Mucoid Plaque - Yep, it's real all right

[akh78749]

I was debating posting this because I know some of you believe mucoid plaque is a myth and I honestly didn't feel like getting into a big debate. That being said, I am not going to try and convince anyone anything. I just want to tell you about my experience. I wasn't sure about mucoid plaque actually being real until I did a 3 day colon cleanse last week. I have done many juice fasts, colonics and enemas with no mucoid plaque showing up, ever. Not until now.

Seeing it for myself, I have no doubt mucoid plaque is real. I got almost 3 feet out the second day and about 6 feet total. I saw a very distinct difference between the fiber that was pulling the plaque out and the plaque itself. It kind of looked like the fiber (that was in the shakes), just wrapped around the plaque and pulled it out. Actually, that is what happened. It was extremely obvious that the stuff had been there for years. The fiber was fresh, just a day old. The plaque definitely wasn't. Had I not done the cleanse, I probably would have taken myself to the hospital thinking I had something horrible. I was truly amazed. I felt very faint, like I was going to pass out right before it came out. Then when it did, I had tons of energy. I was quite a weird experience.

If any of you are thinking about doing a colon cleanse, I highly recommend getting this one: www.bryantmeyers.com. I don't know him. I just chose his cleanse because it seemed simple and it only takes three days. He's very nice and will even talk to you over the phone to discuss any concerns you have. You don't have to choke down any horse pills either, which it nice. There are no pills at all - only a bunch of shakes. If you buy it through Pay Pal, you can opt to get a money back guarantee. I think the gaurantee will cost you $7. So you only lose $7, if it doesn't work. I don't think everyone has mucoid plaque. But I think most of us do. I have eaten a primarily vegetarian diet for the last 10 years. I am 33. I will being doing his cleanse at least once, if not twice a year.

Hmm interesting. I havn't looked yet but I"m worried about waht would be in the shakes since I'm allergic/sensative to many foods. Are the shakes raw? I know I need to clean my colon and that I'm in a toxic condition even with raw. How else did you feel? Did you feel lighter or anything?

[akh78749]

I am not sure if the shakes are raw. I doubt they are. They are mostly dried herbs and dried vegetables. Here are a list of the ingredients:

1st shake - wheatgrass and enzyme

2nd shake - carrot, lady finger, soya beans, passion fruit, omega 3, fiber, guar gum and fruit flavor.

3rd shake - Fiber, lady finger, red rice and soya beans.

The fiber in the shakes is palm oil fiber. I believe it's the secret ingredient to getting the plaque out.

I did feel lighter and had kind of an empty feeling. My waist seemed a lot smaller. I say seemed, because I have gone back to eating again. I have always had a flat stomach, but it was really flat after the cleanse.

[RedFizz]

I went to the website, and I could not figure out what link to go to in order find the product/price. Can you help me out?

Thanks!

[janicejourney]

I have had the same thing happen during my Master Cleanse with Blessed herb cleanse. It was like a clear tube that was black from the stuff that came out with it, and it was wrapped around the shake stuff. It stunk like nothing I have ever smelled. My guess is the reason the doubter can't see it in the colon is it is a clear coating on the walls of the intestines until it is pulled off with the cleanse. I don't care if others don't believe it.. I KNOW it because it happened to me.

[rawpriestess]

Hi, I won't get into the debate either, I'm just glad you are happy with your results, not all are.


so, I am glad you feel it worked for you.

[codajess]

Yeah. I did the MC with nothin' but butt pee and some onion skin looking stuff.

Did my first psyllium drinks last week, got this "mucoid plaque." It smelled horrible. Like burning rubber. and looked exactly like those ropes on the cleansing websites. Floating and weird looking.

I looked a little closer (i'm enthralled by gross things like that) and it was just my regular poop encased in psyllium gunk.

Glad yours worked, though!

ETA: Sorry about the graphicness. :) How attractive can you make mucoid plaque, though? :D

Well, those are out for me then. I can't do wheat (not sure about wheatgrass and don't want to chance it), soy, guar gum, or rice.

[Fragola]

I am glad that you have posted this info. I have bought that cleanse myself, but I haven't received anything yet (I live in Europe, but 20 days are gone now...) and I was starting to doubt the guy a little :confused:
I am glad that you have a good opinion of him though.
I will wait a bit longer, I am quite curious to try this cleanse.

I would bet he just sent it regular mail and it is taking a while to get to you. It took about a week to get to me and I live in the states. I would just email him, so he can let you know when he sent it.

[akh78749]

Thanks!


Just email him through the website. He will send you information on how to go about ordering it. That's how I did it.

[Mina]

I read one of the testimonials on his website (Amy) and you sound exactly the same. did you copy it because it is word for word or are you the smae personne (amy)???

[Fragola]

Bryant wrote me an email himself, after reading this post and without me even asking, and told me about the shipping.
I have to say that is been really kind of him!!
The cleanse is on its way :D

[rawfoodforever]

Dreamrawalwz All the ingredients are put through a probiotic fermentation process, so many of the common allegens are removed... I understand your concerns though. Also the wheatgrass is perfectly safe even for celiac/tropical sprue... The gluten and irratating compounds are removed when the seed is sprouted. :rolleyes:

Mina Hi, you're right, I asked Amy for her testimony and she gave me this thread... I cut and pasted to my website. :)

rawpriestess Love your Avatar and your artwork---beautiful ;)

Fragola Thanks for the kind words. Email me anytime if you have questions. I want to help you get the best results possible. :)

Whatever product you use, periodic colon cleansing is one of the best ways to prevent disease and also help transition to 100% raw foods.

Oops, just saw this.

Yes, I was so happy with the cleanse that I let Bryant know I posted it to this thread. And I told him he could use it as a testimonial for his site.

Hi Fellow Raw Fooders,

I just wanted to provide some new information I received about this cleanse.

1) It is Organic
2)It is Non-Gmo
3) The highest temperature used is 104 degrees fahrenheit (well below the 115-120 cutoff for enzyme degradation)
4) I have several new testimonies available at my website including one from an employee at Nature's First Law (he tried Ejuva and Arise and shine without success).

here's the link for the new testimonials:

Wow, I will definately look into this. I've been using Dr.Natura's Colonix with very successful results but nothing 2 feet long!!

Thanks for sharing!

[rawfoodforever]

Hey Jen,

Thanks, I have worked with several products the last 10 years and I too have never seen results like this product. The Oil Palm fiber is unique to this product...

BTW, I love some of the clips of your music I heard : )

Good luck in your move to Miami,

This week, I started the same cleanse. Here's what's been going on in my lowers, for those who are interested (some graphic info ahead):

- I've been high raw for five weeks, but I've got a host of food allergies and have had digestive problems for years.
- I've been following the instructions to the letter, although I could probably stand to drink more water.
- I started the 2-day pre-cleanse on Tuesday (reduced diet and herbal laxatives) and the 3-day cleanse yesterday. Everything is powdered and mixed with 12oz of water: wheatgrass at 7:30am, flavored shake at 8am, electrolytes at 10am, flavored shake at noon, electrolytes at 3pm, flavored shake at 6pm, wheatgrass at 9pm.
- I have felt mild hunger here and there, but have been able to easily knock it out with water.
- I had frequent bowel movements until around 2pm on Thursday, which I attribute to the remaining food and last dose of laxatives on Wednesday night.
- I've been urinating every 45-60 minutes both days. My energy levels were stable and great until 5pm today... had a very stressful work week and needed more water! I'm home resting tonight, and plan to do the same tomorrow.
- Towards the evening on both days, the drinks made me very bloated and achey. I bloat easily anyway, so this was not overly surprising given the amount of fiber I've been consuming. I finally started massaging my abdomen in the hopes of getting things moving... and they did. Around 8pm, I passed about a foot of the stuff you see in all of the photos. The first few inches were dark green, which seems like it must be the wheatgrass being dragged out. I poked at it a bit, and the inside was a different color... more of a reddish brown, which could be the shake itself. The rest was a medium brown, and fluffier (less ropey) than a lot of the pics but definitely not a regular BM.

Interested to see what happens next... and anxious for this bloated belly to go back down.

mcasburn,

can I ask you how much you paid for the product?

Is it correct that it lasts just 3 days?

So far do you think it has been worth it?

I wanted to purchase Dr. Natura's Colonix, but my boyfriend told me it was crazy to pay $76 for a product like that, when other brands are less than $20. Overall, I just want a good quality product.

[mcasburn]

It's $145, which includes full support (Bryant has been very responsive and very nice) and Takara detox foot patches. The pre-cleanse is 3 days, the cleanse is 3 days, and post-cleanse is 3 days.

As for whether it's worth it, I can't say until I'm all the way through it.

[sevenbravo]

My wife had been on the Ejuva cleanse for about 4 weeks with little results before trying the So Easy cleanse. She had immediate, good results with the So Easy Cleanse. I asked her not to give me the details, because, you know, there are just somethings I don't want to know about. But lets just say that she got plenty of plaque out. I will be trying this cleanse soon myself, once I take care of some other issues.
I think if my wife can get something out, then anyone can. She eats very well, tons of greens, and she fasts regularly, sometimes for weeks.

[sevenbravo]

I think the cheap cleanses might work for those on the standard american diet, who couldn't tolerate what we eat on a daily basis. Those people could save a lot of money by coming to eat at my house....that would give them a good colon cleansing.

What is a detox foot patch? I've never heard of this.

[mcasburn]

The site explains it better than I could:
http://www.takarapatch.com/

If you scroll down, there's an interesting "before and after" pic. And that's exactly what they looked like on my feet the next morning, in addition to being damp and sticky.

[Tirza]

I'm bringing this back up in case I forget about it. Has anyone heard an answer to this?


I have a question that might have been answered in the sites of those who sell this product:

It was always my understanding that the mucus lining of the stomach and intestines was a protection for the inside surface against ulcers etc. You know how if you eat a food really high in acid, the inside of your mouth feels different, kind of tacky, not slippery anymore, and a little sensitive or raw feeling. (not a good kind of "raw" like in the raw diet) You can then get little canker sores. Not comfortable.

Why would we want to remove that protection?

Sorry if it's a dumb question, but it's only dumb if I don't ask it, right?

[tvillemom]

I guess I was kinda worried about the same thing. Is removing ALL of that stuff really safe?? I like the idea of being REALLY clean, but I simply can't afford the price....maybe when my ship comes in. Is there another way to get similar results? I was thinking of doing the "master cleanse"....not to change the subject.....I need to do a serious cleanse.....I have candida issues....

[rawfoodforever]

Hi Doubleg,

That is not a dumb question at all. I am in the process of writing a book on the colon, but for now I think some of your questions would be answered on this link to my blog... All the posts on my Blog so far are describing the nature of the mucoid plaque and its correlation with disease. There is actually good medical research on the subject. Check out the link below, it includes my correspondance with Richard Anderson, Christina Amelog, President of Blessed Herbs and Dr. Keith Pyne.

http://www.tiptopwebsite.com/websites/index.php?username=bryantmeyers&page=7

Take Care,
Bryant

[Sharon in Colorado]

These are good questions. I also used to believe in fecal "build up" until I saw the medical photos of both healthy and diseased colons, most likely eaters of the SAD, with pink and smooth lining.

I am sure we have something in our colons, but as far as I know, it's the stuff that is on it's way out, not something that is stuck to the walls.

Now there is the statement of this plaque, which apparantly is transluscent according to the commentary in this thread? In the photos of colons, it looks like the same material as the inside of a mouth. I don't see anything other than the tissue of the colon.

http://www.gihealth.com/html/education/photo.html

Is there a way to verify that the matter coming out actually contains plaque and not just fecal matter mixed up with the supplement? It would be good to have some kind of lab evidence of the matter, not just reading testimonials of people writing "15 feet of plaque came out of me".

[karenbeel]

Yes I totally agree with you Sharon I wsh there was some kind of lab that would do that kind of testing too. I would be very intrigued to know myself. what the results would be.

[mcasburn]

I would like to see photos of "built-up fecal matter" before it is "removed" by a colonic... Anybody seen some?

[karenbeel]

Yes that would also be very interesting to see too. Just to really know one way or another.

[codajess]

I would like to see photos of "built-up fecal matter" before it is "removed" by a colonic... Anybody seen some?

You mean from like a camera that goes inside and sees it there? My mind is completely blanking on what that's called.. I've had a stomach scope, but I can't for the life of me think of what it's called when it comes in the other end... Col...cripes. Whatever. Y'all know what I mean.

[mcasburn]

You're talking about a colonoscopy?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonoscopy

I've never had one either...although I've had a camera up my nose and down into my throat, and another in my urethra; both were pretty unpleasant. I've also had an upper GI series, and barium is no fun coming out the other end: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_GI_series

Anyway, yeah... I've done this cleanse and I've had colonics, and I really go back and forth on whether they're doing a body any good.

I'm going back to my watermelon now.

[sport]

Rawfoodforever has made statements on this thread and has 5 posts. They are the only 5 posts that he has on this forum.
I have already expressed my feelings on the other posts about the member who has 8 posts there.
These people have come on here only to sell us something and I do not like or thrust that. If their products were so good they would not need to resort to this underhand form of marketting

UGH YES, thank you! It was right on the tip of my tongue and the only colon-esque word I could think of was "colonic" and obviously that wasn't it, cuz I know what a colonic is. I could've just looked it up, but i'm a lazy bastage and I'd rather spend the time typing pointless posts.

[Naiad]

I'm pretty interested in those foot patches. I saw a brand of them sold in the Gaiam catalog. Has anyone tried them before? Patches in general, not necessarily the ones mentioned in this thread.

[RawSoccerDude]

Come on sport be a good sport .. haha... I understand what you're saying.. take a chill pill bro... Listen most people are close minded and won't even eat a piece of kale.. nor will they ever consider doing a cleanse or give up dairy.. or meat or snickers.. so I am more in line with people on the raw food forums and open minded individuals... some things come with a price... if I had a great cost effective way to really clean the colon and intestinal tract well I would tell everyone how to do it for free.. and they're probably is a way to get this stuff out for like liess than $50 by buying your own ingredients and preparing it yourself.. maybe I'll stumble onto that ( and I'm not talking about an easy cleanse like master cleanse, or juice/veggie clenases..because those only go so far and deep)... don't knock others who enjoy sharing their results and asking to see if they'd like to try something that's been experienced.. whether it costs money or not...

warm regards,
michael george... I guess I'll have to earn some respect here.. ;) I am the newbie on this forum.. but the Dragon warrior of light will shine on ... shine on you crazy diamond... haha... living with laughter!!!

[Sharon in Colorado]

Well hopefully you didn't come here thinking anyone was guillable about supplements or anything...

We like to discuss this stuff as a group a lot you'll notice. Some here are veyr pure while others use suppelementation. And then there's everyone in between.

[RawSoccerDude]

Rawk on! What the message I entered was too short says the pop up window.. what kind of programming is this.. what does it all mean?

[rawfoodforever]

Sport,

I understand your concerns, but if you look closely, I did not initiate the topic. Amy Hard did. She posted initially without my knowledge and I came in only to answer questions. I am sure she would be more than happy to confirm this if you wanted proof.

But even if I did initiate the thread, if I got fantastic results (which I did), I would just want to share it with all my rawfood friends.

Currently, I am not posting on any forum except roaringlionpublishing.com and even there less and less. I am very busy, but I will respond to questions when asked.

My nature is to help others and if there was a product that was as easy and effective as this cleanse for a better price I would switch.

But certainly I understand you are just looking out for the forums best interest.

Sharon , first I want to say you have a beautiful looking family as pictured on your website. What a breathtaking view. Is that where you live?

Anyway, yes the mucoid plaque debate continues hot and heavy, but for those that want to honestly see evidence for the existence of the plaque, I would first recommend reading very carefully the link I provided on my last post and then for further study, check out Richard Anderson, ND and his new book, Patient Heal Thyself, part 2.

Also the President of Blessed Herbs is working with several doctors on proving its existence.

I have some good anticdotal evidence. First, I personally have done the cleanse three times. The first time I removed 4-5 feet, the second 1 foot and the third nothing came out. I prepared and followed up the same each time. So the plaque is not just the fiber. Also I had very obvious tape-worm fragments that came out from my parasite infestation in India in 1998. As I biology major who performed several worm dissections, I am 100% positive it was worm pieces. Also the smell of what comes how is nothing short of horrific, definitely not normal #2 redolence...haha. Many customers have also reported foul smelling and sometimes unbearable smelling evacuations.

Another great piece of evidence showing it removes more than the previous few meals, is one customer noticed several pieces of corn in her discharge and HAD NOT EATEN CORN IN OVER A YEAR! How can you explain that one?

The research is there for those who seek truth above all else, and I dare each and every one of you to find your own truth. Whether you use the product I sell or another like Ejuva, I would strongly incourage at least one cleanse a year along with a kidney, liver, gallbladder, lymph, lung and skin cleansing.

Currently Richard Anderson's new book is the best resource I have found with MORE than enough evidence to quell the doubts of even the debunking gurus. So check it out and Peace be with you all!!!

With Love and Kindness,
Bryant

P.S. I am currently writing a humorous and informative e-book on the colon... My Masters Thesis is using Humor in Education... So anyone here interested I would offer a free copy... (with lots of jokes and laughs if nothing else)

[Spectatrix]

Maybe I'm just a super-skeptic, but I suspect that a simple "cleanse" comprised just of metamucil would cause me eliminate this supposed "mucoid plaque". Maybe I should try that some day.

[PDMagnusen]

I've had quite a few colonoscopies in my life and the camera on the end of the scope video tapes the journey through the gastrointestinal tract and also takes photographs. Everytime, the entire lining was pink - no buildup of any kind. I'm definitely not saying it's impossible for people to have "mucoid plaque", but I don't know how common it is??

Same here. Always pink as a baby's cheek. And during the preparation for the colonoscopy, when one has to drink all that liquid stuff (it is the worst part of the colonoscopy) and you run to the toilet all the time, there is NOTHING that looks like mucoid plaque.

So, ladies and gentlemen, my question is: "WHO STOLE THE MUCOID PLAQUE??? DON'T ANYONE LEAVE THE ROOM UNTIL WE HAVE FOUND THE CULPRIT!!!"

[RawSoccerDude]

Does this camera travel through every nook and cranny.. every inch of the intestinal tract too?

I suspect not everyone has it too.. what have your diets been your first 20 years of life?

Hello people.. the alleged Mucoid Plaque is mainly clogged in the intestines with some possibly lingering in the colon tract...

What is Mucoid Plaque ?


Answer: From the works of Richard Anderson, N.D., N.M.D.

"The intestines can store a vast amount of partially digested, putrefying matter (as well as drugs and other toxic chemicals)—for decades even. Some intestines, when autopsied, have weighed up to 40 pounds and were distended to a diameter of 12 inches with only a pencil-thin channel through which the feces could move.

Mucoid plaque may vary considerably, depending on the chemical conditions in a person’s intestines. It may be hard and brittle; it may be firm and thick; tough, wet, and rubbery; soft, thick, and mucoid; or soft, transparent, and thin; it can range in color from light brown, black, or greenish-black to yellow or grey, and sometimes emits an intensely foul odor. "

[RawSoccerDude]

Apparently it's challenging to get a good view of the insides of the small intestines.. but new micro-cameras are coming out to help doctors get a better idea and picture of what's going on...

which makes sense considering how fricken long the small intestines are and how it's so compact and turning this way and that...
