Then strain it using a metal strainer. Let the coffee cool to comfortable temperature. Add 3-10 drops of tangerine oil to the coffee solution, which enhance the absorption of the coffee. Pour the coffee into the bag. Release the air. Lubricant the end of the hose as well as the anus. Lie down on one side, pull the knees up, and gently insert 4 to 6 inches into the colon. Allowing a little coffee to flow will help the process. Once inserted, allow the coffee to flow in slowly, either using the clamp or squeezing the hose with the fingers to regulate it. If pressure is not comfortable, turn it off, allow the pressure to subside, then begin again at a slower rate. Once the coffee is in the colon, start the timer.

B vitamins
it is better that it contains the natural form of folate, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, not folic acid. For vitamin B12, cyanocobalamin is the most commonly used but not found in nature. Its most desirable form is methylcobalamin, or hydroxocobalamin or adenosylcobalamin. 1-5 mg B12 by injection is a foolproof method. minerals
1. magnesium: 150-800mg a day. good for depressin and premenstrual symptoms. magnesium citrate and magnesium oxide provide a nice laxative side benefit.
2.zinc: plays a part in controlling body's response to stress. zinc deficiency lead to depression, ADHD, memory issue, seizures, aggression and violence. optimal range is 15-30 mg per day. zinc gluconate is an optimal form. Some researchers point out that women turns to have too much zinc while man turns to have too less zinc.
3. copper: 1-3 mg per day.
4. selenium: sodium selenite can be toxic. Opt for a chelated form, preferably selenomethionine or selenium glycinate. important in the conversion of thyroid hormone thyroxine T4 to its active form T3. Deficiency leads to poor mood. It is ideal for anxious and depressive individuals who also have low thyroid function and/or low T3 levels.
5. fatty acid: use fish oil for depression and anxiety. A therapeutic dosage of fish oil is 1-3 g of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in a three to two ratio. Companies use a process of filtration is best. Extraction usign nontoxic carbon dioxide at high pressure, or low-temperature extraction called supercritical extraction is acceptable too.
6. evening primrose oil: rich source of omega-6 gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and can address a wide variety of health problems, from brittle nails and hair, eczema, premenstrural syndrome, and menopausal symptoms to rheumatoid arthritis.another resouce says that the conclusion about its effectiveness is incinvlusive. buy organic, start with 500 mg twice daily.This may interacts with some medications for depression and bipolar, thereof it is better to take it when not taking medication.
7. cod liver oil: reduce inflammation, support eye health, improve depression.look for a natually produced product using a filtering process that retains the natural vitamins. Aim with a start of at least 2500 IUs of vitamin A and 250 IUs of vitamin D per teaspoon.
8. Adrenal cortex<: must come from pastured animals. helpful for depressive symtoms. begin with one twice daily.
9. Hypothalamus: take one to four for agitation and acute anxiety along with one twice daily.
Additional Supplements to consider
1. SAMe: natually occuring moleculte synthesized by the one-carbon cycle. precursors to many key molecules including creatine, co-Q10. try 400-1600 mg per day. effectiveness inconclusive.
2. L-theanine: a calming amino acide found primarily in tea.It promate alpha brain wave, which reduce anxiety and support a focused mindset. start with 1-200 mg twice daily. Take Mg-L-Theanine is better since killing two birds with one stone.144mg of Elemental magnesium per 2,000mg of Magnesium L-Threonate. helps with sleep.
3. N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). replenish the intracellular levels of natural antioxidant glutathione (GSH), control the expression of genes related to inflammatory response. airm for 600-1800 mg per day. Graham described six studies that found NAC had positive effects on negative symptoms (apathy, blunted emotions, etc.) and/or cognition in patients with schizophrenia. The dosage in these studies was usually 2 grams/day for 24 weeks.
4. Rhodiola rosea, also called Arctic root or golden root, increase resistance to stress.start with 100 mg once a day for a week, then increase the dosage by 100 mg evey week, up to 400 mg a day. Seek products that contain 2-3 percent rosavin and 0.8 to 1 percent salidroside. It might interfere with medications related to depression and bipolar. look for brand that carry the USP or NSF seal, which might ensure a better quality. best to take on an empty stomach but not before bedtime
5. curcumin: use eat it in cooking, or take 500 to 1000 mg twice daily.
6. probiotics: look for high-quality probiotics that contain a variety of strains, including L. paracasei, L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus, L. johnsonii, L. fermentum, L. reuteri, L. plantarum, B. longum, B. animalis. B: Bifidobacterium. L: Lactobacillus.
7. If symtoms are linked to period in intensity or frequency, start with maca and progress to chaste tree. Maca is a root that belongs to the radish family and is grown in the mountains of Peru. Also known as Peruvian ginseng. it can nourish and balance the body's hormone system and help cope with stress. used a particular gelatinized product by Natural Health International. If it wasn’t gelatinized, meaning it wasn’t cooked. It should not be consumed raw. Either boil it before eating, or put your oven on 350 and roast it 10 minutes, stir it around and roast it for 10 more minutes. Then it will be safe to consume.
8. Chaste tree, also called vitex agnus-castus, widely used to treat acne, digestive complaints, menstrual irregularities, permenstrural syndrome (PMS), infertility. Act as a hormone balancer. 150-250 mg containing 30-40 mg of dried fruit extract.
9. inositol: improve insuline sensitity, reduce male hormones. combining myo-inositol and d-chiro-inositol in a 40:1 ratio is most effective for hormone rebalancing.
10. Ashwagandha: often used in generalized anxiety disorder. may make sleepy.
Equipment
Fisher Wallace Stimulator. To treat depression or anxiety, patients should use the Fisher Wallace Stimulator® twice a day for 20 minutes on Level 2, once after waking up for the day and again before bed. To treat insomnia only, patients should use the device for 20 minutes on Level 2 before bed. It is important to create a consistent routine of daily usage.
https://www.fisherwallace.com/pages/treatment-instructions soy can inhibit thyroid and pancreatic enzymes.
liver is a lost super food and the best multivitamin money can buy. incorporate liver powder into soups, teas or even smoothies. start with 1 tablespoon twice a week.
resistant starch is not enzymatically broken down and serves as a source of fiber in the intestines that has the power to produce anti-inflammatory saturated fats. After one month of a no-grain, no-added-sugar, high-natural-fat diet, introducing resistant starch can contribute to beneficial changes in the intestine that contribute to blood sugar balance and metabolism support. Cooled white potatoes and white rice, the cooling process increases the resistant starch. Green plantains are another source of resistant starch. A shortcut is potato starch. Start with one teaspoon daily in food or in water, and can work up to four if no gas or bloating.
thyroid function test by TSH (usually included in routine test; optimal less than 2uM/ml), free T4 (optimal more than 1.1 ng/dL), free T3 (optimal more than 3 pg/ml),reverse T3 (optimal less than 10:1 ratio of RT3:FT3), thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TOPAB) (optimal less than 4IU/ml or negative), thyroglobulin antibodies (TGAB) (optimal less than 4IU/ml or negative)
methylation MTHFR mutation test: 1298 and C677 gene locations. only 5 patients who do not have a mutation at both locations. If mutation is found on one or both locations, then supplement activated folate (methylfolate) and its partner B12.
vitamin B12 deficiency check by homocysteine (7-10 micromoles/L), and methylmalonic acid (0.08-0.56 mmol/L)
hs-CRP (high sensitive C-reactive protein), a liver marker for general inflammatory messengers, ideally 0.00-1.0 mg/L
fasting glucose (usually included in routine test), HgA1C (give an average of blood sugar levels over the past 90 days, 5.8-5.2 percent). fasting glucose: 70-85 mg/dL, fasting insulin: less than 6 uIU/ml.
vitamin D, 25OH, usually is included in the routine test, normal range is 50-80 ng/ml. Need to check its receptor-activating metabolite (1,25) too. 1,25 should be within normal range.
Test adrenal function through levels of adrenal hormone in saliva and urine can be just visual confirmation of known fact: we are under chronic stress. A screening test of salivary cortisol measures levels of the stress hormone cortisol at four points in the day (8 am, noon, 4 pm and 11 pm). The information usually is useful to explain symptoms and their timing because the pattern of cortisol output change throughout the say, and should be naturally be higher in the morning and lower at night. Just spit into a test tube and mail them to the lab. Similar test may be done on progesterone and estrogen in the week before the menstrual cycle. These tests should be done after the thirty days of the program, particularly if sleep-related symptoms persist.
stool PCR test for gut microbiota evaluation. Best to do after the thirty days program.
Urinary organic acid test. It offers a view of metabolic processes. This is rarely ordered unless complex fatigue and cognitive symptoms.
aspartame sold under the trade name of NutraSweet, Equal, Canderel, makes depression worse. responsible for 80% food-related adverse reactions reported to FDA.
Saccharin (tang 2 jing1), trade name Sweet'n Low, might cause cancer, affect gut bacteria balance. FDA recommend less than 2.3 mg/lb/day.
sucralose, trade name Splenda. When heated to above 120 Celsius degree, it will lead to creation of potentially carcinogenic products. be careful with sucralose-containing canned foods or baked goods. It also might have negative effect on gut health. Though zero calorie, it affected blood sugar and insulin levels in a small study.
acesulfame potassium, appearing in the ingredient list as Ace-K, or acesulfame K, 0-9 mg/kg/day is considered safe by EFSA. FDA gives a broader range up to 15 mg. in lab animals, break down of Ace-K may lead to thyroid damage. Other concerns includes cancer, hormone disruption and risks to pregnant people.
Neotame, based on Aspartame. 0.3mg/kg/day. It may affect gut microorganism.
Stevia, sugar substitute from the leaves of the stevia plant. It has no calories. FDA only approves its purified form, stevioside or rebaudioside (Reb-A) as safe to use. It appears in the ingredient list as stevia extract or Stevia rebaudiana. You can cook with it, but baking might be tricky. Sweeteners made with Reb-A: Truvia (blend of Reb-A and erythritol), Stevia in the Raw (blend of Reb-A and dextrose or maltodectrin) . Benefit: lower insulin and glucose level, lower bad cholesterol level and triglycerides with no negative side effects. Increase good (HDL) cholesterol level, fight for certain cancers. Concerns: harm kidneys, reproductive system, cardiovascular system, drop blood pressure too low. It belongs non-nutritive sweeteners, which may disrupt beneficial intestinal flora, induce glucose intolerance and metabolic disorders.
Xylitol. Sweetness comparable to table sugar but with fewer calories. Prevent tooth decay. It may have antioxidant properties.
It is found in gum, breath mints, baked goods, mouth wash, toothpaste, dietary supplements, sugar-free desserts etc.
similar products: Sorbitol, Erythritol
30-40 gram might be too much and are linked to negative health effects.
