Very informative Substack article by Wejolyn. She starts off with the benefits of coffee enemas during WWI.
coffee enema was first used in WW1 when a nurse used the surgeon’s coffee in place of water for a pre-surgery enema. The soldier noticed a large reduction in pain after the surgery was complete and the nurses administered coffee enemas to other patients who also benefited.
Why a coffee enema and not a water enema?
Whereas a ‘water enema’ is used for constipation, headaches & other general maladies - a coffee enema is different. A raw organic green coffee is used and must be prepared ahead of time. 8 cups of pure water to 4 TBSP of organic raw coffee brought to a boil for 10 minutes and cooled. I highly recommend S.A. Wilsons coffee as it has been greatly studied for its high palmitates - buy here - https://amzn.to/4cqbvKe . If you should need an Enema Bag - buy here - https://amzn.to/4cLS5z7.
One of the key goals of a coffee enema, Wejolyn explains, is to "keep as many benefits of the palmitates from the coffee as possible.
After coffee preparation do not use paper filters, or any filter because we want to keep as many components of the palmitates as possible! Palmitates in coffee stimulate and detoxify the liver and blood. Every 6 minutes all your blood goes through your liver to be detoxified. During the coffee enema, that time is shortened to 3 minutes. The caffeine and palmitates cause the liver and bile duct system to release bile into the colon and increases the flow of bile.
But that's not all. She emphasizes that coffee enemas produce high amounts of glutathione, a key antioxidant that becomes a premium as we age.
Cafestol and kahweol are natural diterpenes extracted from coffee beans. In addition to the effect of raising serum lipid, in vitro and in vivo experimental results have revealed that the two diterpenes demonstrate multiple potential pharmacological actions such as anti-inflammation, hepatoprotective, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, and anti-osteoclastogenesis activities. The most relevant mechanisms involved are down-regulating inflammation mediators, increasing glutathione (GSH), inducing apoptosis of tumor cells and anti-angiogenesis…”
This is gold.
did you notice “increasing glutathione”? Glutathione is a tripeptide molecule composed of three amino acids: glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It is a powerful antioxidant naturally produced by the body and found in various cells, tissues, and organs. Glutathione plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health but the body's natural production of glutathione tends to decrease as we get older. This decline is partly due to changes in the body's ability to synthesize the amino acids required for glutathione production and increased oxidative stress with age. To put it simply: most of us don’t have enough. There are glutathione supplements but they are expensive and again - must be assimilated and depending upon the person and their level of health- it is ‘iffy’ whether they make much of a difference. As a functional nutritionist I am always about wanting our own bodies to do the work, and here we find that coffee enemas have been shown to increase Glutathione S-transferase (an enzyme produced by the liver) 600-700% (after just one coffee enema) according to the University of Minnesota. Your liver uses palmitic acid as the chemical base to manufacture Glutathione S-transferase, what an amazing thing! Because of these two major detoxification aids of coffee enemas: 1. Clearing of the Bile Duct and 2. Production of Glutathione, coffee enemas can be extremely helpful for anyone experiencing a die-off or herxheimer (cleansing) reaction. Coffee enemas have been proven in studies to have hepatoprotective properties - meaning it protects against the progression of liver diseases, like cirrhosis and hepatitis. It is Anti-Cancer. Coffee enemas are absolutely amazing for chronic pain and are far better for the body than opioids and other addictive Pharma drugs.
I'm sold.
