Re: Katie

Katie,

What a bummer. I am sorry to hear that. I do not take triphala alone. The CleanseMore contains triphala, slippery elm, rhubarb root, cape aloe gel, and magnesium hydroxide. Does the product you are taking contain any of these other ingredients? A lot of these ingredients are to help with lubrication and to maintain hydration of the stool - sounds like you need that - I know I do. I am the king of constipation and this really works for me. I have never taken more than two capsules a day (once I tried three but that proved to be too much). I also take their OilSmart which promotes lubrication and includes omega 3,6,9 oils. As I take both of these products, perhaps that is the difference. I take everything right after eating dinner. This usually produces one really good bm before 10am and several other smaller bm's throughout the day.

I buy the larger bottles of each and they usually last for several months.

I also do not mix the CleanseMore with the Colosan. The Colosan goes right through me (although I have to take two doses for it to work). I figure if I mixed in the CleanseMore, it would just wash it right away and thus I would be wasting it.

Let me know if you have any other questions about this. I have Brenda Watson's book (founder of Renew Life), Renew Your Life, and it contains a ton of great information on getting your bowels moving. These products have really helped me. Hopefully one day I will be able to do it on my own!!
