I don't believe the heart is part of the gastrointestinal system.

And?

His quote was, in part, "your internals aren't dirty". It's going to be a huge relief to a lot of people who thought they had clogged arteries, high cholesterol, tooth decay, etc.

He probably meant you don't have pounds of impacted feces in your colon.

Does anyone believe that to be true?

Seems like it's the topic of discussion and the whole point of his post, considering this is a thread about cleansing that system and he started his post with "Your gastrointestinal system is actually incredibly efficient..."

I think some people are just using "cleanse" and "change of diet" interchangeably.... yes, if you eat less, you get hungry. If you change your diets, certain cravings will fade and you could very well feel better... that doesn't mean you're rinsing away stuff in your intestines and getting rid of the so-called toxins.

So you're saying that Saul Good is full of shit?

I'm sure people have made a decent amount of money off colon cleanser treatments, so yes.

Fair enough. I didn't think that was the type of "cleanse" we were discussing.

No

LMAO.... ummm.... LMAO...

Artery obstruction and plaque have absolutely zero to do with gastrointestinal "cleansing", or toxins, or pretty much anything in discussion here. They are in no way comparable.

And you're even trying to compare arterial plaque to dental plaque. WTF?

Arterial plaque is caused by excess fat and fibrin in the blood. You don't get it from any outside source and it's not a toxin, it's produced by your body naturally. Dental plaque is a bacterial biofilm. And although you don't want a huge plaque buildup on the teeth because that can lead to other harmful things, the bacteria that makes up dental plaque is actually beneficial to your body.

I swear, I'm going to switch to the homeopathy profession. One could put aside their ethics and make a freakin killing....

Why on earth would you confuse the blood circulatory system with the digestive system?

Clogged arteries and high cholesterol are due to the body's reaction to horrible diet and exercise. It has nothing to do with any toxins or "Dirty internals". When a person neglects a healthy diet and exercise, fat naturally builds up in the body. Even including the lining of your arteries. That's what clogs arteries, not dirty mysterious toxins. Nothing you eat magically escapes your digestive system and lodges itself in your blood circulatory system. It's a natural function of an unhealthy body. Cholesterol medication actually does something to your body. There is detailed proof of exactly what it treats, and how it functions. Go ask a doctor what "Cleansing product" you should use to treat cholesterol, and see what they say.

ROFL

I have never once used the word toxins. Your post started about the digestive system and proceeded to expand to the entire body.

Brilliance, simply brilliant. ROFL
