ColonEaze~Move is a stool softener that relieves constipation and improves intestinal muscle tone and peristalsis. Specially formulated to be gentle yet effective for people with sensitive gut.
If you’ve read my book Listen To Your Colon, you know why soluble fiber is preferable to insoluble fiber. It helps maintain regularity, along with gentle but potent herbs (Indian sarsparilla root, artichoke leaf extract, dandelion root, haritaki) to stimulate detoxification and support the liver and kidneys (which are stressed during constipation).
The majority of the soluble fiber in ColonEaze~Move comes from organic psyllium seed powder; with a smaller amount of organic psyllium husk. Why? Because many people with sensitive guts may experience irritation if they eat a lot of psyllium husk, but psyllium seeds are fine for them (and help). These are very different parts of the plant that have different effects on the intestines – so it is important to find the right ratio.
Psyllium replenishes stool (draws/holds water if your stool is too hard), exercises the colon, balances peristaltic rhythm, helps produce butyrate (anti-inflammatory for the gut), while also serving as food for probiotics. All of this helps maintain the integrity of the colon lining. Because of psyllium’s ability to bulk up stool, it is also a valuable detoxifying agent, helping to eliminate toxins, dying substances, or dead pathogens.
Available as a loose powder that you can add to water or diluted fruit juice.
Dosage: Mix 1-3 teaspoons with 8-16 ounces (1-2 cups) of water or diluted fruit juice 1-3 times per day. Stir vigorously and drink immediately. Start with half a teaspoon and gradually increase the amount. Best taken on an empty stomach, preferably first thing in the morning and before going to bed. Be sure to drink another cup (8 ounces) of water after dosing.
Take it at the same time of day to promote regular bowel movements. If you want to have a bowel movement in the morning, take ColonEaze~Move before bed (on an empty stomach). When you find yourself need help to stimulate bowel movementsWith ColonEaze~Move you can take 250-500 mg of magnesium citrate, up to a maximum of 1000 mg per day.
If you want to increase the effects, you can do this by either increasing the amount taken or increasing the frequency of dosing.
So that means you should increase to 1.5 teaspoons or 1 tablespoon every morning and see how your body reacts. Or you can take 1 teaspoon in the morning and 1 teaspoon in the afternoon. People have used up to 2 tablespoons per dosage. You may want to increase the dose slowly and find the dosage/frequency that works best for your individual body.
There are no known contraindications to long-term use of ColonEaze, but as your gut health and diet improve, you may not need to take it every day or may want to reduce the dosage, etc.
*NOTE: ColonEaze is a dietary supplement consisting of a herbal blend and the % DV is based on children ages 4 and up. We are not aware of any health risks, but you can always contact your doctor if you have any concerns.
However, keep in mind that ColonEaze~Move is designed to address the underlying issues related to constipation (along with taking probiotics). Therefore, over time, you should be able to reduce the amount of magnesium you use to normal supplement levels. 125-250 mg of magnesium citrate per day is considered normal magnesium supplementation.

NOTE: 1.84% of women over 60 have heart palpitations caused by psyllium. Either due to an allergic reaction or because psyllium slows the digestion/absorption of carbohydrates, resulting in low blood sugar and increased heart rate.
