Colon Cleanse Free Samples

Several months ago, I was introduced to colon cleansing. I was complaining to a friend about how much weight I had put on over the past year or two and that I was just feeling bloated and lethargic. It was all I could do after a long day at work to scarf down a quick dinner and chill with the TV until it was time for bed. The fact that I ate mostly at fast food places and didn’t get any exercise didn’t help either. I asked my friend how she managed to stay slim and seemed to go and go all day long, full of energy.

She told me he attributed it to the day she started taking a colon cleanse to lose some quick weight. Her husband had used a cleanse for years and talked her into it. She suspected there’d be a little bit of weight loss initially, but was surprised to see how much she dropped and how easy it was to maintain the loss as well. In addition, she loved the fact that her energy level seemed to explode. Since she was doing so well, I decided to check it out too.

I got on the Internet and searched for “colon cleanse”. This brought up a ton of information and sales pitches for dozens of products. I decided I’d check out the free samples that were available (basically because I’m cheap) but also because I wanted to find one that would give me the best results. Most of the free colon cleanse samples are only for a week or two, but that’s more than enough to check them out with. My results were so amazing that I decided to write this blog and tell the world about it all. So here goes!

The History of Colon Cleanse:

Colon cleanses are not a really new phenomenon,  they have been around for centuries. In the earliest times, back to 1500 B.C., people used hollow reeds while in a river to cause the water to flow into and flush the rectum. The Egyptians show record in a medical document called the “Eber Papyrus” of using enemas as a cleanse to purify the body, especially for religious purposes. The Greeks also used cleanses and claimed it enhanced their fitness levels for sports competition and for warfare. In colonial America, enemas were used by many educated people to stave off disease and maintain health. Lewis and Clark consulted with physicians just before their famous expedition to learn the proper techniques for effective cleansing to keep them healthy on their journey.

In the turn of the last century, John Kellogg, M.D. used colon therapy on thousands of his patients. In 1917 he reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association that of his 40 thousand patients having gastrointestinal diseases, he needed to resort to surgery to treat only 20 cases. This started the trend of increased popularity of colon therapy from the 1920’s through the 1940’s evidenced by the presence of colon irrigation machines in virtually every doctor’s office. This past decade and in particular, the past year, has seen a huge resurgence of interest in colon cleanse with the advent of better home solutions – both less invasive and more private.

What are the risks?

Anything you put in your body carries a risk with it. Way back to the ol’ reed in the rectum in the river (a song?), I’m sure someone had a problem along the way. One of the biggest risks of a colon cleanse is that, if done too aggressively and for a long period of time, you lose valuable minerals and “probiotics” (good bacteria) that are necessary for good health. Some of the better cleanses make up for this by supplying them to replenish your system. Another risk is that some cleanses are basically just cheap, strong laxatives that react severely with your system. Many times these are products that were designed for use in livestock or other animals. They can cause severe pain and cramping from gas build up and muscle spasm.

The other side of the coin is the risk that comes up from NOT cleansing the colon. Even though colon cleansing has been around for so long, it’s today’s lifestyles that make it more of a necessity than ever. Before 1950, the phrase “fast food” meant a 12-point deer running through the woods. That year, Hostess put in some cream filling and added some squiggles to a cupcake and launched an explosion of fat-laden baked snacks. In 1955, McDonald’s started the nationwide growth of the fast food giants. It goes without saying that the American way of eating has filled our bodies with fats, chemicals, and toxins on a scale that the body has never seen before.

The Colon and intestines have a huge job sorting out the good from the bad in your body. As that cheeseburger passes through (taking days) not only the nutrients are extracted – all the fat, cholesterol, and toxic additives are pulled into your bloodstream too. And they’re stored in your body – in the fat cells! As the remainder mass of sludge moves through your system, much remains behind for a long time and can build up a substance called “mucoid plaque” which adheres to the colon walls. This is a thick, slimy mass that can remain in you for years and adds pounds of dead weight to your body.

The worst issue with the plaque though, is as Wikipedia states: “The mucoid plaque buildup provides an ideal breeding environment for parasites“. They go on to list over 40 symptoms of parasitic infection which include constipation, anemia, anorexia, and even mental problems!

And then there’s no need to even remind you of the huge increase in number of cases of Cancer of the Colon lately. It has been standard procedure that all persons of age 50 and over should get regular colonoscopy exams. But lately physicians are re-thinking that maybe a younger age would be more prudent, given the rapid development of Colon Cancer seen lately. Colon health equates to body health more than we realized.

How Do I Do a Cleanse:

There are basically three ways to cleanse the colon:

1. Enemas -Hydrotherapy is a bit on the physical side and messy to do yourself. Can be even dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing, but it could also be expensive if done by a professional. If you’re interested, consult with an experienced Colon Hydrotherapist in your area. For more information about a professional colonic, you can see a short video from the British Colonic Association here.
2. Diet Change – There are a few “home remedies” around that work in varying degrees. You can eat lots of prunes and high fiber grains like Psyllium with a lot of water. Sometimes they don’t work, other times they work too well. The real risk here being that you may “overflush” your mineral and probiotic balance down the drain too.
3. Buy a Colon Cleanse product - They’re made to do this quickly, easily, and do it well. A good cleanse is gentle while being thorough. And it should handle the replacement of probiotics and minerals as well. Since there are differences in the various brands available, getting a free sample first is a good idea. At a minimum, you should have a 100% money back guarantee if you’re not satisfied.

What are the benefits of a Colon Cleanse Product?

Why have people been doing colon cleansing for centuries? Pretty much for the same reasons – to make the body run at top efficiency. You probably could live the rest of your life without doing a colon cleanse. On the other hand, people that have tried it will rave about how great it makes them feel, along with these other benefits:

• Health: Again, with today’s dietary patterns, a lot of junk ends up going through your body. Chemical additives, fats (natural and additives), and preservatives create challenges for the body to get rid of them. Many illnesses and diseases are caused at least in part by problems starting in the intestinal tract. A good cleanse can remove this buildup efficiently. Additionally, the kidney and liver, instrumental in trying to keep your body free of toxins, are also cleansed with a good product. Lastly, removal of parasites is something that just doesn’t happen by itself – they can live comfortably inside your body without you even aware of their presence – except for when they wreak their havoc.
• Weight Loss: One of the fastest ways to drop a bunch of pounds is to do a thorough colon cleanse. It’s not unusual to see 10 pounds gone the first week you start with a cleanse. First of all, this is in large part because of the elimination of massive amounts of intestinal build-up. The accumulation of a mucoid plaque does not vacate the colon without help from a thorough cleanse. This can weigh several pounds alone. In addition, a well cleansed body does not retain the volume of digested waste products for as long, thus reducing your overall weight. Long term benefits are brought about due to the fact that foods like that cheeseburger aren’t left in the intestine as long to ooze their fat and calorie content into your bloodstream. In addition to all this, the weight loss brings about a subconscious awareness of a healthy self – and that what you put into your body makes a difference.
• Aesthetics: people just want to be clean inside as well as outside. You brush your teeth, you wash your body, why not keep your inside clean too? People really don’t need to shower daily – it just feels better to be clean and fresh. Also, it’d be particularly comforting thought to know that you don’t have worms and other parasites living it up in your belly as well!

My Experience with Cleanses:

Once I decided that I wanted to try a colon cleanse product, I went to a bunch of websites that offered free samples. I wanted to try a few to see which worked best for me and didn’t want to spend much at the same time. The first cleanse that I tried had a 7 day trial and I started with it as soon as the bottle arrived.

I was a bit un-nerved though because there were very little in the way of directions or guidance that came with it. I took it for two days and then quit because I had pretty bad cramps. I tried to contact the manufacturer for the next three days and then finally got a hold of someone who could only cancel my trial, but didn’t know anything about the product. Needless to say, I canceled.

The friend that initially turned me on to trying a cleanse recommended Colon Cleanse Elite and so I tried that. There are more details of my experience are listed below in the Reviews, but I’ll just say here that it was much gentler on my body and it worked very well. One thing to remember with any cleanse is that you need to keep up with your water intake – several glasses a day.

My experience with it started with taking one of the small tablets from the bottle. I was glad there wasn’t a bunch of hassle with mixing powders or other inconvenient processes. On the second day, my body started “moving” – about 5 times that day. I was amazed at the sheer volume of waste I eliminated. The third day volume dropped off and I was through with the test in 4 days. I felt incredibly light and good, and I was down 12 pounds! Better yet, I was able to get into some jeans that I had not been able to fit into for over two years! Losing the weight instantly gave me a shot of self esteem I noticed. All I can say is, just try it. It’s the cheapest, quickest, healthiest way to drop weight and get rid of the toxins in your body.

I’ve tried (and heard stories of) several other cleanses that have had good results and I made this “top 3″ list below from those sources. I also made the “not recommended” list for ones I’ve heard of people having bad experiences with. If you have any comments about cleanses in general, feel free to enter them below.

Colon Cleanse Elite

Colon Cleanse Elite

Colon Cleanse Elite is one of the more thorough and effective cleanses available. It concentrates on weight loss as its main goal and if your wish is to lose weight quickly, this may be the one for you. It was the one that I had chosen and I’m VERY pleased with it. Believe me, you will see weight loss quickly with this one. Weight loss of ten or twenty pounds in a couple of weeks is not unusual at all.  People using it (including me) report that they feel much healthier after taking the program and would recommend it to anyone.

The formula consists of about a dozen herbs and extracts that have a proven track record in effective cleansing. However, a major difference in this colon cleanse is that it contains three ingredients the others don’t have:

• Garcinia cambogia extract
• Chromium Polyniconate
• Gymnema sylvestre extract

These were tested in two separate clinical studies and the groups that included these extracts lost an average of 11 pounds more than the control group. This means 450% MORE weight loss than dieting and exercise alone can give you.

You must be 18 or older to order the free trial. Their free trial program gets you a 30-day supply (although the trial period is 14 days) but you’ll know if you like it or not in only a few days. Their shipping charge is $5.95 and they deliver within a week. This is a well tested, VERY popular product.
