Is Colon Cleansing Safe?   Read About the Benefits

The Colon Cleansing Kit by Blessed Herbs is defined as an eight day colon cleansing program, not including the fasting period. However, to "achieve maximum amount of colon cleansing and mucoid plaque removal" you need to add one day to the cleansing program, making it a 9-day colon cleansing program.

You also have an option to do a 30-day colon cleanse. Following this cleansing program can be quite difficult. Luckily, Blessed Herbs sends out handy User Manuals & Dosage Calenders in every cleansing kit. These are great tools consumers can utilize to help simplify their colon cleansing program.

The first step of the Blessed Herbs Colon Cleansing Kit, is known as the Pre-Cleanse. You basically start cutting your food portions down in preparation for the fast, and slowly introduce the "Toxin Absorber" and "Digestive Stimulator" into your system. The next step is known as the Main Cleanse. You can only consume clear liquids during this step. You also must take the "Toxin Absorber" every three hours, five times a day. Followed with the "Digestive Stimulator" before bed.

Blessed Herbs was founded by Michael & Martha Volchok. It is a successful, family-run business that has been around for over twenty years. Martha Volchok, the creator of The Colon Cleansing Kit and member of the American Herbalist Guild, is an experienced herbalist with over 30 years under her belt.

The price of Blessed Herbs is $89.50 for one round of colon cleansing, consisting of either 8 or 9 days. This seems very high for one week of colon cleansing. To make the situation worse, Blessed Herbs does NOT offer free shipping, so it's gonna cost you extra to send the product to your house. With such a high cost for the product, it should only be assumed that would include free shipping. However, this colon cleansing program does not include Free Shipping.

The customer service representatives explained that everybody is different. Some people experience "standard detox symptoms". Some people may be allergic to an ingredient in The Colon Cleansing Kit. Some may feel that they are bloated and uncomfortable.

The most common complaints mentioned were mainly the fasting period during the cleanse. In general, people find it hard to NOT eat anything solid and drink only clear liquids for 5 days straight. There were also noticable mentions of headaches, bloating, cramps and other "standard detox symptoms".

The product labels for each component of the cleansing kit are simple, boring and plain. It looks as if the label was designed in Microsoft Word, and not some high-tech graphics program. However, the label still contains all the important information, ingredients, instructions and FDA Compliance Statement.

Blessed Herbs makes up for the plain product labels, by packaging The Colon Cleansing Kit in an information-filled cardboard box. Inside the box, are two binded notebooks. One is an indepth user guide and the other is a dosage calendar. These are two great tools that every complicated colon cleansing program should include and allows the consumers to truly utilize the benefits of this cleansing program. The packaging of The Colon Cleansing Kit is quite impressive.

BlessedHerbs.com is a very basic and simple website. However, all the important information is there and is easy to find. Except, there are no customer testimonials listed anywhere on the website. They do have a short list of "third-party recomendations," but that doesn't make up for the absent success stories from their satisfied customers. Although the important stuff is all there, this site definitely needs a make-over to bring them into this millineum.

90 day return policy. Hassle Free. Blessed Herbs offers the best guarantee of any colon cleansing product. But, they only refund the price of the product, not any shipping costs.

The main concern that many people express,is the use of Bentonite Clay in the use of The Colon Cleansing Kit. Bentonite Clay is a topic of much debate within the colon cleansing world. Some feel that since it's actually aluminum that one should not ingest heavy metals during an intestinal cleanse. Others claim that the expanding and absorbing qualities of the clay are more beneficial and effective than psyllium husks. It must be noted that Bentonite Clay is commonly used in cat litter, cement and adhesives. It's best to consult your doctor and do your own research on Bentonite Clay and make an educated decision for yourself.

The use of Bentonite Clay may be debated, but it must be noted that it can be easily attained at local health stores and through online stores. This may be a better alternative for the finacially-disabled.
