Do coffee enemas help prevent colon cancer ,I've heard conflicting stories

I don't know if it's true or not

that’s an excellent question I have been asking myself too. My mother was used to drink turkish coffee every morning 4 big cups🥴. At her 90 doctor told her to stop that habitude due to arrithmia. She is 97 now. And it is me who has bowel cancer. I hate coffee Enema is another question. I have never tried it. Many years ago I met in the internet an old book This book was telling about a doctor who was doing coffee enema to his constipated patients. But he was not touching the cancer cases. İn the 1970 ‘s. But this was in the form of a therapy. As far as I can see for enemas you have to talk with a doctor

Hi Constipated,

Thanks for posting with us. Interesting. This is definitely a new topic for me. I've never heard of it. So I Googled it and see it is a thing. Interesting. I read a lot of "pros" which many are trying to sell the kits🤔. I do also see many from ligit medical sites as well saying to avoid.

In this case, I think the best thing is to cover it with your doctor. Bring in your data if you feel it would be beneficial. Write down all your questions and get your responses.

I personally would not try something like that just because it got some tik tok reviews (a challenge???) or some thumbs up 👍from a vendor selling the kits. I'd cover it with a doctor and go from there. Maybe in certain instances it can be beneficial, but I don't think it's something to try on your own. I'd get a professional opinion about your personal issue and how a coffee enema would help your situation.

Thank you,

I can't speak for colon cancer prevention, but I had non alcoholic hepatic steatosis fatty liver prior to being diagnosed with several autoimmune diseases. I began doing organic coffee enemas " not your typical store bought" coffee. This coffee was made for enemas. I began doing an enema once a week for several months, then upped it to everyday and continued for 6 months before getting my liver scanned again. The gastro noted an improvement, but wasn't buying into what I was doing. I continued daily enemas for 2 years and out of the blue, I began losing rapid weight. 55 pounds in 2 months. This is when I was diagnosed with several autoimmune diseases. I had another scan and my liver was back to normal. I lost the added liver weight and destroyed my gut bacteria as well which lead to digestive issues. I quit doing the coffee enemas. Knowing what I now know, I should've been taking pre and probiotics while doing these enemas. Now I will do a pre/probiotic enema once a week to boost my gut bacteria. If you decide to take that route, definitely keep your gut bacteria in check. SA Wilson coffee is what I used. I will pm you more indepth info on how I prepared the enemas and positions. It may be too much info publicly.
