Is my bf making a big deal about a colon cleanse?!

People have gotten along just fine without cleansing their colons for a very long time. If you eat right, you poop right, and you will be just fine. Tell him to shut up about it.

A colon cleanse is entirely unnecessary and pointless. Your body cleanses itself just fine. Folks selling colon cleanse stuff, or who have the business of performing colonics, will say that it's necessary, that otherwise all kinds of stuff gets stuck up there. But that's just not true. They tend to give examples like John Wayne or Elvis Presley. But those examples are about people with physical problems already. Healthy people can fully expect that everything they eat will come out within a few days, no problems.

From a natural medical point of view, colon cleanses once a year can be beneficial for clearing out your system of old unwanted waste that gets stuck to the lining of the colon. In saying that once you have done this cleanse be sure to take a course of probiotics to get the good bacteria back in your gut. Your BF shouldn't think it is disgusting. You are simply looking after your body. If he can't handle that then he is the one with issues not you.

no he has issues , the whole colon cleaning thing is a new wave fad , i have heard many a doctor say they are against it due to the bacteria (good) is needed to aid digestion and to clean it out u can cause issues down the line

i could be saying what i heard wrong but i dont think i am

He is just being odd. My boyfriend always uses prune juice to get the stuff flowing. I just think my body can handle it unless I'm having problems. The body is smart enough to handle most things alone.

I'd never even heard of such a thing...

Unless he plans on doing something to certain parts of you... I don't see why there would be a problem.
