Question about Dr. Natura's pictures - Alternative Medicine Message Board

For those of you that have seen the pictures on his website, is that supposed to be a tape worm or just gunk that has built up in the walls of the intestines? The reason I ask is because I will occassionally pass something that has a rubbery texture and is about 5" long. I had seen Dr. Natura's website several years ago, so when this started happening, I mentioned it to my Dr. and she had me do a parasite test (Yuck!). It came back negative. Later on I mentioned it to another Dr. and he had me repeat the parasite test, but it still came back negative. I've taken ParaGone, which I got from the health food store, but will occassionally see the same thing.

Some people have said it might be a sac that a parasite built for itself to live in. It is more likely the shedding of the lining of the intestines which renew itself every 3 to 4 days. If severely backed up, this lining might not be able to shed normally, or at least pull away and leave the body.

I did the Cleanse Smart brand and was "disappointed" that nothing like that came out. I'm curious about the pictures too, and hope nothing like that is stuck in me. Would like to do the Dr Natura cleanse but it's such a drag to use mail orders and pay high delivery/duty costs.
