Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 Deb, It is very important that if you do the coffee enema, you do it right. Two important things you must remember: The coffee must be organic. The coffee must NOT be decaffeinated. (It is the caffeine that expands the bile ducts so that toxins can be removed.) The directions for this important detox tool are in the files, but I will post them for you again. I know how silly the whole thing sounds! When my naturopath first suggested coffee enemas to me I thought he was nuts. I told him no, forget it. But after I did more research on them I realized how beneficial they could be, and my husband and I have talked to other doctors about them, we both do them quite regularly. Here are the directions: NOTE: It is a good idea to start with a warm water enema first, to remove the wastes present and ready to be eliminated. Then follow with the coffee enema for full benefit. BASIC DIRECTIONS (1) Boil 1 quart/1 liter water, with 3 rounded tablespoons of freshly ground coffee in non-metal pan (I use glass)over med heat. 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. Additional comments on the coffee enema: "Gerson knew that the coffee enema dilated the bile ducts and caused a flushing of toxic bile from the liver. (Drinking coffee constricts the bile ducts). He also knew that this was the most effective method for detoxification. Since Gerson's time various active ingredients in coffee have been identified and most interestingly, the palmitates present in coffee increase the binding of toxic elements by the bile 7-fold and this enzyme-enhancing ability in the liver and small intestine does not allow reabsorption of the toxic bile. Most cholerectic herbs do not ensure this complete removal of toxins but only an increase in bile flow. In order to assist detoxification I often recommend the coffee enema. They guard against a toxic build-up that can make you feel so dreadful and in this way help the body to heal. It is important to remember that the coffee enemas go hand-in-hand with the juices: no enemas - no juices and no juices - no enemas. The juices will remove toxicity from the tissues and the coffee enema ensures its removal to the outside. If used without the juices they will ultimately have a depleting effect on nutrients. The rule of thumb is - 3 juices (3 x 250mls) per coffee enema. If you increase the juices then you can safely increase the enemas." From "Detoxing and the Flagging Liver(part 2 of 3)by (From Gerson Healing Newsletter Vol. 15, No. 3, May-June, 2000) http://www.gerson.org/healing/articles/nl_detoxingliver.htm QUESTION: How does coffee taken orally differ from taking it as a rectal enema? ANSWER: Coffee taken by mouth is a vasoconstrictor causing capillary and bile duct constriction. Drinking coffee is damaging to the stomach due to the aromatic fatty acids (which are not absorbed through the colon since the aromatics are boiled off in the "coffee enema recipe" preparation). Drinking coffee is an artificial stimulant and appetite suppressant as well as creating a more acidic environment in the body which is counter productive to healing. When taking the coffee enema, the caffeine and other components act to relax and open the bile ducts releasing toxins (as much as seven times the normal rate) from the liver. The glutathione-S transferase system is activated as well to enhance the functions of the immune system. Simply put, one is health giving and on is not. Choose the "coffee break" that is cleansing and supportive. Thousands of people have found this to be true. The coffee enema is also an excellent method for pain relief that is caused by toxic build up in the liver and colon. Remember, Dr. Gerson first developed his Therapy to cure his migraine headaches. However, a word of caution: any more than one coffee enema a day should be taken with sufficient juices and supplements to maintain a healthy balance in the body. Dr. Gerson spent many years developing a safe and effective therapy that requires some attention and study by the users. Still have questions?

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 Deb, try to use organic regular coffee-non decaf -no instant either (as decaf is terrible , they use all sorts of solvents to get the caffeine out) I go according to my book " Prescription for Nutritional healing" Place 2 Quarts of steam distilled water in a pot with 6 heaping tblspoons of coffee, boil for 15 min, let cool to room temp. Use one pint, save the other in the fridge. Place in enema bag, lubricate tip with vitamin e, and assume position (ha ha). Once in, (they say best position is "head down, rear up" )roll over to your right hand side, and stay that way, holding solution for 15 min, massaging the abdomen. Do not roll side to side. Expel, and be on your way. It took a few times for me to train myself to hold it for that long, but I can now. Good luck ! ----- Original Message ----- From: debsings04 Sent: Sunday, February 15, 2004 8:19 PM Subject: about detoxing Hello saline support,It will be one week tomorrow since explant.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 , good Lord,so now are you a pro or what at enemas? ha ha. How often do you do this? Sounds like putting on lipstick or something. I dislike enemas severly. Well, really I'm not worried about my incision healing. I'm concerned about the sutures. Do they stay in or dissolve. This is really bugging me. Maybe he did tell me what to do and I didn't hear him or don't remember?

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 I buy my organic coffee at Wild Oats. I buy whatever is on sale, but the name that comes to mind is Green Mountain. The regular price is about $9.99 a pound. I also found organic coffee at Trader Joe's. It just says organic coffee, and it is pretty cheap, like $6.99 for a 16 ounce can, I think. I found it at 's too, also cheap at $6.99 a pound. You just have to keep your eyes open to find it at stores, or go where you know they carry organic stuff. Sorry I couldn't help you more! If you need to buy it off the internet, just do a search on "organic coffee" and I am sure you will find plenty of sources. Hope this helps! Patty ----- Original Message ----- From: Debbie B.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 I hate enema's! I Don’t ever dispute that! But I hate the thought of all this crap in my system even further, so I got used to it. my hubby even did one last week (and he is your tried and true Italian man-"nothing goes near there" thing) and said it wasn’t bad at all. real, I cant believe all the things I do now. I have often laughed that the implants really in the end, caused me to be healthier, all the wiser, and Ill probably live longer from my lifestyle change because of them. So I guess with all, there is some good. You always learn on journeys, as my grandma says. I had my sutures removed two weeks later. So did most the gals here, if I recall correctly. Call and ask the office. I am sure you need them removed. ----- Original Message ----- From: Debbie B.
