Summary: Headaches and nausea
Comment: I am on my third and last day of this product. Since day one I have been experiencing headaches and by day two the nausea set in. I almost got sick this morning when I decided I had enough. I haven't been able to sleep because of the nausea and restlesness. This is my first cleansing product and I regret not doing more research before buying it.

Summary: THIS IS AN EFFECTIVE PRODUCT IF USED AND UNDERSTOOD CORRECTLY
Comment: I was really surprised by the negative reviews. I have been using supplements for many years now and the renew first cleanse and cleanse smart have been part of that discipline.
I am a wife and mom, therapist, fitness instructor and overall health food enthusiast. I have done extensive research on many different antioxidants, herbs, minerals and whole foods with healing properties. I do believe these renew life products are beneficial to the body and facilitate holistic cleansing. (I can only comment on the first cleanse and cleanse smart formulas because these are the only ones I use, but I have been using them literally for years with good results)
I really think the key here is understanding what cleansing is all about. These formulas are not about traditional colon flushing. In fact, the evening formula, focused on the colon specifically, does not use any of the more typical yet more harsh laxative herbs that most colon cleansers use-- like psyllium husk, cascara sagrata, senna, etc.-- which are good if you are really constipated, but many people find too strong unless in small doses. It does use magnesium hydroxide (think milk of magnesia) which is a naturally occurring mineral, an antacid which also increases water in the intestines. It is an important mineral for the body, especially the muscles and nerves. It CAN have a laxative effect-- causing diarrhea in some people--which in turn causes cramping due to loss of potassium. If you add potassium (eat a banana or two perhaps) the cramping subsides-- and taking one pill every other day until your system finds the right dosage should eliminate the diarrhea.
The dosage in the cleanse smart (2 capsules) is less than half of the other ingredients and also a little over half the DV for magnesium for a day. It is a relatively small amount--nonetheless, you CAN overdose on it in very large quantities, and you dont want to take anything without knowing your body and specific medical needs. I would say to talk to a medical doctor, but most of them simply dismiss herbal supplements without understanding them and prefer processed pharmaceuticals, which, in many people's opinions, clogs your body further! But this, of course, is a personal choice and responsibility.
Cleanse Smart and first cleanse has added aloe, one of the greatest lubricants in nature, and ginger, which is a powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial root to this nighttime colon formula. But even better, it has Triphala, which is an Ayurvedic blend of three (dried) fruits, one to correlate to each dosha and therefore balance the body and encourage homeostasis. It is said to support the entire digestive and gastro intestinal function while strengthening nutritional assimilation.
That is really what cleansing is about on a greater level than just treating constipation. It is about cleansing and nourishing all of the body systems that have been damaged and are malfunctioning due to years of toxic build up. A lot of this is focused in the colon because a blocked colon does not allow for assimilation of nutrients -- this means that if you arent already sort of cleaned out, even the herbs in the cleanse smart formulas will not be as effective.
When I first started out, I used the first cleanse and started making changes to my diet slowly. I waited a week or so and then repeated the first cleanse. Now I use the cleanse smart on a need basis-- when Ive eaten too much or unhealthy food too frequently-- or when I notice I havent had a bowel movement that day. Some days I only take one am pill and one pm pill and Im good.
I especially like the am formula because it has a really great blend of herbs for the other important organs and body systems-- dandelion root is a blood cleanser, milk thistle for the liver, hawthorn berry for the heart, etc. If you just google all of the herbs in the formulas, you will see why I think the products are so great.
If you have not had a good experience with these products, I would say try again with a different understanding of what cleansing is-- a long-term process of eliminating toxic build up and reestablishing homeostasis or equilibrium in the body so that all systems are functioning synergistically. I have tried many products and these are really some of the best for that purpose. But it has to be part of a whole life-style change-- choosing healthier, organic foods more often while reducing chemicals, processed foods, simple white sugars and flours, etc, drinking lots and lots of water, adding antioxidants to prevent further build-up, exercising and relaxing the body-- getting enough sleep, laughter, spiritual nourishment and practice. Cleansing is more than just about taking a few pills and expecting a miracle.

Summary: Patients, please.
Comment: I used the First Cleanse product exactly as directed. I found it worked to my expectations which was that it would gently encourage bowel and other digestive organ elimination. I did not expect to miraculously lose weight or regrow my hair; I did not have unreasonably optimistic expectations.
The purpose of this product is to prepare the body for the more potent, 30-day Cleanse Smart program (which I just started). So if your expectation is to gain the benefits of this program using the two-week First Cleanse product, then surely you will be disappointed.
If the directions are read (and I'm not sure that some of the readers have done so), one would see that for added bowel cleansing, a product called Cleanse Smart (of which a sample was included) should be used to relieve constipation and for added stimulation. In addition, FiberSmart (a soluable/insoluable flax product) should be used to absorb toxins released from the cleanse as well as to provide the mass needed for effective intestinal elimination.
Those who have written saying "they did get the expected results" are probably correct because they didn't read the directions and didn't use the supplementary products recommended. Those who wrote that "they achieved mild results", should realize that is expected since this is a preparatory product for a stronger program; they should now move on to the Cleanse Smart program.
Everyone's body chemistry and balance is different and if the product makes you feel peculiar or dizzy, then it should be stopped (again as directed).
Happy Cleansing!

Summary: Dear Mr/Miss "Other Reviewers Are Wrong".........
Comment: To the reviewer below me, I am not so sure that of all of the reviews, everyone is wrong. I purchased this product because I saw it in a local health store and it seemed to be the only organic cleansing system geared towards first timers and most systems had me nervous that I would not be able to function normally (I.E work) while taking them as they may be too harsh. I am approaching the end of my first week on this product (I did not purchase it from this site and so glad that I didn't because I only paid $12 Plus $1.50 s&h for mine) and have noticed that I have DECREASED bowel movement, which the product explains that this is for first time users who have pretty regular movements per day (I usually have at keast 2). I used to go like clockwork in the mornings and in the evenings. I have been waking up and praying for some activity and I may get one movement a day. I have also added the recommended fiber supplement and made the changes to my diet to organic foods,fiber rich veggies, fish and purified water only (some organic green tea w/honey in the mornings). My stomach actually feels more bloated and gaseous than it ever did before. I would not recommend this product for first timers or anyone else. I guess it could be worse. I could have paid $25 bucks for it.

Summary: Was I dying or was it just a side effect?
Comment: Last night, (day 2) I woke up to the most TERRIBLE AND frightening pain I have ever experienced. My stomach suddenly cramped up and I could not move. This had happened all night! It was so painful and I must relate it to the First Cleanse pills. I also feel bloated and am extremely disspoainted with this medicine. I don't know what else to take but I have had less bowel movements than I NORMALLY DO!!
Awfull stuff!
