asked:


I heard that the average person has anywhere from 5 to 15 pounds of fecal matter build up inside their colon! (YUCK) and that a colon cleansing can get rid of that. Is that true or just junk science?

Also, if a colon cleansing is worth the money, do you have to go to a doctor to get one done or can you buy something at a drug store or health food store and do it yourself?

Thanks for any help and / or advice.

This is gross but ever since I’ve heard that the average person has about 5 lbs. of impacted fecal matter lining their colon I’ve always wanted to do a colon cleanse. Any suggestions?
