Many health problems, including abdominal pain, constipation and lack of energy, can be related to an unhealthy bowel caused partly or largely by eating and drinking products that form a lot of built up waste inside the colon. People consume large amounts of toxic substances daily, including caffeine, sugar, white flour, aspartame, microwave-cooked food, hydrogenated fats and abysmal fried foods, which results in pounds of unwanted matter forming in colon.
"It's all just nonsense," says Dr. Brian Lacy of Dartmouth Medical School, author of Making Taste of IBS: A Physician Answers Your Questions about Irritable Bowel Syndrome. With prices often topping $100 and sometimes significant Cleans Colon $1,000 for weeklong spa therapies, Lacy calls colon cleansing "a very exorbitant enema."
