Bolus Herbs
A bolus is a suppository. It is made by combining powdered herbs with cocoa butter. The two are mixed together until it is the
consistency of stiff pie dough. It is then refrigerated to harden and preserve. Allow to come to room temperature before use.
Roll into strips and cut into pieces about one inch long. Boluses are inserted into the rectum for treating hemorrhoids, and into
the vagina for treating vaginal infections and irritations, as well as tumors. Boluses are used at night. The cocoa butter will of
course melt with your body heat, so take precautions to protect clothing and bedding. Residues of the bolus should be rinsed
away the next morning.
