Dr. Jay Davidson is hosting a free on-line summit called The Detox Project from September 26th – October 3 2016. You can sign up by clicking the link above.
MSIDS sufferers require treatment that not only kills pathogens but is also able to clear these dead pathogens from the body. This is where detoxing comes into play. While the mainstream medical community views detoxing as quackery, those of us infected understand quite up close and personal the Herxheimer Reaction where we have an autoimmune type response when our immune system finally recognizes the dead pathogens floating around in our blood stream. For more information on the Herxheimer Reaction see: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2015/08/15/herxheimer-die-off-reaction-explained/
The MSIDS (multi systemic infectious disease syndrome – or Lyme with friends) patient learns fairly quickly that treatment includes killing pathogens, detoxifying, and supporting the body.

There are a thousand ways to do all of these things and many are listed in the above article, but one that has much success is the coffee enema. Unlike a standard enema, only 1-2 Cups of organic, cooled, coffee is used and held for approximately 15 minutes. It’s purpose is also slightly different in that the coffee enema is absorbed into the enter-hepatic system which causes the liver ducts and bile ducts to empty toxins into the sigmoid colon. Also, the alkaloids in the caffeine stimulate production of glutathione-S-transferase, an enzyme that encourages detoxification. And, unlike drinking the coffee, which has to travel through the digestive tract, the coffee enema remains in the sigmoid colon – so it’s safe for those sensitive to caffeine, but if you still feel the effects of being wired, reduce the coffee amount by half for a few days or weeks. You can gradually increase as the body adjusts.
In the following video, Dr. Jay Davidson explains what he considers to be some missing links in standard coffee enema practice. For one, he feels it important to do two enemas back to back. He also recommends taking activated charcoal to bind with the toxins that are released by the enema. He recommends taking a few tabs prior to and after the enema for best results. He gives trusted brands as well as information on where to get supplies. And lastly he recommends taking LB(Liver Gallbladder by Systemic Formulas) to soften the thick bile for a greater release. He recommends taking this a week prior to taking the enema.
