Over time, toxic waste can accumulate in the colon and liver, and then circulate throughout the body via the bloodstream. A clean and healthy colon and liver, then, are essential for the health of all the organs and tissues of the body.
There are two types of enemas - the retention enema and the cleansing enema. The primary action of the retention enema, which is held in the body for about fifteen minutes, is to help rid the liver of impurities. The cleansing enema, which is retained for only a few minutes, is used to flush out the colon.
When using any enema, keep in mind that they should never be used if there is rectal bleeding. In such a case, contact your health care provider immediately.
If you experience tension or spasms in the bowel while using an enema, try using warmer water (99°F to 102°F is a good temperature) to help relax the bowel. If the bowel is weak or flaccid, try using colder water (75°F to 80°F) to help strengthen it.
After using any enema, be sure to wash and sterilize the tip of the enema bag.

COFFEE RETENTION ENEMA
When used as a retention enema - an enema that is held in the body for a specified period of time - a coffee enema does not go through the digestive system, and does not affect the body as a coffee beverage does. Instead, the coffee solution stimulates both the liver and the gallbladder to release toxins, which are then flushed from the body.
A coffee retention enema is quite helpful during a serious illness, after hospitalization, and after exposure to toxic chemicals. This enema can also be used during fasts to relieve the headaches sometimes caused by a fast-induced release of toxins.
PROCEDURE:
To make a coffee enema solution, place 2 quarts of steam-distilled water in a pan, and add 6 heaping tablespoons of ground coffee (do not use instant or decaffeinated). Boil the mixture for 15 minutes, cool to a comfortable temperature, and strain. Use only 1 pint of the strained coffee at a time, and refrigerate the remainder in a closed jar.
Place 1 pint of enema solution in an enema bag. Do not use petroleum jelly to lubricate the tip of the enema bag. Instead use vitamin E oil (buy it in oil form or pierce the end of a vitamin E capsule and squeeze the liquid onto the tip). The liquid will both ease insertion and have a healing effect on the anus and the lining of the colon, if these areas are inflamed. Aloe vera may also be used for this purpose.
The best position to assume when receiving the enema is "head down and rear up". After the liquid has been inserted, roll onto your right side and hold the solution in your body for 15 minutes before allowing the fluid to be expelled. Do not roll from side to side.
Do not be concerned if the liquid is not expelled after 15 minutes. Simply stand up and move around as usual until you feel the urge to expel the liquid.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
To maximize the benefits of this or any other retention enema, use a cleansing enema first.
Do not abuse coffee enemas by using them too often. Use them only once daily while following a program for a specific disorder, unless you are being treated for cancer. People with cancer may need up to 3 enemas a day. You may also use coffee enemas occasionally as needed.
Remember that excessive use of coffee enemas over 6 months or more may deplete the body's stores of iron, as well as other minerals and vitamins, causing anemia. Do not use coffee enemas for longer than 4 to 6 weeks at a time. If you develop anemia during treatment - or whenever you use this enema daily for a long period of time - be sure to take desiccated liver tablets as directed on the label.
If you have cancer, AIDS, or another serious illness, or if you have a malabsorption problem, add 1 cc of B-complex vitamins or 2 cc of injectable liver extract, plus a dropperful of liquid kelp or sea water concentrate (found in health food stores), to the enema solution. If you are unable to locate injectable forms of these supplements, open 2 capsules of a B-complex supplement and add the contents to the enema solution, making sure it dissolves before use. Used daily, these supplements replace any lost B vitamins, help rebuild the liver, and provide an extra boost of energy.

To kill unwanted bacteria in the colon - or for any type of colon disorder, including diarrhea and constipation - add 5 drops of either Aerobic 07 from Aerobic Life Industries or Dioxychlor from American Biologics to the enema solution.
