Talk of Dr. Shinya.

first came to America in 1963 after completing my medical studies at Juntendo University in Tokyo in 1960/ I wanted to explore new technical medical innovations. I arrived at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York and completed a surgical residency. In 1967, during my residency, I became interested in fiberoptic endoscoy. I then went on to develop the technique of colonoscopy using a flexible fiberoptic scope. This also enabled me to develop a technique for removing colonic polyps (1969). Up to that time major abdominal surgery was being performed to remove these polyps

Since that time, I have performed over 300,000 endoscopic procedures in Japan and the U.S. Over the course of time, I became aware that the stomach and intestinal phases of digestion could predict a patient’s general Health condition. We could also predict which of our patients might suffer from neoplastic or degenerative diseases. I became confident that by maintaining proper diet, lifestyle, and elimination habits we could influence a patients health and longevity.

Patients suffering from degenerative, inflammatory and neo plastic disorders are likely to have intestinal dysfunction. These patients undoubtedly have a very poor intestinal phase of digestion. In 1975, the McGovern report demonstrated the serious relationship between diet and disease. The government recognized that nutritional improvements in the diet would lead to prevention of disease and possibly be helpful in its treatment. In Japan, especially educating the population to proper diet and elimination habits would be of great importance.

With regard to elimination habits and the protection of the intestinal milieu, coffee enemas have proved to be of great benefit. 800-1200 cc of coffee enemas improve constipation and prevents fecal impaction. The enema cleans out the colon effectively. This can be done once a day (for example, in the evening after dinner). It is a simple and safe procedure. I recommend this method over simple laxatives since it is more effective. People with poor bowel habits over time, suffer from bloating, headaches, dizziness and fatigue.

The imbalance in the gut leads to the production of large amounts of intestinal gases including hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and methane. This eventually leads to a degradation of intestinal function. It also produces free radicals and it takes a lot of energy to detoxify and neutralize these products. Feces contain a large amount of toxins and waste products and should be eliminated regularly within 12-23 hours.

have recently published six books on health and nutrition including coffee enema method, in Japan. They have become best sellers and are widely read and accepted. Currentl, these books are being translated into English and other languages.
