Let me start by saying that I AM NOT A REP! And not looking for business or anything.
Someone approached me regarding isagenix cleanse and vitamin program.
Has anyone tried this to help their guts? Did it work?

Hello - trying to resurrect this post! Has anyone with a jopouch tried Isagenix and what was your experience? I am 5 months post takedown and really struggling with nutrition - I cannot tolerate vegetables or fruits so know that I am not getting it from my diet. I am battling chronic pouchitis at the moment that we are trying to control. Wanted to understand if anyone has used Isagenix and how it went. Thank you!
I know this is an old post but I use the shakes for nutrition and just to feel better and hydrate. I find they’re not sugary sweet like Boost or Ensure and I tolerate them better. I take half doses and I find I just feel better. Less butt burn. Less gas, not running for bathroom every half hour, which I do after eating.. I have been using them off and on for 5 years. Wish it wasnt so pricy but by using half doses it helps. Have you been using it ? Does it help anyone else?
I haven’t! I was curious about it for weight loss as I have trouble in that area. Haha. I was concerned with changing my diet so drastically and how it would affect my pouch. Fast forward to now and I’m losing weight was faster than I should due to some abdominal abscesses than make it hard to eat so no longer an issue currently but am still curious. I didn’t want to spend a heck load of money and then realize it isn’t good for people with our guts! Thanks for the feedback 
I used Isagenix for about a year, about three years after I had my jpouch. It was great for protein and weight loss, but like any shake supp., with a jpouch, it went right through me and I'd pass it within two hours, and it usually was a couple trips to the bathroom. I did not, however, EVER do a cleanse day. I felt like it would be too much for my pouch. I took a shot of the cleanse liquid every night instead. I al so did NOT use the magnesium, unnecessary with a pouch. I did use the metabolism accelerator supplement, which did not increase bathroom trips. I'm actually abaout to start it again!
Hi KellyParr, can I ask ehy yiu dont take the magnesium? I dont use Isogenix (infact no idea what it is), but i do take magnesium capsules and protein powders post workouts to help with muscle recovery. I have been recently having huge issues with my jpouch and am currently undergoing investigations. Have just completed a 2 week course of Cipro/Metronidazole which helped alot. I have had to drop my trainings due to being unwell and am gaining weight. I would love any suggestions on dietary supplements.

I would be interested in your regime and results. The shakes do go right thru me do you use them anyway? I want to use sone system for nutrition and weightloss.
I used the shakes and they went right thru me as well. I think too much sugar? I have used other shakes that did not do that. My rep said to try non-dairy. I dont like auto ship either. They dont make it very easy to purchase and its expensive
