Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Colonics are super enemas, done by a licensed person. Always make sure they use purified water. It doesn't hurt. You just lie down (only slightly indignant) and water is moved in and out of your bowel, gently, and the gunk comes out through a pump. People who do this are really into it, so the pumps and tubes they use are clear. That is so you can see all the " shit " , literally, coming through. They ah and uh at everything coming out. You feel cleaner, and definitely lighter. There is a rap about build-up of gunk on the sides of your intestines, like tar-y stuff that comes with years of bad eating. Technically, I've heard it's never been proven. MD's will tell you that people who are autopsied don't have any gunk build-up. But if you read a natural eater like Ehret Mucusless Diet, he'll have you squirming at the thought of tary intestines inside of you and you'll run out for a series of colonics. I think they're nice; kind of like getting a facial. But not essential. If you fast for extended periods they are necessary, because then toxins are released into your system, and it's helps the body move the toxins out faster. But I don't think fasting and AP go together. Hope this wasn't too graphic a description. ---------- >From: Sharon.Ali-Mohamed@... >leslie@... >Subject: RE: rheumatic Diet >Date: Fri, Mar 10, 2000, 9:18 PM > >can you tell me a little bit about the colonics. > >Sharon > > Re: rheumatic Diet >>Date: Fri, Mar 10, 2000, 12:31 AM >> > >> I think diet does effect RA, for instance i discovered wheat caused me to >>flare, so a elimimation diet is good thing to try.
