Why Coffee Enemas are Essential in Cancer Therapy and Body Detoxification
“Coffee Break Down Under”
My husband C.K. and I brought our children to attend the Valentine Serenade by the renowned violinist, Freda Yang at the Shangri-la Beach Hotel. After the dinner, I noticed a gentleman whom I had met a few days earlier. I went over to his table to greet him. The waiter came to serve coffee and the gentleman asked me whether I would like to join him and his companion for some coffee. I told him if I drank coffee, it would keep me awake the whole night. Just at the moment, my young son, Daniel, came around, and interjected, “My Mummy takes coffee from the other end!” Two pairs of eyes gazed at me inquisitively, so I had to explain to them how black coffee, with no sugar, is taken “from the other end.”
Many jokes arise among those who are taking coffee enemas or “Coffee Break Down Under.” Charlotte Gerson once told us a true story about a boy who suffered from a brain tumour at the age of 2. He underwent the Gerson Cancer Therapy for 2 years and was healed of the cancer. At the age of 5, he followed his father to his office so that he could observe that morning’s meeting which the father was about to chair.’ Before the meeting commenced, coffee was served. The little boy was shocked with amazement and he exclaimed to his father, “Daddy, they are drinking coffee through their mouth!”
Liver Detoxification With Coffee Enemas
In the 1920’s, German scientists experimented and reported that boiled coffee solutions, when administered rectally in experimental animals, tends to stimulate the production of bile, which detoxifies the liver and restores it to its normal functions.
Dr. MAX GERSON wrote in his book CANCER THERAPY; RESULTS OF 50 CASES: “This treatment (referring to coffee enemas) should be followed strictly, both in the clinic and later at home for at least 18 months… The liver is the main organ for the regeneration of the body’s metabolism…”
During a 1985 conference on cancer treatment conducted by the late Harold Manner, held at King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, Dr. Manner described the effects of a coffee enema as follows:-
“All of the body’s blood passes through the liver every 3 minutes. During the time when the coffee enema is being retained in the gut, the hemorrhoidal blood vessels dilate and, in turn, the liver’s portal veins dilate also.
At the same time, the bile ducts dilate, the bile flow increases and the smooth muscles of these internal organs relax. The blood gets detoxified as it passes through this ‘caffeinated’ liver. The coffee solution, being retained in the guts, stimulates the visceral nervous system, thus, promoting peristalsis. This coffee water solution dilutes the bile, and causes an even greater increase in bile flow.
Thus, together with the dilation of the bile ducts, there is a flushing of toxic bile from the liver.
Further, the presence of coffee solution in the liver stimulates the production of the enzymatic catalyst GLUTATHIONE-S-TRANSFERASE (GST) and causes an increase in quantity of the enzyme by 600% to 700%.
This GST enzyme has an excellent physiological effect because it works as a ‘FREE RADICALS QUENCHER’.
So, as the blood passes through the liver every 3 minutes, the GST enzyme is able to capture the free radicals from the blood. Together with the increase in the bile flow, they leave the liver and the gall bladder through the duodenum. They are carried away by the peristaltic movement from the small intestines, through the colon, and out.”
In 1990, the German physiologist P. Lechner, M.D., and his colleagues investigated the use of coffee enemas in cancer treatment and they discussed the increasing quantities of Glutathione-S-Transferase or GST in the gut. Dr. Lechner wrote…
- GST blocks and detoxifies carcinogens which require oxidation or reduction to be activated. Its catalytic function produces a protective effect against many chemical carcinogens.
- GST binds bilirubin and its glucuronides so that they can be eliminated from the hepato-cytes (liver cells).
- GST forms a co-valent bond with nearly all highly electrophilic (free radical) substances, which is the precondition of their elimination. The intermediate products of potentially hepatotoxic cytostatics also belong in this category.

The Administration of Coffee Enemas
Dr. Max Gerson, M.D., wrote in his book A CANCER THERAPY on coffee enemas as follows:-
“In as much as the DETOXIFICATION of the body is of the greatest importance, especially in the beginning, it is absolutely necessary to administer frequent enemas, day and night.”
“On the average, we give coffee enemas every 4 hours, day and night, and even more frequently again if severe pain, nausea, general nervous tension and depression occur. Enemas also help against spasms, pain, and difficulties resulting from the sudden withdrawal of all intoxicating sedation. Difficult as this may be to believe, experience has proved that frequent enemas completely remove the need for which sedation. I lost several patients by Coma Hepaticum down since I did not know, and therefore neglected, the vital importance of frequent and regularly continued elimination of poisonous substances with the help of juices, enemas, etc… Patients have to know that the coffee enemas are not given for the function of the intestines but for the stimulation of the liver.”
“A cup of coffee taken by mouth has an entirely different effect. It contains 0.1 gm – 1.5 gm of caffeine. It heightens the reflex response, lowers the blood pressure, increases the heart rate, perspiration, causes insomnia and heart palpitations. Further, the local irritations stimulate stomach motility. Therefore, coffee drinking should be discouraged except when it is needed to be taken to eliminate the castor oil from the stomach during the castor oil enema, as prescribed for cancer patients.”
All degenerative diseases, including cancer, involve sluggish and poisoned livers. Thus, administration of coffee enemas is effective as one of the natural therapies for the diseases.
Dr. Max Gerson reported in his article called ‘THE CURE OF ADVANCED CANCER BY DIET THERAPY,” published in Physiological Chemistry & Physics Publication, 1978 :
“Coffee Enemas cause dilation of bile ducts, which facilitates excretion of toxic cancer breakdown products by the liver and dialysis of toxic products from blood across the colonic wall.”
The increased production of the enzyme GLUTATHIONE-S-TRANSFERASE is responsible for the removal of many toxic radicals from serum.
Finally, the fluid of the enema itself stimulates the visceral nervous system, promoting peristalsis and the transit of the toxic bile together with the toxins from the blood, from the duodenum and out of the rectum.
Because the stimulating enema is retained for 15 minutes, and as all the blood in the body passes through the liver nearly every 3 minutes, this enema represents a form of dialysis of blood across the gut wall.
It is obvious, in the light of the above, that oral administration of beverage coffee cannot have the same effect. On the contrary, it virtually ensures reabsorption of toxic biles.
As written in the GERSON PRIMER – “a manual given to cancer patients when they check into the hospital where the Natural Gerson Cancer Therapy is carried out – “As a medication, the enema is in a class by itself. While other agents classed as choleratics do increase bile flow from the liver, they do little to enchance detoxifying enzyme systems, and they do not ensure the passage of bile from the intestines out of the rectum.
Bile is normally reabsorbed up to 9 or 10 times before working its way out of the intestines in faeces. The enzyme enhancing ability (increased production of GST) of the coffee enema is unique among choleratics. Because it does not allow reabsorption of toxic bile by the liver across the gut wall, it is an entirely effective means of detoxifying the blood stream.
Because clinical practice has shown coffee enemas to be well tolerated by patients when used as frequently as every 4 hours, the coffee enema may be classed as the only non-reabsorbed, effective, repeatable, choleratic in the medical literature.”
Readers, please do note that these enemas are safe only when used within the context of the combined regime of juices, high potassium, and a high micro-nutrient. For best benefits, do not neglect to cleanse the colon of the accumulated faecal matter by the application of suitable colon cleanser.
When I first introduced the use of coffee enemas twice a day in my Detoxification & Rejuvenation Program, which consists of fresh juices, potato soup, herbs, vitamins, etc, most people did not understand the need of the use of coffee enemas.
I recall visiting the hospital that follows Gerson Cancer Therapy, where they treat cancer patients using natural biological methods. I learned that they are using at least 5 coffee enemas a day as part of the therapy!
Now, many in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines, through our health education, have experienced the wonderful detoxifying effect upon the liver and the blood through the administration of a coffee enema.
