If you think your colon is clean, you better read this issue a few times. It could change your mind.
      Most people don't want to discuss their colon. It's too gross, too revolting. They are obsessed with cleaning the outside of their body. The inside, they rarely think about.
      As you will soon learn, the average barnyard cow has a healthier colon than most people. Why? Because people eat garbage food which eventually turns into tough, black layers of decaying matter which line the colon wall. This prevents nutrients from being absorbed. Little gets through. You may as well flush your favorite herbs and vitamins down the toilet.
      I thought everything had already been said about the colon. Little did I know that some of the best information, as usual, has never been told. In this issue, learn these facts and more:

• Why some natural herbal laxatives are just as useless as drug store brands.
• Which natural product for the colon can scrape your insides like sandpaper and turn to a concrete-like mass. One reader swears it killed his brother.
• Why cleansing the colon properly can cause brown and gray eyes to turn to a beautiful shade of blue. Dark eyes spots often vanish.
• Why people who go only ‘once a day,’ or once every 3 days, are begging for trouble. Women have it the worst!
• Which product can cleanse the colon so well that skin can turn a healthy pink, bad breath will turn sweet, and ugly, protruding bellies will disappear.

In this issue, I interviewed two people: a 73-year-old colon expert and master herbalist for the underlying philosophy, and a lay person for some of the specifics. Their approaches are totally different.
      The layman's name is Clarence Eli from northern Florida. Mr. Eli is not a colon expert, he is not even an herbalist. He is just a reader who has helped many people after everything else failed. Mr. Eli says, “What's the use of starting a healing program when the colon is like a toxic garbage dump, poisoning every cell in your body? You're making the job ten times harder.”
      Mr. Eli has become a minor expert in using a colon product he calls the
Turkey Rhubarb Formula. He claims ‘it's healthier than a colonic, far cheaper, and without the trouble.’ We'll let you decide.

QUESTION: Are you exaggerating when you claim the colon can get clogged like a rotting sewer line?
ELI: I can only relate what happened to me. After I started on the colon formula, the stench that came out in the bathroom was just overwhelming. Then about five weeks later, the stuff that came out turned really black.
      Once, I felt something strange come out. I looked in the toilet and said to myself, “What the heck is this?” It was 3 inches long and looked rubber-hard, like a tube--almost like plywood. I didn't stay in the bathroom too long because the smell was making me sick. I had to get out.

QUESTION: Whatever it was, how long would you say it was in you?
ELI: It could have been in there 5-10 years. I don't know. Maybe longer. All I know is that it didn't belong there and would have stayed a lot longer if I didn't clean my colon. I couldn't see it coming out on its own.
      In the next 3-4 days, even more of this black crud came out. Then the stools went from a dark black to a dark brown. Then five months later, the stools were black again. Eventually, the bowels returned to normal.

QUESTION: Where did all this black stuff come from?
ELI: Years of bad eating. For most of my life, it was hamburgers, hamburgers and more hamburgers, plus beer and alcohol. All this bad food was staying in me way too long. It was starting to be part of the colon.
      It is like the pipes in your home. Corrosion starts to build up and soon the inside is only half the size of normal. The sides of the colon wall can become so hard the peristaltic muscle cannot work. This is an important fact because that muscle helps move that matter out of a person's system. That's why most people have to strain when they TRY to have a bowel movement. The peristaltic muscle is just not able to do its work properly. Straining!! You know what I mean. Sometimes you strain so hard you get really light-headed. And that straining can really cause some damage inside the rest of the body.
      Even the sphincter muscle at the end of the colon can become weak and not open properly. This is one reason people get hemorrhoids. There is so much pressure used to get the matter out that the vessels become weak and start to bleed. Hence, hemorrhoids.
      After I got all that crud out of me, and my colon walls were cleaned up, I discovered that I didn't want or have to eat nearly as much. Normally I would eat half an hour after meals because I got hungry again. Now I can go 4-5 hours after a meal; I don't get that craving for snacks anymore.

QUESTION: For how many years of your life did you get hungry after meals?
ELI: About 25 years. Finally an herbalist told me the reason. When the colon is all clogged up like a dirty car filter, your body can only extract 5-10% of the nutrients when you eat. So half an hour later the body says, “I didn't get enough food. Give me some more.” So you eat. You're never full. You keep eating and eating.
      After I cleansed my colon, I lost about 13 pounds. Not all of this weight loss came from my colon, but when your colon is clean, everything works more efficiently, including your digestion. A lot of overweight people don't have a fat problem, they have a colon problem.
      They can have layers of black, dehydrated, decaying matter in their colon that they can never lose by dieting-or exercise. This black crud clings tightly to the colon wall and doesn't come loose. There can be hundreds of layers. This can add a lot of extra weight to the body.

QUESTION: Maybe you were the exception. Has anyone else lost weight on the formula besides yourself?
ELI: Weight loss is one of the most frequent comments I hear. I recently talked to a 72-year-old woman from Opwa named Ruby. She lost 35 pounds by taking this same formula. She weighed 170 pounds. Now she weighs 135. She told me she made absolutely no change in her diet.
      Another woman in Kilgore, Texas said her bloated feeling left. She said, “I feel about 10 pounds lighter.” Like me, she found she could digest her food better. Her husband had the same results. She was surprised her colitis improved, and she didn't even know it was good for that condition.

QUESTION: Most medical doctors would laugh at the idea that toxins from the colon can poison the body. How would you answer that?
ELI: With most people, their colon is chuck full with meals that have fermented in the colon for two or three days. And with some people, that food has been literally packed in there for weeks. As this food becomes packed tighter and tighter together it becomes rotten and full of poisons and toxins.
      Now the body extracts or squeezes the liquid from the mushy food found in the large intestines. As the blood absorbs these nutrients, it circulates and feeds the entire body. The body is then supposed to flush out the waste left in the large intestines. That's called a bowel movement. Now, if you are not having these bowel movements after each meal you run into trouble.

QUESTION: Can you explain that a little more?
ELI: This extraction cycle will continue as long as there is something found in the large intestines. It has no way of knowing if what it is extracting is good “food” for the body or if it's toxins and poisons not good for the body. And remember, the large intestines are humid and moist. Therefore, it is an excellent place for the food to rot, ferment, spoil, go bad, whatever you want to call it, and it happens in a very short amount of time. Also, while this is going on the by-product is the production of gas. We've all smelled that. That rotten smell that sometimes or always comes out of us. Well, that's from the rotten food still inside the colon. So remember, the longer the material stays in the colon, the more toxins and poisons are produced. And they are extracted and passed on to the entire body.
      After years and years of this cycle, parts of the wall of the colon become “plugged up” with a black layer of gunk. That prevents the body from extracting anything from those areas. So the food has to travel farther and farther down the colon until it finds a place that is not plugged up. Slowly it moves down the colon pushing OLD material in front of it. But by the time it gets to an area that is not “plugged up” it has fermented and the only thing that will be extracted is a toxin or poison liquid. That's what you are feeding the body.

QUESTION: What about the kidney and the liver?
ELI: Part of the kidney and the liver's job is to filter out these impurities from the blood stream. However, we are by now overtaxing them. So being overworked they tend to slow down on their job while the colon continues to excel at producing more and more toxins and poisons.

QUESTION: Where to these toxins and poisons go to?
ELI: Well, as the blood circulates and “feeds” the body, it's feeding it these poisons and toxins. They are getting some nutrition but not much really. Now if the immune system is strong, most parts of the body are able to defend themselves against this assault for a time. But the weak areas of the body are unable to. So the toxins and poisons settle into those areas and a buildup starts. That is the start of hundreds of different problems for different people. After so long of this poisoning, these areas finally collapse. This could be in the joints where arthritis forms, or a weak area of the skin is found and lo-and-behold a boil forms. Or the head: headaches are the result of the toxins attaching themselves to the nerve endings.
      That is why so many people have this run-down feeling. Their body is extracting the poison and toxins from the colon and feeding them to the entire body. That is also why people say they just feel bad all over. All over is right. And it all comes from the colon, because people are only having one or two bowel movements a day.
      It still comes back to the same thing. If the body could flush the waste out of the colon in the first place, none of these problems would be faced by the person.
      This is why Dr. Christopher always said that if you treat the CAUSE of say a boil, you will not have it come back. The body, in the case of a boil, finds a weak spot in the skin. It deposits the toxins and poisons there and a boil forms. By lancing the boil you get rid of that poison but you have not addressed the problem of what caused the boil, nor have you prevented another boil from coming out someplace else on the body.

QUESTION: Is this just for simple constipation, or serious bowel problems as well?
ELI: It seems to be good for all colon problems. A reader from Southern California named Donna was in horrible shape. She could only go once every 2-3 days. Then she got worse and could go only once a week, and then once every ten days. She had gone to the hospital three times. Her colon had severe nerve damage. Nothing could pass those damaged nerve spots in her colon. She was living in the bathroom on 5-6 enemas a day.
      She also suffered from peritonitis. This is a gangrenous infection caused by stagnation of the bowel. Everything just rots in the colon and it can kill you.
      She told me on the phone, “The last time I went to the hospital, my bowel was two-thirds plugged up. It was packed solid. It took them four days to unplug me. They tried everything but dynamite.”
      As a last resort, they brought in what the nurse called, “the silver bullet”. This was the top of the line. It was some kind of potent suppository. They said I would go within one hour. I went two days later.
      “I tried every laxative on the market. Even Ex-lax didn't help. I often took a quart of prune juice a day, and I still couldn't go. Once I tried a cough syrup because it would make my bowel a little loose. I spent almost $3,000 trying to fix the problem. Nothing worked. I went to the UCLA medical center but I was just an experimental guinea pig.”

Note: The story above was confirmed. This woman also used the Black Dogwood Blood Cleanser, which also helps to cleanse the colon. She claims purifying her colon caused her hair to go from dark brown to blonde. She also said her blue eyes became darker.

QUESTION: What did she do?
ELI: The next step for Donna was a colostomy. That was the only option left. They would have to cut out her whole colon and she would wear a bag the rest of her life.
      A friend told her about the formula. She started with six capsules a day. Within one day, she had her first movement. She couldn't go the entire previous week. This was the only thing that worked. Soon she was going several times a day.
      Now she is totally cured. She stopped the enemas immediately. She told me, “To me, this has been an absolute lifesaver. When you find something like this, you just thank God for it.”

"I lost 20 pounds by cleansing my colon." Mary C. – 68-year-old woman from Chattanooga, Tenn. "I took the Turkey-Rhubarb Formula for about 5 months and lost 20 pounds. Now finally my stomach is flat! I used to wear a size 14. Now I wear a size 9-11. I had to buy everything new. My light blue eyes turned a deeper shade of blue. Before, the whites of my eyes were yellowish. Now they are a pure white." (This woman also took a Blood Cleanser, but claims the weight loss came mostly from the colon formula.)

QUESTION: Is it unusual for a person to be dependent on enemas to get a movement?
ELI: You would be surprised how many need enemas to survive. I know one 74-year-old man in Nebraska who couldn't have any movements at all without taking enemas. He had a serious bowel condition since he was 19. None of the doctors or medications could help.
      For fifty years–that's half a century–he had to take daily enemas to relieve himself. I know it's hard to believe, but it's true. Within one week of using the formula, he was able to stop the enemas. If that isn't proof, I don't know what is.

QUESTION: What is a spastic colon?
ELI: This is a colon that doesn't operate normally. Most of the time you get diarrhea and the rest of the time it is just plugged up. A woman in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, had this problem for at least six years. She was under tremendous stress and had a lot of pain on the lower right side of her colon. She could hardly walk.
      The doctor gave her a muscle relaxant called Dicylomine. He had her on 10 mg., but the problem got even worse. She went to another doctor and he increased it to 20 mg. but she couldn't take the drug because one of the side effects was constipation. She became even more miserable.
      At this point she discovered the colon formula and got relief after only a week or two. Now her pain is totally gone. She told me, “Nothing else ever helped me like this stuff. It's been a Godsend.”

QUESTION: Are most people constipated?
SETERS: Most people are, but they don't see it that way. Men will say, “No, I'm not constipated, I have one bowel movement a day.” Women will say, “I'm not constipated, I have a bowel movement every other day.” But these are false interpretations of constipation. If you don't have a bowel movement after every meal, you're constipated. This means a good 90% or more of the people are constipated.

QUESTION: How many bowel movements a day should a normal person have?
SETERS: If you have three meals a day, you need three bowel movements a day. If you don't, something's very wrong. Many people go once a day. This means every day they miss two movements. In one week's time, you miss fourteen movements.

QUESTION: I heard of a young minister out East who said he had a bowel movement once every 3-4 days. Do you hear many cases like that?
SETERS: All the time. This is one thing I have really noticed. You go to a doctor and two of the most important things he doesn't ask you are: “What do you eat?” and “How many times do you go to the bathroom?” How can you possibly feel good if you are carrying a whole belly-full of stinking, toxic garbage?
      I had a woman patient tell the doctor, “I am only having a bowel movement every 4-5 days.” He responded, “This is your natural rhythm.” What an answer! Let's say you go every four days. That means twelve meals are being stored up, rotting and sticking in the gut until you get rid of it.

QUESTION: What's the longest you ever heard of a person not going to the bathroom?
SETERS: I have known women who went to the bathroom only once a week. One went to the doctor and complained. The doctor gave the same type of answer, “There's nothing wrong. That's your normal rhythm.” I even knew a woman who went only once every ten days. She was in horrible shape. The longer the food stays in you, the worse you get. You become a walking septic tank. If you're constipated, you deserve to be sick.
      A horse, when it gets constipated, will usually die. I saw this horse once who was just laying down and preparing to die. The vet came and just reached up the horse's colon and cleaned it out with his gloved hands. He pulled out all that garbage. Then he put some water in there and washed it out. The horse then stood up and lived. But I've seen horses die when their colon was not cleaned out.
      Constipation won't kill you directly, but it starts wearing the body down and all your organs become susceptible to decay. Then you become sick.

QUESTION: Why does constipation make you sick? Can you explain that more?
SETERS: When your food goes through the large intestine, the moisture should be pulled out of the food. Your body is trying to re-use the liquid. But a lot of times it can't because there are still chunks in the food, so it starts to rot.
      To make matters worse, all the rotting fluids are pulled back in the body. When it goes to your heart, you say, “I don't have enough energy.” When it goes to your brain, you say, “I can't think very well today.” When it goes to your liver, you say, “I can't get the poisons out of my food.” And this is all caused by the stinking liquid that comes out of the rotting fecal matter. Unless we get rid of this, we become a cesspool and we start smelling like a cesspool.

QUESTION: If you were healthy, would there be a lot of stench in the bathroom?
SETERS: If you are a healthy person and are having three healthy movements a day, you should not be able to smell your gas. I could sit here and pass gas and you wouldn't even know it. That's how I can tell if I don't feel well. When the stools stink, I know I'm sick. The horrible smell comes from undigested food.
      When you feel gas rumbling in your stomach, you know your food is fermenting. It isn't digesting, it's fermenting. This is not good. They are complete opposites. There should be a little fermenting but not much.

QUESTION: Why do people get so much smelly gas?
SETERS: It's often caused because they don't chew their food. Even healthy foods, like raw watermelons, can cause gas if you gulp them without chewing. That's why we were given our back teeth--to mash the food and chew it. The old-timers said, “Take twenty bites on each mouthful.” When you don't chew your food properly, there is nothing to break it down so it goes to the colon and ferments.

– A True Story – “The Mayo Clinic wanted to cut out my colon!” –Shirley from Apple Valley, California. A 57-year-old woman with an incurable bowel problem.       “For eight months, I could only have a bowel movement with an enema. I couldn't sleep at night. It started years ago as diarrhea and turned into constipation. The doctors wanted to have a bowel sample, but I couldn't give them one. I just couldn't go! They diagnosed it as irritable bowel syndrome. One time they said it was colitis.       “I had lost 20 pounds from the enemas. I couldn't eat, I was afraid to. The Mayo Clinic wanted to take out the entire colon. They said I would have to wear a bag the rest of my life. I said, ‘What!?’ The doctor said, 'That's what we do here.' Another doctor said I would have to learn to ‘potty train’ myself and THINK about going. I said, ‘I'm not a child.’ He was so rude my husband was ready to shoot him. “I saw nine doctors and spent over $10,000--with no answer in sight.”       “UCLA wanted to put me on an experimental drug program for two years. I also went to Loma Linda University and other gastrointestinal doctors. I was so sick I wouldn't even go through the tests. One doctor gave me shots, and 3-4 prescriptions. They would say, ‘Take this one for a week. If that doesn't work, get the other one filled.’ Nothing worked. I even went to the emergency room a few times. They tried oil enemas on me and they wouldn't work. They sent me back home.       “This went on for eight months. I don't know how I survived. In total, I saw nine different doctors and spent over $10,000 with no answers in sight. I was days away from having the operation to remove my colon. I didn't know what else to do.       “At the last moment, a friend told me about the Turkey-Rhubarb Formula. I ordered some. After that first night, I went a tiny bit on my own. Everyday I went a little easier. I took up to 13 capsules a day. I did this for about a year. Now I am down to 4 a day. I have not taken an enema since I started the formula. I got instant relief. I couldn't ask for a greater miracle. I have gotten so many people to try this.”

QUESTION: What does it mean when people strain when they go to the toilet?
SETERS: Their stools are dry and they are constipated. Dry stools are synonymous with constipation. This means the fermenting fluids were squeezed out of the food and went back into the body.
      Some people have such dry stools they have to stay in the bathroom 20-30 minutes or longer. They have reading rooms in the bathroom, full of dozens of magazines. I used to go maybe four times a day, and I would stay in there less than one minute each time. That's the way it should be. Your stools should be moist and dark brown. If they are light, this means your liver is not working. You should always look at your stools.

QUESTION: Does foul breath come from the colon?
SETERS: It often does. You can scrub your mouth with mouthwash all day long and it usually won't help. Think about it. You are circulating all this dirty, filthy fluid from the colon throughout the body. Is this going to make a sweet-smelling mouth? I doubt it. Your whole body will smell.

QUESTION: How long can food accumulate in the colon?
SETERS: Years and years. I speculate that the black lining or casing on the colon wall can remain there 4-5 years or longer. If you don't do anything about it, it will just stay there until you die. This black lining prevents the colon from breathing! Water cannot go in or out. This black casing can accumulate and get thicker. This is when you really get sick. I have never had this black casing come out of me but I have known people who have. I have talked to students who told me that on autopsies, they will cut the colon wall and find a black layer 1-2 inches thick. Sometimes they have found the colon to be 4-5 inches wide. So you know there must be a lot of crud in there.

QUESTION: What are some of your classic cases?
SETERS: A 40-year-old nurse had a hysterectomy, after which all of her functions went crazy. She became so constipated that she could hardly go to the bathroom at all-just once every 2-3 days.
      She was in such bad shape she had to take a laxative that caused a lot of painful griping, just to get some relief. She suffered like this for six months. Eventually, she was led to the colon formula by a friend. After a few capsules, she said “This was an answer to a prayer. I had no straining, no burning, it was just like it was supposed to be.” Within a week, everything was back to normal.
      I had another case, a 50-year-old school teacher, who lives down the street. She said as a school teacher it was really tough to try anything because she couldn't run to the bathroom in the middle of class. So she remained constipated. On Fridays, she would have to take these harsh laxatives to try to get everything out. By Monday she had to stop and remain constipated for five more days. Then Friday, she would take this strong laxative and POW! The situation was so terrible she was thinking of quitting school. One day I met her at church and she told me about her problem. I gave her a bottle of the formula. I said to take one the first night, two the next night and three the next night, so it wouldn't cause any griping. The next time I saw her, she said, “This is the most wonderful stuff I have ever tried. What a blessing. I can go every day.”

“After only six weeks, my bleeding hemorrhoids vanished.” --70-year-old man from Chelmsford, Mississippi.       “I had bleeding, itching, stinging hemorrhoids for 5 years. After taking Turkey-Rhubarb for six weeks, this was the first of my problems to go. I also had colitis so bad, even eating a small salad would cause running. I started with 6 capsules a day. Then I cut back to only one a day. Once, I had 8 bowel movements in one day--and they were really big. I guess everything broke loose. Stuff came out as black as coal. Now I have no more colitis. I'm completely cured.”

QUESTION: A reader from Baltimore told me that his chronic headaches left after he took the formula. Have you heard comments like that yourself, or was this an exception?
SETERS: I have heard similar stories. Many years ago, before I was an herbalist, my niece was over to my home. She told me suddenly she had to go home. She said she had a bad headache. I told her we had aspirin here and there was no reason to leave. She told me she had to go and take a laxative to clean out.
      I said, “What!” She told me she always cleaned out her bowel whenever she got a headache. I never heard this before and told her she was weird! But sure enough, she went home, took the colon formula and an enema, and came back with no headache and was all smiles. And that's where I learned about this connection. Nothing will cause a headache as bad, or as quick, as a toxic bowel.

QUESTION: Can you define diverticulitis for us? I know a lot of people suffer from this.
SETERS: This is a pocket on the outside of the colon wall. It's like a weak balloon and it gets full of toxins, worms and parasites. These are also called polyps. The Cascara in the formula helps because it gets the colon muscle to start contracting. This helps to remove the layers over the pockets and helps to break them up.

QUESTION: One reader said she suffered from diverticulitis and took the formula for 3-4 days. Then she got a throbbing pain on her left side and stopped. What happened?
SETERS: The colon was trying to evacuate and it couldn't. This is what caused the pain. The garbage was trying to come out. She should just drink a lot of water and keep taking the formula. The pain will soon leave and the condition will eventually clear right up.

QUESTION: Explain what colitis is.
SETERS: The best way I can explain it is that Colitis is basically inflammation of the colon. The bowel is trying to remove an irritation, usually pockets or polyps, by flushing it out with water. This condition of diarrhea can go on for years. The colon says, “Get this out of here. Get this out!” This formula is one of the best things in the world because it is mild, soothing and cleansing.

QUESTION: A close friend in San Diego has gastritis. What is this problem and can the formula help?
SETERS: Gastritis is chronic gas in your stomach caused from a lack of digestive juices. Your food doesn't digest properly and it ferments. This causes the gas. The formula helps because it cleans out the bowel. A lot of the fermentation and gas comes from the colon. “Most people are walking septic tanks.”

QUESTION: What about Crohn's disease?
SETERS: An inflammation of the small intestine, just before it gets to the large intestine. The small intestine doesn't get clogged up as much as the large intestine, since the large intestine is the main receptacle. But if the large intestine backs up, the small intestine can get inflamed because of rotting food, so of course the formula would help.

–A Reader's Own Words– “I had terrible headaches for over 10 years. They vanished in 2 days--and never returned.” –Walter J, from Seattle, 57-year-old Pathology Technician.       “I work in a pathology lab in a large hospital. This is the most toxic place on earth. The place is loaded with harmful chemicals--very toxic, and very dangerous! Two workers already died of cancer this year. Everyone is dying. It is so bad, no one can smell anymore. The chemicals destroyed their sense of smell, and they don't even know it.       “I had terrible headaches almost every day in the lab for over ten years. As soon as I walked in, the headaches would start. They would leave when I left. But only two days after I started the Turkey-Rhubarb Formula, the headaches vanished. The formula literally dissolves the chemicals and odors out of my body. I never get headaches in the lab anymore. “My hair now grows like it did 20 years ago.”       “After 6 months, my hair started growing fast. My hair was always short and very hard. Now it is very soft and shiny--like a baby. My hair is now so long, people beg me to get a haircut. This is something I have never experienced in my life.       “I started on six capsules a day but this didn't work. I increased this to 16 capsules a day with 8 glasses of water. I now go to the bathroom four times a day. Before, I only went two times a day. When I first started taking it, I had a sharp pain in my colon. I almost stopped. But this was just a sign that my colon was in bad shape. Then mucus started pouring out of me and the pain stopped. “I'm like a new-born baby.”       “After 3-4 months on the formula, I lost 15 pounds from all the junk that came out of me. I feel more alert and sharper. I can do spinning aerobic exercises and never get dizzy. Plus my skin is smoother. It's pink like a little child. I found the formula takes all the pollution from the air, food and water out of your body.       “Because the formula made me feel so well, I cancelled my insurance. I don't need it. Insurance gives you death. This formula gives me LIFE. I have been taking it for three years. I have been studying nutrition for 14 years and never came across anything like this. With this, you see instant action.       “My eyes used to be very red around the pupils. Now they are white and clear. I noticed a 50% improvement in vision. The colon is truly the seat of all disease.”

QUESTION: I know this sounds like pure quackery, but two readers said their hair started to grow faster after taking the formula. Is that possible.
SETERS: I have heard a number of stories like that. When the body is poisoned, things are in a shutting-down mode. When poisons are circulating through the body nothing is going to reproduce like it should, including the hair. It's all because of holding too much fecal matter in your bowel. When you get that out of there, it's like, “Hey, I've been let out of jail. I can start doing things again.” That explains the new hair growth. I've had 50-year-old guys say they feel like they are 20 again.

QUESTION: One reader took the formula and said she passed ‘a four inch movement covered with skin.’ What was this? A tumor?
SETERS: That skin looks like a plastic lining. This can come from years of eating bread, which decays in the colon. Do you know what wallpaper paste is made of? It's basically flour and water. Eating bread can often form layer after layer of paste in the colon. This is what the woman was passing. It actually looks like a layer of skin. Anything that forms a lot of mucus in the colon can cause the same thing.

QUESTION: Any connection between a coated tongue and the colon?
SETERS: Absolutely. When you cleanse properly, your tongue will turn a nice pink, and the skin can also turn pinker. I have seen that thick white coating disappear. The formula pulls those toxins right out. The formula stimulates the peristaltic muscles in the veins and arteries as well as the colon.

QUESTION: A woman claims her stomach felt much softer and flatter after cleaning her colon.
SETERS: I can understand that. Often the bowel gets to be a hard encrustation, like having a great big rubber pipe in your belly. The bowel can sometimes get about 5 inches in diameter and become very hard. One of my students had a belly that always stuck out.
      I said, “Why don't you get rid of that belly?” She said, “I've tried. I've exercised, I've dieted, I've tried everything. I guess I'm going to take it to my grave.” I told her she didn't need to. She cleansed her bowel, took the formula, and it worked. Now her belly is flat. I've seen that happen to 2-3 people.

QUESTION: What dosage do you recommend?
SETERS: Take one capsule the first night just before you go to bed. Then take two the next night, three the next night, and maybe four the next, if you need it. Always drink a big glass of water. Keep taking more until you go three times a day. If you get diarrhea, you are taking too many.

QUESTION: How many capsules do most people need in order to go three times a day?
SETERS: A lot of people can accomplish this by taking only three a day. Some may need more. I have seen people use 10-15 a day to get themselves going. The goal is to get by with only 1-2 capsules a day. In fact, the real goal is not to take any. I'll stand by this no matter what. Herbs are medicines and should help you to be normal; and normal means not taking anything except your foods.

QUESTION: Has anyone ever reached that level of not taking any?
SETERS: Sure, I have. I don't need the formula any longer. The only time I take any is when I go out to dinner and eat some things I didn't want to. Then I will take a few capsules before I go to bed. Usually the people who like bread always need the formula. Why? Because bread is constipating.

QUESTION: What is the highest number of capsules a person has taken?
SETERS: I know this story of a nurse who was full of inner turmoil. She would snap at people for no reason. An herbalist asked her how many bowel movements she had. She replied, “None of your damn business.” He told her, “If you have more bowel movements, you would be less miserable.” She said, “Go to hell!” But he left her with a bottle of the formula. Later he found out she was having only one bowel movement a week.
      One day she was feeling really miserable and she started taking the formula. She actually had to take about 40 capsules to break loose. She was really plugged up. Things started to break up. Within the year, she changed her diet and wasn't taking any capsules and she was having three bowel movements a day. And she became a very sweet, wonderful person. Later she told people, “If you only had one bowel movement a week, you would be bitter too.”

QUESTION: I talked to a reader from Maryland who works in a toxic laboratory and takes 16 capsules a day of the formula. He has done this for more than a year and swears he has gotten phenomenal results. Have you ever heard of someone taking such a high dose?
SETERS: Never. The only thing I can say is that his body must be extremely toxic and is trying to get rid of those toxins. If he left his job and worked in the fresh air, I doubt he would need nearly as many capsules.

QUESTION: This same reader got a pain in his colon when he started the formula but kept going and it just went away. Does that happen often?
SETERS: I rarely hear stories of people having pain when they take the formula. A few people may have a little discomfort, but this usually comes from taking too many capsules or not enough water.

QUESTION: Can a person clean out their colon by just changing their diet and not taking the formula?
SETERS: You can do it, but it would be a long drawn out process, which most people would not go through. It would just take so long.

QUESTION: A woman in Iowa told me her eyes were a light blue. Now after taking the formula, she claims her eyes are a dark blue. A few other readers had similar stories. Can the color of the eye change when the colon is cleansed?
SETERS: My own eyes were a dark grey. Now they are blue. I have seen many eyes go from brown to blue. The more garbage and crud in your body, the darker your eye will get. Generally, the browner the eyes, the more constipated, even with Indians and black people.
      One American Indian had eyes as black as coal. After six years of cleansing the colon his eyes became a light brown. We have a daughter who is now 30 years old. When she was a little girl her eyes were black. Now after years of cleaning they are a very light brown. “The browner the eye, the more constipated you are.”

QUESTION: How long does it take to notice a difference in eye color?
SETERS: It can take years of cleansing the colon. In half a year, you can possibly notice a change.

QUESTION: If a person has blue eyes, does this mean he has a healthy colon?
SETERS: It is impossible to say. I have seen some blue-eyed people who are very, very sick. When these people cleanse their colon, the eye can become a darker, richer blue.

QUESTION: A man in Georgia told me after he cleansed his colon and liver, the brown spots in his eye turned to yellow, and then disappeared. Can they vanish like that?
SETERS: I've seen this happen many times. The eyes are a reflection of your body. The spots are usually pockets in the colon. Diverticulitis can cause small black spots in the eye. A blockage in the colon can cause bigger spots in the eyes. ( See NOTE. )

NOTE: A colon expert from Milwaukee confirmed the relation between the eyes and the colon. "I can look at a person's eyes and tell whether or not they have a clean colon. When the colon is toxic, there are a lot of brown lines which radiate from the pupil. As the colon is cleaned these lines will gradually disappear." She did recall one patient whose eyes went from brown to blue, but she couldn't remember the details. She also told me, "When the colon is clean, there will be no bad breath and no under-arm odor."

QUESTION: Is the formula safe for pregnant women?
SETERS: I have never known a pregnant woman to have any problem and we have had an awful lot take it. Many times a mother will say, “I'm constipated, but I don't dare take this because I am nursing my baby.” I tell them, “Don't be afraid to take it, because what is making you constipated will possibly make the baby constipated.”
      I have known a number of newborn babies who were constipated and the problem was coming from the mother. We would give the formula to the mother to cure her constipation and this would produce a better quality milk. Then when the baby would drink this milk, the baby's bowel problem would disappear. In other words, we cured the baby through the mother. Obviously this can occur only when the baby is nursing.
      Many times we have found that a baby will be cranky and cry a lot when the mother is constipated. This is because the mother is giving the baby what I call ‘cranky milk.’ It sounds crazy but I know it to be true. If there are poisons going through the mother's body, they must also be going through the baby's body. This is why many babies catch colds. The problem comes directly from the mother's colon. “DIARRHEA IS THE WORST FORM OF CONSTIPATION.”

QUESTION: Can small children take this formula?
SETERS: Definitely. Some of these kids today are really constipated. They eat junk. Junk! I knew this mother whose baby had horrible breath.
      The mother told me the baby often had ten bowel movements before noon. The mother asked me what was wrong. I said, “Don't you know?” She said, “No.” I said he was constipated. The mother replied, “You call this constipated? He has soiled ten different diapers in the morning. He has diarrhea, not constipation.”
      I told her that diarrhea is the worst form of constipation. Let me explain why. When you have a blockage in the bowel, the body has to get rid of it or you can die. Normally the body will pull moisture out of the colon. But in this case the body reverses the process and starts to put moisture back into the bowel. It sends more and more moisture to the colon to break up that blockage. Diarrhea can save your life.
      We gave the baby two capsules of the formula mixed in applesauce. Then we gave him some prune juice. Soon the baby had a big, massive bowel movement--two of them. His breath got real nice and he stopped crying. Before he cried constantly. He was never constipated like that again.

QUESTION: What's the dose for a child?
SETERS: Usually one fourth of the dose of an adult. For a baby, you can start them off on one-half a capsule. For a small child, you can start them off on one capsule.

QUESTION: A close friend of mine in New York took a popular herbal formula for weight loss and it almost killed her. Can this formula cause any side effects?
SETERS: I have never seen any side effects. Just remember, moderation in all things.

QUESTION: The formula contains the herb Cascara Sagrada. One health book said this herb should not be taken by pregnant women or people with hemorrhoids or ulcers.
SETERS: If a person uses this herb by itself it is too harsh. But combined with other herbs in the formula, it is safe for these conditions, assuming you start with mild doses and use it properly.

QUESTION: Can a person become dependent on the formula? Is it habit forming?
SETERS: I have had a hundred people ask me that. There is nothing in it that is habit forming.

QUESTION: I talked to two readers who were on the formula for six months to a year. Then they stopped the formula and found they couldn't go to the bathroom. They were forced to keep taking it.
SETERS: Taking the formula is only half of the solution. If you keep eating a lot of breads and other garbage, you will become constipated again. You need more fruits and vegetables. When I first starting taking the formula, I was only having one bowel movement every other day. At that time I was eating like everyone else. When I changed my diet, I started having 3-4 bowel movements a day, sometimes more.
      One relative of mine takes four capsules of the formula every night. She has been doing this for almost 8-10 years. I told her, “You shouldn't be taking this formula every night.” She said, “Why not? If I don't, I won't have good bowel movements.” I told her to eat better and have more salads. She said, “Look, get off my back. I'll eat what I want. You ate what you wanted when you were younger and I am going to eat what I want.” She loves pastas and breads, and takes the formula as a crutch. But for her, this makes her happy.

QUESTION: What is the most frequent comment you hear from people after they take the formula?
SETERS: I have had so many people tell me they felt rotten and depressed, and then they went to the bathroom and felt so much better. After you have a good bowel movement, you just plain feel better. It is almost immediate.

QUESTION: Can the formula help pets? I know a lot of readers will be asking that question.
SETERS: Yes, it can help animals who are constipated. I knew a lady who had a dog who was really straining to have a bowel movement. She gave him one capsule a night and soon his disposition got better and his hair got glossier. As dogs get older, they tend to get constipated. It can be a day and a half before they go.

“A mini-cleanse, for best colon results” –by Joe Seters “The 2nd part of the program is the cleanse. It's like pumping out the septic tank. Take this only when you start having 3 bowel movements regularly. If you just take the formula, and nothing else, it is like washing your face and hands without taking a bath. You will soon get pretty dirty. This 3 hour, mini-cleanse is easy to follow. You only miss one meal.”       #1. Once a month, take 4-5 capsules of the formula at night. This clears the path through the bowel.       #2. The next morning, don't eat breakfast. Instead, take 16-24 ounces of prune juice. (Women only need 16 oz.) This will clean out the pockets in the colon the formula can't reach. This will give you diarrhea. You want this! It washes out the colon.       #3. Then one hour later, you sip one quart of apple juice. If you drink it and don't sip it, it can trip the pancreas and cause blood sugar problems. At noon, the program ends.       #4. Eat a normal lunch and dinner. “The first few times, the bathroom will stink like crazy!” Options: A.) Go on this mini-cleanse one day a week for ten weeks. Then you can do this only once a month for maintenance. B.) Take 24 ounces of prune juice and divide this into three 8 ounce glasses. Drink the first. In the second glass, mix in a heaping teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Sip this and let it burn your throat. This will pull the phlegm out of your throat, mouth, nose and bronchioles. Strings of old mucus will come out in the sink. The last glass takes the burn out of your throat.

QUESTION: How many capsules of the formula do you take for maximum results?
ELI: For most, it is best to take six capsules a day--two, two and two--morning, noon, and night. About 20% of the people get the runs the first three days. If you still have the runs after the first three days, then you decrease the amount until you don't get the runs but you don't have to strain when you go to the bathroom. If after three days you are still straining, you have to start increasing the amount.

QUESTION: Can you take six capsules at once instead of dividing up the dose?
ELI: You can't do that. That's like assaulting the body and it can't take it. The analogy is, a little water is good for a plant, but you don't immerse the plant in the bathtub. If you take too many capsules at once, the body won't use them.

QUESTION: Do people ever need more than six capsules a day?
ELI: Many will take six and nothing happens. We took one lady up to 18 capsules a day, and then all of a sudden everything broke loose. Finally she started having three bowel movements a day. She was so clogged up, she needed that much to blast out. Within a week and a half, she was down to 6 capsules a day.

QUESTION: Does it matter if you take the formula before or after a meal?
ELI: You must take the formula at least 30 minutes before every meal. It has to go down to the colon and do its work before the food gets there. If you take the formula after a meal, it's not that effective. You should always take an eight ounce glass of water with every dose.
      Take it six days a week and rest on the seventh day. This is absolutely critical. It's the key to success. If you don't take a day off, the herbs will eventually just be flushed out by the body. The body is like the brain. It cannot just keep going and going. It needs that day of rest. And if it does not get it, it will eliminate its work as in the case of the herbs. It will just flush them out of the system and not use them.

QUESTION: Do some people ever need less than six capsules a day?
ELI: Some only need three capsules a day to get their three bowel movements a day. One person I know only needs one capsule a day. Everyone is different. dog who was just about blind. He couldn't walk or anything else. She put him on the formula and claims that within three days, he was walking again. She wanted to know if she should take him off of it. I told her, “You probably just scraped the bare, bare, top of the crud in the colon.” She was so delighted with the results, she requested 10 bottles. I think she was using one capsule a day for each dog.

QUESTION: Is there any last piece of advice you can give our readers?
SETERS: Drink more water. This is why most cows have healthier colons than humans. They drink so much water, their fecal matter is always full of moisture. Their movements are so runny, they can't plug up. They go to the bathroom very easily. You will find that the people who drink more water have better and more frequent bowel movements. Plus a cow chews its food a lot more.
