Coffee
enemas have been used for over a hundred years as a generalized
detoxification procedure. Despite rumors to the contrary,
coffee enemas are perfectly safe when taken as directed.
Coffee enemas stimulate the liver and gallbladder to release
stored toxins and wastes enhancing liver function.
When received, cut off end tip of tube that comes with enema
bag, and attach the colon tube for proper functioning.
Note:
A douche bag with an enema attachment can be used with the
colon tube, but I found that I like to have a clear bag to
check the flow of the coffee and the correct amount of liquid
for each enema. The enema bag, available at Inner
Focus Healing Center, is marked with amount lines such
as a measuring cup would be marked.
KY Jelly - to lubricate colon tube for easy insertion Organic Coffee
Reverse Osmosis Water or Spring Water
Procedure: Unless otherwise specified, it is recommended each person
take the enema each morning. If you are feeling especially
toxic, a second enema can be performed in the late afternoon.
It
is recommended that you prepare a quart of coffee, using 2 tablespoons
of coffee per quart. The water should be purified with the reverse
osmosis filtration unit. If you do not have such a unit, store bought
spring water will suffice. Of course, organically grown coffee is
best for this procedure. We've found organic coffee at Trader Joe's
at reasonable prices.
The
coffee should be made in a stainless steel or glass coffee-maker.
Aluminum is not recommended, since aluminum is a toxic metal and
can leach into the coffee while perking. You should add one tablespoon
of unsulfered blackstrap molasses (un-sulfered if have sulfur allergy)
to each quart of coffee, while the coffee is hot. The molasses aids
in retaining the enemas and also increases the efficiency of detoxification.
It is acceptable to make the coffee the night before use allowing
the coffee to cool. The coffee is best used at body temperature.
If it cools too much overnight, reheat slightly before using.
When
preparing to take the enema, lie on your left side and lubricate
using KY jelly or similar substance. Insert colon tube slowly about
12-18 inches into the rectum. If it kinks, pull back and try again
as kinking will block flow of coffee.
Release
the stopper and let about a pint of coffee slowly flow in, then
reclamp. If the coffee won't flow, this usually means there is a
kink in the tube, and you must withdraw the colon tube and reinsert.
At first, it may be difficult to retain the enema, but we usually
recommend holding the coffee about ten minutes before expelling.
Repeat
the enema, holding for another ten minutes.
At
first, you may feel slightly jittery, although most patients find
the enemas relaxing. Usually, the jitteriness lessens after about
the third enema. If the jitteriness continues, this means you are
making the coffee too
strong.
