Is Colon Cleansing a Scam?

Tell you what, YOU try it and let us know. I’m not gonna be trying that anytime soon.

Never heard of colon cleansing? You’re in for a treat. It can make you younger! Give you energy! Improve your health! You see, apparently, your colon becomes coated with gunk that it can’t get rid of through normal processes. When your insides are covered with this nasty layer, vitamins and nutrients can’t get through, and it throws your whole body out of whack. In fact, you have no chance in hell of being normal if you allow your colon to keep its impacted layer of unpoopable sediment. You’re doing a great disservice to your body and should be ashamed of yourself.

Fortunately, there is a solution, which can be yours for a low, low price from the online affiliate marketer of your choice. The solution is amazingly simple. You take these pills or drink a mixture for a few days to loosen that evil coating. At the end of the treatment, you… expel the rope-like contents of your colon—that coating that was keeing you from a fulfilled life. Your entire colon. You’ll almost literally poop your guts out. There it is in the toilet bowl to amaze and astound your friends.

But that’s only half the story
Not spaghetti
It’s not enough to take the treatment and fill your toilet bowl with what never should have seen the light of day. You are now obliged to (I’m not making this up) fish it out and take a picture of it! You have now entered the Twilight Zone, where Internet scams meet medical quackery and closet fetishism.

You will not only take a picture of it, but you’ll distribute that picture to the blogs, bulletin boards, and purveyors of MagicColon all over the Net. You’ll have discussions about it, compare it to others’, and will be judged by the quality of your deposit. “It looks short. What is it, one meter?”
“1.2″
“Nice form…you can actually see the polyps and diverticula. It’s a near perfect mold. How was the bouquet?”
“Oh, it smelled like shit!”
“I’ll bet. Good thing you caught it when you did.”
Seriously, folks, it’s unbeLIEVEable. Google “colon cleansing” and see for yourself.

But Joe, heart surgery is gross and that has health benefits!
True, but most people don’t distribute photos of their aortic plaque. Still, might there be some truth to the dirty colon claims? In a word, No. The pills you take and the stuff you drink leaves lots of undigestible fiber in your colon and your body naturally gets rid of it in a few days. It’s not cleansing something unhealthy that was already there.

Here’s some more.

He has created a cleansing product that produces what the product is claimed to cleanse. I’m tempted to call it a brilliant scam, but I’ll leave that decision up to the courts, in case (hopefully) he ever gets sued by those who decide to do so. He’s earned millions by marketing this false idea, and the spreading of false ideas should be punished.

Here’s how this possible scam works:

Sell people a product that creates a condition, then claim that the product is curing the condition, without any proof that the condition was there before taking the product. (Mucus only becomes “plaque” *after* using his product.)

On second thought, if you’ve tried it, don’t tell us. We don’t wanna know. And we really don’t want to see the pictures!

  1. One of the purveyors of this stuff requires that you drink apple juice along with the magic herbal powder. My guess is that it’s the pectin in the apple juice that reacts with the powder to form the plug-o’-crap that forms in your colon. That all comes out in a couple days.

    A friend of mine runs a colon hydrotherapy spa. In essence, you stick a hose up your bum and are “gently irrigated” so the toxins and other goodies are flushed out. She swears by it. I have yet to try it and probably never well.

    Also, one of my biology profs was talking about this subject and said in all of her 20+ years of working with cadavers, has never seen a plugged up colon. Everyone had a nice healthy pink inside…unless they were cancerous. There was no plaque build up.

  2. “Plug-o’-crap”! You have a terrific way with words. I’ve also read that no cadavers have such plugs.

  3. Ahh! Very nice. Very disgusting. Yeah, there’s no way I’d try this one either.

  4. I have tried a cleansing regimen called Sunrise, but you can no longer get it because the FDA “killed” it in America, but I can tell you I lost weight on it. My stomach shrunk almost overnight after about two weeks, and it did do what it said it would.

  5. I did a juice and fiber cleanse that produced rope shits like the ones pictured on dr Naturas site. If you want amazing results like the ones pictured, all you have to do is take an excess of fiber (psyllium husk powder works the best). I dont know if it is the fiber or some kind of intestine lining that comes out but it was definitely rope like, and didn’t break apart. If you want to try it yourself you will need psyllium husk powder and a gallon or 2 of organic juice. For your breakfast lunch and dinner, mix 2 - 3 heaping spoons of the fiber into a glass of juice and stir until it starts to thicken. Drink it quickly or else it will be the consistency of thick apple sauce. I did this for 2 days and passed some crazy ropes with weird stuff inside. Even though I hadn’t eaten for 2 days I didn’t feel that hungry because of all the fiber. I felt great afterwards and would recommend this to anyone who is considering one of those expensive programs. It is much cheaper and produces the same if not better results.

  6. But did you take pictures? That’s the mark of a true believer. (No, I don’t want to see them.)

  7. I got the “FREE” bottle for $3.95 of COLONCURE and it’s not free!! The will charge $89.31 to your account every 30 days! Do not get this product!! I had to cancel my card and I am having to dispute charges because of this. WHAT A RIPOFF!!!

  8. I have a question:

    If the Dr N was such a rip-off, why does h e ahve the products made for children as well? I mean should some parent have a child with a problem, and something really bad would happen, wouldn’t it be advertised and the scam over? Or better yet, He has been in business for yrs, wouldn’t someone have discovered this was a scam by now? I’m on the program, and prior to it, I had reflux it was very bad, gas that would peel the paint off my walls, and bloated to the tenth degree,I exercised 3 X a week and I would like to believe I eat healthy, why is this program making me feel better and not worse?
