Is it ok to take enemas on a regular basis, I take them at least twice a week.?

Question

I find I have more consistant bowel movements between enemas,I also have lots more energy, and feel better

Answer 1

Why would you use an e***a when you can achieve the same result with a diet high in fiber?  Eventually you will disrupt the normal process of elimination that the colon and lower intestine utilizes by means of digestion.  It may cause a weakend muscular tract that results in spontanious flow of fecal matter or worse yet, constpation.

Answer 2

From reading the packaging on the kind that I use it says do not use more than one in a 48 hour period.  So yes, I would say two a week is okay.  There is also another product you might try Dulcolax suppositories ,the 15 minute kind (not the overnight kind) - they work just as well for me as enemas do.

Answer 3

Enemas are a lot of unnecessary trouble for something you can achieve through simple dietary changes.

Answer 4

Lots of people take them twice a week (or more often) without damaging themselves.

Consult the e***a forums on Voy for more info

Answer 5

there is this stuff called activia or acidopholis and it puts the good bacteria back into your intestines and you will feel better and start getting regular!
