They are bs and can actually be very harsh and harmful. Merely eating a high fiber (though introduce high fiber foods gradually to help prevent stomach gas) diet including fruits, veggies, 100% whole grains/whole wheat and legumes can really help to keep one regular. If one is having difficulty with constipation, please check with the doctor, and please steer clear from laxatives as they are too harsh and can be addictive.

The infomercial is absurd.
Your colon doesn’t require special cleansing to eliminate waste and bacteria.
Your colon absorbs water and sodium to maintain your body’s fluid and electrolyte balance. Some colon-cleansing programs disrupt this balance, causing dehydration and salt depletion. Long-term or excessive cleansing programs can lead to problems such as anemia, malnutrition and heart failure.
Just drink water and eat fiber-rich foods.
It is great thing to do, but please do your reseach and look for a good place to do it. U will feel amazing after, so light and clean, go for it!
oh no….it’s on the TV….it MUST be true…
Your body is very efficient at getting rid of waste, and under normal circumstances there is no need cleanse your colon. You’ll see much better improvements by eating well and getting decent exercise. Some research even suggests that colon cleansing removes nutrients from your body. Unless your doctor or a health professional recommends that you do this, I would stay away from it.
TOTAL BS- in fact, there’s an entire episoded about it on "Penn & Teller BS"! Funny, right =) The average US citizen doesn’t get one third the recommended amount of daily fiber, and thus these sorts of things become fads… solution: vegetables, whole weat, fiber fortified foods, metamucil even. An important thing about these is that they can be harmful because they flush out the bacteria that you need in your GI tract (specifically colon)- please do NOT do it.
