I heard that the average person has anywhere from 5 to 15 pounds of fecal matter build up inside their colon! (YUCK) and that a colon cleansing can get rid of that. Is that true or just junk science?

Also, if a colon cleansing is worth the money, do you have to go to a doctor to get one done or can you buy something at a drug store or health food store and do it yourself?

Thanks for any help and / or advice.

I have heard that cleansing your colon could reduce many everyday ailments( headaches,fatigue, etc). My question is
can this be done only by those products(pills) that are on the market or can it be done through diet? Is there something that can be added to foods to help with removing all of the yuck?
