Enemas have been around for a long time. They used to be done regularly in the 40s and 50s. There wasn’t a second thought about it. So why did we stop?
I have read about all I can handle on the topic. Considering I have cancer in my body I figured I have absolutely nothing to loose.
I was recommended to do coffee enemas as a daily routine, like brushing your teeth… but listen to your body and see what works for you. I find every 4-7 days works for me, and I am looking into doing enemas other than coffee. I am on a high fibre diet that keeps things moving very well but there are times when doing the enema really helps. At the beginning I wanted to get my system as clear as can be so I started off doing a coffee enema every day for 10 days.
Truthfully, after doing them, I couldn’t see life without them.
The moment I don’t feel well from something I ate, I do an enema. 99% of the time they do the trick and save me from feeling terrible.
My advice to you: Your sick right? Well there is a reason you are sick and you need to clear out your already overloaded system. Especially, if you have undergone surgeries and are on medications.
For as long as you are on medication I would eat a high fibre plant based diet and do enemas.
The enema basically works to purge your bowel and keep things flowing, helping remove toxins stored in your organs. I do not want to develop fatty liver disease from the medication I need to take for the next 10 years, so I do them to help my liver remove the excess. A really helpful tool is intermitted fasting in conjunction with enemas and high fibre diet which helps me have 2-3 bowel movements per day. The fasting and clearing helps give your body time to heal and focus on other things than just processing food.
Your essential EMEMA list:
- Coffee enema bag or bucket with silicone tubing
- Organic coffee or another substance of your choice
- Distilled or reverse osmosis water only (do not use tap water or plain filtered water)
- Towel to lay on
- Modified citrus pectin or unsweetened coconut water (potassium)
- Juicer & greens or Dynamic Greens wheatgrass
- Food grad clay: Bentonite, green or diatomaceous earth to soak up any toxin
- A good probiotic – 14 strains with spores, I used this: BioKult
- Psyllium husks or high fibre diet
- Tiny amount of coconut oil in small cup
- Chamomile tea in the winter to help relax the bowel and peppermint tea in the summer
At the start you will want to do this everyday. Choose a time period that works for you. I suggest a minimum of 3 days but 10 to 14 days is ideal. You should aim to do this regularly, like once a week thereafter. It is best to do this in the morning after your first bowel movement and also not to do too much that day, you could feel tired after the enema or energized, but better to take it easy on the days you do them.
Before your morning enema:
- Brush your teeth
- Drink hot water with lemon
- Hopefully have a bowel movement before doing the coffee enema
- Drink 1 tsp of clay before doing the enema
Doing your enema:
- Boil water 1/2 litre and add with 1 tsp of organic coffee in french press. Let sit for 15 mins or longer.
- Add room temperature water to reach about 1 litre. The mixture should end up being body temperature. This is very important for the body to tolerate the enema. You can tell it’s body temperature, if when you put your finger in the mixture you cannot tell the difference, the water neither feels hot or cold.
- Prepare and clean the enema bag or stainless steel bucket. If it is your first time using the bag make sure you air out the bag before use. They tend to have a toxic smell. Pour warm water with vinegar through the bag and tube several times to clean.
- Place towel on bathroom floor. In small cup add just a little coconut oil to lubricate the tip of the enema tube for easier insertion.
- Hang the enema bag/ bucket high enough so the end of the tube can lay on the floor. Making sure the line is locked or closed on the tube, pour coffee into bag or bucket.
- Get into the fetal position on the floor (I prefer laying on my left side), place tip of tube into oil and gently insert. The inserted area should face towards your navel.
- Release the lock on the tube. You should not feel cold or hot fluid enter your bowel, but neutral.
- Let the coffee slowly enter your bowel. The slower the better and the longer you will be able to hold it.
- When you feel the urge to go, go.
- You ideally want to hold the coffee enema 15 minutes or longer, which is impossible at the beginning, but after a month you will have no problem.
- Clean up and shower.
- Rinse the enema bag/bucket and tube, with warm water with vinegar.
- Note: If you finish the enema and you feel ill do another one.
After the enema:
- Take 1 probiotic immediately or add one to your enema
- Drink modified citrus pectin or unsweetened coconut water (potassium)
Rest of the day:
- Drink 8oz of green juice or 4-5 cubes of wheatgrass
- Have psyllium husks or high fibre diet with 2 litres of water
- Drink tea and relax
Important Notes:
Sometimes the urge to release the coffee enema will be so strong you cannot hold it for even 10 seconds. What I suggest is if you have taken in the entire coffee enema and released it too rapidly, then have body temperature water on standby and repeat. This will help your body release more than it might have and you could be left feeling ill, if you don’t release a good amount. If you feel ill after your enema, do another one: it means you didn’t release everything and you end up feeling toxic afterwards.
You can also get back pain after a coffee enema. This could be attributed to your kidney’s. I would drink unsweetened cranberry juice and teas to help flush the kidney’s and avoid using coffee in the enema for sometime. Try chamomile tea instead, it is antibacterial and has a good effect on the bowel. Listen to your body at all times and only do what is absolutely necessary. With everything in life, keep it in moderation.
