Smart Colon Flush

Smart Colon Flush Overview

With the recent news regarding the increase of colon cancer, cleansing products have become very popular, many being marketed and sold on the internet. Like  similar products, Smart Colon Flush, which also goes under the name Smart Colon Cleanse, promises to not only cleanse the colon but also decrease bloating and gas, improve the skin, increase mental clarity and help weight loss. Despite the claims, the manufacturers of Smart Colon Flush do very little to provide a decent amount of information for the prospective customer and the official website is highly exaggerated and gimmicky, using media quotes and videos that are unrelated to the actual brand.

Liquiboost

Liquiboost Overview

Marketed on a well-designed and easy to use website, Liquiboost claims to not only aid in weight loss but also have a number of other health benefits.

Cleansonix

Cleansonix Overview

Due to reports in the media regarding the prevalence of colon cancer and related diseases, there has been a surge of colon cleansing products available on the market. Most of these products promise that ridding the body of impacted and ‘toxic’ waste in the intestine not only cuts the risk of disease but also improves energy, decreases bloating, constipation and gas, and can even result in weight loss.

Cleansonix colon cleanser is very similar to many other brands except that instead of a capsule it comes in powder form. The Cleansonix website is very brief and does not really explain the need for the product, only that it will have all the effects listed above. The site is simple and easy to use and contains a few useful sections such as FAQ and customer testimonials. Unfortunately it provides no clinical studies to show how well the product performs and there is no information as to how long the consumer must use the product or whether it requires prolonged use for maintenance.

Details Of Cleansonix

The details regarding the ingredients in Cleansonix are good; the full ingredient list is shown and the major ingredients are accompanied with detailed explanations. The product contains all natural substances and has the advantage of also using 8 patented formulas in the powder. These include OatVantage, Viscofiber, LinumLife flaxseed, Litesse, VitaVeggie, Fibersol-2 and Cinnulin PF. The amounts for all these are shown but because the remaining ingredients which include green tea extract, Aloe Vera, psyllium, grapefruit and apple pectins and fennel, are in a proprietary blend, their amounts are unknown.

The instructions for taking Cleansonix are very simple, requiring 1 scoop (which is provided) of the powder, mixed with water 1-2 times per day. According to the testimonials the powder is pleasant tasting and can also be mixed with juice if preferred.

Cleansonix Advantages

• Cleansonix contains 8 patented formulas
• There is adequate fiber in the product to increase regularity
• The product has a 100% money back guarantee
• Discounts are given on multiple orders
• The company recommends following a low-fat, high fiber diet
• The website includes consumer testimonials
• There are no complaints reported against the manufacturers at the time of writing
• Proper elimination may cut the risk of colon disease
• The product suitable for those averse to swallowing capsules
• The powder is pleasant tasting

Cleansonix Disadvantages

• Cleansonix is expensive, costing $79.99 per month
• The product is not available in retail stores
• No clinical study results are shown
• Some of the ingredient amounts are unknown
• The information for Cleansonix is brief and uninformative
• There are no independent consumer reviews for the product
• No free trial is offered

The Bottom Line

Cleansonix is like so many other colon cleansers on the market and there is nothing about it that makes it unique in any way. While it is good that it does at least contain patented formulas, it would have been useful to see how well it actually performed in studies. Instead, the potential consumer has to rely on the word of the customer testimonials which can often be biased.

Although it is true that regular elimination decreases constipation and does make the intestinal tract healthier, there is no solid evidence to show that an over-the-counter colon cleanser would really have much benefit in the long term. Anyone suffering from occasional constipation, gas or bloating would do just as well taking a gentle laxative and increasing the amount of fiber in their diet, than spending almost $80.00 a month on this product.

Power Colon Cleanse

Power Colon Cleanse Overview

The detoxifying product Power Colon Cleanse is designed to not just cleanse the system but also encourage regularity, rid the body of parasites, decrease gas and water retention. The product is presented very poorly on a one page website that uses some questionable marketing techniques and gimmicky statements. As with many other colon cleansers that are sold over the internet the manufacturers show photos of Hollywood celebrities to suggest that the product is used by them, although this is likely not the case. Likewise, the site uses media news logos from MSNBC and CBS with quotes from the shows regarding the dangers of colon cancer and its prevalence among North Americans. Another part of the site features an article from the Oprah Winfrey talk show which also dealt with colonic cancer, but again, no mention of the Power Colon Cleanse product is made.

Colovox

Colovox Overview

Colovox is a fairly recent addition to the colon cleanser market and has a reasonably informative official website. The site is mostly free of over-exaggeration, although it does use a few ‘scare-mongering’ phrases when describing the dangers of toxic build-up in the colon (e.g. describing them as ‘poisonous’). The Colovox website does not feature any news quotes regarding the increase of colon cancer in North America, as many other colon products do. Nor does it provide statistics or clinical studies showing proof that colon cleansers have any effect on the health of the colon or the need for ‘at home’ cleansers. Read the rest of this entry »
