Men's 7 Day Cleanse
The Vitamin Shoppe
Overview
The effectiveness of this product is questionable due to significant issues with proprietary blends and potentially underdosed ingredients. While many of the individual components have established benefits, their quantities in the proprietary blends cannot be verified against research-backed effective doses, making it difficult to ascertain actual efficacy. The inclusion of senna, a stimulant laxative, will likely induce bowel movements, but this should not be confused with comprehensive detoxification or overall improved digestive function.
The Good
Provides a blend of soluble and insoluble fibers for general digestive support, though likely underdosed.
Includes a probiotic strain (Bacillus Coagulans BC30) which supports gut health.
Contains Zinc at a 100% Daily Value, beneficial for immune function and general health.
The Bad
Reliance on proprietary blends prevents verification of effective dosages for most ingredients.
Senna extract, a stimulant laxative, can lead to laxative dependency and electrolyte imbalances with prolonged or frequent use.
Many herbal ingredients in the 'Herbal Detox Blend' are likely present in sub-therapeutic amounts.
