Dr. Natura's Colonix Review - Part 1

Sorry for keeping you waiting for so long, spare time is not the thing I have aplenty for now, unfortunately. Anyway, it is the time to tell you the first few impressions on Dr. Natura's Colonix, following two weeks "under treatment".

I have followed the indications closely, took as much as it was written there and consumed the needed water (usually a bit extra, too). I didn't pay too much attention to my diet, but I tried to ignore as much as possible foods with high fat values or generally unhealthy foods. On the other hand, physical exercises were close to zero since I have a lot of work to do and my job unfortunately keeps me tied to the chair.

These being said, I must admit that I am still somewhere in the middle with all this Colonix thing: it was not a wondermaker for me yet during these two weeks, but it doesn't seem to be a scam, either. My bowel movements are regular and I do feel that I'm eliminating more waste than I did before. So these should be enough to make me happy. Unfortunately, there might be a problem I'm willing to look into and, if my concerns are right, I might even stop the Colonix diet.

I'm talking about high acidity, which I believe is created by the Kleriol tea (the one you have to drink before going to sleep). I am not 100% sure my high levels of acidity are caused by the tea - I suffered from Ulcers in the past and I still have gastritis and acidity problems every now and then, so it could be just bad timing. However, I did notice that acidity levels tend to raise after I drink the tea. So this could be my bigger con, from a personal point of view.

Although I did not start looking at my feces (I wanted to, but I just can't!) I don't know if I am starting to eliminate stuff like other people who tried it were. One thing is for sure, though: I do eliminate bigger quantities and generally I feel better. There are no side-effects (except for the afore-mentioned acidity problem which might not be caused by it), and that makes me happy.

Oh, and one more thing: I find it a complete pain to take the Colonix (the fibers) in the morning. I have never used colon cleansers before, not fiber supplements and I must admit that it's a pretty tough job. So, if you plan to do it, be prepared! Also, stay tuned as I will update you on my Colonix review soon!

Starting to Review Dr Natura's Colonix

Following a lot of delays from various reasons, today I will start using Dr. Natura's Colonix and post weekly updates on the product. I have only purchased a set for one month - since I have never done such a colon cleansing before, I did not want to go for the full three months package before knowing how my body reacts to it.

Anyway, the idea is that, starting today, I hope to get rid of my annoying constipation and finally get it going and feel better with myself. Stay tuned as I will update my Colonix experience regularly and I will personally tell you if it is a scam or not. I truly hope it's not, because I'm running out of options with my IBS :) Stay healthy!

Just Bought My First Colon Cleanser!

If you read my previous entries, you probably know I’m not really for using colon cleansing products… but sometimes, you should not follow your heart but what the medic says, especially if you have a very disturbing irritable bowel syndrome, like I do. (Well... it was just a figure of speech, since no doctor told me to go for a colon cleansing product, but I decided to do so after consulting with him and the almighty Internet).

So, the idea is that, after reading tons of reviews on the Internet about colon cleansing products, after checking every dark corner of each company, I have decided to go for Colonix from Dr. Natura simply because it received the most positive reviews. Hopefully, these were honest and not paid-for ones, since I know that happens pretty often nowadays, and it’s so un-ethical when it comes to health.

Anyway, I have ordered the program and today I received the colon cleansing program for one month (honestly, I don’t trust it does what it promises, so there was no point for me to order the recommended 3 months program for those who never did this).

I must say that the first thing that crossed my mind when I saw this product was: Hey! It’s much smaller than I had imagined! (You probably know the classic ad-picture of this product, and it seems to be huge. Well… it is not).

Colonix comes with an instruction guide telling you exactly what steps you should follow, how this colon cleansing product works and other stuff like that (which, if you have an irritable bowel syndrome for a while, you probably know for yourself). However, I must admit that the writing is pretty good and I am tempted to believe them. They promise to do a lot of good to your colon, and I don’t know why they would do something like that if it wasn’t true. So I’ll start and pray for the best…

However, my review on this product won’t come too fast – right now I’m undergoing a different detox program with microhydrin and lots of naturist stuff (things that kind of work, but are not great) but as soon as possible, I’ll come up with my review for Dr. Natura’s Colonix, so stay tuned!

Medical Colon Cleansing

One of the most famous colon cleaning techniques are the ones backed up by so-called medical background. Although some of these products might be true about their promises and really be able to clean the colon and bowel, one should be really careful when deciding what product to choose and how to use it because, just like the enemas, colon cleansing product may turn into really dangerous medications.

First of all, it’s worth noting that one post is not enough to debate all the effects, pro’s and con’s of the colon cleansing products, because we have so many of them and there are quite some people in each side on the boat.

However, out of personal experience, I can say that the one product I used seemed to do its job just as it should – I did quit using it, though, because I found out some other treatment means (I will talk about them in another post) which were 100% natural.

Now… back to the colon cleansing products. If you are reading this blog and especially this post, it means that you have finally got to the point were you believed there is nothing able to help you but some medicine. You are feeling constipated, you probably haven’t defecated for a long while and, all in all, you feel like you’re going to explode any minute now.

If you will head to any official website of a colon cleansing product – like the ones listed on the right – you will see that they all promise all the good in the world and, even more, by judging from their “testimonials”, they are real treasures. Are they – this is the question you should ask yourself.

If you would like to know a person who is anti-colon cleansing products, you should check this long and funny material here, called The Colon Cleansing Prank. Of course, as you will see, it is not exactly a scientific method of proving anything, but at least it is a place to start – the particular product used (and the one that probably enjoys the biggest marketing campaign, DrNatura’s Colonix) seems to be doing its job. Please read it and be ready for the next post, where we will take an in-depth look at the colon cleansing products. It is going to be quite a series of posts!

Please note

All the advice offered here is based on personal experience (I am fighting against IBS, gastritis, ulcers and acute constipation). I am by no means a doctor and nor should my advice be taken for granted. Even though I am 100% sure what I say is correct, please take my articles only as guidelines and contact a medic for proper diagnosis and treatment for all your colon or abdomen related problems: irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers, gastritis, as well as any symptoms you have. Stay healthy!
