Review of Colopril - a Herbal Colon Cleanser

Article Extract : www.colonzone.org

Colopril is a herbal supplement that claims to be another comprehensive colon cleaner. It is promoted to clean and detoxify the colon, lungs, kidney and heart. A healthy colon can create better health. When there are excess toxins in the body, it suffers and leads to ailments like obesity, bad skin and hair, foul smelling breath and many others.

When the colon is eliminated of these toxins weight loss is a benefit, until the colon is filled with more waste. Colopril claims to be an all-natural colon cleanser that reduces weight, helps to improve skin by making it smoother and clearer, helps increase energy, promotes a healthy immune system and helps the body absorb vitamins and minerals from food better.

It also claims that it’s specially formulated to help remove parasites and heavy metals from the body and to prevent further build-up through the dietary fiber that is included in the system.

To understand Colopril, the ingredients must be looked at. The two main ingredients are cascara sagrada and psyllium.

Cascara Sangrada has compounds called anthroquinones, which give cascara its powerful laxative effects. Anthroquinones help to trigger contractions in the colon and this causes the urge to have a bowel movement. It is the most common herbal laxative. It is also known to improve the muscle tone of the colon wall.

Psyllium husks are used to help relieve constipation, irritable bowel syndrome and diarrhea.

They are also used to help improve and maintain regular GI transit and can be used as a regular dietary supplement. Psyllium husks may help to lower cholesterol and help to control diabetes.

These two ingredients are powerful laxatives and will help the body to remove waste, but this alone can not help thoroughly cleanse the body and give the extra benefits that Colopril claims that their supplement gives. Elimination is only one part of the detox process. Many supplement programs provide probiotics that help to restore the balance of the intestinal flora, which help aid in balancing digestion. However, Colopril does not.

This product also claims to be a weight loss supplement and some users have had some temporary positive results, but upon long term use they gained the weight back. Colopril has no diet recommendations, so the weight loss many people experience is due to extra elimination of waste. The user should change any poor lifestyle choices and maintain a proper diet and exercise program with any supplement.

A clean digestive tract can metabolize food much more efficiently if the body is not constantly being bogged down with toxins from processed foods, sugar and fats. When doing any kind of detox program eating vegetables, fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grains and drinking plenty of water is recommended. Since Colopril has no diet recommendations many people continue their diet and see no results.

One major complaint that people have with Colopril is that it has no product guarantee or trial period offered. Users have tried the product, have not been happy with the results and could not return the product for a full or even a partial refund.

Maybe because it is a herbal cleanser with no other side effects, people are willing to give it a try. Some people benefit from it, some don't.
