The colon, bowel and large intestines are one in the same...used interchangeably. When taking any of these cleanses by mouth you are cleansing the entire GI tract...which also includes the small intestines. You can do a Colon Cleanse any time...but it works best when you have also taken steps to improve your diet. You can also do a parasite cleanse while you are doing a colon cleanse...although the schedule for taking the herbs and shakes can get a little tricky. If you want to do them both simultaneously one of the easiest ways to do this is the Ultimate Fast. Sorry...I don't have the link available...run a search for Ultimate Fast and you can read more about it.
I have long history of Ulcerative Colitis (5 years). I have beed using fair amount of Psyllium hsk for more than two years. About 8 months before I increased the dose of psyllium and after a month or so I found gray, black, green rubbery stools (almost 6 times a day): this continued for 2 months and then stool got normal color but with a bit pungent oder for about 1 month. Then almost a month ago evry thing got normal but as ulcerative colitis is there so bowl movements (BMs) are 6+ times daily with excessive mucous as well. Plesae not that I has been using those heavy doses (almost 2-3 table spoon) of psyllium husk.
Than I studied about Bentonite clay liquid. My friend in canada sent me two bottles (1 litre each). Almost 3 weeks ago I started your prescribed formula 1 table spoon Bentonite + 2 table Spoon Psylium husk. Now even after 3 weeks I have found nothing black or green stuff (which most of people are mentioning here in this site). I am takinh two times a day with almost 4-5 litres of water intake and have 5-6 BMs with normal color and odor but mucus is there (probably due to ulcerative colitis).
I have not found any ohter side effects.
Now I have finsihed one bottle (1 Litre). Please advise me that:
Should I continue with second bottle for next 20 days or so. Or there is a chance that I have colon cleared from all bad stuff. Please tell me I am worried as I have only one bottle left and it is very difficult to get it from Canada once again as I living in Paksitan. Please note that bentonite clay liquid I am using is:
Bentonite 1 L - AD-27-04/AD-27-02

Hi Abbis
I am exactly the same as you on the shakes with no results maybe we are not doing enough water or maybe we are more loaded in the bowel than others and thta is why the shakes are taking longer to reach.
Please let me know if you get results i will let you know too.
Sarah
Hi Sarah,
Yes, I am unable to get the desired results. I am eliminating too much but not very normal color and oder. Nothing is green/gray/black rubbery, everything is normal. I have been taking almost 5 liters of water and my body weight is just 130 pounds (about 58 Kg) and my age is 29.
I know that I have bad stuff inside me as I has been suffering Ulcerative Colitis for 5 years. Now I wanted to cleanse my colon so that this help me to cope with ulcerative colitis.
Have you any disease or just normal cleansing?
Please do inform me about your experiences.
Thanks
Abbasi
I read your post and had a bit of a hard time understanding how long you were passing the gray-black-green rubbery material while taking the higher doses of psyllium. If you passed a substantial quantity of this material, it is possible that you cleared it all out at that time. Some people require 3-5 psyllium and Bentonite shakes per day before they begin seeing mucoid plaque. If I understand correctly, you are only taking two shakes a day...this could be another reason why you are not passing anything out of the ordinary. Also, some people take several weeks of cleansing before they start seeing results. Frankly, I can't say for sure if you have previously cleared out all this material or if you need to increase the number of shakes you take per day and continue with the cleanse.
There would be no harm in continuing the cleanse...although I am concerned with the amount of fiber you are taking on a daily basis...especially if it is powdered psyllium. The shake recipe is 1 Tablespoon of liquid bentonite + 1 teaspoon of powdered psyllium (or 1 Tablespoon of whole husk psyllium) in 8-10 oz. of water followed by another 8-10 oz. of plain water. Even if the total daily amount of fiber you take is the same...it is better to take it in smaller doses divided in more shakes.
You may also want to take a look at your diet to see if you are reacting to any food groups...particularly allergenic foods such as dairy, wheat, sugars, etc. This may be contributing to your ulcerative colitis.

I was having a sonagram yesterday and this lady came up to me and told me all about Dr. Shylze, so I'm going to try this cleanse. I've had problems with the psyllium, hurts my IBS tummy, but I'm still giving it a try. I've had severe IBS for 2 and a half years, constant bladder infections, and now my liver functions are messed up. The docers are making me worse. So here I come!!!

Just a note to you on the bladder infections. I know the drugs that the doctors give you on this are really do a number on your system. I have found that concentrated Cranberry caplets work wonders for bladder/tract infections. as soon as you feel it coming on, I take 3 caplets, and then 2-3 with each meal for 2-3 days and then decrease to 1-2/meal for a week.
I've tried that, doesn't work for me, now I'm trying garlic and a homemade tonic of junipers, fresh. Thanks for the reply!!! I have them and did take some today, surely something is going to work.
I used to live in Poland and they have extremaly good herbal remedy called Urosept, which you can buy at polstore on the web. It's a mix of chamomile , parsley, birch, cranberry and grape extracts. Always saved my life, with pleeeeeeenty of warm fluids, for me it's usually light hot tea with lemon.
Hey there,
I know you've posted this message long time ago, but I was wondering if you could tell me more about this polish store on line. I also used to live in Poland (near Poznan)and I know we/they have some good herbal teas. Right now I live in the state that doesn't have too many Polish people( maybe some, but most of them are 2nd or 3rd generation, plus I don't know any), so I don't have any Polish stores.
Anyway if you could give me some info I would appreciate it.
Hi Sherri, just a note regarding bladder infections. I have Interstitchel Cystitis, a condition brought on by numerous bladder infections. It is irreversable and causes microscopic blisters in the inside bladder lining. Anyway, what I've learned (and have done a lot of research on this) is that the bladder lining is already irritated and the long time standing "cranberry juice, etc." remedy does nothing except irritate the lining even more. Do not drink anything that will irritate the bladder. Instead, when you feel that horrid sensation that a bladder infection is coming on, dilute a teaspoon of Arm & Hammer Baking soda in a cup of water and drink it. This solidifies the acid irritating the lining and soothes it.
I can't stress to you how important this is. Doctors who advise drinking tons of cranberry juice when you have a bladder infection are old fashion, out-of-sync, and un-educated in this area, really. Even some Urologists who have no education of Interstitchel Cystitis. Check out the "Interstitchel Cystitis Foundation" on the web for additional info.

Hi Sherri, yes, cranberries in any form are still irritating. And yes, that's all I do when I start getting "that burning" or twinges of stabbing pains in my bladder (the beginning of either a bladder infection or a bout with the Interstitchel Cystitis, IC). I drink a cup of water with a teaspoon of baking soda maybe three times a day. I stop as soon as I don't feel any burning and most of the time does the trick. If it doesn't stop after two or three days, I have to go to the doctor for an antibiotic.
Usually, for me because I have this condition, lab tests show that I have miniscule drops of blood in the urine but no infection. This is when, again for me, it is the IC acting up. In that case my urologist gives me "Cipro," one of the best meds for IC.
By the way, I got this tip from the Interstitial Cystitis Foundation forum and it really does work.
Did you check out that website? If you're having problems with your bladder, read everything you can at that site, it's wonderful.
