Bromacleanse

Our Rating:

Bromacleanse is an interesting formula; it's not clear whether it is primarily a colon cleanser or a weight loss supplement. All colon cleansers support weight loss by clearing out excess toxic weight and improving digestion, but Bromacleanse contains a "thermogenic fat burner" as well and claims to deposit "probiotics" in the colon. I will go into further detail on both of these later on.

The Bromacleanse site has some good information about health, as you would expect mostly about the way the colon's health impacts the rest of the body. There were even a few facts I didn't know, such as how the colon can be blocked up to 80%. With only 20% open to remove waste, it is much easier for additional waste to build up, and it is no wonder that 2.5 million physician visits a year are due to problems with the colon. Unlike many other sites, the ingredients are clearly displayed. Unfortunately this is the point I got somewhat confused.

One of the main ingredients of Bromacleanse is Mangosteen extract. Mangosteen is chocked full of vitamins and antioxidants, which help boost overall health. It also can increase energy and improve the immune system, but other than a very loose and vague connection to possibly helping gastro intestinal problems it does not relate to colon cleansing. Another ingredient which seemed to be out of place is grape seed extract. Something which is very healthy for you, it helps combat high blood pressure and lowers cholesterol, but has nothing to do with colon cleansing.

Green Tea extract is used in many, many various herbal supplements, but this is the first time I've seen it used in a colon cleanser. Green tea has some applications as an appetite suppressant, and also boosts metabolism so that you store less fat from the food that you eat. On Bromacleanse's website they refer to it as a thermogenic fat burner, which basically means that it burns fat by increasing your body temperature so that you sweat it out. I have yet to see any evidence to suggest that Green Tea could increase body temperature significantly. Pills which are powerful enough to act as thermogenic fat burners are not always safe. You may want to do a Google search for "DNP", one of the earliest diet pills which had fatal results.

Papian and Ginger Root fit much more with the theme of colon cleansing and digestive health. Papian is quite helpful in the digestive process as it furthers the breakdown of food, allowing it to pass through the intestines and colon more smoothly. Ginger Root has a similar function. It also has positive effects on the circulatory system; it improves blood flow, lowers blood pressure and helps in reducing cholesterol. The two most unusual substances found in Bromacleanse are Acidophilus & Bifidobacterum, which are the probiotics I mentioned earlier. From the research I've read, they have a great effect on the entire digestive process. They increase the amount of natural acids the body produces which makes it harder for harmful bacteria in the colon to survive. Acidophilus also greatly helps in the digestion of dairy products, and this can help relieve bloating, abdominal pain and is somewhat helpful in relieving irritable bowel syndrome.

There are a lot of beneficial, health boosting ingredients in Bromacleanse. Absent however were some of the most standard ingredients in a colon cleanser. A fiber, usually high grade psyllium husk, is needed to remove all of the built up waste that has been compacted in the colon. Although the site acknowledges the problems of this waste the supplement does not appear to be able to remove it. Also absent was the natural laxative which greatly helps while cleansing. For this reason I would not so much label Bromacleanse as a colon cleanser but rather a supplement to support digestive health with some weight loss benefits.
