Uncharted Recipe - cornstarch

Has anyone tried cornstarch dissolved in water (boiled then cooled) as an enema solution? The consistency can be very thick, depending on mix ratio. Application would have to be via syringe type enema, I think.

Just seems it would offer an interesting sensation. Mild? Cramping?

Not sure if there are any health risks. Definitely a good medium for growing bacteria.

Probably not an issue when done with a good H20 flush afterwards.

Appreciate any observations/experience.

Cornstarch enemas were a standard remedy for controlling diareaha in the old days. I remember reading about them in my mom's old "home medical" book that was originally published back in the 1930's and reisued in 1953 when my mom bought it from a travelling salesman.

I don't remember where I saw it ( possibly one of the old Yahoo enema groups)but I remember a recipe involving corn starch for a thick enema for those who wanted to simulate the consistency of a Barium enema. It was thin enough to use a normal bag, but got thicker once administered. A nozzle with fairly large holes was needed to avoid clogging the nozzle.

Another simulated Barium involved heavy cream warmed up and administered with a regular bag.

Pudding, yes pudding, will give the same sensation as corn starch but has to be administered with some type of injection device.

Corn Starch. why not try Jello partially cooled and jelled.

No one allergic to sugar should try anything with high sugar content.....

They make sugar free jello and pudding now, for those who need or want to experiment.

Potato starch works better than corn starch. Dissolve a tablespoon in some cool water, just enough to completely dissolve the starch, then add 8 to 10 ounces of boiling water and mix well. Let this cool to 104 degrees and use a bulb syringe to inject it. If done at bedtime, it will be completely or almost completely absorbed by the time you wake up. It is a remedy for diarrhea. It is called an emollient enema and is to be retained. Similarly, you can soak flaxseeds in hot water, strain the seeds through a cheesecloth once the water cools and inject this enema with a bulb syringe. Slippery Elm bark powder dissolved in warm water is another recipe for an emollient enema. As a child, I was forced to accept daily morning starch enemas for a number of weeks for chronic diarrhea caused by too many antibiotics. I hated having to retain the enemas, but secretly came to enjoy the insertion of the short, bulb nozzle and the feel of the warm, thick liquid flowing through my anus as mom slowly squeezed the bulb.
