Re: Plaque

[Guest guest]

I'm disinclined to believe that an otherwise healthy person

has 'plaque' in the colon but I certainly believe that the buildup

and retention of 'bacteria' and, in particular, the toxic and/or

undesired waste they produce is deserved of colon cleansing through

colonics and/or enemas. I'm not into orally taken flushing agents as

they give me side effects; I prefer the 'bottom up' cleansing. But

after a colonic and/or enema series I feel much much better for

days...it seems to make a big difference. So, I'm in total agreement

with Robin when it comes to the many benefits of colonics that she

mentions.
