Acidophilus enema recipe

Has anyone ever tried an acidophilus enema and if so what was it like or do for you and what was the recipe you used?

Have a yogurt and milk enema. That's basically the same thing.

Would you get some of the "Milk & Molasses" effect from that?

I haven't tried a "real" acidophilus enema, but I did try at one point inserting a couple of capsules of probiotics in the rectum and putting some water in there to help them dissolve. That was back when it was suggested that probiotics might help my IBS. Taking them orally for a couple of weeks didn't seem to make a difference, so I figured I'd try from both ends. That didn't help either, so I stopped.

NO. I have done the milk and yogurt enema many times It is very smooth.

You do have several return trips to the toilet.

I've tried an enema with a little kiffier added to it. Didn't notice any different effects. Never took one that was a high percentage of kiffier nor have I added acidophilus capsules to it though I've often thought it might be a good idea. I do find that after a couple of 2-3 qt enemas which I've retained for 15-20 minutes produces diarrhea for the next day and possibly the acidophilus might be a good idea to restore intestinal flora back to normal. That's one reason why I don't use soap, so not to trash my gut bacteria any more than necessary.
