Found this enema recipe at http://www.michimagic.com/bastirecipes.htm

Nutritive Enema
2 or 3 capsules of Probiotic
4 oz of warm sesame oil,( or olive oil, sunflower oil)
2 vitamin E capsules
1 teaspoon of Glutamine powder
***If you have inflammation in the colon, add 10 drops of any of the following non-alcoholic herbal tincture: marshmallow root, Echinacea, geranium, goldenseal, comfrey or slippery elm.
Mix the above ingredients very well, administer as enema, hold as long as possible. If you have colitis, administer every day the first week, then 2 or 3 times a week thereafter.

I have problems with irritated, bleeding hemorrhoids and think this may be a good alternative treatment to complement the use of corticosteriod suppositories.

I like this, and am much more willing to try nutritive enemas before medicinal enemas. :)

This sounds really healing. Anyone give this a shot yet?

This does sound interesting. If anyone does try it, I hope they'll report back!

I mixed the ingredients (using olive oil) yesterday. Used the enema last night. Too early to be sure but it seems to help with irritation.

Went to Walmart looking for sesame or sunflower oil to see if they would be a bit "lighter" than extra virgin olive oil which I had on hand.
Also purchased a couple of Fleet Pedia-Lax enemas for $2 each. Will empty the containers of sodium laxative solution and use the bottles which are light and easy to squeeze and get all solution out.

Will be looking at different types of oil that can be used.

interesting!! thanks for posting ! i'd do use vit E up the pooper sometimes ,but  i like the combo in this "recipe' . I can see sesame and olive oil being a bit thick but maybe theres something to it.

keep us posted on any results . i'll try it too .

 

I've been wanting to use an enema when flares are beginning

Yes, I am generally lactose intolerant.
Usually drink only almond milk but do not have a problem with Jarrow Whey Protein (Caribbean chocolate flavor).

Besides protein, benefits include lots of amino acids.
I get it from Vitacost.com.... 2 lbs for about $22. Check it out online.
