Superlong Testimonials

Below you'll find some superlong testimonials that we simply had no room for on our regular Testimonial Pages. Sometimes a detox experience is just too amazing to squeeze into a few sentences. These people truly put their heart and souls into sharing their stories with us in an entertaining and very detailed manner. If you have the time, please spend a few minutes (or hours) reading the stories below. We promise that it will be time well spent.

"I was tested for everything under the sun... "

"I cannot even begin to thank DrNatura enough! My story would be WAY too long if I tried to tell everything in detail from the beginning. However, I believe that this product has literally saved my life and I will tell what I can in a small book rather than a novel.

"Do this for yourself! Feel great in three months or less!"

"Well I just don't know what to say. I am just stunned.  Literally stunned. I was on the Colonix for the first month. Understand that I've had arthritis problems since I was very little and migraines since I was eight. I had to be on medication due to horrible acne and because of the years of taking that medication it induced Lupus and I had to quit taking it. 

Three years ago, I was working out every day, healthy, happy and fine.  That December I hit a very bad time.  I could NOT think - could not understand simple English sentences without difficulty, I could not function, had to ask my poor eight year old son to make his own peanut butter sandwiches because I had to think too hard on how to make one - not joking.  One person was kind enough to address the issue quickly and efficiently and cared. All other doctors were too busy to care.  This one person has changed my life for the better.  I was put on natural hormones, which helped a lot, but they began to lose effectiveness and I had to take FAR more than the standard amount to see results. 

I had my gall bladder out after my son was born 8 years ago.  I was born with blindness and deafness, but this never stopped me.  I fought all of the doctors who wanted to prescribe mostly antidepressants when I kept saying it isn't the depression. I don't FEEL good, and that's what's making me SAD! 

I tried another colon cleanse which did NOTHING.  Talked with my health practitioner regularly - she's holistic and into natural remedies, and she encouraged me to explore about my body, so I researched on the internet.  Found all kinds of remedies and solutions and similarities.  I came across Colonix a couple of months ago and began to read the testimonies.  It was all logical...  My skin was always horrible.  I always had severe sugar cravings and chocolate cravings and junk food cravings that I fought HARD with a health attitude and organic foods and exercise, but they got in at times... 

At age 42 I was headed downhill.  And there was nothing I could do about it, so I ordered your product because of the testimonials...  Duh, no nutrients were getting to the brain.  Sore all the time, for the same reasons.  I was running fevers all the time, falling severely ill almost weekly, and missing my university classes because of illness and lack of motivation.  I didn't wait long to order it. 

The first month on Colonix alone (because it had been 42 years of not being healthy) was frustrating.  I kept a daily log with details so that I could pay close attention to my bodily and mental changes.  I got a few benefits but the main thing that frustrated me was I didn't lose weight, I didn't feel stuff clearing out of my system quickly or even regularly, and well, I certainly didn't get the energy boost.

...I was tired for a couple of weeks, but it was a different tired, like the kind of tired you are after a bad cold or flu and you wake up finally feeling not only rested, but like you got rid of a bad thing. But no weight loss, so I upped the fiber to 2 scoops for the last two weeks and for a few days, three. 

My hours ended up topsy turvy, which is, I found out, indicative of a liver not properly functioning. (Thank you liver flukes and toxins backed up for years.) I slept in the morning and wide awake at night.  I gained about 2 pounds but I wasn't as hungry, and craved salads and fruits and healthy foods.  Fresh healthy foods. That sugar craving mainly went out the door but there were a couple of days when I had plenty of chocolate in the form of brownies. 

I am stubborn if nothing else.  I kept reading the testimonials and saying I must be in for more because I wasn't having the great results yet.  I finished the first month with days dragging by.  I kept doing research and because of an achy right jaw joint, well, I read up on mercury in the body.  Thud went my stomach, more of the same symptoms that I've been suffering, and mercury can cause Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and all kinds of other problems with the liver and kidneys and lymph nodes.  Time for round two and get the Toxinout going!  (Toxinout helps remove excess metals.)

I waited the five days before starting up the Paranil and the Kleritea again.  I started the Toxinout and the DetoxiGreen.  I got new headaches and they weren't pleasant, but I could tell that something was going on in my body.  My urine sank to the bottom of the toilet and was almost green.  (What else sinks but metals...) Then three days later, I went to the bathroom and a lot of stuff was leaving my body...

I woke up one day feeling like someone had kicked me in the kidneys.  I went to the bathroom and later in the morning felt fine.  My urine was back to normal color and not sinking anymore.  Wait a minute!  An hour or two later, I felt...what was that? GREAT!  I haven't felt great in years and years.  Well before my son's birth! 

I had a muscle in the back of my leg that hurt immensely but I had injured that leg when I was a teenager.  It was strange though because while it had often made me limp, it was hurting and on it's own!  I thought well, I'll beat that leg, and went and did a hard work out to see if I could kick enough blood and fluid through to make it stop hurting. 

The next day, I woke up and the leg was sore but like it was healing.  I went to pull on my freshly dryered jeans which are always a struggle to get over my water retaining legs and what? They slid right over them!  Hold on, uh, where'd the belly overhang go?  Wait, my sides aren't hanging over either? I just stared at my jeans certain that I'd somehow swapped with the neighbor.  But no, there was the circle rub that had worn in one corner that came from a drill bit gone haywire. They were my jeans.  Out of the dryer!

I went about and did the dishes, picked up the apartment, vacuumed...wait, whoa, hold the horses! Did I just VACUUM?  My absolutely most hated thing to do?  Did I just do the laundry?  Without waiting until there were no clothes to wear?  I made a meal for me and my son!?  When did that happen and how did I get the energy or the motivation? 

Last night I went to bed, tired like I've never been tired before.  I fell asleep at midnight which is awesome.  Three hours later, wide awake.  Oh no.  Back to sleep at 6:00 a.m.  Slept more than I have in the last month and woke up at noon. (Thank god it's summer and my son has no school! He's good at making cereal with milk too!) I woke up, and oh my God, my other jeans just slid on! ‘Mom, you look skinnier than yesterday,’  pipes up the little guy. I put on a belt and didn't hurt from the belt holding the tight things to my hips. 

More parasites and more bowel movements daily. I have dropped the fiber back to one and a half scoops.  I'm back to working out again, and tonight I went running.  I've never enjoyed running in my life.  (My ex husband was on the French national track team and made me run the ‘right’ way and it was hell.) But tonight I enjoyed running.  I had energy and nothing – did you catch that? – nothing hurt! Not the back of my leg, not my twisted ankle, not my joints not my stomach, I didn't end up breathing hard, or getting worn out, and hello!  I feel great!  People with Lupus will understand what I say when I say you never feel great for a long, long time. You have good days and bad days, but never great days. 

Three people told me that I look thinner in less than one week. 

Why did I write?  I didn't get the results so quickly as everyone else seemed to.  I had to wait for the second month to begin to see things going the right way.  But I also had a LOT for my body to heal.  I wanted others who don't see results so quickly, like many people on this website, to be patient or better yet, be stubborn and determine that you're going to beat the bad stuff in your body! I have more to get through.  So for those not quite feeling as great as they'd like in the first month, just wait until the Toxinout in the second month and remember, you're body took years and years to get all blocked up, it's only three months to get it back to the way it's supposed to be. 

I looked at the ingredients in the Paranil Jr. by the way.  They are nearly the same as what is in some of the other natural allergy sprays that I've tried.  I will say that the Paranil Jr. did sting a bit, but I read that the Candida yeast can also get in the sinus cavities and not just the digestive tract.  I sprayed the Paranil Jr from a nasal spray bottle and my sinuses cleared without having to spray more than once a day and I could for the first time breathe through both nostrils!  I have had no more allergy problems this summer and I understand that it’s another bad season. 

I have not felt this good since I was in my twenties.  I called every one of my best friends, ordered the product for one and she is already seeing the parasites leaving her body, and told them all that they deserve to feel this great!  I want them all to feel this good!  I am ordering more product for my son (who has seen slow but steady results as well) and will be ordering the product for another close friend for his birthday.  He has been suffering from many of the same symptoms that I've had, and he believes he may be getting Alzheimer's.  I believe it is parasites. 

I can't thank you enough.  Oh, and for anyone who asks, no, you don't have to stay near the bathroom, unless you're like my best friend and start the Kleritea without taking any fiber because you're out of juice or something to mix it with.  Wait until you take the fiber!  But this gives you normal bowel movements.  Not like other colon cleanse products at all.  This is fiber, not a laxative and not a chalky substance that just burns on its way through.  (I have a recipe that is yummy: one and a half cups of organic milk, one Dannon activia (vanilla) one half banana and your scoops amount of fiber.  Tastes like a banana milkshake.)

Thank you DrNatura.  You've won not only me over, but I already know 7 people who are going to order this from you because of how it helped me.  One's a nurse, one is my health practitioner, and the others are just people tired of feeling ‘ish’ is my word (you add it to all of the good words or the bad ones, because you never are completely feeling that way).  All of my friends want to feel great again. 

I cannot get over how for the last week I've felt so GREAT.  I haven't felt great for years and years.  Oh!  And my skin is cleared up, no medication, and I don't have to take the natural hormone supplements anymore.  I didn't tell you that yes, it does improve vision.  I am able to see more now than I have for many, many years and the ringing in my ears is almost diminished to nothing.  There's a long laundry list of other great benefits I've seen and gotten from this product, but for Lupus and arthritis sufferers, WOW.  Just get this and stick with it.  Make sure to do the Toxinout as well in the second month or you will not understand the greatness of this. 

I had a half salad at the restaurant tonight.  And I passed on dessert.  That just doesn't happen.  I feel great.  Thank you for giving me back ME, DrNatura.  Thank you. For anyone reading this: Don't wait anymore.  You deserve to feel great again!  Do this for yourself! Feel great in three months or less.  What more could you ask for?"

“I am compelled to cry out to the universe,
‘WHAT THE %*&@ is this coming out of me!!??!!’”

“Hello, my name is Deanne and I’m a parasite host (or hostess...with the mostess.)

My guess is that I’ve been profoundly infested and toxic for many years. My hope is that this product will transform me into a fervent parasite assassin, as I deem it somewhat of a last-ditch effort in securing more time in this life with my children. My medical history is too lengthy to discuss but suffice it to say... it does leave something to be desired. And let me also inject that my relationship over the past twenty years with the medical industry has left me frustrated, distrustful, and in some cases, infuriated. I obtained my Bachelor’s degree from the University of Kansas (1981) in Biology, Health, and Physical Education, where I was (until my senior year) passionately committed to pursuing a career in the medical field. While I realize it may be an oversimplified, even unfair and dramatic overgeneralization, my sincere opinion of A.M.A.-trained establishments is that they are turning out “doctors” who are neither thinkers nor healers.

My experience has left me with the conviction that the establishment has birthed a generation of doctors that are not interested in genuine involvement in their patient’s lives (and in some cases, even welfare), and the sum total of their professional worth seems to be restricted to a three-fold ministry: writing prescriptions(bestowing on the global pharmaceutical industry a nice, cushy little existence), making referrals (as they themselves seem to not actually possess the ability (or desire) to treat illnesses successfully nor diagnose accurately), and ordering tests...and more tests...and more tests. The result? The patient, if fortunate enough to survive their doctor’s “care”, is left in a worse state than they began. Now, I do realize there are competent, caring doctors out there; I just haven’t been fortunate enough to be treated by one in a long, long time. So I wonder...what ever happened to Marcus Welby anyway?

Day One - I drank the tea last night and was both very surprised and impressed at how good it actually tasted...not unlike my favorite herbal teas. And as for the Colonix intestinal cleanser (powder), again...very impressed; I warily anticipated having to “gag it down” but alas, I mixed it in with my famous (healthy) banana shake and, “WOW! It just tastes nutty!” So far, I can enthusiastically say, “Well done, DrNatura!”...I’m not one to force things down my gullet that don’t thrill my taste buds, so thanks. And now, as I proceed with this program, I look forward with eager expectation and great trepidation to the shocking and dreadful discoveries that await me...in my toilet bowl. Yeeha.

Day Two - I now suspect, on day two, that this program will provide the equivalent of a Master’s degree in Scatology for the so-inclined participant. How gross is this going to get, anyway? Upon awakening (after taking the capsules) I felt “the call”, as my father referred to it, and elatedly headed for the bathroom. I was somewhat disappointed in the initial volume but was pretty sure that there was more to be had shortly. More to be had? I didn’t even meet my fifteen-minute deadline to drink my cleansing shake. I glued myself to the bowl as my body succumbed to the herbal warrior’s offensive in my captive colon. I’m thrilled to report that the enemy’s front line has been compromised. I am now finding myself being aggressively drawn back to a long lost passion: Biology. I’m fighting the temptation to find a way to actually measure volume, mass, and composition of whatever this is that is being expelled from my gut. Shall we discuss volume? I would have to describe it as three installments of a single movement, each separated by a few minutes, each installment producing approximately 16 oz. of poopoosludge for a whopping total of 48 oz.! Feeling deflated has never felt so good.

And now for composition (I really should chart this data): The first two installments seemed “normal” enough, so I observed (minimally) with visual and olfactory senses. The third movement, however, smelled...for lack of a more accurate descriptive...burnt. Equipped with bamboo skewer (from the Thai section of the grocery store), I lifted the lid, got on my knees, and got to work. All I can say is, “chicken curry it is not”...well maybe it was several weeks ago, but now? I am left with the prevailing conviction that Dr. Natura’s clientele should automatically qualify as contestants on Fear Factor. Let’s just leave our descriptive data at this: multi-colored, ranging from a benign, normal-bowel-movement-brown to black, and texture, mass, and consistency of some “parts” resembling that of gelatinous soft rubber...soft rubber...ew.

Day Six - I thought I was prepared. I really did. I scanned the picture gallery on the Web site multiple times and was actually looking forward to expelling my own host of organisms. I must now confess, however, that only seven days ago, prior to embarking on this program, when I was still naive, innocent, and unsuspecting; when never, in a million years, would it have occurred to me to apply the verb “unwind” to “feces”, I simply could not have imagined the nature of what was to come and I am compelled to cry out to the universe, “WHAT THE %*&@ is this coming out of me!!??!!” I feel as though I have been recruited as an unwitting casualty in a nightmarish alien sci-fi thriller; I’m just grateful they won’t be bursting out of my chest...will they??? Don’t get me wrong, though; if I were granted the option of returning to a state of ignorant bliss rather than confronting these demons head-on, it’s not even an option. No way would I go back; but now that I am painfully enlightened as to what is living (not to mention eating, pooping, secreting, and REPRODUCING) inside of me, I’m tempted to investigate the possibility of cramming a high power shop vac up there to get it all out NOW!

Let’s just condense the horror and say that “it” hit while I was shopping for gift cards today. I generally try to avoid using public restrooms, but, hey, why deprive my fellow man of an opportunity for a bonding experience with their families? I mean, if the person in the stall next to you had an explosive bowel movement followed by a vocalization of semi-hysterical expletives a few seconds later, wouldn’t you tell your spouse about it? I know I would...and my mother, and my kids, and my siblings, and my friends; and furthermore, I’d peek under the wall of the stall to catch a glimpse of their shoes so I’d be able to identify them later in the store and put a face with the poop. Won’t that make you think twice about pooping in public restrooms, knowing that there are twisted people out there who do things like this? Well, I don’t know what to say about the experience except that “it” was the last segment of the expulsion and “it” didn’t want to come out...completely...so “it” just kind of hung on until I wiped (pulled?) “it” off. “It” was about four inches long, two inches wide (at the widest end, then tapered to about an inch on the other end), black and tan (popular designer colors) and again was the consistency of gelatinous rubber. If I had been at home, it most definitely would have justified the $.29 film developing cost, but alas, I found myself in a quandary (I was going to say “jam” or “sticky situation” but reconsidered; somehow it seemed to be lacking in taste). Do I solicit the cashier for a baggie? Do I actually remove “it” from the restroom and carry “it” through the store? These thoughts really did occur to me, which kind of frightens my more rational self. I am happy to announce that I ultimately submitted to reason, resisted the path of temptation, and flushed “it”. However, now there is no permanent record of my first really sizeable “dependant” (too bad we can’t claim them on our income tax).

Day Seven - Here come the worms. I don’t know if I have the stomach for this. Actually, at this point I’m curious as to just how much of my intestinal tubing has been affected; is it restricted to the colon? Or is it possible that my small intestine has also been converted to the “Eat Me Host Hotel” for the varied and sundry suckers that have determined to set up camp inside this homo sapien? Some deal they’ve got; free room and board...I should be so fortunate...then again, if my meals were what these guys are eating, I think I’d have to pass. Anyway, does “accordion” mean anything to anyone? Because that’s the only way I can describe the coiled “chunky” one; it was about the size of a half-dollar, was hard, and had “folds”. The ones that were obviously worms were thin and whitish; about six inches long, and when prodded, displayed a certain amount of “spring”, not unlike a rubber band. I imagine they were Ascaris or some other poo-eating round worm, unless they were young flats...not sure. I only observed three of them, although I am convinced that had I the yen to dig in, I would have discovered more. Funny, but I haven’t had a craving for spaghetti in a while; I guess pasta will just never look the same. That’s okay; I needed to get off of carbs anyway...what better inspirational deterrent than to have such a convincing facsimile of spaghetti being expelled from my bowels?

Day Eight - Four hours and five bowel movements later, all I can say is Ew. Ew. Ew. You know, if I could silver coat these things, they might make nice jewelry; especially the one that was shaped like a charm bracelet. I don’t even want to talk about it.

Day Nine - I’m only hoping that what I observed this morning was the remnant of undigested sesame seeds and not what my better judgment is suggesting to me. Gnawing at me (aside from the uninvited guests in my gut) is a growing conviction that my diet really needs to change; perhaps I should no longer depend on pickles as my “greens” or justify chocolate as a legitimate source of antioxidants and serotonin. I’ve been (predominantly) a vegetarian for about eight years but as I am growing increasingly more revolted by the magnitude of repulsive things in my toilet bowl, I have to be painfully honest with myself and admit that, even as a (predominantly) non-carnivore, I have found ways to adulterate, compromise, and toxify my body through my daily intake of victuals. I guess God wasn’t messing around when He told us that greens and fruits are to be our food. (Gotta watch out for that one tree, though.) And while I know that in itself, “God’s diet” does not negate the potential for parasitic infestation, I sure would place bets on those greens and fruits decreasing the amount of plaque-sludge in our tubing. And as I think about it, mega vegetation is the only thing that all of the doctors (homeo and allopathic), nutritionists, and “diets” on the market can agree on. hmm...I guess I’ll go eat some carrots...

Day Ten - If, three weeks ago, someone had told me that I would be digging my @#$% out of my toilet bowl for inspection purposes, I would have responded in a most impolite and unpleasant manner. Now I’m dragging my husband out of bed at 5:30 am to participate in the examination. I’m pretty certain he didn’t actually anticipate this when he canted “for better or worse...” but it was a Yeeha! morning, and what’s a girl to do? And I must say, to date, this tops them all. The weird part is that I didn’t actually feel “it” making “its” exit, but there was more “air” then usual, so I guess “it” was hanging on a bowel-wind-current and just sailed “its” way right out of my protoplasmic hose and into my toilet. Now, I have to confess; I have not been removing “them” from the bowl; I have simply been observing and poking around (kind of the same way a kid pokes at cooked frozen vegetables they find repulsive). Well, this morning I turned a corner and both experienced and survived my right of passage. Yes, I dug “it” out! (May I just inject a word of advice to the thrill seeking adventuresome and recommend covering the nose and mouth when performing such inspections? I might even be persuaded that impermeable gloves, a gas mask, and a wetsuit might not be altogether inappropriate attire.) I have found the best tool for retrieval is a pair of plastic, disposable forks. “It” was amazingly dense and felt “heavy” for “its” size and the forks provided some stability (not unlike removing a Thanksgiving turkey from the roasting pan). A large, slotted spoon might also work well; I just wouldn’t recommend reusing it later to serve dinner to your family.

So here’s the data (not exactly in scientific format, but what the heck): “It” has no description. I am convinced that the English language simply does not contain sufficient vocabulary to adequately portray these absolutely and utterly, enormously and uncompromisingly, disgusting and intolerable agents of hell; perhaps in some remote corner of the earth where humans may be a bit more accustomed to dealing with such realities, or perhaps in some other galaxy where these things actually originate; but here, in the good ol’ still-pretty-sterile-in-our-thinking U.S. of A...huh uh. While I appreciate my fellow bowel-cleansing participant’s admirable “Christmas lights dipped in chocolate” depiction, I just don’t know that that really cuts it. I mean, “it” had “flaps”...flaps!!!...and something that resembled living glandular tissue in both structure and color. In all of my years of studying and teaching Biology, I have to concede; I have never seen anything like this in my life. “It” was about six inches in length and seemed to have a rubbery, mucousy, stringy core of connective tissue holding “it” all together. The brown and black “flaps” bulged like organ appendages from one end of the “core” to the other, and “it” boasted a host of white, stringy, semi-transparent, you guessed it...worms (or maybe it was the remnant of some Thai rice noodles I ate recently, but I doubt it). The flaps obediently folded over as I poked and prodded them, just to reveal more of the same underneath and around the entire structure. (My husband, also obedient, watched in horror, trying not to heave, with his nose and mouth buried in his T-shirt as the woman he said, “I do” to, completed her hideously and shockingly repugnant data collection expedition.) It ended with a couple snapshots documenting the occasion, and a victorious flush, relegating “it” to its eternal damnation in our septic tank (not somewhere I would want to spend eternity).

So now a synchronized wave of extreme satisfaction and terror fills me as I resign myself to the authentic certainty that I am indeed...contaminated. Satisfaction because I can finally put a face (and such a lovely one) with at least some, if not most or all, of the physical issues that have plagued me for decades, and terror because now I can put a face with the physical issues that have plagued me for decades. The real icky part is the knowledge that this is just the beginning; I’m only ten days into a three-month program, and my current conviction is that I’m loaded with these guys. Until they are all expelled, they are going to be continuing to violate my digestive tract with their filth. I don’t suppose there’s any way to speed up the process, is there? I am so thoroughly grossed out, I don’t know what to do with myself, but once again, the enema/wet-vac combo is sounding like a winner.

Day Eleven - They have mouths. Oh my God...they have mouths.

The husband arrived home last night with a multitude of information on flatworms; all the different kinds, the “gland” factor from our morning observation, his determination of which specie was “mine”, and, amongst other endearing and compelling particulars, the urging to look for its mouth. So upon producing this morning’s first offering, I thought to myself, “Let the digging begin”, wherein I dutifully retrieved my “tools” and got to work. I have to say, it is getting easier. Perhaps the shock and horror of yesterday’s first real (close) encounter (of... I don’t even know which kind) was of such a magnitude that it simply cannot be equaled; or perhaps, now, I am just really pissed off at these things and have conjured my inner Viking battle maiden for war. In any event, it does seem to be getting easier and the excavation was successful; producing a respectable endowment of eight inches in length that included a similar structural composition to yesterday’s “thing”. It did, however, provide us with a new tidbit for the chronicle; it had a mouth. I don’t know if yesterday’s had a mouth as well and we simply missed it as we succumbed to a state of shock, or if (more horrifying and probably more realistically) the two “parts” had been one, but had torn apart in the sloughing off process. Either way, I’m thinking that when this is all said and done, I’m going to have to enroll myself in a twelve-step program for survivors of parasite invasions. The thing had a mouth.

Day Twelve - Well, they just keep coming and I’m pretty well convinced at this point that they are going to continue coming for quite a while. I can’t help but reflect on a ghastly, familiar scene from one of the “Alien” movies (I can’t remember which part) when Sigourney Weaver happened upon the “mother” alien and her egg factory. I have a gnawing sense of anxiety and certainty that what has been evacuated from my body to date, represents only a fraction of what is yet to come; “Mother” still resides within. What I wouldn’t give for one of those cool “Alien” explosive fire-launching guns. Oh, mommy dearest, come see what I have for you.

Day Thirteen to Day Twenty Five- Progressing nicely...if there is anything “nice” about pooing parasites. Not a day has gone by that I haven’t enjoyed the company of at least two guests in my bowl. I now have my husband (oh my God...I thought I had it bad...can you say “slime”?) and five friends on the program and I don’t plan on stopping there. Pretty soon we’re going to have to expand the world’s sewer system. My only regret so far is that I didn’t order the Toxinout with the Colonix program. Detoxing isn’t something I’d choose to do in my spare time and next time around, it (the Toxinout) is most definitely on my order form. I can truthfully say that this is by far the most effective and thorough colon-cleansing regimen I have ever experienced and I am most sincerely thankful to the people at DrNatura for their diligence in producing one of the most valuable health products on the market. In fact, if a healthy colon really is the key to a healthy body then I am convinced it is not one of the most valuable products out there, it is the most valuable. So again, may I just say excellent job, and thank you so much.”

Day ???- I am now completing my third month of the Colonix program. Just as a general update, I wanted to be sure to include a few extras in my testimonial that I may have inadvertently omitted. First, let me reiterate; in fifteen years of trying various colon-cleansing products on the market, I have never experienced anything that comes (even remotely) close to Dr. Natura’s. To this day (three months after the starting date), I am continuing to pass unusual...stuff. What I really would like to communicate, however, is how my overall health has improved. What I am hearing from friends and family who have watched my progressive decline into sickness and near debilitation over the past twenty years, is that the change in both the color of my skin and its clarity (since I have been on the program) is remarkable. For the first time since 1985, I have not been plagued with the commonly recurring symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. Gone is the deep bone pain, muscle, tendon, and joint pain, sore throat, headaches, extreme exhaustion, foggy thought processes, elbow “tendonitis”, sleep disturbances, depression, fluctuations between diarrhea and constipation, anxiety, irritability, recurrent upper respiratory tract infections, and swollen glands. I have been bombarded by conventional medical methodology with toxic pharmaceuticals (including literally years of antibiotics), CT scans, narcotics for pain, and misdiagnosis after misdiagnosis after misdiagnosis. I am thrilled beyond expression to have been liberated from that world of incompetence, lack of compassion, and arrogance. I am now so convinced of the benefits of natural healing, I have enrolled in the Global College of Natural Medicine. I’ve come full circle; I started out in medicine...I’m ending up in medicine. This time around, though, I feel as though I am being equipped to actually help people. After all, aren’t we commissioned to “first, do no harm”?

If it’s working for me, it will work for you as well

Hello, my name is Pat.  I'm a 64 year old Grandma who found herself slowly dying and didn't know why, or how to fix it... After many years of suffering and being told by my Doctor that he could do no more for me, I was sent home to die.

A friend at church gave me the name of a doctor in Springfield , and I went to see him.  Within two weeks he had me in for heart surgery. He did a quintuple bypass on my heart and repaired my mitral valve.  Later he told me that I could go home and shovel snow if I wanted to.

As the months went by, I noticed I still didn't have the energy I once had, but since I had been so inactive for so many years, I just thought it would take some time to restore my energy. That didn't happen, and I began to feel worse and worse.  I had developed diabetes prior to the surgery.  I had high blood pressure that I was taking medication for, acid reflux, bloated belly, constipation, sinus problems, feet & leg pain, fibroid tumors under my skin throughout my body, mostly in my breasts. I had developed arthritis in my fingers, lower back and my neck. Bumps began to grow on my legs and feet, little calcium, crusty type bumps that I constantly picked at. As a result, I found that I had scabs all over my legs, feet, and parts of my arms. I was becoming nervous and twitchy, sometimes feeling like something was crawling on my skin making me itch.  My face became blotchy with red splotches. I began biting my nails (something I hadn't done since a very young girl). My joints hurt so much that getting up and down from a chair, or out of bed, was almost unbearable.  I was tired all the time, my stomach began to swell very large and I began to retain fluid throughout my body.  So much so, that at one point I had gained 30 lbs. in a week and 1/2.

One night while stepping out of the shower, I caught my image in the mirror. It scared me to death. It looked like someone had aired me up with an air hose . I'm a very large woman anyway at 230 lbs, but add 30 lbs to that and you've got gigantic. I took myself to the hospital emergency room. Well, the emergency room doctor looked at me up and down, after I had told him that I was puffy, and said. ‘Are you sure you're not just fat?’ I said, ‘Yes I'm fat, but two weeks ago I was 30 lbs. lighter.’ So, after a CAT scan, an MRI , and numerous blood tests they agreed there was fluid in there and admitted me to the hospital...

Anyway, to make a long story short: After visiting many various specialists I found out that I had a diseased liver from all the medication I had taken for years: cholesterol, blood pressure, etc.  I guess those cholesterol meds can do a number on your liver, which I don't understand, because the doctor did periodic blood tests to check for liver damage.  Why hadn't someone noticed it before it became a serious problem? Anyway, here I am with a healed heart and a sick liver.

I came across DrNatura when I was searching about fasting. I was looking for something that could help get this big bloated belly down. By the way, I've always had a big belly, since after my first child was born. I feel so blessed that I found DrNatura because I feel that it is also a gift from God...  I know it wasn't an accident that I happened on DrNatura's site.  What could have possessed me to go looking for fasting information?  I've done a lot of fasting in my days, but I was looking for a juice fast I could use for a long period of time.  Well, the Lord had other ideas and here I am. After reading the testimonies I truly believe that DrNatura will be a blessing to me. I thank God for what you've done for others.

I just ordered the Colonix and Toxinout but after talking to customer service, Sheena advised me that due to my very toxic condition I should begin with the Colonix program and do the Toxinout at a later time.  She explained that when someone is very toxic, doing both can overload the lymph system and make the cleanse very uncomfortable.  She also advised me to take the FloraProtect along with the Colonix even if I'm not taking the Toxinout at this time.
I would like to thank Sheena and customer service for all their professional advice.  I actually have my own consultant.  How wonderful! I'll be sending an update as soon as I start the program.

Pat’s update...

Well, I finally received the Colonix program.  I wish I had paid for the next day service.  I almost went crazy waiting for it to arrive.  I spent those days just reading testimonies.

The program arrived late in the afternoon so I'll wait and take the Kleritea before I go to bed tonight.
I found the tea to be very delicious.  I prefer my tea without sweetener so I drank it 'as is.' It had a slight natural sweetness, very soothing, very tasty.  Well, it's off to bed to begin my new life tomorrow.  I can't wait to see how things 'come out.'

Day 1 : Here I am, finally, the first day of my cleanse, and I was up early.  I had a pretty rough night.  Another one of those fidgety nights where I feel very restless.  I feel like 'things' are crawling on my skin and I itch at times.  I just feel like I need to get out of my skin, like one would react to a wool jacket.  I finally calmed and slept, waking up at 4:00 am to urinate. Stomach is bloated as usual.  It's always been very depressing to wake up each morning feeling like I just ate a big Thanksgiving feast. It's now 6:00am and I'm debating whether or not to begin my cleanse at this time.  I need to run some errands this morning and I'm not sure how my body will react to the fiber.

I decided to start the Colonix now anyway; the errands can wait. I took the 2 Paranil with a full 8oz of water, 15 min. later I mixed 1/2 scoop of the fiber in a little water and drank it down. I don't like to prolong the process.  I can't afford to use unnecessary calories and time trying to cover the taste. I don’t plan on leaving it in my mouth that long. Drank my 8oz of water down also. The faster I get it all down the faster it can start working. The taste wasn't bad and had the texture of a good tomato juice. Now I wait and see what happens.

It's been 32 min. since taking the Colonix fiber and I'm beginning to feel a little rumbling in my lower belly . I'm thinking the fiber will have quite a trip making it's way through all that debris. I imagine it to be somewhat like an earthworm digging a new tunnel thru hard and rocky soil. Very slow going.

8:53 am : Had first bm. Regular, small.  Just the salad and fresh fruit salad I ate for supper yesterday.  Nothing substantial yet.  Beginning to worry a little. Looking for anything that compares to the testimonies.

9:40 am : Another small bm.  Still last night’s meal, still pushing out small pencil size stool with great difficulty.  I eat a lot of fresh veggies and fruit and never could understand how I could eat only fresh foods all day long and still be constipated. I decided to get my errands done.  Came home and brewed myself a cup of herbal tea, but didn't get to drink it because the urge to go was there. Just another small bm; still last night’s supper and difficult to expel.

12:28 pm : Still nothing substantial. I'm a little concerned about increasing my water due to my water retention problem, so I'll increase a little at a time making sure my body can tolerate it. I plan on increasing the tea steeping to 5 min. tonight. It's not been a profitable day.  

Well, it's 9:40 pm and I'm getting tired.  Guess I'll drink my tea and go to bed.  See ya tomorrow.

Day 2 : I rested better last night, only took a little while to fall asleep.  I went to bed at 10:30 , very early for me, I usually sit up until sometimes 2:00 am . I was actually tired and ready to sleep.  However, my daughter, who is used to me being up late, decided to call me to just say hello at 1:00 am .  She was just on her way home from work. It took me a little while to go back to sleep.  I woke up at 8:15 am still very, very tired.  I also woke up with a very dry mouth. I kept coughing thru out the night, having to take a sip of water to moisten my throat.

1:37 pm : Still no great results and no great urge to 'unload' when I first get up.  May have to increase the steeping time of the KleriTea tonight.  Had one small bm and still needing to strain to push it out.  Looks like this is gonna take a few days.  I had a total of two bm's today.  Not great, but good for me.  I'll keep you updated each day until I begin to see amazing things happening.  Just a matter of time...see you tomorrow.

Day 3 : I steeped the KleriTea for ten minutes last night and I really enjoyed a restful sleep. I went to sleep so fast that I don't remember when I closed my eyes.  Of course it was after 1:00 am when I finally went to bed, not because I wasn't tired, but because I had my evening meal so very late last night that it threw my schedule off. I had a small bm this morning right after doing my fiber. My bm's seem to be softer and a little easier to push out, but I'm still not experiencing a total 'unload,' nor have I noticed anything  'big' in the toilet. No visible worms or eggs but my stool does look different, more stringy. Could be worms, but I haven't dug through it yet.  Still using a lot of toilet paper to clean up. Since I do eat a lot of salads and fruit, it's difficult to distinguish between strands of lettuce and worms, and tomatoes and red flukes.

Question: It has always amazed me; why you can eat a green salad and have yellow poop?  It reminds me of the brown cow, eats green grass, and produces white milk. Just a mystery of nature I guess. I have noticed that my stomach isn't quite as bloated.  Very slightly, but noticeable to me. I've also had a lot of rectal itching, something I hadn't noticed as much before the  cleanse.  I don't seem as irritable as I was.  I do feel tired at times and I've been having aches and pains here and there throughout my body. Only problem is, I had all that before the cleanse. The only difference is these pains I'm feeling now are much sharper.  Sometimes like a stabbing pain.  Today I feel a pain in my right side that I always thought was my diseased liver.  Today it has moved down and hurts in another spot...Interesting. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.  See you then.

Day 4 : I woke up this morning feeling good.  I was actually able to get things done around the house.  Amazing in itself. Less than 25 minutes after taking the Paranil and Colonix fiber I had to head for the bathroom.  Nothing urgent, but necessary soon, if you know what I mean.  The volume of the bm was a lot more than usual, stringy and lumpy and very colorful. It happened so fast that I was surprised to see so much in the toilet.

3:30 pm : Wow, what happened? Suddenly I'm feeling very tired and sleepy that I can hardly keep my eyes open.  I feel exhausted, dizzy and a little nauseous.  My stomach is very bloated today since after lunch. I fixed myself an eggwhite omelette. Yes, an eggwhite omelette. It makes the best low fat and cholesterol omelette ever.  Put veggies, (onion, green pepper, fresh mushrooms) or your choice of veggies, in a spray-oiled non stick skillet, break the egg whites on top of the veggies, season to your liking with salt and pepper, (don't need to whip egg whites)the eggs cook up nice and fluffy.  You may then add low fat cheese of your choice and top with salsa if you like....delicious! Sorry, but you know how grandma's are with their recipes.  

Anyway, since I've started the Colonix program I haven't been bloating up as much as usual , until today.  I'm so bloated today that I can hardly breathe. I only had a salad for my evening meal and I still feel miserable. Had a large bm around 8:00 pm but not enough to take down the bloating.  I did see a lot of long spinach looking things in the stool.  I eat spinach but I don't remember swallowing such large, long pieces. Well, it's getting late, so off to bed I go.  By the way, after drinking my tea, (I now steep it for 10 min.) my stomach 'feels' better, but still bloated.  See you tomorrow.

Day 5 : Slept late this morning.  I was just too tired to get out of bed.  Didn't rest well last night.  My stomach was so bloated that I couldn't get comfortable.  I never know why my stomach does that.  Sometimes I can eat the same things from day to day and at times my stomach will bloat more than usual.  Could be my liver acting up, or maybe the little fellows that have set up housekeeping in my bowels have a little to do with it.  Well, today I will give them their first eviction notice.

I had my first bm before I took my Paranil and fiber. Very strange things in there.  Among the stringy spinach pile was a hard lump about the size of a man's thumb.  I tried breaking it up, and after some difficulty I managed to break it in half.  Looked to me like old poop.  It was as hard as a rock and very dark in color. I don't feel so bloated now.  Aaaaaah!  How do you spell 'relief'? See you tomorrow.

Day 6 : What a lousy night! I'm not sure why, but I could not get to sleep last night.  I had a little itching and feeling a little restless. I steeped my tea for 12 min. instead of ten, but I don't think that could be the reason. Well, today I increased my fiber to 1&1/2 scoops, and started on my 4 Paranil.  We'll see what develops.  I'm not experiencing the total 'unload' that everyone talks about.  Yesterday I only had one large bm.  I'm still very bloated, but thinking a lot of it is water bloat since I'm not able to take any of my diuretics while on the cleanse.  I think I'll go back to just 8 glasses a day instead of 9 or ten. Apparently my body won't tolerate that much.  

I have noticed a couple of things though.  First of all, my legs aren't as painful as they were before I started the cleanse. The calves of my legs were tight and painful, and at night while sleeping, if I just moved slightly, I would get the worse cramps in the calves of my legs, the worst cramps I've experienced in my life. The whole calf of my leg would knot up, or my toes would cramp, as well as the arch of my feet.  I would have to remember to exercise my legs before going to bed.  I'd sit with my legs stretched out before me and twist my ankles one way and then another and up and down. If I forgot to do that before bed, I would experience terrible cramps. Praise God and Colonix, I don't have the tightness or pain as much as I did.  It seems to be almost non existent.

Another thing: In the past year I've developed problems with my sinuses.  Every morning I would have and hour session of blowing, hacking and spitting until my head was clear.  Very nasty. Recently, about the last two days, I haven't had as much problems with it.  It's funny how I didn't pick up on that right away.

So anyway, two down, and several to go. Thank you DrNatura! Ok, here we go.  I took the Paranil and Colonix fiber about 1/2 hour ago and I'm feeling the urge, see ya later!

I'm back.  Not sure what I saw in the toilet this time, a lot of strange colors and shapes, and a lot of that long spinach stuff.  By the way, what is that spinach looking stuff anyway?  

9:23 pm : Well, I guess I'm only going to have one large bm a day. It looks like I'm only getting rid of what I ate the day before.  Actually, that's pretty good for me.  I'm still bloated, and have had a mild case of heartburn for the last two days.  I haven't had much to eat today because of my bloated belly. I expect things will break through soon, and when they do, as my husband so sweetly put it: ‘I won't get in your way.’  He thanks God that we have three bathrooms.  Bless his little heart.

It's getting late, time to steep the tea.  I think I'll experiment with 15 min. this time with the tea and see if it works better for me...see you tomorrow.

Day 6 : I slept better last night, went right to sleep.  However, I woke up at 1:30 am cramping and had to finally give in and head for the toilet.  Wow! This time there was some of that intestine looking stuff in there, along with the spinach stuff and a lot of other strange looking things.  At that time of the morning I didn't take a lot of time looking. Now it is 12:46 pm in the afternoon and I have not had a bm yet this morning.  I guess the 1:30 am was my morning bm. I usually go a little while after taking my fiber.

I finally had two more large bm's today and they were all filled with a lot of the spinach looking things and slimy globs of stuff.  Now I feel I have the program working for me . I haven't seen any parasites or worms yet, but it's still early.  I'll keep you updated as things 'move' along. I've learned to not become discouraged or depressed if things don't work for you as they have others.  We're all individuals and we each react at a different pace to the program.  Keep the faith. If it's working for me with all my medical history, it'll work for you as well. I'll be checking in with updates. I can't send a picture, I don't have a camera. See you in a month.

Pat’s update...

This is my third week on the Colonix program and I'm seeing great results. My weight is down ten pounds and I'm feeling almost human again . For the last two days I have passed what others have described as ‘anaconda-sized’ stool.  I don’t think I've ever passed anything that large before.  It looked like a very large snake curled up in the toilet.  Of course, I had to go digging through it with my handy dandy coat hanger.  What I found was several long pieces of the 'seaweed' stuff, that I have referred to as 'spinach stuff.’  A lot of egg sacs also.

The great thing about the Colonix fiber and the Kleritea is the ease with which you can eliminate such large masses of bms without any discomfort.  It happens so fast it always amazes me to see the amount. It is so great to be feeling so much better.  

Today the two little grandchildren that live across the street from me came to visit. They are 3 & 5 years old. I felt so good that I was up, full of energy, wrestling and playing with them.  It makes me weep to think of how much I have missed spending time with my grandchildren like that . Praise God and DrNatura for making that possible again!  I can’t wait to see how I'll feel in another nine weeks.  I'll check in later.

“Greetings!  This is Pat again, and today is the last day of my first month on the DrNatura cleanse. It has been a wonderful experience watching the changes that have taken place in my body in the last month. I have continued to pass old fecal material along with what looked like a very long worm, smaller in diameter than an earth worm, but shiny and near the same color.  The part that looked like it might be its head was shaped a little like a snails head. I haven't passed anything real odd yet, just the braid of long worms, some black liver like things and a lot of small egg sacs, and of course the long spinach looking stuff.

I'm feeling so much better.   When I wake up in the morning, which is earlier than before, I actually feel rested and get right out of bed . Before the cleanse I would lay in bed and dread getting up because it hurt so much to move. I still have days where my joints hurt, or I feel totally exhausted, but I believe that to be the detox at work. My stomach is still very large but has gone down some, and a lot softer than before. I have lost a total of 15 lbs. this first month . I believe that when I finally begin to expel those 'dinosaur critters', my stomach will begin to shrink in size and the bloated feeling will leave completely. I refer to them as dinosaur because of how many years they must have been in my system.

One of the wonderful things I've experienced is the ability to enjoy salt again without retaining a lot of water . I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the cleanse, or the fact that I'm now using natural sea salt to season my food. It seems like my body tolerates the sea salt better. I'm one of those people who crave salt, not sugar. Since I still have those cravings I'm sure I haven't expelled the parasites that are responsible. Time will heal.

My two Pugs aren't as pleased with me as before because I don't leave my bed and head for the sofa and sit all day. That is where they want to be, on my lap.  They can't do that when I'm up stirring around. I'm sure they'll get used to it.  Well, I guess I'll leave you for now, but I'll check in again at the end of my second month. I can't wait to see what happens. Stay faithful to yourself.

Pat’s update...

Well, here I am just starting my third month of Colonix cleanse . I am so grateful to DrNatura for they're wonderful products. My second month was very profitable. I now take two scoops of the fiber. It works well for me.  My bm's are lighter in color and weight (they seem to float) and the volume is greater. Sometimes, I have several bm's in a day . Fantastic! In the mornings I experience that 'unloaded' feeling. I actually feel empty to begin my day. What a wonderful feeling! 

I'm still passing large masses of some sort of long 'earthworm' looking things, and an occasional string of old fecal 'intestine' looking things . I saw what looked like a flat worm, light in color, about five or six inches long. I didn't see the head so I know there is more to come.  Gotta get that head. I can always tell when there are 'yucky' things in the stool, because of the smell...WOW!

I steep my tea for 30 minutes now. I'm not sure if it makes a difference after the first ten or fifteen minutes, but it's working for me.I haven't lost anymore weight as of yet, but am still hopeful. I'm resting better and through the night, which is fantastic for me . I do take my diuretic and the rest of my medication, but I take them two hours before my fiber in the morning. My house is looking cleaner, and all is well. Thank you DrNatura! See you next month.

Pat’s update...

Greetings again! Well, I've finished my three month cleanse with the Colonix package, and Imust say it has been an exciting adventure. I began the Toxinout on my third month of the cleanse, and have notexperienced any side effects that was not tolerable. I have had some days where I was very weak but was able to rest on thosedays. I plan on doing another cleanse in three months. Then every 6 months forawhile. Eventually I'll settle for once a year. I still find it hard to believe that three months got rid of 'all' ofthe creatures living in my intestines.

I have a less than two months remaining on my Toxinout, and I canalready feel a great difference. My skin has cleared up some. I especially notice it on my face. I don't see as much redness or splotchy discoloration as before. My arms are not as dry and flaky looking, and the white crusty bumpsthat are all over my legs and feet seem to be drying up and I've been able to scrape them off. Not all of them, but I see a difference. My legs and arms feel smootherand less bumpy as before. My eyes seem clearer than before and much brighter. I'm excited to see how things improve after the three months. I havegreat expectations considering the improvement I've already seen.

My stomach has decreased in size so much so that I can now determinebloat from fat. I've learned I have a lot of fat to lose. (That's another story.) I have lost a total of 15 lbs. Not as much as I had hoped, but a good start. I'm now on a diet to lose more weight. The bloating has gone down in my stomach and I have a total unloading ofmy bowels each morning, and sometimes again in the evening.

I feel that DrNatura has given me a new lease on life and a jump starton correcting my weight problem. I never want to feel bloated and tired like I did before the Colonixcleanse. I'm now able to take my two small grandchildren to the park on Sunday after church and interact with them. My husband and I can again enjoy the children together. Praise God for DrNatura!

My brother-in-law ordered a three month supply of the Colonix. He plans on ordering the Toxinout at a later time. He was pleased tohear the results I was having. Most people you tell about the Colonix experience want to wait and see if it works before they invest in the program. Thanks again DrNatura for such wonderful products that REALLY work. Take care, and be faithful to yourself.

My Cleansing Journal

I have been fairly healthy most of my life (at least I thought I was). I have always loved eating veggies and greens growing up. I grew up with learning how to cook my own sauces & soups etc from scratch. I eat a fairly high fiber diet (not restaurant food often). I have always had daily and regular BM’s, so I felt I did not really need a Cleanse (or so I thought). I did however grow up (for about 6 years of my early life) with a German shepherd dog which licked our hands and face often and no one in the family ever thought of where did he lick prior to licking us – we even shared our ice cream. So possibly part of the parasite infestation came at an early age. Also I had two wild outside cats that traveled all day long and killed mice & rats and who knows what else and then they came home every evening to eat and sleep and licked my hands as well – so who knows what rat they had just killed and if parasites were passed on to me? I don’t know if this is far fetched but I have done so much reading on parasites that it is probable. Also our father many times during the hot summers would take us swimming in a stagnant lake in the city (everyone went there) I have read that parasites can also be caught this way as well. Especially if ducks and geese land there and have their young on the pond.

My sister was on a (Canadian) all herbal cleanse. She mentioned that a certain brand was the best one she had discovered (at least in Canada ). I went to the health food store and they recommended the same one. But before I purchased the Canadian cleanse I had also found the DrNatura site while doing research on cleanses and the testimonials had a real impact on me. I kept going back to your website and I could not forget all the testimonials. I decided to order the 3 month supply of Colonix for its ability to kill parasites and also a 2 month supply of the Toxinout to detoxify my body of metals, mercury, chlorine build up, aluminum poisoning from fluoride toothpaste, the aluminum in underarm deodorant etc. and the poison that is released from the metal in my cavity fillings and whatever other foreign toxins and carcinogens which are part of our shampoo and daily face crèmes that should not be stored up in my body.

One doctor's website which I read said that your body stockpiles toxins and one day it is a symptom and then it is a disease. Another doctors website said that they are starting to believe that anywhere from 85% - 95% of diseases could be from parasite infestation. I also started to read the ingredients in my shampoo and was shocked and at all the solvents like Benzene, Probyl alcohol and sodium lauryl sulphate etc which I read in one parasite website that those solvents cause the eggs of the parasites to hatch immediately. Even though I had switched to salt rock underarm deodorant 23 years ago and have used fluoride free toothpaste for years now, I knew that the toxins and aluminum poisoning just does not leave on its own. I realized I needed to detoxify.

The product which I purchased from the health food store in Canada did some cleansing as I noticed some pimples came out on my face and shoulders and my BM’s were a bit smellier than normal andoccasional bad breath. However while doing it I had to get to the bathroom fairly quickly and I could not be too far from a toilet. The cleanse I was on did notaddressthe issue of parasites at all or total detoxifying of all my organs liver kidneys and blood etc. I was on it for 2 weeks from Sunday Nov. 12 th to Sun. Nov. 26 th 2006, but I did not feel any better than when I had started it.I still felt sluggish and tired and bloated with gas. And I still had a plugged up feeling.

Finally my Colonix order arrived . I started the Colonix on November 27 th. I decided to wait out a month before starting the Toxinout to unplug my colon first. I also read to take Epsom Salt Baths when Detoxifying as it draws the poisons out. It also helps to relax the muscles and the magnesium helps to draw out Toxins.

Day 1 on Colonix, November 27 th – of the Colonix Cleanse: Took my 2 Paranil pills and about 20 min. later I took my fiber. Evacuation of bowels occurred immediately; but I always have a daily bowel movement (so no surprises yet). Two more BM’s on the first day. Other than that nothing eventful except a tiny bit woozy feeling and slightly bad breath. Steeped my tea for about 4 min. but I made 2 cups out of the same bag and the second cup was steeped about 10 min…

Day 2 - Some minor cramps in my intestines in the morning while laying in bed – a very slight headache –I feel like I have a little more energy (maybe it’s my imagination) I’ll see how I feel tomorrow. Within about 20 – 25 minutes, an unusually large BM and smelly - It’s working better in two days than the other cleanse did in two weeks! Flu like symptoms are developing. A cold sore,sneezing, tired etc. I must be detoxifying already. Mid-morning - another BM – smelly again. I steeped my tea for about 4 min. and left the bag in the water for a second cup for about 10 min.

Day 3 - Some straining occurred this morning to evacuate my bowels – again smellier than usual. I also have a headache (a good indication the cleanse is working) accompanied by flu like symptoms. Tired no energy and I still am experiencing some bad breath. I have noticed less gas. I am Steeping my tea now for about 8 -10 min.

Day 4 – I took my Paranil and I feel like I need to go to the washroom but it just won’t happen yet, possibly after the fiber. I was straining a little again to have my first BM this morning. Tired no energy and still have some bad breath.

Day 5 - I had a bad night last night. My tummy/intestines were grumbling and a headache. Had to get up at 1:50 a.m. to drink about 2 or 3 glasses of water because I was parched.Then two more glasses of water around 3:30 am . I cannot stick to the 8 glasses of water right now as my body is screaming for water. Got up and had the two Paranil. I had my first evacuation right after the Paranil but before the fiber the BM was a bit of a strain and smelly. The headaches and flu like symptoms are not normal for me. I never have headaches. So something is happening in my body. I know it is for my good so I will keep up the 3 month program, no matter what! 4 BM’s before breakfast and one after – now that’s not normal for me. Then one more late at night before bed at about 10:50 p.m. Old and new feces came out mixed together. No worms in site yet (possibly they are microscopic?). Still tired and no real energy. Still have pimples coming out and still have a slightly coated tongue (that is an indication I need to detoxify my body). I can hardly wait to start the Toxinout.

Day 6 - 4 Paranil today & one full scoop of fiber. No BM even 1 – 2 hours after the fiber - also I have gained 2 lbs since I started – why does everyone report weight loss and I see 2 lbs weight gain? Good grief! No matter I am determined to see this through to the end and I know it is helping me. Had another BM at about 8:30 p.m. and it was smellier than before I started the program.

Day 7 - Had an evacuation in the a.m. and in the p.m. Strange looking is all I can say.

Day 8 – I am having some severe cramps this morning. I have had one bowel evacuation already this morning – but I can tell there is more that needs to come out and it feels trapped in my large intestine. IFound out from e-mailing DrNatura that I was steeping the tea too long – hence the terrible cramps. And I also found out I was drinking too much water after the fiber. After my 4 th BM a surge of energy from out of no where came into me – felt wonderful.I would like to thank your office and staff at drnatura that answered my e-mail – the cramps subsided after I steeped my tea for only 6 -7 min or so.

Day 9 – Good day today. At least 3 BM’s.

Day 10 -  I believe I passed parasites or something unusual. 2 BM’s today

Day 11  - 2 BM’s today. Finally got my tea steeping time about right.

Day 12  - Noticeably more energy today … Feeling better and no more headaches.. Breath is better and no more pimples. 4 BM’s today and after my evening tea - some form of parasites came in the stool. White little round things yuk !

Day 13 – I ordered 2 more Fibers for after the cleanse is over and 2 bottles of Probiotics to treat the gas and bloating. BM this morning had some small round white things (not so normal) and another in the afternoon with more parasites.- good grief!

Day 14 – About 2 bowel movements – itchy bum – so possibly some parasites passed in the stool. I started my Flora protect Pro-biotics tonight and decided to have an Epsom salt bath to kill any external parasites and to disinfect my whole body and relax my muscles. It also helps to pull out toxins from the body – so this will be a regular treat until this cleanse is over.

Day 15 – Had about 4 bowel movements – some slight wooziness and slight cramping in my intestines (approx. in the mid stomach area). After the last BM the cramps diminished – feels like something is working its way out. Took two more probiotic pills at night and another Epsom salt bath.

Day 16 – Did not go to the bathroom in the morning. Took 2 probiotic pills in the morning and the gas has continued. Went for lunch with friends. Took two more probiotics before supper. I noticed hardly any gas today. I wonder if the probiotics are starting to work? I feel so energetic today. Really wonderful.Found out I should be taking my probiotic pills at night about an hour after supper or before bed on an empty stomach.

Day 17 - Had 3 or so BM’s.

Day 18 - Had about 4 BM’s – Where is all this stuff coming from!! No wonder I felt plugged up and tired!

Day 19 - I passed some strange looking parasites incased in the side of the feces. Then later very black with fresher looking stool. Glad it’s out of me and not sitting in my intestines making worms!!

Day 20 - Small white round parasites daily are appearing in the stool. No wonder I’ve been tired for the last few years.

Day 24 - I finally noticed that my waist is showing up a little more and the small bulges on the side of my waist are slightly diminished as well.

Day 25 - 3 BM’s in the morning. Arope-like very dark rubbery looking thing came out first thing in a.m. (about 8’inces long X 1 ½’ inches wide) and it floated on the water…I don’t know what it is – but not normal for sure. Within 5 min I had to have another BM and it seemed like normal but softer feces and then 5 min after that I had to have another BM – seemed like it had some round small white parasites in it the third time. 2 - 3 more bowel evacuations for a total of 6 or 7 today. Good grief when will it all end!?

Day 27 - I continued to pass some small round parasites again today – at least 3 BM’s - feeling tired a bit – with all that in a person it’s no wonder we are tired.

Day 28 - 3 B.M’s

Day 29 - I passed possibly a small looking white worm (about 1’ long) in the stool and small white egg looking things incased in the feces again!

Day 30 - My last day before the 5 day break. 3 BM’s so far today. The stool was very dark mixed with light.

5 Day Rest Period - Skip Paranil and Kleritea today and start my Toxinout program today!

Day 31  – had 2 BM’s already today – didn’t see any parasites (could be microscopic of course ) but the 3 rd one at noon had small white round things – seems to be worms – tired feeling – but I am starting my 1 st day of Toxinout today. I feel more energetic on the 1 st day of the Toxinout cleanse – I will see what tomorrow holds in store.

Day 32 – 2 nd day of Toxinout and 2 nd day of rest period from Colonix. Today I have severe headaches and raw throat. A total full blown flu which started about 4 days ago. 3 BM’s before lunch – 1 after . I have had to drink a ton of boiled fresh grated ginger with lemon and a bit of honey for my throat – this is on top of the 8 glasses of water

Days 33, 34 - I am still very sick with a flu. Could also be a part of the cleansing.but I heard that many people I know have it. I noticed that I am passing parasites in the stool. I have been washing bedding and towels and facecloths frequently and using hot water and bleach a lot more. Bleaching all toilets in the house. I added about 3/4 scoop of fiber at night before going to bed. I was up half the night evacuating my bowels. I am sure I have had at least 8 or 9 bowel movements since last night within 15 hours and it is not even noon yet. Some of the evacuations had little white parasite-type eggs I’m not sure what it is but so glad they are out. I have felt wonderful today even though I am suffering with the flu. A light headed feeling and like a burden is lifting from my body.My thinking seems clearer today.

Day 35 - I can’t wait to get back to killing those pesky little parasite critters in my intestines. I still have noisy wars going on in my intestines. I think it’sParanil vs the Parasites and they seem to be tied at the moment. I know the Paranil will win – but I will be doing this cleanse at least once a year minimum from now on and the Toxin out as well with it. I have told many friends and even some business associates. One friend is already on it and we compare notes every few days. My gas and bloating have calmed down a little – but not entirely. I think there will be a huge difference after the second month. I am so thankful I found the DrNatura site surfing for a cleanse. I knew it was the right one after reading all the testimonials.

Day 36 – Resume the Paranil and Kleri tea today. I have felt lighter and cleaner lately – like a big load off of my body and mind!

Day 37 - Today is a much better day. I feel like my tummy is flatter and some chub has gone from around my waist! I feel cleaner inside and lighter physically and mentally. I know I’m on the mend now. 3 BM’s already before noon. Had another Epsom salt bath and drinking my water….Still have gas.

Day 38 -  Still fighting a bad flu but the cleanse is going well. I am having at least 3 – 4 BM a day and sometimes 5. I saw a very strange looking specie in my toilet last night. Some kind of round oval thing the size of a half-dime with a very thin body and feathery tentacles looking things at the end about 1’ long and I’m sure it left part of it’s family behind – thank goodness the Paranil will get them.

Day 39 - I felt jerking, flipping and fluttering in my upper tummy area. Definite jerking in the intestines – you’ve never seen anyone get out of bed as fast as I did when that happened. Then two smelly BM’s with weird looking things in it this morning.

Day 40 - More parasites passed in my stool last night. I had bleach in my toilet bowl and I could see little explosions of things letting go from the stool in the bowl and then floating. It was ugly but it is finally out of me. My Flu has moved down to my chest area and I am taking Epsom salt baths daily now as the magnesium not only helps to pull poison from my system and ease the muscles but also the salt disinfects the entire outer skin area. I had about 5 BM’s today (wow not normal).

Day 41 - 5 BM’s today and I noticed mixed coloured feces and I believe I am still passing parasites. I feel I am over the hump almost and on the mend. My flu is leaving and on it’s way out as well. I feel more energetic today as well.

Day 42 - Today I did another experiment with some bleach (Often I have bleach waiting in the toilet bowl for any half dead parasites) The stool looked unusual. Sure enough all kinds of weird looking little creatures started to bubble out of the stool – it looked like a chemistry experiment with everything bubbling in the toilet bowl. I can’t wait to be rid of these parasites – I wish I could go 4 months on Colonix – but only 3 months are recommended…

Day 43 - Finally my energy level is returning . My flu is almost completely gone and now I can feel how really well I am. I am so thankful I found the Colonix site and am dealing with the parasite issue in my intestines and who knows where else the parasites had logged in my body? I have read enough now to know that parasites can mimic diseases of all kinds. I have noticed a few recognizable parasites because I went to the website that shows images of what they look like at http://home.austarnet.com.au/wormman/wlimages.htm. I am so very thankful for the Colonix cleanse by DrNatura. Thank you!!

Day 44 - My flu like symptoms are still hanging on. But I know I am getting better – I am still passing parasites in the stool and can’t wait until it’s over. I have decided to do 2 more months of the Colonix cleanse in 8 months or so after my 3 month cleanse is up in February – most likely in October of ‘07 and then Colonix and Toxinout once a year for one month at a time thereafter. I hardly have any gas any longer and not as much bloating. Thanks to drnatura and the probiotics.

Days 45, 46  - 4 – 5 BM’s per day. My energy level is coming back slowly - I’ve just gotten over the flu. Oh yes the dark circles under my eyes are gone and my skin looked radiant today. No weight loss yet (I am not a large person), but that’s not why I am doing this cleanse – it was to lower the parasite burden on my body and to detoxify – which is happening. Weight loss will be a side benefit if it happens <smile> however I did pass an unusual looking parasite today (do any of them look normal?) which was easily seen and about 1 ½ inches long and pure white. It floated to the surface when I added bleach to the toilet bowl. The stomach has totally quieted down and there seems to be no more gas or internal gurgling sounds. There are so many benefits on this cleanse – thank you once again to the office of Drnatura!

Days 47, 48 -  The Gas seems to be reoccurring (not as bad as in the beginning) but it seems to be more than it has been for the last two weeks or so. I am feeling more energetic and the flu is gone. I feel cleaner inside and I have now lost about 3 lbs. I am still having 3 or so BM’s per day. Today the bleach fussed up with one of the bowel movements. My intestines have remained quiet so that is good.

Days 49, 50 - I am starting to finally feel cleaner inside and lighter. Unfortunately another virus/flu butg seems to be at me again. 4 BM’s before breakfast & 2 after lunch. Could be I was catching every virus out there because my body couldn’t fight back and was over burdened with the parasite infestation? I don’t know for sure but from what I’ve read from different sites on the internet it is all possible.

Days 51, 52 - I had two BM’s in the morning and took an Epsom salt bath at noon to help pull toxins from my body. Flu like symptoms are happening again and I am very tired. Today I strained a bit on the first BM before breakfast – I use bleach in the toilet water often now as I want to see if there are any parasites that float away from the stool. There was again this morning. And the 2 nd BM there was a ropy thing come out that I needed to help pull out with tissue paper – not part of the stool at all. It looks like hardened lining from my intestines. I believe it is called Mucoid Plaque– (mucoid plaque is to be eliminated.  When you eat foods made of flour and sugar, your body produces mucus.  This mucus can harden and stick to the intestinal walls.) 3 BM’s before lunch already and there still are parasites in the stool.

Day 53 - Today I had more Mucoid Plaque leave my intestines – it looked like some ropy dark intestines. I will probably absorb nutrients better once it is all out. 3 BM’s before lunch, the third was the smelliest and for the first time I noticed some parasites that looked like worms in the stool (about 1 ½ to 2 inches long). I am starting to feel quite energetic I should have been in bed and asleep and I couldn’t stop running around the house doing things today. Bloating and gas are hardly a problem anymore. The Toxinout is working as the urine in the last two days is darker – I have not changed my eating habits at all. More rope-like Mucoid Plaque again before bedtime (never a lot comes out but at least it is coming out). My Tummy is flatter than it has been in years as well (what a bonus!).

Day 54 - I have noticed pimples again on my upper back and my neck and one on my face (not normal for me). My body is obviously detoxifying and I am very happy about that. First BM was very dark this morning. I have been running around the house again this morning with so much energy – feels wonderful.

Days 55, 56, 57, 58, 59 - Urine was quite smelly this morning as well as bad breath and I know now that the Toxinout is really working. 3- 4 BM’s today. 3 BM’s – last one had more mucoid plaque; 4 BM’s - Parasites today as well. Urine has cleared up. Pimples are leaving as well; I had 4 BM’s before breakfast and 1 BM after breakfast and one later at night; I still have parasites in the BM’s … I am thankful I ordered 3 moths worth of the cleanse to carry me through; I am still passing parasites in the stool. I also notice ashen light grey mucoid plaque come out with the stool. Amazing that stuff is also in there. I am feeling cleaner inside and my tummy has gone down – it is flatter now.

Days 61-65 - 5 Day Rest Period (No Paranil or Tea) - 3 BM’s before breakfast. My 2 nd cold sore is leaving. My flu is gone and I am getting some energy back finally. My urine is still darker than normal but that’s ok as it means the Toxinout is working fine. I wrote to the office of DrNatura regarding all the flu like symptoms and their reply really helped me to know it was the detoxification process and that when the lympth glands are overburdened that flu like symptoms can come on. So was I ever toxic. Once the toxins leave the body – then the flu-like symptoms leave as well. I am so very thankful for the cleanse and I do still see parasites in the stool. If I still see them at the end of the 3 rd month then I will continue with the Paranil and the fiber for another month thereafter. The e-mail explained that the Kleri-tea has to be stopped after the 3 months and your body given a break from it but that the Paranil can be taken for up to 5 months but not longer in one stretch as the parasites and the candida get used to it. Kind of immune to it. Hence the necessity for the break. They also explained to me in the e-mail that the yellow colour of the urine is the detoxygreen – antioxidants are working and it’s like eating a lot of veggies and fruits…which tend to colour the urine. Thanks to the office of DrNatura for helping me to understand what is happening and not to worry over it!

Day 61 - 2 BM’s before breakfast and 1 after. Feeling better – flu like symptoms are subsiding – I am so thankful to be cleansing my body of Toxins. My cold sore is healing already. The pimples which came out on my neck and face are gone as well.

Days 62-66 - Still 2 – 4 BM’s per day. Feeling better and better day by day.

Day 67 - Starting my 3 rd month of the Colonix. - 5 BM’s today. I have already had 3 BM’s before breakfast – one before lunch and then in the evening as well. It is difficult to imagine that so much waste can come out of one person’sintestines.I am starting to feel energetic again (even without exercising). I am feeling lighter and clearer headed and even my sight has improved. I forget to wear my glasses for distance driving and for lectures.  I still need them – but not as much as before.  I also read that it was aired on the discovery channel that it is the microscopic parasites that are the real killers not necessarily the ones we can see.  So whether we see the parasites or not we need to get rid of them. Thank you to the office of DrNatura for helping me through this cleanse.

Day 68 -   My tummy is flatter and my natural body curves are looking much better. I still notice some small and extremely tiny parasites in the stool when I add bleach and wait about 5 minutes. It kills and dislodges some of the parasites in the stool and they float dead to the surface. I noticed a very small white worm today – but where there is one there’s probably more. If you want to identify some of the parasites the website I found is http://home.austarnet.com.au/wormman/wlimages.htm.

Days 69-76 - Only 2 BM’s on Feb 3 – I feel plugged up. And on the morning of Feb the 4 th some mucoid plaque was one of the first things that came out at the end of the 1 st bowel movement. Then after that I had 3 more bowel movements during the morning and evening and felt much better; I have already had 2 bowel movements before breakfast and one shortly after. My thinking is clearer and even my vision has improved. I have not lost an ounce since I started this cleanse (which is unbelievable considering what has come out of me). But I did not do this cleanse for weight loss and it’s not over yet; More Mucoid plaque today with BM’s. Three BM’s before breakfast; More of the same; 3 Bm’s today and I am feeling much cleaner inside. I waited to make sure and it is definitely true that my eye sight is better. I have not needed my driving glasses now for about 2 weeks. At lectures I can read the big print – whereas before I could not. I am feeling better as well. If for only that alone it was worth it; Not as many BM’s anymore – I must have cleaned the intestines out pretty much. Averaging at least 2 – 3 BM’s per day – and not as much. I noticed less fuzzing in the toilet bowl when I add bleach to the water with the stool in it. My energy level is starting to really improve – I am so happy. No pimples – no coated tongue – no headaches – no twitching in the intestines – no Paranil verses parasite wars gurgling in the intestines – Almost no gas or bloating any more – even my hair is growing out more – I even noticed new eyebrow hairs – I mean really – How much can a person expect out of one product line anyway – It has exceeded what I expected. Also I hardly notice any parasites any longer. Even if I didn’t see them – the bleach really shows them up. I feel cleaner inside and my eyesight has improved. I feel like shouting ‘THANK YOU!’ TO WHOEVER OUT THERE DEVELOPED THIS PRODUCT! And I want to thank the Lord for leading me to this site…If I could say one thing it would be to stick with the cleanse and the Toxinout – don’t stop whatever you do – I had to persevere and I am so glad that I did…

I will sign off for now before the end of my cleanse a very very happy and healthier customer! I’ve told many people about it – there are 4 of my friends on it now as well.

Days 77-79 - 3 BM’s before breakfast & 2 BM’s after breakfast so far . I have noticed parasites in the toilet water still – some almost too small to see – but once the stool sits in the bleach water for several minutes I can see the tiny white things floating in the water. I have seen some very small white worms and on Feb 13 a red looking creature about 1’ inch long and wider at one end (like a small paisley design). I know now that I have to do a fourth month to at least lessen the burden of the parasite population. In 6 months I will be doing 2 more months. After the last BM I felt a terrific amount of energy – almost like I didn’t know what to do with it all – what a wonderful feeling!

Day 80 - I am still seeing small parasites in the water. I called DrNatura’s office and ordered two more months of the colonix and the Toxinout and I have a forth month that I will be doing after my next 5 day break. The customer service department mentioned to me that if I am still seeing parasites at the end of the 3 rd month that I should do one more month. I had 3 BM’s before breakfast again. The first two were very dark. Like really old feces and the last one was quite a bit and soft again. So I guess I still have a ways to go.

Days 81-84 - Still having 3 – 4 BM’s per day. I am seeing less fizzing in the toilet with the bleach in the water – but now more parasites are identifiable. I feel cleaner inside and my tummy is flatter. My eye sight is still better. I am experiencing an over all well feeling. I will be doing a 4 th month of Paranil and fiber for sure plus a third month of the Toxinout.

Days 85, 86 - 3 BM’s or so per day. With the bleach I am still seeing tiny red parasites and last night some very weird looking creatures like worms only pure white. I know for sure now I will be doing a 4 th month of the Paranil and the fiber (without the tea) and 3 rd month of the Toxinout. I feel clean inside and a lot more energy as well!

I LOVE this program!

June 5, 2007: This is my first journal entry. I found the Colonix website and placed my order on Friday. It arrived today and my husband and I are starting the program tomorrow. I found the website on the referral of Kevin Trudeau and his book, Natural Cures a few months ago. I have been so excited, I have spent hours every day reading the testimonials. I was thinking yesterday that I should document our progress with a journal, so this is my first entry.

So, as of today, before I have started the cleanse, I am struggling with extremely low levels of energy. I teach full time and I actually teach goals and motivation, so that takes a large amount of energy from me. I come home each day just completely exhausted. If I mistakenly take a nap like I did today, I can barely function for the rest of the night and lose any chance I had of getting anything done. I am also in school full time, in an accelerated program, and I just wish I had more energy to do my school work on week days instead of needing my weekends for home work. I have always had a little belly, like many women do, but in the last 5 years, it has increased and I cannot get rid of it. I was a size five my whole life, and now I cannot seem to get smaller than a 7. My husband has a cute little pot belly too, and he just hates it.

I can tell you that as of now - before starting the program, my husband has trouble with BM's (to use the testimonial lingo from the website). He is not regular at all and is lucky if he goes once a day. Up until this last week, I was fairly regular and could count on going at least twice a day. Until I read what other people had posted, I didn't realize how strange it was that I never felt completely ‘done' when I would go. I am also starting to have constipation, which is not at all normal for me. I have always had stomach problems as far back as I can remember, and very frequent headaches. Since switching off of diet soda, they have decreased by about 50%.

I am hopeful both my husband and I will lose some of our bellies, and hopefully ALL of our bellies. I am hoping we both get some great skin out of this and I am praying for the energy level spike everyone talks about. So I have everything ready to go for tomorrow. I measured out all of our water for the day and we are getting up just a little early so we can have time to visit the throne before we leave for work tomorrow.

June 7 (Day 2): So yesterday was the first day of the cleanse. Josh and I took the tea before bed and we both thought it made us feel kinda loopy, but last night it just made me sleepy. He says he had a hard time falling asleep last night, but I personally think it is because he went to bed with me at 10 pm and he always stays up later than that. I woke a few times both nights to use the restroom. Yesterday was fine. I was expecting to go right after taking the fiber, but I didn't. I really had to go when I got here to work, though and there was quite a bit. Went again later just a smaller movement and that was all for the day. I had two mild headaches during the day and I feel fairly sure they were because of the cleanse. I felt a little happier yesterday despite a terrible night's sleep that first night.

Today I woke up fairly easily and don't feel too tired. I was laughing and feeling more energetic than usual - quite cheerful today. I had a BM first thing after taking the fiber - like 5 to 10 minutes after like I was expecting, and went again as soon as I got to work. Just about 45 minutes in between the two. I have noticed that everyone is right - you hardly need any TP. When I went first thing this morning, I wiped with a baby wipe and when I checked - there was nothing on it but a small round, flat little piece that looked like rubber. Cool. Then when I got here to work, my BM was HUGE and almost runny. I didn't want to inspect too closely while at work but it looked mostly normal. I am having another headache this morning, but the cheerfulness hasn't stopped and I feel quite jolly.

June 8 (Day 3): Well, the headache stayed with me all day yesterday, but was mild compared to my normal ‘diet soda' headaches, so I was fine with it. I haven't been having additional movements after the two each morning. So I decided to just tweak the program a little bit and I steeped our tea for three minutes last night and upped the fiber to 3/4 scoop this AM. I didn't notice much difference in the tea, but I went three times today, so far. Twice close together in the AM which has been the usual since we started, and I went again a few hours later. It was a small BM and very runny. My husband reports he is still on just once per day. He may need to move up to 1 1/2 scoops after day 5. We shall see. I was thinking that it can't be good for us to store all the food we eat all day until the next day. I am also kind of tired today and had some cramping this morning before my first BM. I was actually nervous that it was signaling some parasite ookiness, but I didn't dig and nothing was obvious by looking. I did notice some black spots when I wiped - but they looked similar to the rubbery dot I saw yesterday. We are going away this weekend, so I am hoping nothing too extreme happens while I am visiting my Dad...

June 9 (Day 4): Saturday I had woken up three times to go and didn't go again after that.

June 10 (Day 5): Woke earlier today and went twice. Didn't get enough water until late afternoon.

June 11 (Day 6): Went three times and nothing unusual.

June 12 (Day 7): Went right after taking the fiber this morning and it was my first weird one. It was like many people have described - pockets that were kind of strung together. I looked after going and it was unusual. Since being on this program, my BM's have all been either soft or runny. This one looked compacted. I just looked a little closer and it appeared like it was thick strings all strung together. I watched when I flushed and they separated out and were definitely strung together with a clear kind of sac. I looked up ‘mucoid plaque' when I came in to work today and maybe that was what it was. Dunno, but I was excited to have something besides tomato skins and flat black dots come out. I have gone twice more since coming to work. I am trying to focus on drinking a lot of water earlier in the day. Feel very mildly sick today and have been fuzzy headed a lot since starting the program, so hopefully I am getting all the junk out of me, and will be feeling clear and very energetic soon.

June 13 (Day 8): Holy cow! Exciting! I had one of those old ones just now. I was so stressed out - hadn't had my usual BM yet. It was over an hour later than normal. I usually have to go once before I leave for work. I went and tried at home and again when I got here to work and nothing. Just went now and man! I saw it. Totally saw what people were talking about and you can't mistake it. I kept thinking - how crazy can poop look? But I saw the different colors and the striations. A yellow colored cord was wrapped around some very dark parts and regular parts. Man - it was weird! And when it came out, it felt pretty small, but when I looked, it was quite large. Kept worrying all these weird things may hurt coming out, but nope. YAY! Will keep updating as the situation develops, so to speak...

Okay - I have gone three more times today but haven't had any other strange events. The last two BM's were pretty runny. My husband has stayed at two a day, and has expelled something today that he said looked like a very pale - almost white, one inch ‘stick.' He wants the results I am getting so I am going to up his fiber to one and a half scoops.

June 14 (Day 9): Okay - so today is insanity. Just as an update - I went four times yesterday and my husband went three. His third was in the evening - which he never does, and he says that something white and "glue-y" came out. I told him I thought it was fat or mucous.

Today, I woke up and had my Paranil pills next to the bed. Took them before even getting out of bed and so did my husband. I had to go immediately upon waking, which never happens. I actually took the time to investigate this one a little - it was my first time investigating and I felt extremely weird about it - but I want to know what is hiding in there. Didn't see much of anything at all - except that parts of it were kind of tough and wouldn't break apart - but it looked normal. Then I brushed my teeth and got ready for work and had to go AGAIN (this is also really unusual for me on this program so far) before I even went downstairs. That BM was a little bigger than the first, and the other was a good size already. I noticed more of the tomato skin things - I see them pretty much every day.

Finally - about 25 minutes after taking the Paranil, I got downstairs and took my fiber. I steeped the tea last night for 8 minutes and I have myself on a little more than one scoop of fiber, and my husband is on a scoop and a half now. That seems to be working for him well. When we were ready to leave for work about 15 minutes later, I actually had to go AGAIN. Geez! So I ran up and went again. I realize that I finally felt peaceful for the first time since starting this program, like I had gotten rid of everything I needed to for the morning or something.

What is important about today though is that I keep seeing the tomato skins in my BM's, so I was determined to find out what they were. As soon as I got to work, I researched what kind of parasite that is and found it is probably a fluke. I eat a lot of sushi and you can definitely get flukes from contaminated raw fish.

I am quite horrified this morning. They say 70% of parasites are invisible to the human eye, and I have seen a lot of these things. It is quite disturbing to think about how many there are actually living inside of me right now. I have never been more determined than I am right now to finish this program.

June 15 (Day 10): Well - nothing at all for me after the three times at home early in the morning yesterday, but I have my husband up to 3 times a day!! Success!! I asked him if he is feeling better and he said he has noticed he has had more energy the last few days. Personally, I feel as though my skin looks a little better, and while I don't feel as though I have MORE energy - I am staying up much later than I normally do every night. I don't feel extra tired from it - I just feel pretty normal. I am sleeping very well every night and that is a huge bonus for me. I pay far more attention to how I feel at all times now. I have been a little bloated since I started the program. I don't know if that is a reaction from those flukes being expelled (nasty little buggers) or if it is because I am still drinking coffee every morning, or why. My stomach feels just a little raw - and has since I read about those flukes yesterday. I think it is because I read that they are shaped like little spines as they travel through your body and can scratch everything up. I must be projecting. YUCK.

This morning was again unusual for me. My body is weird, so I am not surprised I am not on a schedule yet. I woke and the hubbie and I took the Paranil immediately - just like yesterday. I am finding that works better for us - keeping the pills by the bed with a big bottle of water. Otherwise, we will start running behind in the mornings. (My husband doesn't like to get up right away...) Did the whole morning routine, and again, like the day I had my first multi-colored friend, I didn't go at all. I was hoping for something exciting all morning, simply because I didn't go. On the drive to work, I started getting a pretty bad headache and then it just went away. I was thinking - YAY - more excitement!! So I got to work and waited some more. My stomach finally started making some pretty loud gurgling noises and it was finally time!

When I went, it was actually more normal looking than I expected, except it was probably my largest BM so far on this program, and there were white flecks or specks or something in it. Like the little seeds others talk about in their testimonials, or rice? All I know is that it was quite big - surprising. Oh well, I am sure there will be plenty of excitement still since I am only on day 10. Will hold off and write more after I have my next BM - I should have at least one more today.

June 18 (Day 13): Man - I am so bloated and uncomfortable today. My plan is to take a half scoop of fiber when I get home to see if that helps at all. Have been reading more testimonials today and am thinking I need to be more careful what I am eating. Haven't been to the organic food store in too long, and have been eating way too much junk. Maybe that will help, if the extra fiber doesn't. I did have a second BM later in the morning, but I am used to having three. All the water I have been drinking today just feels like it is all collected in my stomach. Ugh.

June 20 (Day 15): So far today, I have gone three times. The first time was at home before I left for work, and it was sausage casing again, but it was stringy this time. I pulled out my trusty, super long, plastic chop sticks and had to investigate. It wouldn't break at all, and was quite long. Each time I eliminate this stuff, I wonder if it is intestinal plaque, or something else. And I can't break into the pockets to find out what is inside. I also noticed this morning in the first BM that I had a piece in the bowl that was completely grey. It was nasty. Nothing grey is supposed to be exiting. I can't imagine how old that was, or if it wasn't old - what happened inside of me to turn it that color. YUCK!!

I went twice more at work and the first appeared to be sausage casing again, but the second was very runny and sank to the bottom.

I noticed something extremely weird today. I had a hard time getting started this morning, and I usually wake up fairly alert and ready to go. Even before I started the cleanse. But today I was dragging a bit. I think my monthly is about to start soon. Anyhow - I have been feeling pretty tired all day (maybe because I didn't get all my water yesterday?) and strangely enough, I was far more energetic in class than I normally am. I usually kind of perch at the edge of a table while I am teaching - almost always. Most of the day today - I was standing and walking around the room. It didn't occur to me until I ended class and let the students go home - how weird that was. To be more tired than usual, and to apparently have far more energy than I have been showing when I don't feel tired... Odd... Hopefully I will soon start feeling all that excess energy everyone talks about in the testimonials. I need to get back and read through them again to compare notes. I am also going to order the next month's worth of Colonix today. That will give it like three weeks to get here. Should be plenty of time.

Oh! And my friend ‘S' started her program yesterday. I haven't heard anything from her yet, but she says she stayed home sick with her IBS on Monday and was there when her Colonix was delivered. I can't wait to hear how good she feels now that she has started it... Exciting!

June 24 (Day 19): Well, I think I went 4 times Thursday and Friday. Saw some old stuff mixed in with the more normal stuff. Just two times yesterday though. As for today, I can only remember one or two at most, but the weirdest thing happened today. I have been wondering why everyone talks about losing their cravings for sweets. We were at a gathering yesterday and I had a brownie and some cookies, and have been eating a bowl of ice cream daily to combat the heat lately. So today I wake up and a few hours later, I ran out for a drink from a coffee shop - a Chai blend - sweet and cold. I tried to drink it, but I didn't like it. And I LOVE Chai drinks. Odd. I still have almost the whole thing. Wasted it. It was just too sweet. Then I got home and it was hot and I thought ice cream sounded really good. Grabbed a bowl and sat down and just didn't want it. What on earth?? I have and do and always love ice cream. LOVE IT. I just don't know how I feel about that. I finally gave up after about 5 or 6 bites and just put it away and poured a cold glass of water. I also don't have much of an appetite at all today.

The husband says he saw a BM that looked ‘exactly like that picture you showed me on the website.' Said it was balls connected together by sausage casing. Said the balls were tear drop shaped and looked like they had little intestines in them.

My friend started hers on Tuesday this week, about 5 days ago. I talked to her a few days into it and she said that she hadn't had any IBS symptoms at all, but that she didn't feel a lot different.

I still can't believe it took me only 19 days to lose my sweet cravings. Incredible.

June 28 (Day 23): The last few days have been fairly normal. I average about 3 BM's per day and that stays fairly consistent. If it changes at all, it is just one more or less each day. We got our next month's worth of Colonix yesterday, so we are all set to go after the five day break. The hubbie and I are both feeling very decreased appetites lately. The last two to three days have been very interesting. We have eaten about half what we normally do. I also have been having issues with certain things tasting REALLY different. I poured a Coke for my husband yesterday myself, and when I tasted it - I was swearing to him it was root beer. He said it tasted just like Coke, but it didn't. For a moment I thought they had hooked up the wrong syrup to the fountain, but he said it tasted normal to him. Weird! What is even more strange? I stayed up until about 12:30 last night and when the alarm went off today at 6am, I literally bounced out of bed and straight downstairs. I popped out of bed like a piece of toast from the toaster. It was craziness. I am not in the habit of bouncing out of bed at all.

My BM's have been mostly detox stuff. I have rarely been having a normal movement - softer, floating, light. They have been more odd shaped and lumpy, harder. Today I finally had a more normal movement and was feeling good about that. And my husband said that he is surprised that having eaten so little lately that his movements are still of ‘normal' size. I told him that was really good.

Next really weird thing is my mood. We have had two very stressful court dates this week and I had quite an upsetting day at work, and I am still just bouncing around, happy as can be. I feel very calm and optimistic, I seem happy no matter what. It has been a very welcome side effect.

Last of all - it has been very gradual, so the noticing of it was later in coming, but my energy level is MUCH improved. At night, I go to bed far later than I was ever able to do before this cleanse, and I am not tired AT ALL during the day anymore. I still struggle once in a while with falling asleep at night, but usually I start to feel tired, go to bed and fall right into very peaceful sleep. Wake up before the alarm and just relax in bed, enjoying the comfort, until the alarm goes off. I do wake up several times each night to use the restroom though. But the complete and total, dragging tired, exhausted feeling I had EVERY DAY before I started is completely GONE.

Also wanted to share that we have upped steeping the tea to 10 minutes a night and that seems to be working well for both of us. I think I may experiment tonight and make it 15, just to see what happens tomorrow. My husband has settled in comfortably with 2 scoops of fiber each day and goes twice each morning and usually a third in the evening, but not always. I take a scoop and a half for my three per day. I am still not going in the evening at all.

No more fuzzy headedness, no headaches lately. My stomach does have an acidic sensation much of the time lately. I feel that it is the parasites being forced out, combined with stress. I also feel it immediately when I eat anything that isn't organic. My husband took longer but his reaction has been even stronger than mine to junk food. He actually wasted almost an entire meal of his very favorite dish from his favorite fast food joint the other day because it was making him feel quite sick. YAY! I was waiting for him to come around.

July 8, 2007 (Break Day 3): We are on day 3 of our 5 day break after our first 30 days. I have lost 6 pounds as of 2 days ago. Holy Stinkin' cow. Neither of us had been losing any weight and suddenly I am down by 6 and my husband was down by 4 but hasn't weighed himself in a few days. We are finally working out along with the program and that seems to be helping a lot. We have been trying to walk at least a mile every day and have gotten up to almost 3, plus we alternate with tennis. We will both weigh ourselves tomorrow and see where we are at.

July 11, 2007 (2nd month, day 1): Well - we just finished the five day break. I have been having very old, grey movements since the break, continuing into today. They are very hard and compacted and extremely funky looking. Very hard to describe. They are almost stringy, but also rubbery. My BMs were not normal during the five day break - weird times and less frequent. I don't feel as though any of them have been recent ingestions, either, which is worrisome. But we did begin the program again today, and we are starting the Toxinout as well.
Another thing I have noticed is that as a smoker, I used to wake up and have a lot of phlegm. That has greatly decreased during the Colonix program, but started to come back since we went on the break. At night I used to have a lot of trouble clearing all the phlegm - it would feel like my throat was full of it. I hadn't even noticed that the throat clearing had gone away until it started coming back on the break. That has been wonderful for me.
Also - my husband and I virtually get sick now if we eat fast food. Happy little side benefit. We don't start throwing up or anything, but it immediately bloats our stomachs and decreases our energy, causes heartburn and general stomach pains.

July 12, 2007 (2nd month, day 2): Well - this is day 2 of the 2nd month. I continue to have petrified poops, as I like to call them. This morning, after the tea last night, I am relieved to report that my body is going back to eliminating more, and it is easier than during the 5 day break. I responded to a poster in the testimonials page, and one thing I wrote to him was this: You don't realize how awful you feel all the time until you start feeling better. This product has ridiculously improved the quality of my life and my health. My husband and I have been going walking or playing tennis EVERY night for the last two weeks and we haven't ever been exercisers. We feel great and he has become totally committed to the program instead of needing hounding to take all the pills and fiber. And he is finally helping me commit to eating healthier.

We are both pretty excited about having started Toxinout yesterday. Hopefully we will have interesting things to report very soon.

September 25, 2007: Well, we have finished three months of Colonix, and I am on a break until I start my third month of Toxinout. I haven't been keeping my journal daily since July, but a LOT has been happening. I have only lost 6 pounds on the program - but since I started the Toxinout, I have lost INCHES off my waist. I am finally back to a size 5, and almost a 3. It happened towards the end of the second month and pretty much happened all at once. Everyone noticed, even the men in my office made comments. I weighed myself last week, and I am only down 6 pounds since I started, but it looks like I lost about 20!!

To wrap up this experience, I want to list all the problems I USED to have that I no longer have. I no longer have constant gas and bloating, stomach pains, congestion that makes me clear my throat for the first two hours upon waking every morning, broken sleeping and insomnia, low energy and exhaustion. I also notice now - exactly what causes me to feel bad. The cleanse really makes your body healthy. So when I eat something that isn't good for me, my body tells me right away. I know now that soda gives me a yucky stomach and tastes bad as soon as I drink it. I get an immediate headache if I eat any kind of fast food. I love that I know exactly WHAT my body doesn't want. I am so clean and healthy now - I can actually pin point everything I shouldn't eat, as soon as I eat it. We went off organic food for a while due to money issues, and we are both miserable every time we eat. And I have just decided that I never want to go back to feeling how we felt before the cleanse, so we are going to make a point out of setting aside money for healthy eating from now on.

I am still seeing parasites - even as of my last week of the three month cleanse. Also - I cannot eat pork at all anymore - not any kind. I literally get sick to my stomach, to the point of almost throwing up. I haven't had any problems sleeping through the night since that first month, and I sleep much better and fall asleep quicker than I ever have in my whole life.

I have gotten coworkers, my mother and a friend all on the program and they are all success stories. I LOVE this program! I am including my email address so anyone can feel free to email me with questions or just to chat about it. Vlvtrosez210@yahoo.com.
