How to make your own herbal suppositories

With our current levels of malnutrition and gut degradation, it is virtually impossible to make a health transformation using our mouths alone. Supplements and nutrients inserted rectally have the benefit of crossing the blood brain barrier almost instantly, and bypassing the process of digestion. One advantage of making your own suppositories is you have full control of what ingredients to use to suit your unique needs. These methods of herbal application can be quite useful and very effective when dealing with specific local issues and for treating folks who are unable to take an oral remedy for various reasons.

What are herbal suppositories?

Basically, a suppository is a single dose bolus or herbal mass made of solid oils or gelatinous semi solids containing herbs and/or essential oils that will melt at body temperature when placed in a body orifice other than the mouth.

Here is how to make herbal suppositories:

You need:

• About 4 oz Coconut Oil (The benefits of using coconut oil is that it most likely contains close to zero levels of heavy metals, and has anti-parasitic and anti-bacterial properties)

• About 5 drops of Herbal tincture or 2-3 drops essential oil or 1 teaspoon powdered herbs of your choice

• Optional: Aloe Vera Gel

• Plastic or aluminium foil (you also can use molds or small ice cube trays if available)

Mix the coconut oil with the herbal supplement of your choice. Warming the coconut oil makes it easier to mix with the herbs.

Chill coconut oil/herb mixture in a glass jar until it turns firm and waxy, than shape small portions with a spoon into bullet or torpedo shapes about an inch long.

Do this on small squares of plastic or aluminium foil. The foil will help you produce the shapes, slightly pointed at one end.

Put the suppositories in a small freezer-proof container.

Place the container into the freezer and within 10 minutes they should be firm enough to insert. Remove the foil before insert.
