I keep hearing about it on the news- abc, today show, ect. and i'm just wondering if it does actually really work... Anyone ever try it or think of trying it?
You cannot cleanse your colon. I know that. It might seem to work because most of those "diets" are predicated on drinking lots of liquid, which makes most people eat less.
Anything that labels itself "colon cleanse" is generally either A) really irritating to the colon, which makes you think it's doing something special or just like the clean out that you do for a colonoscopy. Drinking that much liquid will definitely clean you out, but that's about it.

The colon is naturally self-cleansing.
