Colon Cleansing

Maybe I'm getting old or maybe I am just paying attention more these days, but either way it seems like there is a lot more talk now about our bodies and or health. Having rarely ever worried about my health maybe I'm just starting to because I am getting old, I'll be 59 next month.
One of the many things I've been seeing and hearing about is colon cleansing. Colon cleansing (colon therapy) encompasses a number of alternative medical therapies intended to remove fecal waste and unidentified toxins from the colon and intestinal tract. I never realized this was so important but I guess a lot of people do and they spend a lot of money on products that will colon cleanse.
There appears to be so many cleansing products out there all vying for your money. But, which one is the best? And, how can you pick the right one? There are four factors one should consider, and they are:
1. Effectiveness & Safety
We know colon cleansers. We know which ingredients are work, which ones are safe, etc. We also know the sneaky tricks used by all too many companies. For example, some companies like to "Dress the Label." This means they list high quality, effective ingredients, but use such miniscule amounts that there is little to no benefit to the cleansing program.
2. Company & Guarantee
Don't buy a colon cleanser without a money back guarantee. Only products that work come with money back guarantees. However, deceptive marketers are getting sneakier. Many companies will advertise a money back guarantee, but when you look at the small print, it's only good for 15 days from the date of purchase. When you take transit time into consideration, that leaves you no time to try the product. Since we purchased each cleanser, we were able to put companies' guarantees to the test. We'll let you know which ones live up to their promises.
3. Consumer Feedback
This is the ultimate test. A company can have beautiful packaging, an excellent web site, low prices, fast shipping and 5 star customer service, but if customers don't like the product, the business is in trouble. Our editors have scoured the Internet for customer reviews. In January of 2009, we added a consumer review forum for each product.
4. Value
How much "bang for your buck" are you getting? There are colon cleansers that work, but are WAY over priced. Why pay 2, 3 or 4 times as much for a product when there are cheaper--and even better-- alternatives available? We've looked heavily into this issue and assigned value rating for each product.
This makes sense to me. Choosing any product that goes into your body is an important decision, as some "great item of the moment" may either do you no good or may harm your body. There's no harm in investigating things that can affect your health and well being.
So, if you are one of those people concerned with things like colon cleansing for a healthier you I urge you to do some research before you ingest anything.
