Day 40 of my Colonix colon cleansing review was pretty uneventful. I had a normal trip to the bathroom this morning shortly after waking up, no picture-worthy stools…

Interesting blog. I’m wondering about the composition of those mucoid blobs. A thought occurred to me that they may be mainly coagulated fiber + some normal fecal matter + mucus. I’m not convinced that they represent old loosened fecal matter that has previously adhered to your intestinal walls.
Another thing… mucus can increase in the colon due to various matter being present there. I’m wondering if they’ve discovered & use such matter in their product/s to create that affect.
What are your thoughts?
Thx, D
p.s.: So far what I’ve seen may be caused mainly be the increase in fiber that you’ve been taking. I wonder, if instead of using the Colonix program, you might have achieved the same or similar results (i.e. increase bowel output & frequency), had you simply increased your water intake & took an equal amount of inexpensive fiber. Keep in mind that many people who are chronically constipated don’t have sufficient fluid intake, eat poorly (too much meat, too many refined foods (which lack fiber, and therefore move more slowly through the digestive tract), and have intolerances to certain foods (milk, wheat, corn, etc. — which might be causing immune system over-reactions (i.e. an increase of mucus in the digestive & elimination tract — which is similar to how the nose over reacts to airborne allergens). From what I’ve read, if mucus increases & remains present for too long of a period of time, it can cause mal-absorption of nutrients — which can later create malnutrition symptoms, indigestion symptoms, & IBS like symptoms, etc. Such negative affects gradually slow down fecal transit time through the system and then more negative symptoms begin to occur due to the toxins that are reabsorbed back into the blood in the large intestine.

Thanks a lot for the comment, you make some really interesting points. I guess the only way to really know for certain is to take a stool sample to a lab and have it evaluated to see what the composition is.
You would think that if Dr. Natura was using something in their Colonix program to intentially increase the levels of mucus creation, someone would have called them out on it by now.
It would be great if someone had access to a lab and could do some tests while they’re going through the Colonix treatment.
