I did a series of colonics a couple of years ago, and I would have to say that it definitely changed my life for the better. The experience itself wasn’t all that enjoyable, but the results were definitely worth it. It can be a bit uncomfortable when you’re full of water and the therapist is massaging your abdomen, but the therapist I saw gave me essential oils of peppermint and eucalyptus to inhale when I was feeling nauseus (which helped). Overall it made a big difference in my regularity (which I hadn’t thought was bad before), as well as with my seasonal allergies. I would definitely recommend it.

Jill answers:

For what you get out of it, neither is worth the $$$$$$$$. The pills are expensive and so is the colonic. I did 2 of them in the past. I found that eating a proper diet and drinking lots of water will actually give you the same results. Also, the insertion of the speculum during the colonic hurts. Try it if you want, but you will probably feel like you wasted your money.

Jill answers:

The differences in the method is that Bowtrol and Oxy-Powder is taken internally in the form of a capsule. Oxy-Powder has a slightly more restricted diet, and with Bowtrol you can continue on your normal diet without much change except it is recommended that you drink more water.

With colon hydrotherapy, you lie on an exam table while purified water run very slowly in the colon. The abdominal area is massaged while the water is flowing out into a glass viewing tube. In one session approximately two to six liters flows in and out of the large intestines. Both methods will give you the same results – a cleanse and detox of your intestinal system. However Bowtrol/Oxy-Powder is much less invasive and you can do this in the privacy of your home.

Jill answers:

Hi Rissa, yes you can take a colonic while not cleansing. I know several people that take them once a month along with enemas to help keep things moving.

Jill answers:

It cleans out the colon. People get it since their colon is full of it. Unprocessed plant foods have plenty of fiber and keeps the colon clean. Meat, dairy, wheat and other stuff clogs the colon. See this site below for more on this and something that you can do yourself at no cost.

True diarrhea in a rabbit is serious and needs a vet’s attention. Are your sure it is diarrhea and not excess cecals? That is serious too, but you can start dealing with that at home before you see the vet. This article should help:

and here are some other articles that may help:

Please call you vet and discuss the situation and what you can do at home until you can get your rabbit in.
Good luck,

If they are adults, I would say worms. What are you worming with?

If you are not worming (most people are unaware that you need to). Go to a local feed store, buy a tube of ivermectin for horses, and give them the dose according to weight.

As stated, it could be cocci, but that doesn’t affect adults usually, not enough to kill them. It sounds like worms to me.

Be sure to keep them hydrated, I have a doe that I took back from a buyer, because she was so thin, and had diarrhea, I have her on an I.V. And she is on just about every supplement and medicine I have.

If you have a goat savvy vet, I would really recommend a visit. If they are anemic, they could really use a shot of iron, but the dosing is tricky unless you know what you’re doing.

With further questions you can e-mail me at foxifrenubians@aol.com, I’ll try to help in any way I can.

Jill answers:

It would be a good idea to have the docs look at a stool sample – its the only way to know for certain if the drugs actually worked. The drug you are taking itself often causes all sorts of gastrointestinal problems.

Jill answers:

My dogs hate the taste of Pepto, so I usually give them a tablespoon or so of Kaopectate – I also find it works better than Pepto.

Thanks for providing all the other relevant information, since that means you know when it’s time for the vet. But the occasional bout of mild diarrhea can be treated at home.

Jill answers:

It will not work even if you have the same pills. These “magical” weight loss pills only work to reduce your water weight temporarily. Your weight might be lower on the scale for a while, but you will have the same amount of body fat. Eat healthy, watch your calories and exercise in order to lose weight permanently. Doing things the “hard way” is worth it.

?

Jill answers:

The two products are expensively useless.
Colon cleanse will give you diarrhoea – you lose fluid not fat.
There are no magical berries from Brazil, it’s a hyped up scam.
There are more antioxidants in blueberries, black cherries and /concord grapes.
Antioxidants will not aid weight loss.

Oprah Winfrey, Mehmet Oz, and Rachael Ray have all publicly disassociated themselves from the açai sites that make unauthorized use their names.
The diet ‘bloggers’ are just a mirage, their weight loss is courtesy of Photoshop, not açai.

Hi Megan,

Personally, I’ve had a lot of success with the product Colon Clean (you can get more details on my website if you like – they do offer a good free trial).

Colon cleanse products are designed to help clear out the gunk that accumulates in the intestines over years of eating meat and junk food. Think about it – the human body isn’t designed to process all the artificial chemicals we add to food, so it’s natural for some bits and pieces to get trapped in the colon. These left over bits can lead to some serious health consequences over time if they aren’t addressed.

Using a colon cleanse product removes the left over gunk, so users do see some initial weight loss as the colon is cleaned out. In addition, cleaning the colon enables it to digest foods better, so you won’t have as much buildup in the future. People who use colon cleanse products often report having higher energy levels and feeling healthier overall than ever before – both of which can make it easier to stick with a healthy diet and exercise plan.

The most important thing to remember is to look for a colon cleanse product that’s gentle and includes a pro-biotic supplement. While you’re cleaning the intestine, you’ll be wiping out some of the beneficial bacteria that live there. It’s important to choose a product that replaces them, since low bacteria levels can give you lots of trouble digesting foods in the future.

Anyways, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me – I’d be happy to discuss the program I used with you!

Are you adequate hydrated daily? You may want to try this Water Therapy.

Drink about 6 glasses of water (1.5 Litres) daily and safe on medical bills (no need medicines, no need injections, no need endless diagnosis, no more expensive doctor fee etc). You can never believe before practicing.

Jill answers:

Colon cleansing has absolutely no medical benefit and is in fact harmful to the digestive system. Old science from the late 1800′s when meat was the main food and people were constipated all the time. Not enough fruit and vegetables.
There is no build up of bad plaque, toxins, or sludge in a normal, reasonably healthy system.
If this was the case we would have people dying left and right from malnutrition since their small intestines couldn’t absorb nutrients.
The majority of the water from food and what we drink is reabsorbed through the colon, if our colons were clogged we would all be walking around looking like sponges right?
Detoxing is ridding the system – liver, kidneys, and intestines of toxins both internal and environmental. Additionally, many toxins are stored in our fat cells so in order to truly “detox”, you need to lose excess body fat as well to fully detox.
Our liver and kidneys aren’t clogged with toxins. Otherwise we would be dead.
The liver does in fact get layered with fat when we become overweight.
We “cleanse and detox” naturally 24 hours a day through respiration, sweat, liver, and kidneys.
We can help by eating a healthy diet with minimal added sugar and salt. Lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grain foods, beans, peas, and brown rice keep a system as healthy as it can be.
Minimal alcohol, caffeine, soda.
Read food labels. If you can’t pronounce it, don’t put it in your body.
A healthy high fiber diet works every time.
Increases the speed and efficiency of the digestive system and helps the body rid itself of both internal and environmental toxins.
Did you know the digestive system is one of the largest contributors to our immune system?
Cleanses actually flush out the beneficial bacteria and enzymes in the digestive system. Search gut flora to learn about the beneficial bacteria we need in our colon.
We have more beneficial bacteria in our digestive systems than all the cells in our bodies!
They don’t tell you about the gas, cramping, and bloating you will experience when you start eating again and the body has to rebuild this bacteria population.
Spend your money in the produce department.
Good luck.

Usually stress and coffee – I just call up a family member, pour a cup of java and voila!

Jill answers:

Sounds like endometriosis to me — I have it and I would get stabbing feelings. Feels kind of like someone is stabbing you through your rectum into your abdomen. This is also how I felt when my baby dropped, although it was much sharper, came in waves like contractions, and lasted off and on for two days. How far along are you?

As for the bruised ribs, if baby is big enough and kicking you in the ribs they probably are bruised, on the inside. Once I get far enough along I will get pains in my rib cage as they need to make room for baby.

All that being said, ask you doctor.

Jill answers:

Try the Master Cleanse. It’s becoming more popular now that Beyonce admitted to using it. She used it for weight loss, but in reality it is supposed to cleanse your system of toxins in the body. It consists of maple syrup, lemonade (lemon juice) and cayenne pepper. You can find all sorts of receipes for it on the internet. Try the link below….

Jill answers:

Blood down there, that’s not good. From what you have describe it could be just like you guessed it. Hemorrhoids!

Don’t be afraid, you just have to get the correct diagnose from your doctor. If it is Hemorrhoids, the doctor will put you on some form of adult suppositories for over a week.

*if blood is still present even with treatment there are more invasive procedure that the doctor might order like a colonoscopy.

Jill answers:

I would take a blanket (that your willing to lose) that your baby uses quite frequently and hold your cat in it OR put it by your cats bedding. Your cat will become comfortable with the smell of your baby.

I would interact with your cat as often as you could, especially infront of the baby, so she understands that you love him/her just as much.

I would also reward your cat when she comes close to the baby, such as warm praises & treats.
good luck

Further you chew the morsel till it is liquid and then only take another in mouth.

This will greatly control your food intake and give your mouth good exercise. It will also be fewer burdens on your digestion system and your food will directly become blood .this again will give you more energy and nourishment and waste will be minimum…

______________________________________________
People do not Love their body and when they stop loving themselves, they ignore and in that they start damaging the body by eating wrong foods, eating too much eating at wrong times, avoid the exercise etc. The reasons are many

And eat to your hearts delight … Do not starve yourself… Enjoy food but eat each morsel and make it liquid and then allow it to go down your throat … This will be another exercise in your life along with Jogging, so jogging and chewing both are your work, prayer and worship

Jill answers:

I don’t think poop is acidic per se, but it can cause itching if it’s not cleaned off your skin good enough (Come on, it’s happened to us all!) Maybe holding it in too many times too long has weakened your sphincter muscle, causing some uh…. Leakage. I’d suggest you see a proctologist.

Jill answers:

Not a problem with your rectum – like a boiling teapot, it’s just your brain letting off a little steam – continue on and stop worrying, just avoid elevators and small closets
