ultimate cleanse April 26, 2010 I have purchased this product before from amazon.com and have always been satisfied with it and the service of the provider.
Essential to good health January 14, 2010 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have been taking this product on and off for about 8 years or more. I started out with the Nature's Secret 5-day fasting cleanse. Having never done a fasting cleanse before, I can tell you that the detox can make you feel ill with mild flu-like symptoms. After the five days I can also tell you that you feel like you can walk on water. It is truly amazing. The multi-herb and multi-fiber pills are all natural and over time have given me great health benefits. I am 58 years old and I take no other pills. I am very healthy and look like I am in my 40's. I attribute it to these pills, not drinking tap water, and eating fruits and vegetables daily. I never use caffeine in anything. The multi-fiber and multi-herb pills will always be a part of my health program. The problem with many of the reviews I have read here is that some people do not give it a chance, or their body a chance to rid the buildup of toxins we breath, eat, and absorb from our artificial environments. Of all products I have used, this product is by far the most beneficial. Thank you Nature's Secret.
Unreliable cleanse November 3, 2009 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The ingredients in the this product are really impressive with one major caveat. The chief ingredient in one of the daily tablets is Cascara Sagrada powder (bark), a laxative herb used most commonly in natural medicine to treat constipation. According to The Physician's Desk Reference for Herbal Medicine, stimulating laxatives such as this one are NOT recommended for use for more than 1-2 weeks. Definitely consult your doctor before going this route - not only is cascara sagrada an active ingredient but also you will be taking it morning and night for 30 days on this program. It may or may not work for some people, but for a good deal of people, there will be very unpleasant side effects that include diarrhea, loose stools, abdominal pain, and intense continual intestinal spasms.
You really have to be willing to pay the price to see if you're one of many who are intolerant to Cascara sagrada. If you are, as the package and leaflet state itself, you must stop use immediately. It is worthwhile to look at other comparable options that contain a different laxative herb with perhaps lesser side effects. Other herbal laxatives used to flush the colon and release waste include dandelion root, rhubarb root, butternut bark, flaxseed, red raspberry, senna, and barberry bark (not to be used during pregnancy).
Another thing to consider is that unfortunately the fiber for this cleanse comes in a tablet form, which many would argue is considerably less effective than in powder form. I got around this by adding more ground flaxseed and psyllium seed husks to my beverages.
This product is widely available at natural health food stores which is why we bought it and took the leap of faith. For my man, this product was tolerable and he kept with it for three weeks. He didn't have the negative side effects that I had which included strong continual (and audible) spasms in my abdominal area and really bad diarrhea all day long for every day I was on the cleanse. I love the idea of 'cleansing' so I gave it a good faith effort to see if the symptoms would subside. It meant being near the bathroom a lot, but I was hopeful to see things improve. On the ninth day, after re-reading that tiny disclaimer on the product package about Cascara sagrada, I stopped the program. It is VERY important to know that if you experience all-day diarrhea or loose stools at all with this product, STOP! It may seem counter-intuitive, as 'cleansing' is meant to remove a lot of retained debris in the colon, but it does much more harm than good.
I hope this helps someone out there who has either started the program and cannot explain the intestinal mayhem taking place, or someone who may be ready to jump and try the product. Conceptually it is an excellent detoxification program. Short of an ingredient alteration or two, I cannot wholeheartedly recommend this program. If you have guts of steel and are willing to pay to simply try it out, I wish you the best on your cleansing journey and I hope you are one of the lucky ones!
I MUST HAVE GOTTEN PLACEBOS OR SOMETHING June 8, 2009 This stuff is not working for me at all. I was hoping to get a good cleanse, and get regular in the process. But I'm on day 9 and I have less bowel movements now than I did before, and I've been drinking more than 64ozs of water a day. I'm sure I've totally cleansed my bladder, because I'm constantly going to do #1 because of all the water. But I'm really tired of feeling like I'm backed up. I didn't feel this way before I started taking these pills, so I don't know what the heck the problem is. I'm up to the maximum amount of pills it says to take (3 of each pill 2x a day), and still I may have a bowel movement every other day if I'm lucky. I don't eat red meat, pork, etc. I have limited my cheese intake, and NO fatty foods, like the pamphlet said, and still, I feel like I have wasted my time and my money when I could have been taking something that actually works! I'm very disappointed and definitely would NOT recommend this product. 6/11- It's now day 12 and I am constipated and off to get some Miralax. I wish this stuff would have worked for me. (DANG IT!)
I was contracting after one pill!!! June 2, 2009 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
OMG!!!! I bought this product because it was recommended by the salesman at the Vitamin Shop. I went home ate dinner at 6:30 and took one of each pill about 7:30. About 8:00 I reviewed the reviews online. The reviews stated there would be cramping. Cramping is an understatement (in my case at least)!!! At about 9:15 or so it started out with cramping and then to contracting. I was contracting for hours!!! I felt as though I was having my daughter all over again and she's 16. I quickly looked on the back of the box to see what was in it. I found that the pills contained Cascara sagrada which has a long history of traditional use by Native americans. Cascara sagrada contains compounds called anthroquinones, which are responsible for cascara's powerful laxative effects. Anthraquinones trigger contractions in the colon, called peristalsis, which causes the urge to have a bowel movement.
I didn't sleep well through out the night. The cramping calmed down through out the course of the night. I woke up at about 5:30am with very light cramping and am still having them now. They are tolerable at least at this point. My bowels are usually regular (right after I eat). However I haven't gone since my last meal and I hope to go soon. It's now 9am and still haven't passed my bowels.
Well what do you know! As I'm typing this review I went to the bathroom. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!! Bout time!
I can't give this product a bad review because I've only taken it for one day. I'm putting this information out there to make you aware of the side affect, to give you info on what causes the cramping/contracting and to give you a time based off of what I've experiences after one pill. I will try it again because I am so focused on trying to do this cleanse. What I would like to know if someone could answer this for me. How long did you have your cramping/contracting? Was it for a couple days, few days, week or longer? Thank you and Good Luck to all that are using this product including me.
Be Blessed! Enjoy your day!
