cleaning out my colon with an abundance of cherries, oops!

I bought 18 lbs of organic cherries because i got an amazing deal.
So i went home and ate a large amount. The next 48 hrs i pretty much
cleaned out my entire colon. I was going to the washroom 8 times a day for 2 days.

My question is, was this in the end a good and healthy way to clean out my colon?
I had no other reactions, just passed a lot of stool. And i mean a lot. I actually
felt lighter and better after the 48 hrs.
Is this a good way to flush out my colon?

I did this one time, learned my lesson a couple hours later. I guess my body was trying to tell me to take it easy on the cherries! grinning smiley

Eating two cups of cherries for breakie as I write this--let's see what happens!

Eddie,

Cherries are choc full of vitamin goodness and inflammation fighting phytochemicals. They are also rich in pectin, a great substance for cleaning out the intestine and chelating cholesterol from the liver. I'm sure your body is thanking your right now.

What kind of cherries did you consume? Sweet or sour?

I suspect if you keep eating the cherries, at some point your body would adapt and they wouldn't have the same effect on you.
