Oxypowder Colon Cleansing??
Posted: 02-19-07 12:51pm

hi. I just read another topic that spoke of colon cleansing.

My grandma is insisting that I try OxyPowder Colon Cleanser. Has anyone ever heard of it? If so, can you give me some advice about it, because I'm kinda nervous about colon cleansing.

Any advice would be appreciated. She's coming down this weekend, and I know she's gonna force me to try it. I either need a good reason too or a great excuse to avoid it. Please help!

Oxypowder
Posted: 02-21-07 05:34am

I have been using Oxypowder for quite a while, and I must say it is a fantastic product, a friend of mine recommended it to me. I suffered from constipation and have tried many different products but oxypowder is by far the best. I continually take the oxypowder has part of a maintenance program after I did the initial cleanse, they keep my colon cleansed and healthy.

I usually purchase mine from Ebay from a company called Oxyhealth, they do next day delievry as well which is great if you forget to order and are running short.

Two thumbs up for oxypowder................I know, sounds like a very commerical type name.............but believe me I tried all the usual stuff not to mention some unusual things(in the name of desperation) to get my little boy regular.................oxypowder worked and to keep the price down................after following the initial cleanse, ie maintenance dose..............I give him 1 oxypowder per night along with 2 senna(herb capsules found easily in most health food stores).........the oxy runs approximately 42/bottle CAN. and the senna is only about 12/bottle

...............what I like about it the most is unlike somethings that seem to work and then after a bit they stop working........even after a higher dosage......................the oxy keeps working.............it's definitely in my top 10 Smile

Really? You guys are that fond of it?

Is it really that good??? Cuz, I've done alot of research on it, and it seems "too good to be true."

I mean, your reply's sound just like my grandma, whenever she's talking about it. That's three people that have all had successful results.

Well, she's coming down in two days... so I guess I'll be trying it in two days. I'll let you know what I think...

I'll write the directions from the back of the bottle:

Cleansing:Start by taking 4 capsules in the evening on an empty stomach with a full 8 oz glass of water. If you do not achieve3-5 bowel movements the following day, you will then increase the dosage by adding two more capsules every night until you achieve 3-5 bowel movements the following day. Once you find your dosage this is day one of the seven day cleanse. You will stay on this dose for seven consecutive days. After the seven days take the maintenance dose.....................

...............it took 8 pills to get my boy going................but now he's maintained on 1 oxypowder and 2 senna per night..............................oh yea, if your gonna do it....................the weekend is a good time................and make sure your close to a toilet.............

............couldn't hurt to try...............and yeah, the website looks too good to believe..............I think this product will probably make it's mark more through the word of mouth than anything................................pa rdon the pun................but, it's good sh*t Smile

only thing is...senna is a stimulant laxative and NOT suitable for long-term use. You should be careful with your son.

please read about senna.

for bulk, instead of psyllium which seems to clog a lot of people, buy some flax seed and a coffee grinder, and eat/drink a teaspoon a day. It tastes nutty in water, and almost tasteless on food.

Agreed!.................herbs should be closely monitored and given the opportunity their use should be reduced......................however if after many many differents methods used and nothing else worked(it is Very Individual)....................and the dangers of being long term constipated or long term diaherra.................I have weighed the risks, and believe they are minimal......................keeping in mind, he is my boy............but the size of a full grown adult................bigger than me in fact.................also I intent to keep an open mind and give thought to other ideas........................the psyllium and flaxseed has been tried and failed miserably here, but doesn't mean it won't work for others........................Thanks for your concern Smile

Oxypowder Is the Best Colon Cleanser
Posted: 04-17-07 13:02pm

I've suffered from chronic constipation since I was 17. I've gone through every kind of laxatives & stool softeners, from prescription grade to over the counter. Those are no good. I've also tried two kinds of colon cleansers. THe first one was Colonix, and it made me really really constipated. I felt ill the whole time I was using Colonix. On my doctors orders, I stopped taking it in my third week.

In search of an alternative I found this website with lots and lots of information about constipation. Thru this website, I discovered Oxypowder. I never heard of it before then, and I did alot of research about it. I then asked my doctor, who is very very familiar with my constipation issues. He told me he would look into it the ingredients and let me know what his thoughts were. He later told me to give it a try, but he expressed his doubt.

After just two weeks on oxypowder, I called him and told him how great I was feeling. I told him I was having at least 2-3 bowel movements a day. No cramps or bloating. It's been a year now, and I have been using oxypowder every other day since. I'm really glad I found it.

It sounds cheesy, but it really did give me a new freedom in my life.

Constipation Free
Posted: 04-18-07 15:20pm

I used to suffer from occasional constipaiton. I tried a colon cleanser called Dual Action Cleanse and it was a HUGE ripoff! I ended up losing more money then I intially paid upfront. Long Story.

Anyways, I ended up trying Blessed Herbs a few months later, but I couldn't handle fasting like it requires you to do in the beginning.

So, the next one I tried was oxypowder. I was surprisingly impressed with the results I got from it. I no longer suffer from constipation, and I feel great. I've gone on and told a few college buddies about it and they have all used it as well.

It's been almost a year now, and I've used oxypowder ever since. They recommend that you take a 'maintenance dose' every other day. But I have a different plan. I only do the maintenance dose once a week and eat a bunch of fruits & veggies. It works just the same and saves me money in the long run.

No, silly. You're thinking of OxiClean, which is the infomercial guy who purposly spills stuff to clean it up. Oxypowder is a colon cleanser. My son uses it and he's gotten me to try it. I've suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and its the one thing I've found that actually helps me, and is reasonably priced. He was interested in colon cleansing and found oxypowder through this website.

God bless you.

Colon Cleansing
Posted: 08-13-07 19:54pm

I can only say what is working for me and that is colonix by drnatura. I have been using colonix for 8 years now and have incorporated it each year thereafter.
It is a gentle herbal cleanse that is easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I have had great success with colonix and I have my family and friends who are using colonix with awesome results.
This is a product that I would recommend to anyone.

Would oxypowder cause dirrea effect? Coz I need to work from like 9 to 6 daily, would it cause gas and liquidy stools? Shocked

Also, would oxypowder dissolve and wash away the sodium chloride(enemas) which I've been using? Very
Happy

I know someone who did take oxypowder and had a serious diahorrea problem. I can't speak for myself as I've never used it. This is just what a close friend said happened to her. I would be very careful using it. Let us know how it worked for you should you try it.

Oxypowder
Posted: 10-09-07 14:00pm

I heard that colon cleansing can prevent bloating and had ordered 1 bottle of OxyPowder.

Does anyone know you have to continually use this product after the initial cleansing in order to prevent the bloatiness to re-occur or will the bloatiness disappear once your colon is completely clean. I am worried that I will need to continually use this product every other day just to prevent the bloating to re-occur.
