I know good and well what laxatives do to you so dont tell me nothin about that. I just want to knw if it changes the taste of the drink that you put it in.
yes, laxatives have a very distinct taste. Anyone would know if you put some in their drink - AND its a rotten thing to do.

I have seen and heard about many colon cleansers from companies like herbalife or GNC. I am wondering though if it does improve your body or if it is just a scam. Can anyone help?
Well, if you look at the ingredients, you can make your own cleansing formula yourself.
They put some Vitamins, fibers from various sources. I can’t say colon cleansing is a scam,for I never tried it myself and I don’t believe in it. They place stiff price tags in the name of the colon cleansing, IMO.
Best approach is to add more fibers in your diet. Food form of fibers are the best and safe. Let the food work naturally to cleanse our clogged up colon.

What brand would you recommend? I want to lose 8 pounds in about one week and heard this is the best way, but want to make sure I have the fastest acting laxatives in the drink. Is there any way to make them work even better?
Loosing weight fast is always an unhealthy thing.
There are many diets who tell you that you can loose a lot of weight in no time. And it is working, but you are doing no good to your body. And there’s also the Jojo-effect.
The best thing to loose and hold a healthy weight is healthy food, less sugar, lots of drinking water, and sports.
Diet has to begin in your head. And you already started to think about your nutrition. That’s an important step. It is too easy just to make a magazine-diet for 2-3 weeks and loose some weight. But it will come back soon again. If you are over-thinking your nutrition and activity, you will have a constantly good result. Isn’t that much better and healthier than a crash-diet ?
- Healthy life every day!
Take care,

I have this dear friend of mine who is gay and lives with his boyfriend. He was taken to the hospital last night (he is 27) and diagnosed with diverticulitis. Could this condition be caused by anal sex? He told me he was too embarrassed to ask the doctor.
anal sex does not cause diverticulitis. the disease is WAY way up there in the intestine so it has nothing to do with being penetrated.

I know, when it comes to making the pit stop after the cleanser, it is quite disgusting…but does this stuff really work?
Kenneth is talking complete rubbish.
A study of the living human anatomy reveals that the colon is at no time dirty or clogged. Medical professionals believe that the colon is completely self-sufficient to handle regular cleansing, without any external intervention.
The colon is self cleansing.
Colon cleansers give you ‘holistic diarrhoea’ and can cause vomiting, nausea and abdominal cramps, a dangerous loss of water and electrolytes, which can lead to dehydration and even abnormal heart rhythms. It can upset the body’s own finely-tuned bacterial balance.
Read the skeptoid link below re ‘harmful toxins and they also have a great deal of solidified fecal matter built up in there’.
Re detoxing in general…

From the above link…
“We have this wonderful thing called a liver and gastrointestinal tract which is quite long,” he (Professor Peter Pressman, a lecturer in clinical medicine at USC) says. “Between them, these two manage everything shovelled into our bodies quite well. We are not made to give the system a rest.”

What food can you mix into mineral oil (the constipation treater) to make it taste better? For example would mixing it into a milkshake make it float to that top? Or does it mix well with fudge sauce, oatmeal etc. Please help it rather urgent.
Thank you all for your answers but I am not looking for substitues for mineral oil I am looking for ways to mix it into things. Also for the record I am allergic to prunes.
I’ve never heard of using mineral oil as a treatment for constipation, so I really can’t help you there. But there are some other ways that work really well to relieve constipation:
Fiber - it’s not enough to just eat whole grain when you are constipated, but fiber supplements, such as Metamucil, work gently and take a few hours to work. You can get it as a mixing powder, capsules, bars, or my favorite - chewables.
Milk of Magnesia - never tried it myself, but I heard it works fast and really well.
"Dieter’s Tea" - found in many drug stores and Asian markets, it uses the herb Cassia Angustifolia (Senna) which helps to clear you out. It takes a few hours to kick in, and you will be going all day (don’t do it on a work day), but you feel fantastic after. Though it is sold as a tea, it is very potent. If you have any digestive problems, such as ulcers, contact your doctor before using it.
I hope it helped!

I want to lose weight, I have heard this is a good way to do it ??? Any advice out there ?
No they don’t have any therapeutic effects, they are basically a pointless throwback to the irrational actions of constipated Edwardians.

I have IBS and constipation and I try laxatives like mira lax and things like that but they cause terrible cramping and I bind up and then it hurts even more… what are some Natural gentle products that would help with my constipation gently? thanks
In my 23 years experience in medicine i have come to the conclusion that treatment of chronic constipation is easy, not difficult.
1. The first treatment to give immediate relief is the combination of herbs which if taken for very long time, do not give any side effects. Like Triphala - Harar, Baheda & Amla three fruits not medicines in equal quantity or adjusted with the constitution of person to person. The most effective time tested Ayurvedic tonic which is suggested to take life long for its anti ageing and immunity boosting properties.
2. My most effective therapy :
Fix a time i.e. 8 a.m. in the morning and 8 p.p. in the evening
just go to toilet, sit and think that your stomach will be cleared, sit for a while, if not do not give pressure and come back.
Go in the evening and repeat.
In day 1,2,3,…9..12 days maximum you will start clearing your stomach twice a day.
Its my psychological therapy to my patients to train your brain to clear stomach twice a day to remain health. Your body need vitamins every 12 hrs. & it releases toxins and unwanted to large intestines & bladder every 12 hrs. if you are clean from inside you can get rid of lot of coming diseases.
Water kept in copper vassal and drinked several times also purifies liver of lot of toxines.
First get rid of constipation & the your IBS will be very easy to be cured as warm stomach do not allow other treatments to effect.
Clear & cool your stomach. Stop eating fine flour, heating food, old food which is again & again kept in fridge and re-heated in micro, try & eat freshly cooked food, avoid non-veg. for few days and eat lot of dark green leafy vege., do not take proper dinner at night but eat salad or veg. soup at night 2 hrs. before sleep.
Eat seasonal fuits in the evening when you are empty stomach in the evening. Do not eat non seasonal fruits or vegetables which are cold storaged as God create things which are good for us in a particular season and eating non-seasonal is anti nature.
Hope you will be cured in less then 15 days.

I have IBS and my mother refuses to buy me any medication for it. It’s starting to rule my life. I can’t concentrate at school anymore…and it is really getting annoying. Please help me?
I agree with MSM. Diet is key! Diets high in fat will make your symptoms MUCH worse! When we eat, the fat in our GI tract sends a signal to our brain that it needs to get moving cause more food is coming. Sufferers of IBS usually have this signal sent faster, add a high fat diet and it speeds up the signal even more. But, if you want to try the easy way first, double up on the fiber supplements (3-6 grams per days) then go from there. Plus there really isn’t a good "medicine" on the market any more. Zelnorm is no longer available but I had every possible side effect from it so I’d just stick with fruits, veggies, good fat (omega’s), and complex carbs.
