Something you are interested in watching? Has daytime television gone too far?

I have no idea. I mean, have the procedure done by all means if you'd like, but what's the incentive for airing it live on t.v.?

does she show the poopoo going down the drain? that might be too far...but at least informative as colonics are good for you (esp when used with a good diet, and exercise). i once walked out with...i kid you not...better vision.

Please tell me you're kidding about the "better vision". How can that be?

It doesn't surprise me but she has gone too far, along with just about any thing else to do with the media today.

Well, a clean and healthy colon is vital, so I guess if this raises awareness and shows more people that it really isn't as horrible as it seems, then great. ... Still, there is an EW factor!

you are totally wrong! That procedure is not healthy if you do it often, it can even lead to death! The healthier way to a clean colon, in the natural way. Washing it, it leads to loss of intestinal flora and fat that is crucial! Whoever does that on a regular basis, is insane. And I don;t understand why doctors don't inform their patients....

So... is the volunteer getting paid? I can't understand this. It's probably more embarassing than performing a gyno exam on TV.

that might be but according to Forbes, she is the highest paid woman on tv right now...she earned $30 million last year.

if you don;t know what you're doing when you get a colonic, it can be VERY dangerous. I think promoting this on a vacuous show like the Tyra Banks show is irresponsible, not to mention disgusting, all in the name of ratings.

Eat Vegetarian/Vegan and you will never have to worry about your colon or any back up whatsoever. Colonics are bs and can be bad for you.

Meh, nothing is really shocking anymore. I want to get one of these done sometime. I would watch this, if I watched TV. I like watching medical things.

They did that on the Simple Life - camp edition.. and not just one. Like 10 people. Take that Tyra.

debbie dlb debbie dlb said:

i'd do it on t.v....just not on her show (me no like the tbankz). AND colonics CAN be bad for you, they are not necessarily bad. "Regularly" can mean seasonal or even yearly. Also, for many people, it is an alternative to prescription medication. You can argue that those people should reduce stress, eat better, yadayada, but for some people that is not their option. maybe for them at that time, being holistic means taking in (more) veggies, going on 10 minute walks, and getting some h-dos-o up their butt. and yes, it does wash out flora but if you go to a good therapist, they would have you beef up on your yogurts and/or probiotics. i would say even a mildly decent one would tell you to do so. as a matter of fact, if you choose to do one, this could be a filter question you ask the therapist to see if he/she (usually a she) knows what she/he is doing. finally, doctors do not prescribe this kind of medicine because HMOs will not cover it and RX companies can't make money off of it (how can they charge healthy people?)

Eeeewww! Who would volunteer to have that done to them on national television?!? I mean, it's not like you'd even want to tell your friends and family to tune in and see you on the show...

unbelieveable

Yeah, I think it is inappropriate on her show, because she is probably just trying to push viewer levels... look at her face! What's the purpose?
However, they also did in on Jackass, just to add sth. to the list :-)
I am not going to watch it.
