Re: OT Vitamin E enemas/suppositories?

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the links, Mara. I'm still pretty confused though. The

directions on the link didn't seem really clear enough for me. If

anyone on here has actually done a vitamin E enema/suppository, do you

think you could email me offlist and tell me exactly what you do? I

realize this is off topic.. Thanks so much, I feel really stuck =(

Peace =)

I think it's pretty much mix 4000 IUs of 100% natural vitamin E (

NOW brand is acceptable) with

1.5 Tablespoons water into something you can use for enemas

(he suggests an ear cleaning bulb thingy - which I have no visual

correspondence for - but I wonder if you can simply empty out a

fleet enema plastic bottle) and insert rectally before bed or at a time

when a BM is not imminent. Continue to lie on your side for at

least 5 minutes, allowing the enema to spread through the rectal

area and colon. And to combine it with the diet he lays out there,

which contains vegetable fiber and some grains - though no gluten.

He also says not to combine it with fruit. He also says that the

SCD is counterindicated for the procedure - which I had not seen

before today - probably because it allows too many fruits.

To get the vitamin E, you have to puncture geltabs containing

4000 IUs of vitamin E oil (preferably 4 x 1000) and squeeze.

He also suggests working up to 4000 for a few days - but says

that for him the procedure didn't work noticeably until he hit

4000.

There are also some academic studies cited in the post and the

comments.
