Re: Juicer/enema advice?

I thought my Champion juicer was working fine, so I can't give advise on the juicer.

I got my enema at a local drugstore. And got organic coffee from the health food store.

Here are the directions I found, from an excerpt from a book I've used for years:

coffee enema Procedure

In a succinct manner, Dr. Max Gerson summarized the best procedure for self-administration of a coffee enema. He had written down the simple steps in abbreviated from for easy following. Those directions were recorded in his famous text for the medical consumer, and the Gerson Institute has carried forward with refinements to his method as described in its volume of educational literature.

Dr. Gerson suggests that the individual assume a specific body position when taking a coffee enema. He writes: "To make enemas most effective, the patient should like on his/her right side, with both legs drawn close to the abdomen, and breathe deeply, in order to suck the greatest amount of fluid into all parts of the colon. The fluid should be retained ten to fifteen minutes."

As was described by now-deceased Harold Manner, Ph.D., in chapter 12, within twelve minutes nearly all the caffeine from the coffee is absorbed through the bowel wall and into the hemorrhoidal veins. From these blood vessels it flows directly into the portal veins and ten into the liver. Dr. Gerson advises for cancer patients and other very sick people that during the first months of treatment, enemas may be taken as frequently as every four hours, day and night, for their optimal effect. Some terminal cancer patients save their lives and restore health by taking five coffee enemas each day for months at a time!

In his writings, the formulation that the much-respected German-American physician had offered as the best coffee enema concentration

1) Drop 3 rounded tablespoonfuls of ground (drip) coffee (not instant) into one quart of water.
2) Let the solution boil three minutes and then simmer fifteen minutes more.
3) Strain the solution.
4) Fill a quart glass container with the liquid and let cool to body temperature.
5) Use this solution at body temperature for purposes of bowel infusion.
The daily amount of coffee liquid can be prepared at one time, or a more concentrated coffee solution may be made and then diluted down to the required strength for repeated separate enemas during consecutive applications.

Benefits of Coffee Enemas

It dilutes portal blood and, subsequently, the bile
Theophylline and theobromine, major nutraceutical constituents of coffee, dilate, blood vessels and counter inflammation of the gut.
The palmitates of coffee enhance glutathione S-transferase, which is responsible for the removal of many toxic radicals form blood serum
The fluid of the enema itself stimulates the visceral nervous system, promoting peristalsis and the transit of diluted toxic bile from the duodenum out the rectum.
Because the stimulating enema is retained for up to fifteen minutes, and because all the blood in the body passes through the liver nearly every three minutes, coffee enemas represent a form of dialysis of blood across the gut wall.
