might give you more ideas...

The absolute best colon cleanse I've ever used, is a combination of the following:

1) Deflect,
2) astragalus,
3) rose hips,
4) caprylic acid
5) Polyflora
6) ARA

For caprylic acid - try Intrinsa

The Inside Story on Intrinsa

That's right... Intrinsa has caprylic acid.  

I'd been taking it before, but for the butyric acid.  I never noticed it had caprylic, too.

Intrinsa works very well for me.  

Ron,
What part does rose hips play in intestinal cleansing?

Victoria, I just read that Rosehips works as a mild laxative among it's other uses.  

Victoria,

I don't know what specific part it plays, but I do know that Dr. D lists it under his antibacterial protocol, as a rich source of non-corn-derived vitamin C.  

Thank you Ron and Rex,
I sure have like vit. C a lot since I switched away from ascorbic acid a few years ago!  It's hard to find a good source that is high in vit C and still blood type compliant.  
rose hips, acerola cherry, amla, camu . . .

You're welcome Victoria.  Glad that I was able to help you.  You've been a tremendous help to me with my oh so many questions.

Victoria,

I think the rose hips I have on my shelf is from Solaray.

Victoria,

I use rose hips from the bulk bin at the HFS to make tea with, though not often enough! They have a very good shelf life.

nature s sunshine has pure rosehips caps, too.

I have Alvita Rosehips herbal tea.  Is that a good one?

Rex,

I don't know.  I've never used it.  I only know that I tend to prefer the idea of ingesting the whole plant, whenever possible.  

I have no incontrovertible evidence to support this bias one way or another, but I do it anyway.  

Lola,

Do you know how much vit. C the nature's sunshine has per capsule?.  I only found information that there is 560mg of rosehips per capsule, but nothing about actual vitamin c content.

Thanks!
Mickey

rosehips is pure vit C!

Thanks Lola!,

That's a good deal then, considering you get 560mg of vit. c per capsule and the price is good!.  Thanks for the info.

Mickey

it is!
I like buying organic bulk rosehip.
let soak a tbsp during the night in a cup of water......
warm next morning and drink up...scoop the fruit with a spoon.
it s a C bomb!

I will have to try that.  Have been enjoying more and more tea these days.  Does it taste like roses smell?  

no, In fact the dried rose hips taste sweet sour....very C vitaminish!! lol

I use hot (not boiling) water in the evening, soak a tsp while eating dinner, enjoy as a postprandial about an hour after dinner (spooning the fruit a la' Lola).

you never get a cold doing that, right?
'a la Lola'....cute! lol
