This paper discusses concerns with specific approaches in identifying and eliminating gastrointestinal (GI) pathogens, as well as detoxifying toxic metals, that may be misleading and harmful to a patient's health. These are non-scientific methods that claim to improve GI microbial balance and mineral nutritional status that persist in the nutritional and natural medicine market, and unfortunately many are actively promoted through specific products and protocols marketed by nutritional supplement companies that should know better. The potential toxicity and mucosal damage of the long-term use of aggressive laxative herbs such as Cascara sagrada, rhubarb and/or Senna, as well as potential adverse events from ingredients containing fulvic acids and/or humic acids are discussed.
本文讨论了在识别和消除胃肠道（GI）病原体以及对有毒金属进行解毒方面的特定方法所存在的问题，这些方法可能会误导患者并对其健康有害。这些是非科学方法，声称可改善胃肠道微生物平衡和矿物质营养状况，它们在营养和天然药物市场中依然存在，不幸的是，许多此类方法通过营养补充剂公司推销的特定产品和方案得到积极推广，而这些公司本应更了解情况。文中还讨论了长期使用诸如神圣大黄、大黄和/或番泻叶等强效泻药草药的潜在毒性和黏膜损伤，以及含有富里酸和/或腐殖酸成分的潜在不良事件。
