Colon Cleansing: Jesse: You have posed a great question which I commonly get asked in my practice. Enema's are typically not necessary to cleanse your colon. In fact, some over the counter colon cleanses may lead to a condition called Melanosis Coli which is seen during a Colonoscopy. Eating a nutritious high fiber diet will help with proper bowel function. Consult with your doctor about your specific condition.
