Colon Therapy Update

[Guest guest]

Hi all--I've now completed three colonics in three weeks. The last

time was especially thorough, b/c the colon therapist knew I

couldn't afford to come again for a long while. I've also continued

taking aloe vera juice and magnesium citrate w/ Vitamin C (about

1000 mg. per day, broken into a pre-breakfast and a pre-bedtime

dose). I also have been taking her recommended probiotic, iFlora,

but now I've run out and cannot afford more, thanks to the huge

purchase of our Jersey cow. I am praying that drinking lots of

kefir will make up for it!

What a miracle this has been! Whereas before I absolutely could not

go to the bathroom without the help of an enema--and then the enemas

just started returning water and no poop, I am now going to the

bathroom quickly and comfortably 2-3 times per day! I HEARTILY

recommend seeing a colon therapist! The process is very clean and

modest and mostly comfortable.

Several nights I've tried her suggestion of rubbing castor oil on my

tummy (the intestines run from just above your pubic bone to just

under your ribs and from side-to-side)and then covering it with an

old cotton t-shirt and a 2 qt. hot water bottle. I spend a few

minutes massaging clock-wise from my lower-right side up and across

and then down to the lower-left side, and then I just go to sleep on

my back, with the hot water bottle propped on my tummy. It is

guaranteed that the next morning I will dump more than I do when I

don't do this. So there must be something to the castor oil soaking

in plus the tummy massage!

I've been reading a book by Trudeau titled " Natural

Cures 'They' Don't Want You to Know About. The guy must be super

rich and self-absorbed, b/c it seems like he does every natural

health thing and food there is, but his info is most interesting.

One of the first things on his list of " musts for good health " is to

get 15 colonics in 30 days. He says you must clean your colon first

and then proceed to clean, in this order, your liver/gall bladder,

kidney/bladder, heavy metals, parasites, candida, and finally, a

full-body fat cleanse.

Cool, info, !Thanks for every word.I actually met with a colonic therapist a week or so ago. I asked him, "If a person [me, my son] is pooping every day, should we have colonic therapy?" He gave a firm and hearty, "No." He said it was for people pooping less than once a day. That said, his literature noted that a person "should" be pooping 2-3 times per day, and generally after every meal. I have a fab poop every morning, and that's usually it. My son generally goes 1x day also, unless a food has adversely affected him, in which case he may go 0 or 2-3 times.We've just started Betaine with Pepsin and I'll see what changes.I would still love to have a colon cleanse. I just think they're smart. I would also love to be able to do all the cleanses in an

order.Several weeks ago, when I hadn't pooped for several days, I massaged my colon. That's all I did. When I got up from that, I had the longest, coiled poop of my life. Been pooping every since. I give detailed instructions in a file on the GAPS forum.Cheers,Baden

Nowhere else but on a group like this could we all share such gross

details. All the specifics are SO helpful, though. Thanks for your

honesty. And while I'm at it, Baden, thanks for ALL you are

contributing to this and the GAPS groups. When peach season is

over, I'm taking my hardest two children back to Square One, and we

will use your files as checklists.
