“How can I properly do a colon cleanse?”
I've noticed that a lot of people are doing colon cleanses, and I want to try it. What's the best way to cleanse my colon?

It is not necessary to "cleanse" the colon in a healthy person with normal bowel habits. It is not medically justified and has no known medical benefits. If you have regular bowel movements then there is nothing to "cleanse". If you have constipation then increase fiber and fruits, use laxatives etc.
The safest way is to use a bowel prep with 24 hours of a clear liquid diet, as directed by a Gastroenterologist. Talk to your doctor and do NOT use any other cleansers please! Those are known to be toxic!
