CureYourBody.com is excited to announce the launch of
its new forums. The next several months will be critical to setting up the
forums the way you want them to be. So
if you feel we should add more categories or sub forums, please let us know.
We'll add sub forums on our own as well, if we feel a
large number of posts are being made on a specific topic. For example, "Colon Cleansing" was added as a sub forum to the Gastroenterology forum since there seems
to be a lot of posts for that specific subject.
I've been using the DrFloras colon cleanse now for about 30 days, and let me just say that I'm not going to take photos of what is coming out of me, but even if I did, you probably wouldn't believe it if I showed them to you.
I start the Dr Floras Parasite Defense next week. Watching the video on their site all but guaranteed I ordered it. It gives me the creeps just thinking about it.

Wow, it makes me want to buy the stuff. Not sure if you saw this, but a google search turned up this blog:

Hello Lisa, and welcome to the forums.
To answer your question, no, you don't have to worry about being around a bathroom. Unlike most cleansers on the market, the Dr Floras brand doesn't add crazy laxatives to their product, so your bowel movements will feel normal, that is, you shouldn't get diarrhea, or anything strange like that.
So yes, you can totally hold it. It sounds like you might have been jaded like I have been, by other products, that give us the runs and you have no choice but to sprint to a bathroom. That is why I love the DrFloras formula.
My sister ordered Dr Floras this past week and she has had a history of constipation, so her scenario is a bit different. She is starting on the Dr Floras Bowel Regulator, and that does make it so you might want to be around a bathroom, as it has the laxatives that other cleanses do. But that is the purpose of that product, to take you from a state of constipation and put you into a state of regularity.
I never used that product, so I can't honestly tell you if you do need to be by a bathroom or not, but i would imagine it would be a good thing to have around just in case. Again, that is just for the laxative product (the bowel regulator) which is sold separately from the main colon cleanse product.
I also told her to start her Dr Floras colon cleanse slowly -- that is, start with just one scoop the first day, then increase it to 2 scoops the second day, and then finally 3 scoops the 3rd day. I only advised her to do this because again, she is prone to constipation. And it is very important to drink a lot of water.
I have seen my best results by taking one dr floras colon cleanse shake before bed, and then one upon wakening, and then 2 more throughout the day. So four total, and it is crazy what is coming out.
I may take a photo and post it on here for the heck of it if I see it again, but I saw parasites or worms in one of the mucoid plaques that came out.
If you guys dont mind being grossed out, let me know and I will take a photo of one and post it here.
Thanks to all who answered. Can't wait for it to get here. My husband is always asking me what is wrong and I just tell him I am uncomfortable especially at night like now. WHen I sit and bend naturally it feels l like my ribs are touching the top of my intesines. I am a small person but it looks like I am pregnant at night. Wierd huh? I am tired and have no energy although I feel better in the morning. I don't eat much now because it just feels like I am feeding the already clogged sewer!! I really pray this is the answer. Sorry to be a cry baby but I need help.

Which products did you order? Are you currently regular?
The order in which I have taken the products is:
Colon Cleanse + Cleanse support daily for 15 days
Probiotics - I take at about day 10
Parasite Defense I start on Day 16 through Day 30
I have since started a 2nd cleanse, and will repeat, but then will take a few months off.
I can honestly say that I feel great, and I hope it helps you.
Remember to eat as cleanly as possible while on the cleanse, and try to separate your Dr Floras cleanse shakes at least 2 hours before or after a meal (the bottle says 1 hour, but i like 2, which works perfectly for me since I eat about every 4 hours.)
Good for you wimsical! I read alot about them all so I think I made an educated decision. Maybe the first time cleansers can let each other know how it worked for them. I know every body is defferent and reacts in different ways. So we will see. My choice was made mostly because it doesn't have laxatives and works over a two week period. I work as most do and can't just run to the potty at a moments notice. Good luck. Keep us posted.
Today my box of Dr Floras colon cleanse came. It feels strange to be so excited about this adventure but I am. I re-read everything about it and will start with a shake before I go to bed.Then tomorrow have one in the am then after lunch when the time is right. And again before bed so that should get the ball rolling I think. Arrival of the package came so quick, I was surprised.

TC, can you take a picture and post it here of what the powder looks like? I checked the DrFloras site and didn't see it there. Is it fine or coarse? What color?
Here is the picture of the powder. It is the color of light sand and is very fine. Personally I don't like the taste and have only tried it in water but oh well it's for a good cause.

I got my drfloras colon cleanse yesterday (that was fast.) I don't find the taste bad per se, but I read in one of the blogs on the DrFloras site that this person used half a glass of applue juice and half water, so that is what I have been using, and it is 10X better than using just water alone.
I have a pretty small stomach, so drinking a full glass of this and then chasing it down with another full glass of water is a chore for me. I feel pregnant for about 20 mins until I absorb a lot of the water I just drank
I've taken it 3 times already and this last time to the bathroom I noticed bowel movement changes, meaning it wasn't my normal bathroom break. It's starting to get exciting. Will keep you all posted.

Congratulations on taking the plunge. You're going to love DrFloras.
Remember, it's only 15 days of cleansing, so one thing I might suggest to make your cleanse experience better is to try fasting for the first 2 or 3 days you do it. I don't mean a complete fast where you cut out all food, but try limiting what you eat to just once per day (dinner) and make it small and try to eat a salad and not much else. It's only for 2 days, so you should be able to do it, and it will kick start the cleanse nicely.
Like you guys, I am drinking my cleanse powder down with apple juice, and sometimes with cranberry juice, although I can also do straight water. It's watever I feel like at the moment.
But really, try a 2 day fast where you eat almost nothing for 48 hours but drink a ton ... you should be peeing a lot throughout the day.
ok, it hasn't been that long but so far nothing different. Maybe I went to the potty this morning on a monday (work day) and I don't usually. Not that earth shattering or different. I am drinking 3 times day right now. How long before I should go to 4 x a day if at all? I am not working tomorrow due to storms in Fl so maybe the sky won't be the only thing to break loose! LOL
TC, you might as well go to 4X servings per day now if you didnt have constipation issues to start with. Also make sure you are taking a heaping scoop (as much as you can possibly get into the scoop without it falling all over the place), so mound it up high.
1) What are you drinking it with?
2) Are you taking any of the other products too?
3) You're making sure you take it on an empty stomach at least an hour from food, right?
It usually takes 2 to 3 days before you start seeing something out of the ordinary (like when they start floating... that is stage 1, I like to call it.) Stage 2, is when you realize you're not wiping your rush as much... everything seems to come out cleaner and together. Stage 3 is when you start seeing the ropes, and that doesnt always happen for everybody, because it depends on your diet, activity level, your current health, etc. But I wouldnt be surprised if you don't see something like that within a week.
You don't normally realize it's one until you unravel it by poking at it with something and then you freak out!
I started drinking the powder on Saturday before bed so it really hasn't been that long. I would not call myself constipated per se but just have a habit of going only every third day for all my life. Maybe because of rushing off to work, having 5 kids and all. The only thing I have noticed is I went again today. Because I am home today or the powder? Don't know.
I m drinking strictly with water and no it isn't heaping, actually level so I'll change that. I am also careful not to eat anywhere near taking the powder. I am just taking the powder right now because I bought 2 bottles and that's all I could afford right then. And I am very new to this.So I guess I need to relax and just go about my business and it will happen. As far as the fasting part, I am trying to eat no meat and no bread, just fruits and vegies during these 30 days. Thanks for your help.
Well its been about a week and nothing too strange, just now going to the bathroom every day which in itself is good. I haven't really been able to poke around in the potty but everything seems normal. I will continue with three times a day through the 15 days then start it one more time.
I have been doing some research on this and it seems that maybe 10-20% of people will show results that phsyically look like what you see in the photos. But the other 80-90% of people are still passing the mucoid plaque, it's just that it comes out looking slimy or is mixed in with all the normal waste, so you don't see it.
I am about a week into my program and like you I wasnt seeing anything.
BUT.....
As much as I hated to do it, this morning there was one that looked a little different, so I did poke at one finally this morning and sure enough, it did unravel into a ropey looking thing, but it was really slimey and looked like it had parasites or specs of something in it.
I don't normally recommend people poke out their bathroom results, but for peace of mind, it was neat for me. Give it a shot.
For me, the fact that I am going to the restroom regularly now, and that I feel a bit more energetic, it is worth it. I've got another 8 days before I run out and start the Dr. Floras parasite defense.
Are you taking the cleanse support as well, or do you just have the powder?
Hey everyone! I wanted to chime in because I am on day 11 of my cleanse and so far I have nothing but good things to say about the whole process.
I have experienced most of the benefits mentioned on the Dr Floras website. Now when I say some...I mean there are things I didn't have trouble with so I am not just going to blurt out it did everything for me. I was restless at night, I did not sleep well. Well those went away and I have been having some great nights of sleep lately. Headaches? I go those almost daily. I did not want to become a Motrin junky so I usually did not take anything for them. Well since I started the program I have not had a one past day 2. Focus....this is probably what plagued me the most. I was scatterbrained and took a lot of effort to stay on task. No longer. I have been a terminator lately mowing down project after project. I could not be happier with that.
Lastly and you won't see this on the website and maybe I am the only one who would discover something like this but....... ok I will just say it. I had relations with the wife and even on the fourth time that day I did not get what us guys would label a painful erection. I mean after your spent the body has it's way of telling you the gun is out of ammo. Not this time. As pleasant as the very first one. This I thought was amazing!
I did not see what I call "aliens" until day 10 and sure enough they made a repeat appearance today. I am going to start another message and copy what I have been putting in my blog every day. I hope this contributes to the conversation.
Turtle,
Thanks, wimsical,
Ok, I am still going ever day which is so not normal for me. So this I use as a good sign. I still am timid about poking but maybe I get the "guts" to do it soon. I am on day 10 and plan on doing one 15 day after another since this is my first time and I am cleaning out muck from 47 years. Do you really see specks? I don't know if I want to inspect that closely. I know what a baby! I too feel a little more energetic but is it because I should or I really do? I am taking only the powder because I got two bottles and couldn't afford anymore yet. I'll keep you posted.

You don't feel any pain. It is virtually like any other bowel movement. I mean I had one or two that kinda came out in a clump and unraveled after that but it wasn't a discomfort kind of thing.
I just finished my 15 day colon cleanse and because it was my first time, I will repeat it again for another 15 days. It doesn't hurt at all. The only thing I noticed was I was going everyday which is unusual for me. And the actual poop was different like in the photos. I really didn't poke around but I could see that it was different.
I ordered the product about three weeks ago and still haven't recieved it. So i can' t comment on its effectiveness. However, i will state that I find their tactic of offering free product (just days after i placed my order), in exchange for a testimony to be highly unethical and suspect. This "one time offer" good for only 48 hours for folks to record a message about the product that I have yet to receive, or better yet an opportunity to actually make an assessment. If this is legitimately good product, then the offer should be made several weeks after the order. Then you would have genuine testimonies.
I also ordered the Hoodia Prime. Total bust. No notable difference. And the requirement to take 6 pills a day, and the bottle is 60 caps. Really high price to pay for 10 days of Hoodia
Cleanser,
I know you started this thread a couple months ago, so I'm hoping you'll see this post... First of all, kudos to you, you colon cleansing guru! I've read several threads with your input, and it's really been informative.
I know you've spent quite a bit of time answering questions for people (very thorough answers), so I hope you're not too pooped out to answer one more question (pun intended). I did read your advice about fasting for the first 48 hours (you suggested one light meal a day for the first two days). Can you tell me how "strict" of a diet you would recommend after those first two days? I don't drink carbonated beverages, except for Diet Sprite, and I average two or three of those a week, so not daily. Do I need to eliminate the Sprite all together? As far as food... should I be thinking low carb or low fat? Do I need to eliminate/reduce my sugars? Focus on increasing the vegetables? Cut down on certain meats or all meats...? To be honest, I'm not a healthy eater, so I'm wondering how negative of an effect it could have on my colon cleanse if I don't follow the right diet... and what is the "right diet"?
Thanks for any input you can give. BTW, I am using the Dr. Floras Colon Cleanse. I got the Ultimate Kit, so I'll be taking the Cleanse Support as well, followed by Parasite Defense and Probiotics.
hello all i am woundring if DrFloras or any colon cleanser would work on eliminating Candida? i have about 50% of the systems and have been fighting weightloss and did some reading found this may resolve my issues along with a colon clease. was hoping this could benifite me both ways if not what product should i use?
Some of the most frequent Candida symptoms are:
