Shiny, Flexible Poop

One of my coworkers feels the need for a colon cleansing. My colon is self-cleaning, but I guess not all colons come with that feature. She doesn't just want to add fiber to her diet or take a laxative for relief, she wants to scour every nook and cranny of her colon until it's squeaky clean.

She's been researching colon cleansing products on the internet. Some products work in only one hour. How scary is that? How is it possible to swallow some capsules and only an hour later to have a cleaned out digestive tract? That must hurt.

Anyway, some of the sites have photos of what comes out during the colon cleansing. Being a nurse, I've seen plenty of poop, but I've never seen poop like this. The photos look like the lining of the colon came out. I've never seen poop that is shiny or that can be draped over a spoon. Have you?




Oh, I almost forgot. Don't read this if you're squeamish.
