Kristine, If I don't use the colon cleanse than I don't go at all. Not all peoples bodys are the same. Apparently there is a problem. I drink water 24/7 and eat pleanty of fiber. That is the problem. My body is not use to this way of eating as yet. I think it is up to the person whose body it is. I have no choice until my body gets use to this much fiber. I believe you quote to be quite true. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Drink plenty of water and eat enough fiber. That's all your colon needs. It takes care of itself, but that does not work for everyone. I have followed the induction menu to the tee, but it is more fiber than I am use to. It is very painful, when your stomach fills up from the entire weekend and no relief is in sight. I tried Atkins way and it doesn't work. What alternative is there? Have a great day.
