Hi y'all! The purpose of this is to encourage newbies and to give an update to all of you, my friends!

I have just finished 30 days on Colonix. (I am a healthy 34 year old mom, and did this to support my husband who really needs the cleanse due to mysterious symptoms...). So far, I would reccomend this cleanse. I chose it because i am travelling (at a hotel right now!) and we needed something easy, gentle, and that we only had to do morning and evening. I also purchsed the Paranil Jr. parasite program from the Dr. Natura site for our kids, ages 9,7,5.

We had all the 'ususal' symptoms; headaches, itchy spots, slicht upset tummy, etc. The symptoms I had not expectred were low energy, and not being able to sleep between the hours of 12pm and 3 am. Interestingly enough, others on this forum have experienced these symptoms. How glad i was to have the forum as a resource to discuss this! On day 26 or so I experienced cramping in the early morning (like 2.am) and then passed a rope-y thing! It was not as black or as thick as the pictures, but it was stinky and huge, with lots of encapsulated junk. As soon as i passed it, I had a great rush of energy that has not abated. This was worth the whole experience!

Much can be found on this forum about the cleanses (i encourage you to read all the posts!), so I just want to add a few thoughts about the opportunities a cleanse can provide...

TO TAKE BACK YOUR POWER: Though i have always been healthy, I am now experiencing how powerful it feels to be proactive about and take charge of my health, to realize the choices about my life are mine, and i should use other's 9even doctor's) opinions as just that... OPINIONS I should analyze and consider. Ultimately, the one who knows what is best for my body is ME.

TO LEARN TO LISTEN TO YOUR BODY: Am i drinking enough water? Do I need more fiber? Less? How do i feel right now? Cleansing has given me the opportunity to re-learn to listen, and to make connections between how i am feeling and what I am doing.

TO PROCESS OLD EMOTIONS: There is no doubt about it, when you release bowel junk ( and even helathy people have a little junk) you have the opportunity to 'let it go' both literally and figuratively. I was scared of having to re-live painful memories, but fortunately it was nothing so dramatic. Rather before 'big movements' I would experience slight anxiety, frustration, sadness, etc, and when the junk would pass, so would the emotion, leaving me feeling lighter. I even dreamed about folks i had not thought of for years, with emotion, and then 'pass' it. Lest you feel scared, this was not uncomfortable feeling! It felt good, healthy, and beautiful.

TO CHANGE MY HABITS: While on the cleanse i lost the taste for sweets. I hope to keep up this habit when I am done! White flour stuff feels really gross to me too.... a further example of how I am becoming more tuned in to what is bad for my body.

Newbies: do you need to cleanse? I say... why not? I am the picture of health (i thought) and it has been most useful to me. What cleanse do you need to do? Only you know the answeer to that! Research,research, research (part of taking back the power) and one cleanse will keep standing out to you.

Remember, there are no magic bullets... it is a PROCESS. And an exciting one at that!!!

Wow- I could go on and on! I am at a hotel now and wee are about to leave, so I will wrap it up. Thank you, curezone family for being my encouragement and inspiration during this. Here's to another month! My love and blessings to you all!
