I think that in your case it is more
important to examine the colon polyps than
performing a colon cleanse. Colon cancer
usually develops from polyps in the colon.
Polyps are benign at first but then they
can become malignant (turn into a cancer).
In your case there is higher risk for
malignant transformation because your
mother and uncles died from colon cancer.
All the polyps must be removed via
endoscopyc intervention and analyzed by a
pathologist.
