V&V's - Did you ever consider a colonoscopy or cleanse after you changed diets?!

V&V's - Did you ever consider a colonoscopy or cleanse after you changed diets?

It sounds gross - but a friend said it does wonders for you. Any takers? Anyone have experience here?

I think you mean colonic, not colonoscopy (a test where they sedate you and examine your colon for cancer and polyps, reccomended for older people regardless of diet).

I've heard that colon cleanses are just a bunch of psyllium and don't really do anything for you...you can get psyllium husks at grocery stores and mix them into a smoothie and save the money on the pricey colon cleanse. Colonics are bad for you too....they can send germs up higher into your colon and increase your risk of cancer.
