Sonnes No 9 Intestinal Cleanser is a powdered, ready-to-drink formula used to loosen debris and toxins from the colon, which can help aid in the detoxification of the colon. Like most colon cleansers, Sonnes contains blond psyllium seed, which they claim helps remove toxins from the walls of the colon. They only require you to "drink" the substance once daily, however, and claim it is especially effective when combined with their Sonnes No 7 Detoxficant formula.

What ingredients are in Sonnes No 9 Intestinal Cleanser? Sonnes No 9 Intestinal Cleanser contains psyllium seed and husk plantago ovato blond, soy flour and magnesium trisilicate.

Do the ingredients in Sonnes No 9 Intestinal Cleanser help cleanse the colon? There isn't any definite proof it can. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), blond psyllium husk is considered "likely effective" for the treatment of constipation, a digestive disorder, but only primarily affects the bowel, not the colon. It's only considered effective for this condition, also--it's never been clinically shown to affect the toxin levels in the colon, and may be ineffective for this purpose. Many health experts say claims that it can eliminate toxins aren't true, and even say these claims could be misleading.

Is Sonnes No 9 Intestinal Cleanser safe? Although there have been few side effects reported, it can decrease the efficacy of some drugs, including estrogenic and diabetes medications. It can also pose a serious choking risk, especially for those with swallowing disorders.

Verdict: As a reliever of constipation, this product could be potentially effective. This isn't a very effective supplement for colon cleansing, however.
