The Microbiome and Colonic Hydrotherapy

DOES IT WASH OUT THE GOOD BACTERIA?

Conscious Coffins

Celebrate Life

There is a lot of work that goes into the arrangements when someone passes away. Dolores Prendeville sat down with me to discuss the importance of talking about loss and death and how we can make it easier on grieving families. Dolores provides eco-friendly flat pack coffins that retail at only 399 euros. This makes the coffins socially and environmentally conscious. Most coffins retail at more than double this price, so why wouldn’t you want to go eco-friendly?

The research into the microbiome is still in its early days. Only 500 species of microbes have been identified to date. Studies show that we are host to trillions of colonies of trillions of bacteria. These microbes populate the entire digestive tract. Not just the intestines. They regenerate themselves constantly.

It would seem impossible for a gentle flow of water to flush out every microbe inhabiting our intestines. Every endoscopy device now has a water flow attached to it which cleanses the walls as the scope progresses. If this were detrimental to the microbiome, it would hardly be the standard.

Also, in the 1990s, colonic irrigation was purchased by spas and salons without any training or understanding of its effects or knowledge of the digestive system or the microbiome. Often, clients may have been having treatments too frequently in order to make a profit for the business without any regard to whether it was best practice or in the best interest of the client. In this situation, overuse could lead to a diminished microbiome and lower immunity. This can be said of most things. It’s good to wash our hands, but washing them too often is detrimental.

Dolores is an Irish supplier of these coffins that are manufactured in Holland. She explains that the assembly is quick and easy and you don’t necessarily need any special tools, though an electric screwdriver is handy. The coffins are made of sustainable, untreated poplar wood and suitable for both burial and cremation. They are plain in design, yet the sentiment is that you can decorate them how you want. They can be personalised and allude to fond memories of the ones who have passed. It makes death more of a celebration of life and a time to come together and support one another along with our beautiful planet!

Now thanks to rigorous training and in-depth study of anatomy and physiology, Colonic therapists are aware of the effects and only offer treatments after a comprehensive consultation, with sufficient time between treatments. Probiotics are usually given after treatments as a precaution, along with lifestyle and food recommendations. It makes sense to add the beneficial bacteria into a cleaner environment where they are more likely to thrive.
