Hello List..

To, Saul Pressman

I've read your very impressive book.

I have a question about the real possibility of coffee entering the

blood stream via the colon tissue.

People with atrial fibrillation can not ingest caffeine!

I see nothing in your book that speaks of answering this question.

Thanks

Larry

Dear Larry,

I don't see what could prevent it.

The Gerson clinic is the expert opinion in the field.

Contact them and ask.

Best of Health!

Peggy,

There are a number of holistic types that recommend coffee enemas for

liver detoxification. A couple things to remember. Coffee will pull

potassium out of the body. I have read of at least one person that

had died from excessive potassium loss due to overdoing it with coffee

enemas. Also, coffee will leave the colon environment in a slightly

alkaline condition. The colon is, or should be, slightly acidic.

Acidophilous resides primarily in the colon and as the name implies,

it loves acid.

Do not do back to back coffee enemas and do not retain longer than the

recommended 20 minutes, really screws up the electrolyte levels

(speaking from personal experience here). I don't want to scare you

off from doing your own experimentation with it. Take it easy and you

have nothing to worry about. You may want to discuss it with your

doctor, assuming he is open to alternative health options.

Rather than go with canned coffee, buy whole beans and grind them

yourself in a blender.

All the best,

Jim

I have used the coffee enemas. Have they helped? I have no idea. I

don't really feel different after anything I try. The theory behind

them sounds good in that detoxifying the liver should help. I don't do

them much as of all the time preparation involved.

I do these all the time..it is easy:

BASIC DIRECTIONS

(1) Boil 1 quart/1 liter water, with 3 rounded tablespoons of freshly ground

coffee. Use only filtered, purified or distilled water, not tap water.

Do

not use a coffee maker. Use only organically grown, non-decaffeinated

coffee beans. Store coffee beans in the freezer to retain freshness.

(2) Allow coffee to boil for 5-15 min, to evaporate the oils.

(3) Let cool to body temp.

(4) Strain, using a fine-mesh stainless steel tea strainer(it looks like

screen

wire) to strain out the grounds, leaving the " silt " . Since many of the

beneficial elements for detoxification in the coffee are fiber-bound, it

isn't a good idea to use a paper strainer, or even a cloth,unless it's

got

a fairly coarse weave.

(5) Filtered water may be added back to make one full quart. Using an enema

bag,

insert coffee mixture into rectum. Lie on your right side for 15 min

with knees toward your chest, breathing deeply.

(6) Evacuate bowels.

Dear Patty,

Thanks for that 'recipe'.

I am curious as to the reason for lying on the right side.

The sigmoid colon goes up and to the left side. In order not to have the

colon shift towards the center, and possibly close the intestine off, I was

told to always lie on the left side.

Do you have contrary info?

Best of Health!

Dr. Pressman,

This question is on the Gerson site:

http://www.gerson.com/questions/answer/properposition.htm

What is the proper position to use while taking an enema?

There is some controversy about the best position for taking an enema, as

conventional protocol is backwards from Dr. Gerson's instructions. Most

doctors and nurses are taught to have the patient lie on the left side while

taking their enema. Dr. Gerson insisted that the best position was for the

patient to lie on their right side, legs comfortably pulled up, relaxed, and

breathing deeply.

Lying on the right side allowed gravity to assist in passing the coffee flow

past the descending colon, just around the " corner " of the splenic flexure

and into the transverse colon for higher penetration and better release of

toxic wastes.

Coffee enemas are " brew it yourself. " There is more information about them

Thanks, Peggy. The Gerson therapy looks like something I want to

Wouldn't an oil and lemon juice gall bladder purge be a simpler way to clear the

gall bladder of gall stones and bile?

Zlad

coffee enemas

Hi all,

I urge everyone for coffee enemas,especially the ones with high toxicity or

liver gall bladder problems. I am having great benefits with it.It is even good

if you get a cold.(helps by decreasing the toxic load so that your body can

handle other toxins).The aim is using it as liver support not for bowel

emptying.Only sigmoid part of the colon needs to be filled for that purpose.

About 2 cups of solution per practice is fine.One should lie on right side not

move much not to move the solution to small intestines.(That is the way I read

and it works fine with me) . If it moves into small intestines you get

stimulated and there is no need for that. Just stimulating the liver so that

toxic bile dump is initiated.2 times 2 cups of solution is fine.One may start

with one tablespoon of coffee and increase the dosage until emptying of gall

bladder is felt while lying down. You also see some dark green residues in

toilet after the procedure which I believe are toxic bile.If you feel stimulated

that means you have either used too much coffee or solution passed to small

intestines.I boil the coffee water solution for about 2 to 5 minutes and let it

cool down.Solution should not be too warm. Just at body temperature or cooler.

Intestines are sensitive to high temperatures.

Just wished to share.

p.s. I may not be able to answer my posts..

best regards.

Nil

[Guest guest]

Thanks for pointing that out. I use that,too, but there are some

differances. I somehow found it easier to do.Felt much better in some

ways. Hard to explain.Coffee enema also stimulates intestines and

helps to get some of the debris out.It could be why I felt good

afterwards.I think both are helpful.

Thanks

[Guest guest]

Nil, Do you have to clean out the entire large bowel(colon) before you

do the coffee?

Regards, Don

With coffee enemas, some caffeine would be absorbed through the

intestines. You wouldn't have to get a caffeine " buzz " to have enough

to create adrenal problems. Caffeine in any amount can be risky for

adrenal function, and I would think it would be risky for those of us

with thyroid issues. Some people are affected by it more than others.

See " Caffeine Blues: Wake up to the Hidden Dangers of America's #1

Drug, " by Cherniske, http://www.amazon.com/Caffeine-Blues-

Hidden-Dangers-Americas/dp/0446673919/ref=sr_1_1?

ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1224795985 & sr=8-1

It's possible to cleanse the colon without coffee enemas. High doses

of magnesium will do it. So will high doses of vitamin C (to bowel

tolerance). Ingesting small amounts of castor oil will also do it.

And gentle herbal products like Triphala can help keep the bowels

cleared without resorting to coffee enemas.

Barbara

I don't think enough gets in to the blood stream from what I have read

to make a difference. They don't bother me. I do not get a " buzz "

from them at all.

Re: Iodomere>

Hello, you mention coffee enemas, I did them for years when I did the

Gerson Therapy. I have heard some say they can deplete the adrenals,

has anyone ever heard that this can happen?

[Guest guest]

As with everything you have to decide what is best for yourself. There are

things that coffee enemas do that are not accomplished with other methods of

flushing the colon. I have used this when my adrenals were struggling with

no issues. I think like anything you will get pros and cons of utilizing

the protocol.

Coffee enemas are not for cleansing the colon, although they do that to. How they work is, the caffeine is absorbed thru the portal vein to the liver, the liver immediately then starts to dump toxins. They were added to Dr Max Gersons Cancer therapy in the 1940's when he realized he was losing cancer patients, not from cancer, but from the cancer breaking down so fast that the body couldn’t not keep up with getting rid of those toxins. The coffee enemas are a time old remedy for helping the liver cleanse. However, I do wonder if they are done long enough , what effect if any they would have on the adrenals; perhaps none at all, I am just not sure. Kathleen

[Guest guest]

Thank you for adding that Kathleen. I do mine for my liver issues. I have been feeling like there is a tennis ball under my rib cage. I did the coffee enema and the feeling is gone. Ever since RAI my liver cops an attitude and doesn't keep moving.

Hulda e's liver cleanse works well without the potential

complications of flooding the system with caffeine.

See http://www.curezone.com/cleanse/liver/huldas_recipe.asp. I've

done these cleanses a number of times with good results. Personally

I would never do a coffee enema myself, because of the potential

risks from the caffeine exposure. I think there's too much " flogging

the adrenals " involved. But as says, everyone has to find

what works for them.

I get a " tennis ball under my rib cage " feeling on the left side,

where it would be spleen enlargement. (Right side would be liver,

and I've never had it on that side.) When that happens, I skip

iodine for a few days and it goes away. I assume it is related to

too rapidly detoxifying in a way that affects my spleen more than the

liver.

Do you mean taking it orally? I thought the idea of the enema was to

clear out the liver not just to clean out the bowels.

I need to know,

Why would you do a coffee enema? Its bad enough with water????

How many times a day do you do this?

Is it coffee made of water? or coffee grounds/Beans?

I am Dead serious, I need to know, maybe I would benefit from this,
