Did you know in south american jungles there is a mud that ALL the animals eat on a regular basis otherwise the natural environmental toxins that they eat would make them ill or/and kill them. Its much like your clay deal. And the monkeys get high on millipedes too..lol(that one was just for fun)

Interesting!

Like dogs eating grass in the spring, must be a cleansing thing.

I just got done with the GNC Complete Body Cleansing Program. Well, almost. I was doing fine. No pain, no having to rush to the bathroom. Just a nice gentle cleanse. Till day 6. I wound up in the hospital with excrutiating stomach pains. Now I have to eat toast, crackers, broth, water and tea for a few days. It was explained to me that our bodies are programmed to cleanse themselves and all these cleansers are gimmicks. After spending the day in the emergency room and two doses of morphine for the pain, I think I'll just let my body do it. I had used the program to jump start my new better eating rigimine.

In my opinion, these body cleansing programs are just pills packed with a extensive amount of fiber and other things, to cause your body to speed up its own cleansing process. But each person is different, one may need to use this, while another just needs a healthy diet.

My fave program is the Master Cleanser. 3-5 days is plenty.

Make your own lemonade with fresh squeezed lemons, add a little honey and cayenne to the water, and drink this all day and night for the duration.

If you do research on cleanses, they are not healthy and you just gain the weight back. Your body is created to 'cleanse' itself as needed.

A cleanse isn't necessarily only for weight loss. Agreed that nature usually takes care of it especially if one eats a healthy diet with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, but there are good reasons why people might want to do a cleanse. If you do research on cleanses, you will find lots of opinions. Not all are unhealthy.

There is absolutely no benefit, none, to colon cleanses.

They are a scam, plain and simple.

Except in preparation for certain medical procedures, such as a colonoscopy.
