100% Natural Psyllium Husk
A soluble fiber, derived from the husks or coverings of the Psyllium seeds. It is an ancient and trusted soluble fiber that is very effective in moving waste smoothly and gently through the digestive tract. Psyllium Husk works by absorbing fluids within the colon to form a gel-like substance.  This added bulk allows for a thorough cleansing, letting waste exit the body smoothly and helping to maintain regularity.

Heart Health
Soluble fiber from foods such as Psyllium Husk, coupled with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.  One serving of Colon Cleanse supplies 4 grams of the 7 grams of soluble fiber from Psyllium Husk necessary per day to have this effect.
 
Weight Management
Take one tablespoon (7g) with at least 8 oz. of water OR 6 six capsules (4g) approximately half an hour before every meal.  Psyllium Husk promotes a feeling of fullness, which may help you to eat less at mealtime.  It also provides fiber that helps promote good bowel movements, which are essential for weight management.  For best results, combine Colon Cleanse whenever possible with a healthy lifestyle including sufficient exercise, a lot of water and a sensible balanced diet that suits your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your product capsules made from vegetable or animals?
The capsules for all Health Plus Products are bovine based. This means they come from cattle, calf and cows, unless otherwise stated on the bottle.

Can Colon Cleanse be taken if pregnant or breast feeding?
Psyllium should be mixed with at least 8 ounces of water, juice or your favorite beverage. Please drink quickly because of the immediate thickening action. Drinking eight to ten glasses of water throughout the day is recommended, because water naturally helps your system flush out the toxins and waste that build up throughout the day. Eating this product without enough liquid may cause choking. Do not take this product if you have trouble swallowing.

Can I take Colon Cleanse on a empty stomach?
Since Colon Cleanse is a soluble fiber, you may take it any time you wish even on an empty stomach.

Can I take medication with Colon Cleanse?
There are no known contradications. However, there is some speculation about pills possibly binding to the psyllium and preventing them from breaking down properly. It is a good idea to take your medication at least one hour before or after consuming Colon Cleanse. Check with your pharmacist or physician about possible interactions with psyllium.

Do I have to wait to eat if I just took Colon Cleanse?
No, you do not have to wait. Because Colon Cleanse is a soluble fiber and swells up in your stomach it has the effect of making you feel less hungry if taken about an hour before meals. So unless you are trying to eat less, take it after meals.

Do I take Colon Cleanse with food?
You may take the Colon Cleanse anytime you wish, even on an empty stomach. Their recommendation is that you take Colon Cleanse at least one hour before or after meals. Colon Cleanse works by forming a gel-like substance in your stomach, which absorbs all the waste in your system as it passes though your small intestine and colon, before finally being eliminated.

Does the soluble fiber from Colon Cleanse regulate cholesterol?
Cholesterol attaches itself to fiber and is carried out of the body with solid waste matter, so soluble fiber from foods such as Psyllium Husk, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.  A serving of Colon Cleanse® supplies 5 of the 7 grams of soluble fiber necessary per day to have this effect.

How does Colon Cleanse clean the colon?
Colon Cleanse is made of 100% psyllium husk. Psyllium helps to absorb toxins in the colon by creating a spongy, gelantinous mass in the bowels. By swelling and absorbing fluids, it breaks down and moves waste matter stuck in the folds and crevices of the colon. A clean colon inhibits bacteria from surviving on human waste. Psyllium husk soothes the lining of the bowel and leaves a thin slippery film along the inner lining of the colon, which makes it easier for waste generated later to move along smoothly.

How long will it take before Colon Cleans begins working?
It is very difficult to specify a time period in which Colon Cleanse begins working. Most people will see results within 24 to 72 hours, as long as directions are followed. It may take longer, especially for first time users, since their systems are not used to the amount of fiber that is in Colon Cleanse.

How much Colon Cleanse can be taken daily?
Depending on the individual, as little as one teaspoon a day can promote regularity. One tablespoon up to three times daily is the maximum dose. However, there may not be results for three or more days. Psyllium is an excellent source of fiber, puts no strain on nerve reflexes, does not damage bowel tone and is safe for long-term use.

Is the Psyllium in Colon Cleanse a fiber from wheat grain?
Psyllium is a fiber grain, but however it is not related to wheat. Psyllium is a natural bulking agent that yields 60 to 70 percent soluble fiber, eight times that of oat bran. Psyllium expands 50-60 times in the stomach to provide this bulk or "roughage."

Is there an appropriate diet for Colon Cleanse?
Common sense about eating healthy foods is always recommended. Please drink plenty of fluids, and continue your normal healthy diet.

What are the common side effects of Colon Cleanse?
Some of the side effects of Colon Cleanse are gas and bloating. These usually occur with first time users because their systems may not be used to the amount of fiber that is in Colon Cleanse. In this situation they recommend that you cut the dosage in half and slowly increase to the recommened dosage over a period of a few weeks.

What can else can I do if I don't want to take any colon cleanse product?
Drink plenty of water, and eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, which naturally contain fiber, antioxidants and some enzymes (such as papain from papaya). In addition, sometimes stress causes digestive insufficiency, so learning how to manage stress levels will greatly help prevent digestive disturbances. Eat slowly; don't cram your mouth with food, don't gulp down your food. Chewing slowly releases specific enzymes in saliva that start to break down the food. Finally, eat only until you are satisfied; don't eat until you are full, which stresses the bloated stomach to work overtime in processing its load.

What is the soluble fiber in Colon Cleanse?
soluble fiber called hemicellulose. The soluble fiber adds bulk to the stomach and absorbs fluids to form a gel-like substance that stimulates the rhythmic muscular contractions in the colon that are responsible for the evacuation process.

Why is fiber so important?
Fiber is essential for intestinal health for many reasons. It keeps the digestive tract from getting clogged up with mucus, toxins and metabolic waste; keeps the colon clean and waste matter moving; and feeds and maintains a healthy intestinal flora.

Will I get diarrhea from Colon Cleanse?
No, Colon Cleanse is not likely to result in diarrhea. In fact, psyllium husk is known to help in cases of diarrhea by absorbing excess intestional fluids and providing bulk to the stool.

About Health Plus

For over 30 years, Health Plus has been committed to developing and manufacturing the highest quality supplements available on the market to help our consumers lead a healthier lifestyle.

Their heritage for providing health products began when Pat and Rita Mediratta opened three health food stores in Southern California in 1980. Soon after opening the stores, they developed their first product, Colon Cleanse, in response to a need they recognized among their customers.

Originally produced in a back room in one of the stores using Psyllium Husk, a dietary fiber long known for its healing properties and traditional uses in India, Colon Cleanse was an instant success. In fact, Colon Cleanse was so successful; it helped create the colon cleansing category in the United States and still dominates the market today.

Over the years, Health Plus has remained committed to its roots by offering a full range of products that support digestive wellness. In addition, they have a broad selection of innovative formulas that support specific organs to promote the health of the entire body.
