Colonic Hydrotherapy reduces parasites in the colon. Parasites in the blood, come mostly from the colon. During my study at the Richter Medical & Alternative Clinic, I saw worms being expelled from the colon and a few days afterword the patient showed marked improvement of what was diagnosed as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

A stool sample through a dark field microscope looks like pond water on steroids.  There are hundreds of different fungi, bacteria and parasites in just one field of view and each secrete biproducts damaging to health.

There are 3,657,600 – 7,315,200 villi in and average adult’s intestine and that is a lot of surface area that can easily be clogged by digestion of animal products and fiberless foods.

Most people are in shock with the thought of 5 gallons of water being flushed through their colon with a person standing over them massaging their stomach. Yet, it has proven benefits to health. An enema will only flush a few quarts through your intestine and never is 100% effective.

Colonic Irrigations

Colonic irrigation is a procedure for removing waste and toxins from the bowel also known as colonic hydrotherapy. It can help remove hardened fecal matter impacted on the colon wall and remove worms or parasites living in your intestine.

Here are some picture of fecal matter removed through colonic irrigation.

Colonic extraction

It is estimated that the average person will have 5 – 15 pounds (2 – 7 kilograms) of waste matter impacted on the colon wall, built up over years of eating heavy foods requiring mucus secretion to protect the stomach and colon resulting in an increase of toxins though parasites.

An impacted colon can cause:

  • Acne, psoriasis and other skin problems.
  • Asthma, allergies, persistent runny nose and colds,
  • Anxiety, depression and irritability
  • Bladder Infections, bloated stomach and wind
  • Candida
  • Cellulite
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome
  • Constipation and indigestion
  • Colon Cancer
  • Colon Diseases
  • Fluid retention
  • Food allergies
  • Halitosis (bad breath)
  • Headaches and sinus problems
  • Hemorrhoids
  • Insomnia
  • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
  • Lethargy
  • Menstrual problems, pre-menstrual syndrome
  • Poor memory
  • Weakened immune system

Benefits of Colonic Irrigation

Colonic irrigation, fasting and enema, and a change in diet to more high fiber foods, and more fruits and vegetables in the diet may help to reduce the symptoms listed above by clearing out the impacted waste matter and enabling the colon to function effectively again.

Post Colonic Irrigation

Colonics are intrusive.  Peristalsis is the rhythmic contraction of smooth muscles to propel contents through the digestive tract.  After a colonic the natural rhythm of the intestine are disrupted and it take a few day for it to get back to natural movement.  Eat fruits and vegetable only for two days after the colonic. If the  hygienist does not implant healthy intestinal bacteria after the flush, they are doing you a disservice. Failure to implant health bacteria will cause constipation for about a week and the unhealthy bacteria will take control of the intestine leading to a host of problems.

IMPORTANT: It is important to have your intestinal bacteria replaced after a colonic.

fasting reactionsBad Breath

Waste passes through the lungs, which are an eliminative organ. Brushing the tongue with a toothbrush, using dental floss and rinsing with mouthwash will reduce bad breath. I do not recommend chewing gum for a fast as it stimulates digestion, but if you have a meeting with a big client, it may be wise to chew a breath freshener. Health food stores have natural breath fresheners.

Blackouts

During fasting, the body conserves energy. The heart pumps slower and blood pressure lowers. Standing or moving quickly from a resting position will cause the blood to flow to the legs. For a few seconds, the brain may not get enough oxygen, causing blackouts and dizziness. To stop a blackout, get down on one knee or sit. Lowering your center of gravity will instantly stop a blackout. Blackouts are more frequent during water fasting. On longer water fasts, breathing quickly for a few seconds before standing will stop all blackouts.

Cankers

During a fast, unhealthy bacteria increase between the teeth, and the tongue becomes coated with waste that can cause cankers. To stop cankers, gargle with sea salt mixed with water several times daily. The most effective remedy is to dab salt on the canker but the pain will be very intense. Dabbing the sore with tea tree oil or vitamin E quickens the healing process. During fasting, the cankers can be large and very painful.

Chills

Almost everyone becomes sensitive to the cold during a fast. You will need to dress warmer and take extra clothing if you go out. A hot water bottle brings great comfort.

Colds

Mucoid is the perfect food for viruses. Toxins weaken the immune system. When large quantities of toxins and mucus are in the blood due to a fast, the body can become susceptible to colds. To fight a cold, continue fasting to eliminate the mucus. Reduce the liquid intake and drink lemon juice. When your body is clean from mucus, you will never catch a cold again.

Diarrhea

Fruit juices have a laxative effect, which is more pronounced after water fasting. Using the enema can stop it. Using psyllium husk during diarrhea will help regulate the system. If there is rectal burning use Vaseline.

Hair Loss

It can be a terrifying experience to start losing hair during a fast or raw food diet. Joel Fuhrman, M.D. states, Hair loss after fasting is not uncommon, it even has a medical name called Telogen Effluvium. Telogen Effluvium results from the conversion of a large number on anagen (active) hairs to telogen (resting) hairs, with subsequent shedding. It is usually observed 1 to 4 months after a precipitating event but may occur up to 8 months later. Typically less than 50% of hair is lost and be noticed only by the person suffering with it. Many drugs can cause this, but it also can be precipitated by rapid weight loss, fasting, surgery, childbirth, illness, infection and psychological stress. No treatment is necessary for this self-limiting disorder, although the duration varies form 6 to 12 months. Hair regrowth is always complete.

Headaches

Toxins can cause muscle tightness in the neck and shoulders. This can result in tension headaches. Massaging the neck and shoulders will help relieve the tension. The herb, Fever Few, which is available in health food stores, is well worth trying. It is acceptable to take Tylenol to get through the early stages of fasting where headaches can be very painful.

Muscle Tightness

The muscles may become tight and sore due to toxin irritation. The legs can be the worst affected, as toxins accumulate in the legs. A self-massage, hot baths, stretching and exercising will help to release the toxins.

Nausea

When waste is released too quickly by the lymph glands, some of the toxic overload is taken by the liver and secreted with bile into the stomach. This causes nausea. Drinking water or carrot juice will dilute the bile and toxin mixture, helping to flush it from the system.

Nervousness

The elimination of toxins can irritate damaged nerves. A hot bath or walking will relieve tension.

Skin Problems

The skin may become oily as rancid oils are purged from the body. People with problem-free skin may have a few days of pimples or even a boil. A pallid complexion is also a sign of waste in the blood. When cleansed of mucus and toxins, the skin will be healthy, soft and unblemished.

Tiredness

Tiredness is normal during water or restricted juice fasting. If the tiredness is too much, increase the quantity of sweet juices like melon and carrot juice.

Juice Fasting Testimony (Christian): Grace L.

Juice Fasting Testimony: 17 days
Weight Loss: 21 lbs.
Healed: stomach reflex disease, skin problems
Location: Whitby, ON, Canada.

A friend of mine was tackling a 21-day fast with vegetable and fruit juices from a book she had read. I wanted to see the author of the book to get more information, as I still wasn’t sure of the concept. His experience and enthusiasm convinced me.

The fast was not for my physical appearance, but to pray for the burdens of those I loved. I felt suffering in the church and in my home. Even before the fast I felt satanic opposition against it. In bed, I felt a force push down on me trying to kill me, but pleading the blood of Christ the feeling left me. On the first day of the fast, I saw a WOLF. Yes! A real wolf and I live in the city. I even called one of the children to see it. It was staring at my house. It gave me the chills. Once again I prayed and it also left. These strange events firmly convinced me I was supposed to fast.

I prayed for my church and witnessed the power of the Lord move in our pastor on the Friday night service. The service was on fire; people were singing glorious praises to God. Two young boys got baptized.

On the second day of the fast the Lord spoke to me. (JOEL 2:12-13) “Therefore also sayeth the Lord, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and weeping, and with mourning. And rend your heart, and not your garment, and turn unto the Lord your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentethHim of the evil.”

By the third day I felt terrific. I was at peace; my four children would be loud but I was at peace, nothing could bother me. As the fast progressed it became easier. I had more energy, I was on a spiritual high, singing and rejoicing. One morning I woke up with severe gas cramps in my stomach. The cramps were so bad I thought I would end up in the hospital, but after 10 minutes the cramps went away. One day I went through a dip and felt low in spirit but that was it; the next day I was fine.

At the end of the 17-day fast, a physical problem was gone. My doctor had told me I had a stomach reflex disease and would have to take pills for the rest of my life, but after the fast I no longer had that disease; I was completely healed. I had arthritis in my left knee; it was also gone. I also lost 21 pounds of excess fat. Before fasting, my skin was dry it cleared up.

To me, fasting is a way of drawing me closer to God and being able to lean on Him. When I was weak, He made me strong.
