Hi all,

I thought I'd document my experience with Colonix here in case it helps anyone.  I started yesterday with the 2 paranil capsules in the morning and the fiber mixed with some soymilk and followed with the glass of water as directed.  I did not need to use the restroom until around lunchtime.  What came out was pretty average looking but it was solid which for me is an improvement.  I'm used to chronic diarrhea (I've noticed sticking with soymilk and avoiding gluten can help with the diarrhea but I'm not perfect about sticking to those food substitutes).  Anyway, the nicest part was that after I went I felt very empty afterwards.  I've never had that sensation before.  In the evening I did the 2 toxinout capsules and 2 detoxigreen (I'm doing Toxinout as well) before and with my dinner respectively and then enjoyed the tea afterwards. 

As for flavor - The tea smells stronger in the bag than it does after you've steeped it.  It put me off at first but once you steep it it tastes and smells like a simple green/herbal tea blend.  It's pleasant and relaxing.  I should also mention that the fiber tastes fine.  I mixed it chocolate soymilk the first day and that was very good. I used plain soymilk the next day and that was fine too.  Mild banana flavor just like they say.

Today same routine with the pills, fiber and tea.  I did not have to go until lunch time again.  I wasn't really expecting to see anything being that most people don't until the first week or so is up, however there were some long, thin, flat white-ish colored strips mixed in today.  I told my boyfriend (thankfully we have a very open relationship - no secrets here, no matter how gross!) and he suspected they were parasites.  We were discussing the program so far and suddenly I had to use the bathroom again!  I don't know if it was the power of suggestion or what but I had to go pretty badly.  This experience the stool was very very loose, but it did not burn like my normal diarrhea.  It was also very very dark colored.  I wanted to look at it more closely but my gag relex was starting to take over so I flushed quick.  The smell was awful.  I did feel better after going though.

After I finished I was curious to see the photos on dr natura's website again, so I looked them up.  I kept exclaiming how gross it all was and blah blah blah... the next thing I knew my boyfriend had looked up on his computer what a tape worm looked like.  I immediately thought I was gonna throw up -- it looked A LOT like what had come out of me at lunch time today.  I was horrified.  Glad to be rid of it, but definitely horrified.  Boyfriend says, "Is that what it looked like?"  And I said, "Uh, yeah... it was flat like that, with sharp edges sort of."  He says, "well that makes sense.  this is a fish tape worm... you get it from eating raw fish!"  Ya'll have to understand, I LOVE sushi.  I eat it all the time.  So here is this worm you get from eating raw fish, salmon in particular.  Guess what type of sushi is  my favorite?!?  You betcha.  Salmon.

So anyway, that's the story to date.  Sorry this got so long.  Feel free to email me if you have questions.

Take care,
Sandra
