Ok, ladies, I know some of you do a tremendous amount of research on health and others are in the health-related fields. My SO and I were watching TV yesterday and we saw this VERY BAD infomercial for some product for a 7-day colon cleanse. I thought the guy was really irritating but some of the things he said SEEMED to have some grain of truth in them.
Specifically he said that years of eating products with artificial ingredients leave residue (or plaque) in the body (colon) that it would be best to get rid of. My kids were cracking up since he kept saying, "You are what you don't eliminate." LOL
Of course, he was pushing a product which I think is some kind of supplement that you use for fasting and I would never buy such a thing from an infomercial, but I'm wondering as to the basic underlying premise here. Is there any truth to this at all?
Curiously,
Marie
