Cleansing supplements are used to remove toxins from the body in order to help your digestive system and liver function, and provide relief for medical problems such as allergies and asthma. However, the Mayo Clinic states that colon cleansing supplements are usually not necessary since the digestive system can get rid of toxins naturally. The Los Angeles Times quotes Dr. David Kastenberg, the co-director of nutrition and metabolic diseases at Thomas Jefferson University, as saying the ingredients in some cleansing supplements are potentially dangerous. Check with your doctor before use.
Colonix
Colonix is a cleansing supplement system that you use over a 90-day period to get toxins out of the body. Users mix a scoop of the Colonix fiber powder with a glass of water and consume it on a daily basis.

NuAge Colon Cleanse
Manufacturer's claims for this product include the ability to break down toxins, lose weight and increase energy.
