Anyone have any info about Dr. Natura / Colonix ? [more inside]

Is it a scam? unhealthy? amazing? ordinary? A friend has purchased the product and could not find info on the product other than the glowing testimonials from its site.

"Most people who eat the standard American 'goo and glue' diet have about 5-10 pounds of matter stored in the colon. It's said that, according to the autopsy, John Wayne had 40 pounds of impacted fecal matter in his body at death. Elvis reportedly had 60 pounds."

I don't know specifically, but basing your claims on something long since debunked is somewhat dubious.

It's bullshit is what it is.

Reading the testimonials at that web site made me want to bleach my brain. Twice.

A google search revealed something called Gastroinestinal Quackery that may or may not be useful.
