"Mom's Soapy Enema" During the forties and fifties ivory bar soap was probably the most often used soap for enemas.  It was advertised at 44/100% pure which is probably why it was used so often by mom & grandma for intestinal cleansing. 

Many can remember the distinct smell of the Ivory soap as it was being stirred in the warm water waiting to be poured into the enema bag. The longer the bar is stirred in the warm water the stronger the solution will be.

This is the one that most  Mom's & Grandma's used for there cleansing enemas on themselves and family members.

Enema Recipe:

Use 1/16 to 1/4 of a bar of Ivory bar soap grated and dissolved in a cup or two of 120º Fahrenheit water-- when dissolved, then add  two teaspoons sea salt and enough warm water(103º Fahrenheit) to make two quarts.

Cool to 103º Fahrenheit, pour into enema bag
Add extra warm filtered water to finish filling bag and correct temperature.
