castile soap enemas?

Question

Has anybody ever had an enema by using a bit of castile soap and warm water? My doctor says it's pretty common. But I want to know if it will make you sick or cause you to have severe cramps? I know having all that water inside you can do it. But will adding castile soap make it worse?

Answer 1

All enemas will cause cramping.

Castile Soap can be used to enhance the cleansing of the colon.
The soapy solution causes an irritation to the intestinal lining thereby causing stronger reactive contractions in the colon.

You should only use an enema if you are constipated and the doctor recommends it. You should never do it on a regular basis as your body will become use to it and will always have to have it to eliminate stool. Never use it to try to lose weight as it only gets rid of what is in the colon. People will read this and try it for other reasons.

I'm an RN. I used to give those ALL the time at the hospital. They will clean you inside out and upside down! The hardest part is trying to get all the solution in before it starts working! Don't know about cramps...I honestly think it works before you have a chance to cramp!
