The Coffee Enema for Liver Detoxification
The coffee enema has been used for many years to detoxify the liver. It is a low-volume enema that remains only in the sigmoid colon. There is a duct between the sigmoid colon and the liver called the entero-hepatic circulation system. When the stool reaches this point, it contains many toxins, which are sent to the liver for detoxification. The coffee enema will increase the transit time in the bowel. The caffeine that is absorbed into the entero-hepatic system causes the liver ducts, including the bile ducts, to empty into the sigmoid colon and be eliminated. Releasing the toxins in the liver ducts, makes room for toxins from the body to enter the liver for detoxification. The alkaloids in the caffeine stimulate the production of glutathione-S-transferase, which is an enzyme that facilitates the liver detoxification pathways.
Coffee enemas will not waste minerals and electrolytes because they have already been absorbed in the previous sections of the intestines. The coffee enema is safe even for people who are sensitive to caffeine because the coffee remains in the sigmoid colon, where it will not be absorbed.
Also read the following article on complete Detoxification
Brew the Coffee use two to three tbsp per cup, use fresh organic coffee and filtered water, make up 1/2 enema bottle with coffee and then fill the bottle with cold filterd water.
Use some Lubrication on the nozzle Lay on your back and push the coffee into the colon slowly - pop some pillows under your butt to raise them and retain it for ten to 15 minutes Evacuate your bowels and expel the coffee enema.
Over the next hour, you may feel the need to have more bowel movements. It's a good idea to stay near a toilet. After this Give yourself a warm water enema to cleanse your bowels and flush away any remaining coffee.
It is also a good idea to then start using a good gut binder as you will be realeasing toxins in to the Bowl and some may not be eliminated and circulate back in to the system which can give a herx like reaction. And also a product to ensure you have regular Bowl Movements.
