The citric acid (and water) enema


So...once upon a time I started doing something, based on reading these two things:

(Nope, I didn't save the sources for any of this, sorry. I'm not trying to convince anyone of these things, I'm only explaining why I first tried this little idea)

Candida yeast can be stunted and somewhat killed by exposing it to fairly strong acids.

The bottom end of the colon (in other words, the rectum), is supposedly naturally supposed to be slightly acidic, unlike the small intestine, which is naturally supposed to be slightly alkaline.

So...I started doing enemas with water and a little bit of citric acid mixed into the water. The result: these diluted citric acid enemas work so much better than plain water enemas do for me. I have slow gut motility, which is NOT helped by more fiber, and sometimes need an enema. Ever since I stumbled on adding a little citric acid to the enema water, I've had much more complete relief from the enemas. Plain water enemas, or even saline enemas, did not do that much for me.

The recipe I use is: 3/4 cup water, mixed with a slightly heaping 1/4 teaspoon of citric acid powder.

I buy the citric acid powder at various vitamin websites, most of them carry it. It is a plain powder.

I've tried using vitamin C powder instead, and for some reason it does not work nearly as well.

Some say that eating foods with "citric acid" on the label is a no-no because this powdered citric acid is made in laboratories via fermentation processes, and therefore traces of the fungal fermentation material might be in the citric acid. However, avoiding that trace amount of possible fermented residue would mean that we would also have to avoid vitamin C in all supplement form, because, guess what, vitamin C sold in supplements is derived in laboratories from fungal/fermented sources. My point is this: the very slight trace residue that may be left in citric acid powder or vitamin C supplements may not be worth worrying about, in my humble opinion.

Someone said to me once that the surface of lettuce or any raw vegetable, even washed, has more bits of natural fungus on it than the little bit in vitamin C powder does...and I tend to believe that.
