This video sheds light on a procedure being done by many people: colonics, also known as colonic hydrotherapy. This video discusses claims made by proponents of colonics and explains why the science does not back them up. We will also discuss how the colon works and how to keep your gut health naturally. The video features an interview with a postdoctoral fellow and professor at McMaster University who conduct research on gut health and diseases like irritable bowel disease.
This video was made by McMaster students Sundas, Abhiti, Veronica and Nirushaa.

Colonics are definitely helpful. After I had 3 sessions, my periods were much lighter. That was two years ago. I started having heavy periods again. The periods were so painful, not even pharmaceutical pain medication could touch it. So I remembered how the colonics helped. Once again, my periods were lighter and I noticed how much energy I had the next morning. I was able to get up early without much effort. Definitely recommend but a change in diet is going to cement those benefits. No more cereal or bread 🥖 for me, it turns to rock in the colon and makes my periods hell.

So true these are conventional medicine who dont know anything about alternative medicine and just narrow minded around their limited medical training.

Exactly. Anything to keep us out the Dr office they are against. The pharmaceutical companies get paid from drs writing prescription

Every person that I've spoken with about colonics that has had on says they love it. And every video like this that I've seen on KZfaq if filled with comments of people saying these people don't know what they are talking about. I spoke with my daughter about colonics and she says she loves them so I know I'll be getting on soon. What's weird is that medical doctors used to say the same thing about chiropractors. But eight years ago when I had a herniated disk my doctor wanted me to get back surgery and I told him no. I chiropractic therapy for 3 months and I mild workouts for a few months more and I was good to go.

Is once a month good, for cleaning our colon?

My friend talks about colonics as a purging of intestinal parasites. Any truth to that?

Very true

yes i released a lot through enemas and colonics....but now I rarely do them because I think it can mess with the microbiome ....I think they can be ok to cleanse...but some people I know who have done them often, long term have had issues

Protein - not necessarily meat is a very dangerous statement. We also needs fats. Diverse fruits and veggies are also dangerous esp. when you feel bloating everytime.

My ignorant self had a water pressure hose to clean my bum after pooping. I discovered that I could get the water up my large intestine and flush it back out to get rid of everything. Been doing it for 2 years. Now im constipated and without a laxative that I insert in my bum, it’s impossible for me to poop. Im taking probiotics now. Any suggestions?? HELP!! 😭😭

Wel first of all you’re not supposed to put a hose in your butt and who knows how much pressure it was. I love colonics and I always recommend them but go to a profession. Don’t do this yourself but if you don’t know what you’re doing you can hurt yourself which you might have done.
