Won't help.: in the long run, "colon cleansers" will not help you lose weight. The only thing that actually works is to increase exercise, cut back calories, and eat healthier foods over the long haul. Losing weight quickly does not help your cause. It needs to be a lifestyle change, over a long period of time. You can do it. Good luck.

Stop! Don't cleanse: Healthtap physicians have repeatedly addressed this subject with a clear "no" answer to your question.There is virtually no value to colon flushes, cleansers, enemas, irrigation machines when the technique is accomplished to "detox" or eliminate "accumulated waste" or for weight loss. There are few real health benefits, but sigificant unjustified risk. Don't use cleansers please unless prescribed.
