Agreed. I've passed few times the 5 day mark. Although I never passed any parasite, (which I attribute to fast passage and lots of fiber & frequent garlic and onion use in raw state) I have to acknowledge that my body asks for a flush or a colonic by day 4-5 (gurgling, gas, liquid moving uncomfortably in the intestines and feeling of something stuck in there). Last time it looked like all the mucosal layer was peeled-off and needed ( and was) removed - by the flush (there was no food remaining in, at this point)... After which I instantly felt much better and slept for hours.
