12:59:16 dorama hi
13:00:39 kristina Hello!
13:00:46 JohnS hi
13:01:32 JohnS  have you read Robert Gray's Colon Health Handbook?
13:02:25 kristina Yes, I have read Robert Gray's Colon Health Handbook.
13:03:11 JohnS  From a physiological point of view, I find the book very illuminating. I never thought that the colon was the exit point for lymphatic fluids.
13:03:38 kristina Say more.
13:03:38 JohnS  Do you know of any other books that discuss the colon like that?
13:04:25 kristina Not off the top of my head, but I will think about it as the chat goes along and into the future and post on Facebook, if not here today, okay?
13:04:39 JohnS  ok
13:05:08 George  what is an elongated colon, Kristina?
13:07:19 kristina  Sorry, I got knocked off so I missed the last two minutes.
13:07:31 DrAlbert Hello, All.
13:07:35 kristina An elongated colon pertains to the sigmoid colon.
13:07:59 JohnS  do you know of any way to get an accurate and precise picture of how much hard fecal matter/old mucus we have, aside from a body CT scan or colonoscopy?
13:08:12 JohnS  I really would like to know what my colon looks like and how much old matter is in there instead of subjecting myself to x-rays from CT scans.
13:08:34 kristina Some say it is genetic; when one has it, it can cause lots of pain.
13:08:56 kristina Hello, Dr Albert!
13:08:59 George  can it cause blockage?
13:09:10 DrAlbert Hi, Kristina
13:10:15 kristina  An elongated colon is thought to be fairly common in the elderly, so I tend to think that it is caused by lifestyle and is most often not inherited.
13:11:07 kristina  It depends if the colon is also twisted, kinked, or telescoped.
13:11:18 kristina George, do you have an elongated colon?
13:11:25 George  I recently had a colonosocopy and the doctor mentioned this to me.
13:11:27 George yes
13:12:13 Charles N Kristina, is there a preferred length that a coffee enema should be inserted to get maximum benefits?
13:12:30 kristina  Today I would like to talk about herbal protocols in the control of microbial infections and/or dysbiosis.
13:12:44 DrAlbert oops...
13:12:50 kristina 12-15 minutes is the preferred length to hold a coffee enema.
13:13:16 George  I get backed up so I have to rely on a weekly enema series.
13:13:34 Jo Is there any way to avoid the caffeine buzz that I get after my coffee enemas?
13:13:48 kristina  Dr. Albert, as I just posted but you may have lost it, I am going to weave through the other discussions here, herbal protocols in the control of microbial infections and/or gut dysbiosis.
13:14:04 DrAlbert thanks... I think I hit the wrong key... :)
13:14:13 kristina Jo, how much coffee do you use when you take a coffee enema?
13:14:30 Jo I use 5 tablespoons for 10 cups of water
13:14:50 kristina George, do your bowels move on their own each day throughout the week? If not, how often?
13:15:23 Charles N Sorry, but I meant to ask the distance in inches to insert the coffee enema.
13:15:53 George on occasion before the weekly enema once
13:16:06 kristina I start my clients out with about 1 T to 1 cup of brewed coffee, made with 1 quart of water and 4 T of made-for-enema coffee, which is then mixed with 1-3 cups of water.
13:16:32 kristina  So, I would say, use much less coffee as a coffee enema ought not cause a "buzz."
13:17:38 Jo  I'll try that smaller amount :)
13:17:41 kristina It is ideal if the coffee implant solution stays within the rectal area and the sigmoid colon, so 4-12 inches at most.
13:18:00 George  kristina, I exercise daily, drink water and green tea
13:18:49 kristina  Might you take an enema, George, at least 2-3 times a week? And, we need to see to it that your bowel is emptying out daily.
13:19:43 kristina You could use even more frequent enemas for this purpose or we could work with you to determine what the optimal diet and supplement protocol would be to encourage your body to empty the bowel daily.
13:19:47 Jo  Kristina, I wanted to thank you for helping me about a month ago. we talked on the phone and you helped me choose the right enema equipment. You are very kind and informative, and I appreciated that so much! :D
13:20:19 kristina You are very welcome, Jo. Thanks for thanking me!
13:20:42 George One enema or a series a couple of times per week?
13:21:15 kristina  Most of us think that if we have gut issues going on, the most important first step is to use a probiotic formula.
13:22:44 kristina  This may be right for some, but for others, with imbalances in the gut flora, the most important part of treating a gut microbial imbalance is to start with immune-enhancing herbs.
13:23:05 kristina An enema series a couple of times a week.
13:24:06 George  Kristina, I have your CD "10 Days to Optimal Health." Thanks for the advice.
13:24:27 kristina Antimicrobial strategies can take several forms:
13:24:49 kristina First, what micro-organisms are involved in the gut imbalance?
13:25:37 kristina  We can determine this by taking a Gastrointestinal Health Panel.
13:27:05 kristina  First, back to the immune-enhancing herbs (I got a little ahead of myself)...
13:28:45 John D. Hi All
13:29:34 kristina Echinacea root is particularly safe and and useful as it especially works on the input side of immune activation, mainly phagocytosis.
13:31:06 kristina Its influence will help the body to resolve the presence of micro-organisms which are having a deleterious effect on health and yet it will not stimulate the autoimmune processes.
13:31:23 kristina You are welcome, George.
13:31:39 kristina Does that sound like a workable idea, to take more enemas each week?
13:31:59 George  Yes I will try that.
13:32:02 John D.  Quick question?
13:32:33 kristina  Or would you like to work with us so that you are more likely to move your bowels daily without the added support of the enema?
13:32:40 kristina  Go ahead, John. And welcome.
13:33:29 John D. Did you ever hear of a situation where constipation can cause pain in the limbs?
13:34:25 kristina Andrographis and Astralagus are two other immune-enhancing herbs that we work with at the Optimal Health Center to improve immunity in cases of dysbiosis.
13:34:33 kristina Yes, absolutely.
13:35:03 John D. I get constipated and get pain in my arm. goes away when not constipated.
13:35:53 George I would like to become regular and any help would be appreciated
13:36:03 John D. Same here
13:36:38 kristina  There are many reasons why constipation contributes to pain in other parts of the body.
13:37:31 kristina  Many of our waste products, when reabsorbed, cause inflammation.
13:37:43 kristina hormones, toxins, metabolites
13:37:55 kristina  Pressure on the colon can cause inflammation in the rest of the body.
13:38:31 kristina John, do you take enemas?
13:38:36 kristina How does that go for you?
13:39:12 kristina  George, have you done a hair analysis with us?
13:39:28 John D. Not yet, have to start. By the way, thanks for the welcome, nice to meet you.
13:39:30 kristina They are relatively inexpensive and give us a lot of information on your individual body.
13:39:48 kristina you are welcome. Nice to meet you, too.
13:40:01 George no
13:40:04 kristina Try one enema and see how it goes. Let me know.
13:40:25 kristina When the colon doesn't empty daily there can be many causes:
13:40:45 kristina a lack of minerals in the body - magnesium, etc.
13:40:55 kristina  a lack of fiber in the diet
13:41:10 kristina  an underfunctioning thyroid
13:41:18 kristina dehydration
13:41:22 kristina and more.
13:41:38 John D. Looks like I've come to the right place.
13:41:46 kristina  We want to address the cause of your particular constipation, which is where the hair analysis comes in.
13:42:04 kristina Certainly, the enema does clear the colon and is an excellent tool.
13:42:06 DrAlbert Kristina, do you have any advice for a 61 year old woman who has been in constant pain from a rectal mucosal prolapse?
13:42:14 kristina However, we want the whole body to be functioning well.
13:42:26 kristina ouch!
13:42:33 DrAlbert no kidding!
13:43:49 DrAlbert  She's had very little success with the various colorectal surgeons she's consulted with at KP.
13:43:53 kristina Normally, the rectum is securely attached to the pelvis with the help of ligaments and muscles. This attachment firmly holds the rectum in place. Various factors, such as age, long-term constipation, and the stress of childbirth, may cause these ligaments and muscles to weaken, which means that the rectum's attachment to the body also weakens. This causes the rectum to prolapse, meaning it slips or falls out of place. Occasionally, large hemorrhoids (large, swollen veins inside the rectum) may predispose the rectum to prolapse.
13:44:15 George  Kristina, I am 62. Could too many enemas been the cause for the elongated colon?
13:44:21 kristina Do you know more specifics about her situation that you could share here?
13:44:43 kristina George, it is much more likely that constipation is the cause of the elongated colon, not enemas.
13:45:12 kristina I doubt that enemas would cause an elongated colon but how many enemas have you done throughout your life and in what frequency?
13:45:20 George  Thanks. I have had problems since childhood.
13:45:33 JohnS so, how does one fix an elongated colon?
13:45:54 John D.  Kristina, I will check out your website, be a regular on these chats, and be in touch. I feel better already. :) See you at the next chat. Work calls here.
13:45:57 kristina My experience is that most people are able to improve their health; your colon issue can be improved.
13:46:07 kristina Thanks, John!
13:46:27 George  when I was a child, weekly, and now still weekly
13:46:49 kristina  To "fix" an elongated colon, we need to address all the possible issues and see what happens:
13:46:49 DrAlbert  She had a adrenalectomy 3 years ago... the lack of cortisol output requires steroidal supplements. This developed after some hems were discovered... no surgical intervention, yet. And it's not the rectum, but the rectal mucosa that is prolapsed.
13:48:10 kristina  eat a healthy diet, optimize hormone levels - adrenal, thyroid, male and female - address inflammation, bowel dysbiosis, frequency of meals, blood sugar.
13:49:59 kristina Back to antimicrobial strategies can take many forms:
13:51:40 kristina Eliminate the unwanted micro-organisms involved, inhibit the growth of further micro-organisms, and reduce the infectivity of the host body.
13:52:18 kristina  We need to address the hemorrhoids.
13:53:10 kristina  We have excellent results with our Super Salve
13:53:22 kristina  Hi Iowa Alan
13:53:50 kristina Also, we need to make sure her bowels are easily emptying daily.
13:53:51 IowaAlan  Ok, quick Q: has anyone had trouble getting the 750cc double bardex inserted?
13:53:57 DrAlbert  I'll take a look... it's a topical "non stinging" preparation?
13:54:01 IowaAlan Hello Kristina
13:54:04 kristina yes
13:54:21 DrAlbert She visits the bathroom at least 5 or 6 times most mornings.
13:55:38 kristina Also, she would do well to determine the levels of all of her hormones so that her body is in a constant state of regeneration and not busy with internal and/or external stressors
13:56:10 DrAlbert Her endocrinologist seems to be ignoring her... maybe it's time for a change.
13:56:25 kristina She needs to build up as much healing energy as she can in order to have the biological resource to shift her condition.
13:56:51 kristina  Would she take one of our Hormone Panels?
13:57:12 DrAlbert  thanks for the chat.... see you next time.... btw, you do have my email address from last year, in case you want to contact me? I'll ask her about the panel.
13:57:43 kristina  She has diarrhea?
13:58:18 DrAlbert  no, just "loose"' sometimes... tiny "pellet-like" stool expelled.
13:58:25 kristina If so, she needs to get rid of it immediately; she won't be able to heal with a chronic case of diarrhea.
13:58:51 DrAlbert I agree, but that's not a problem... it's the frequency.
14:00:13 kristina Yes, I agree.
14:00:38 DrAlbert I have to run..... again, thanks.
14:00:41 DrAlbert bye
14:00:57 kristina Okay, it is already 1:00. Thanks all for coming today. I look forward to more contact on future Live Chats, Facebook, Twitter, calls to the office, visits, etc.
