A member asked:

I'm on a diet plan that requires me to have a colon cleanse and enema every third day but 3 years ago i had my gal bladder removed is it still advisable to do the colon cleanse and enema at home or should i do it with a doctor rather?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May be harmful: So called colon cleanse and enemas are the equivalent of snake oil treatment. See your primary care provider for an in person evaluation and treatment. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV and Covid vaccines.
