Coffee enemas are not a new trend, in fact, people have been using them as part of the Gerson Therapy Protocol for decades to rid their bodies of toxins, reduce inflammation, and heal.
So what is Gerson Therapy?
Developed in the 1920s by Dr. Max Gerson, this natural treatment was started to help cure his own migraine headaches and has gone on to become an alternative practice used by cancer patients and people suffering from chronic diseases and inflammation all around the globe.
Gerson Therapy, also known as the ‘Gerson Diet’, ‘Gerson Regimen’ and ‘Gerson Method’, is a process to activate the body’s ability to heal itself by treating the underlying cause of degenerative disease.
Those who follow the Gerson Therapy are trying to rid their body of toxins and strengthen their immune system.
They believe that the body can heal itself if given the opportunity.
The three elements to the Gerson Method are
Detoxification with coffee enemas
To assist in removing toxins from the liver and colon, patients undergo up to five coffee enemas daily. This detoxification process is a huge part of the Gerson technique, helping to ensure the efficient excretion of harmful substances from the body.
An organic plant-based diet and juices
Patients consume three meals daily, freshly prepared from organically grown fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. This diet is naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and micro-nutrients while being low in sodium, fats, and proteins. Additionally, freshly pressed juice from raw foods is included to aid in liver cleansing.
Vitamin and mineral supplements
These supplements, classified as biologicals, are organic materials provided in small doses. They are designed to complement the plant-based diet rather than replace it, enhancing the body’s natural healing processes.
Why are coffee enemas so important in Gerson Therapy?
Coffee enemas are a significant component of Gerson Therapy due to their role in the detoxification process. These enemas assist in eliminating waste from the body by stimulating peristalsis in the gut and increasing the bile flow, thereby flushing toxic bile out of the intestines.
Doctors at the University of Minnesota also showed that coffee administered rectally can stimulate an enzyme system in the liver called glutathione S-transferase by up to 600%-700% above normal activity levels.
This enzyme reacts with free radicals (which can cause cell damage) in the bloodstream and makes them inert.
By facilitating the excretion of toxins, coffee enemas help regenerate and rejuvenate the liver, one of the body’s primary detoxifying organs.
This process may not only support healthy liver function but also reactivate the immune system, helping it to combat diseases and infections better.
Furthermore, coffee enemas followed by a healthy diet to ‘put the good stuff’ back into the gut, can help to restore the body’s essential defenses, ensuring a stronger, more resilient system capable of maintaining health and preventing illness.
Happy Bum Co and Gerson Therapy
Many Happy Bum customers have told us they use our coffee enema kits as part of their Gerson Regimen or healing journeys like Tania who has shared her story with us.
I began using coffee enemas as an Integrative therapy to heal from multiple myeloma cancer and detoxifying my liver from toxic treatments, previous medication and accumulated heavy metals.I made the conscious decision to use Happy Bum Co products because they support my nontoxic living, and trends with the Gerson therapy protocol.
My blood labs have improved so much since the onset of my cancer diagnosis, with the use of enemas. Factually, my liver enzymes are perfect and my inflammatory cancers markers are all optimal to this date.
I have been in remission now for one year and five months, and I will continue enemas for life as a protocol to mitigate cancer recurrence and keep my glutathione production optimal.
Kerry also shared her Happy Bum Journey with coffee enemas after being diagnosed with Metatstic Cancer
My liver function is perfect, my last PET scan, 6 tumors are now non-active, 2 are still active but not growing, I feel fantastic, more energy, & I put it all down to my veg diet, enemas, supplements and my daily chemo👍

How To Prepare Your Coffee For Your Enema?
At Happy Bum Co, we plunge our coffee here’s why…
During our extensive testing to create the best enema coffee blend we looked at the difference between boiling coffee and plunging coffee and we saw no statistical difference.
Don’t forget that Gerson Therapy was developed in the 1920’s so boiling coffee was the normal way (we don’t think they had plungers back then 😉)
Plus, plunging coffee is a more efficient, cleaner, and faster way to prepare your enema coffee!
