from party to party, spreading the cheer and the question, "To colonic or not to colonic?"

** I've exercised rare restraint by not listing names of friends who contributed to this discussion. I suppose I can understand that not everyone would appreciate their google name searches yielding 'colonic conversation contributor' results.

How funny! A friend just started that program. I read up on it....might be a little scammish, but does not look like it will hurt you. We are using her as the test subject before anyone else tries.

Of course colons that are plugged up to 80 percent with waste material... it just means you need to have a shit! That's what the colon is there for...

Andrea, there can be nothing worse than watching your own shit pass through a transparent tube during a colonic... eat well, eat a balanced diet... you won't need a yard of plastic tube inserted up your ass and sluiced through with warm water. Don't listen to them... although ... on second thoughts if you do get one I am really looking forward to the photos on your blog

Hmm, any updates on this? I have many a times wondered about a colonic as it sounds logically beneficial, but it's so unknown that I wonder how effective it really is... so what was the verdict, to colonic or not? :)

I used Dr. Naturas product "Colonix" earlier last year, and it definitely works as advertised on his/her site. Even though I did not experience anything like what the pics show, I do know that I feel alot more energy after doing the program for a few days.

After about 30 days I stopped using the product, and about 3 months later I noticed that I had 0 energy. So, I got out the Colonix again and started up, and after about 3 days my energy was back.

So, if you are lookin for other options this might be one to look at.

Best,

Dave

BRAVA!
Wait for it... Gotta give it up for this bride and groom.
Flip flop? "I encourage...the Obama campaign to examine that record and to discuss it," the Newark Mayor says hours after calling Bain attacks "nauseating" and "crap."
