David T Smith asked:


The value of performing a regular colon cleanse is questionable, depending on who you ask. The same could be said about the definition of an extreme colon cleanse. Some people believe that an extreme colon cleanse means including every part of the body. Since waste that builds up in the colon may become toxic and leak out to other parts, then colon cleansing may include detoxifying agents to rid the entire body of toxins, and not just the colon.

Extreme Colon Cleanse – So Many Products

When you purchase a kit to perform a colon cleanse, it should contain everything you need. Everything you need should include fiber supplements, detoxifying agents, an anti-parasitic, and probiotics. These ingredients may come as a pill, powder, liquid, or tea. When people get the idea that more is better, they may go for an extreme colon cleanse by adding more products to the ones that come in the kit. The only time you should do that is if the kit is lacking something. Maybe you purchased a kit that doesn’t have an anti-parasitic in it. Then it would certainly be acceptable to purchase an anti-parasitic to add. Just make sure it’s okay to mix with the other ingredients. Once you start taking the products that are in your colon cleanse kit, you’re going to realize that they are working. Don’t assume from the beginning that adding more will give you a better cleansing and provide you with better results.  An extreme colon cleanse in this way will only put you at risk for adverse side effects.

Extreme Colon Cleanse – For the Duration

Another way you can perform an extreme colon cleanse is by extending the cleanse for a long period of time. A month is usually the longest period of time that you are advised to use these treatments, but many people continue for a much longer period of time. A lot of things can go wrong if you stay on the colon cleansing treatments for too long. An extreme colon cleanse can result in damage to the colon or bowels, cause dehydration, eliminate the good bacteria that is usually in the digestive tract and reduce the amount of nutrients your body gets so that you end up suffering from deficiencies.

Extreme Colon Cleanse – Never Recommended

The saying “all things in moderation” has been around for a long time and applies to a lot of things. An extreme colon cleanse tells you in its name that it isn’t a good idea. Normally, your colon takes care of cleansing all by itself. If you have to give it a little help because of a junk food diet, then you should refrain from doing all the work for it. Otherwise, it may become dependent on your help and be unable to function alone.
