I've seen testimonials from nurses who work in clinics that do colonoscopies (looking inside your colon with a video cam) all day, and they've never seen any fecal matter stuck to the walls of anyone's colon.
Also, just watch Discovery Health, or TLC, etc. You'll eventually see a few colonoscopies yourself, and even in "unhealthy" people, you never see anything but normal tissue...
That is not being covered by fecal matter.
My personal opinion is that your body can clean itself, and you don't have a bunch of toxins stuck in your colon.
That's what the toilet is for. |
I really don't know what the truth is because I haven't researched it myself. I do know someone who had to go get a colon cleansing done because he had to go for another test in the hospital and they made him do this first. When he went they did the whole colon cleansing where they shove tubes up there and fill you with water and flush out all the crap in there, and he said it was really disgusting how much stuff came out. I don't know how much it was, but he was thoroughly disgusted by it.
Then he said for like the next week or two he felt like 500 times better than he ever felt in his life, having tonnes and tonnes of energy and stuff. Since he eats a regular SAD diet, he said that slowly though all that faded and like 6 months later he felt the same way again.
Then like a couple years later he wanted to get that feeling back so he went back to do another one of these things, but this time there wasn't as much stuff that came out and he was kind of disappointed. So I dont' knwo what that means really.
