Anyone tried "cleansing" your system?

Hi.
I know the topic of constipation has been brought before in regards to whether it effects skin or not. I personally get a little "slow" quite often. I saw an ad for "Ultimate Cleansing" for people who have symptoms of "self-poisoning"...too much toxins in your body. Symptoms include constipation and poor skin. So I bought it and have been using it for a week (it's 2 bottles: 1 multi-herb, 1 multi-fiber) and it's meant to get you to have 2-3 BM's a day to help de-toxify your body.

What have I noticed? Well, I feel less tired for one. But as for my skin, I might be crazy but it seems less bumpy. I can keep everyone updated but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has tried anything like this.

Yeah i have hard time going number 2(gosh I sound like my grandma) ONCE a day. It's like in the morning I have small abdominal pain like everything is clogged up down there and then just go in the morning every day and that's it. The norm should be EASILY going 2-3 times a day, not where for me it is hard to go. So I think it has a lot to do with it. I heard that colon hydrotherapy is good to lose weight and help with skin, which are very good benefits along with detoxifying your colon. But I am going a different route by getting colon cleanse pills. I want to detox my colon and be normally going about 2-3 times a day and I think it will help my skin. Let us see. I am still trying to search for a good yet reasonable colon cleanse product.

Good LUCK!

Hi.

Well, this product I'm using is supposed to clean your colon among other things. They also have something called Super Cleanse which is a stronger formula to really get things moving. These products are by Nature's Secret (I'm using Ultimate Cleanse). I got it at a health food store and I know they have it at GNC, but you could do a search. For the two bottles of products I got (90 tablets each), I paid something like $24, which I didn't think was too bad, but you do have to take a couple of pills twice a day.
