Oxygen-based colon-cleansing products are popular because they are simple to use; just take some capsules once or twice daily for three to seven days and say goodbye to toxins and constipation. Popular oxygen-based cleansing products include OxyPowder Colon Cleanse and OXY-MEGA. Most are considered gentle and natural, but how do you know they're working?

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Your colon cleanser of choice
  • Seven days to devote to cleansing
  • Lots of water
  1. Step 1

    Read the directions of your product to determine how many capsules you should take, how often and with what (like food and water).

  2. Step 2

    Expect to experience loose stools and excess of gas. The most obvious clue that your cleanser is working is an increase in bowel movements, ideally three to five a day.

  3. Step 3

    Expect other benefits that can be attributed to a colon cleanse, including increased energy levels, improvements in your mood, better looking skin and improved body odor.

  4. Step 4

    Expect some other less pleasant effects from a colon cleanse such as headaches, mild stomach cramps and joint pain. Consult your physician if you experience any unpleasant side effects.

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure to drink plenty of water while cleansing as it will aid in the process. Drink at least 10 ounces for every 10 pounds of your body weight; so if you weigh 100 pounds then drink 100 ounces of water.
