History of Coffee Enema and Why It Works

The coffee enema was 'accidentally' introduced to soldiers during WWI...and with its use, they found relief from pain.

Health or Disease Lecture of March 2012 Notes

This is in response to questions asked about a lecture given by Michael in 2012.

Glucosamine

Some research suggests that glucosamine reduces pain of osteoarthritis in the knee about as well as the over-the-counter pain reliever acetaminophen (Tylenol). It also seems to reduce pain about as much as the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) and piroxicam (Feldene).

Cleansing & Building Methods

In my health consultations, I often talk about detoxing and cleansing. Some people immediately know what I am talking about while others get a perplexed look on their face. I think this is because we have grown up with such a 'take a pill (drug) for this problem' mentality that when it is suggested you do something for your self and by your self, or do something that seems so simple, it somehow seems backwards and unsophisticated, even third-worldish. So, here are some of my personal remedies.

Oregon Grape

Most American herbalists rank the Oregon grape as one among the most outstanding and exceptional Native American herbs available today. They also believe that the plant is in fact one of the best herbs available that effectively stimulates liver activity and the secretion of bile.

Coffee Enema

3 Tbsp organic, caffeinated Coffee in 5 cups distilled or RO (Reverse Osmosis) water. Bring above to boil for 3 minutes with lid off. Then simmer 15 minutes. Strain water. Cool water until warm or until appropriate for internal use.

Green Tea Extract

Green tea has long been used by the Chinese as medication for the treatment of headaches, body pain, and poor digestion, and the improvement of health and life expectancy. In the 21st century, green tea extract is used as a means to lower cholesterol, slow down arthritis, prevent the growth of cancer cells and assist in weight loss. More than 2,000 scientific studies suggest that green tea is rich in polyphenols and flavonols. The most powerful antioxidant contained in green tea, Epigallocatechin Gallate, commonly referred to as EGCG is over 200 times more potent than vitamins C and E together in fighting free radicals and pro-oxidants.
