Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Shannon:)Hey guys, I have been having some problems with my intestines and colon lately. I had a laprascoptic surgury and hey said my intestines were really red and inflamed. I have had problems "going" my entire life and so they referred me to a gastrointestinal specialist. I thought that before i go and have them do a colonoscopy on me I would try some other remedies to help cure it myself. I did some research and hae come to find out tha i have every...seriously...every symptom of Celiacs Disease and it also runs in my family. So I am trying this product I have found on the internet called Slim and Cleanse. I figured some of this might be caused because i need to cleanse my colon. So I was wondering if you guys had any ideas or if you all have used the slim and cleanse and what your experiences with it where. I just dont want to use this last resort and have to circum to these docs who I know are only going to push more drugs on me that I really dont need or want. These are the main ingredients in it ....1. Psyllium (husk)...150 mg2. Fennel Extract 4:1 (Seed) ...75 mg3. Cascara Sagrada (Bark) ...60 mg4. Lactobacillus Acidophillus ...40 mg5. Licorice (root) ... 35 mg (standardize to 20 % glycyrrhizin )6. Papain ... 35 mg7. Ginger (Root) ... 25 mg (standardize to 5% total gingerols)8.Goldenseal (root) ... 20 mg (standardize to 5% total alkalods)Other Ingredients : Gelatin, Magnesium, Stearate, Titanium Dioxide. The Product is made by Biotech Research and it is the Original Slim and Cleanse. They say to mantain a healthy colon you have to follow up with the Slim and Cleanse Continuation Product. They have a website also where you can look at the info about the pills and what they are supposed to do, But I cant find any customer reveiws or anything like that. So I am hopeing for your feedback. Also it says to take between one to two capsules at bedtime..How do I know if I should take one or two? The website is www.biotechresearch.com Thanks alot guys, You all help me out so much...I am also open to all you suggestions! Thanks again!* Shannon Back to top Reply to sender | Reply to group |=2 0Reply via web post Messages in this topic (10) Find phone numbers fast with the New AOL Yellow Pages!

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Personally I have never been more constipated than when using Psyllium husk - but the other ingredients with it might well propel it through the gut - Cascara is not often used these day being generally considered too drastic for most people .... perhaps all the ingredients add up to a good balance - if you think it could help you then try it and let us know how you go, if you go?

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 you said Coeliac Disease runs thru the family........ surely then you have been tested to see if you carry the gene? Personally I would not go mucking about with my colon until I found out IF I was a Coeliac............... there is a special g/free diet that will help your colon to heal.

Doing a cleanse is a good start. If the directions state take 2 try that and if you find it is too much cut it back to one in the a.m and one in the p.m. Also you need to get your bowel healthy again and you are absolutely correct. The doctors will throw a bunch of drugs at you which will irritate your bowel further. You can do all the cleanses you want but if you are not eating the proper foods it will not give you the results you want. When you have bowel problems, taking a good look at the things you are eating is the first step. Eliminating things such as coffee, tea, pop, chocolate, refined sugars, potato chips all that really good stuff is essential. Learn to feel what foods make you feel tired. There are homeopathic remedies which will help you. Have you tried a homeopath or a holistic dr??? Taking a probiotic might be another route to check into. Acidophilus with lactobacillus and bifidus will help to heal the colon and put in more healthy bacteria. We can be healthy if we learn to look after ourselves. I wish you all the best.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I have coeliac disease. Unless you remove all gluten from your diet you will continue to have problems no matter what you do to help your bowels. I suffered my entire life until 2002 with not being able to go---heck my first memory is of having an enema--as a result I am in my 50's and suffering from fibro, OA, carpal tunnel, breaking teeth, breaking bones, etc. My husband who developed symptoms just three years ago finally allowed me to remove gluten from his diet and he is 100% improved. So though he was not born with coeliac, celiac, gluten intolerance, removing gluten from his diet helped his irritable bowel.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 If psyllium contipates you it is probably because you aren't drinking enough water with it - immediately. If it still constipates even with water intake increased, you may try mixing bentonite clay into the psyllium mixture to keep it slushy like a loose gelatin.--- On Tue, 9/23/08, Jane MacRoss <highfield1 wrote: Jane MacRoss <highfield1Re: OT: Slim and Cleanse Date: Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 4:59 AM Personally I have never been more constipated than when using Psyllium husk - but the other ingredients with it might well propel it through the gut - Cascara is not often used these day being generally considered too drastic for most people .... perhaps all the ingredients add up to a good balance - if you think it could help you then try it and let us know how you go, if you go?

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Hi Shannon! How weird is this, I have been researching and reading about the Master Cleanse….and today I see your post….kinda like a sign that I am on the right track. For some years I have been looking into all the different types of digestion aides and cleanses from colonics to the kidney & liver cleanses, and haven’t found any that seem tolerable or that seem to provide nourishment to my body throughout the cleansing cycle, until I read about the Master Cleanse. I am preparing to begin it in two weeks when I have a three day weekend and can be home for the first few days. I am looking forward to gaining improved health and eliminating the sinus congestion, the eczema and muscle pain due to past injury, as well as create a healthy colon and digestive system. Currently, I strive for a gallon of water a day and at least 25 grams of fiber. When I miss either target, it reflects immediately in bloating, no or less daily elimination as well as feeling sluggish and tired. Good luck with what you decide to do, Laura " Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness " Eckhart Tolle; A New Earth www.myspace.com/starflower99654 On Behalf Of Shannon Smith Monday, September 22, 2008 9:42 PM OT: Slim and Cleanse Shannon:) Hey guys, I have been having some problems with my intestines and colon lately.
