Top 10 Reasons to Cleanse with Ghee

by John Douillard on September 22, 2016 | 94 Comments

An Ayurvedic cleanse would not be an Ayurvedic cleanse if it did not call for the ingestion of melted ghee. Aside from being surprised by this seemingly unlikely protocol, many frown upon the use of ghee in general because it is a dairy product.

New research may prove this ancient Vedic cleansing technique to be even more credible than we originally thought!

As it turns out, the microbes in the gut actually produce their own ghee constituents, making ghee a familiar and welcome substance in the body. Let me explain.



The Ins and Outs of Ghee

Ghee is ubiquitous in Ayurvedic medicine and Indian cooking alike. An aromatic substance that is solid at room temperature and melts into a liquid as it warms, ghee is made by boiling off the milk solids from unsalted butter, leaving only the golden oil behind.

ghee cleanse butter heart melting imageGhee has a very high flash point of 485 degrees F., which makes it one of the best oils to use for cooking.

In Ayurveda, ghee is used as a carrier for the nutrients in herbs and to lubricate the intestinal tract and all the tissues inside the body. During an Ayurvedic cleanse, it is used as the preferred vehicle for oleation, a process of ingesting increasing amounts of oil over a series of mornings. This actually helps pull fat-soluble toxins (the stubborn ones – water-soluble toxins usually flush out with our urine) out of the cells (3) and triggers fat metabolism, a process whereby the body begins to burn its own fat for fuel.

I’ll talk more about the role of ghee in Ayurvedic detox in just a bit. First, let’s take a short dive into the molecular makeup of ghee, and I will tell you about its secret component.

The Active Ingredient – Also Made in Your Gut!

Let’s start with butter, the raw material from which ghee is made. The primary fatty acid in butter is called butyric acid, so named because it was first discovered in butter. Butyric acid, also known as butyrate, is a short chain fatty acid (SCFA) that the intestinal tract thrives on, as it helps to protect the integrity of the gut wall, and then some! (1)

Well, the process of making ghee yields an even more concentrated source of butyric acid than butter. But there is another source of butyric acid: the busy beneficial microbes in your gut.

How the Gut Bugs Make Ghee – and What They Do with It

Much of the healthy fiber that we eat directly feeds the intricate microbiology in the gut. In turn, the gut bugs convert this ingested fiber to butyric acid, the primary ingredient in ghee. Yep – the bugs in the gut are making their own ghee, or at least the major component of ghee! (4)

The cells of the colon use butyric acid as their preferred source of energy and their major agent for supporting the health and integrity of the intestinal wall. (1)

Studies show that having enough butyric acid in the gut is no laughing matter:

  • Research has shown that patients with unhealthy digestive tracts do not produce butyric acid, and have low levels of fatty acids or related oils in the gut. (1)
  • Interestingly, butyrate enemas (basically ghee enemas) and other related treatments are now being used for many gut-related health issues. (2)

In Ayurveda, taking ghee internally through ingestion and ghee enemas (Ayurvedic oil enemas are referred to as basti) has been done successfully for thousands of years to support intestinal health and function.

Here is just another way the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda has been proven by modern science. That is not to say that, just because something is ancient, we should all do it. It does, however, encourage us to look deeply into techniques that have lasted thousands of years and find the science behind them. Often times, the research provides fascinating explanation and support!

Read on to learn more about why ghee was chosen as the best oil to cleanse with.

A Goldmine of Nutrients

While ghee is one of the highest food sources of butyric acid, it is also packed with:

    • A full spectrum of short (SCFA), medium (MCFA) and long chain fatty acids (LCFA), both unsaturated and saturated
    • Omega 3 and Omega 9 essential fatty acids
    • Vitamins A, D, E and K
    • Ghee made from organic butter of pastured cows is one of the highest natural sources of CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) (5)
    • 9 phenolic antioxidants
    • Numerous other minerals

SCFA’s, like butyric acid in ghee, are used immediately by the body for energy and do not have to be broken down by bile to be digested and utilized, while MCFA’s require minimal digestion and LCFA’s require much digesting by the liver and gallbladder.

We Recommend

Why Colorado Cleanse?

This may also be why our gut bugs love butyrate so much that they make their own – because the cells of the colon use it instantly for energy.

As good fats go, ghee has it all!

Why Do A Ghee Cleanse?

Normally when we think of a cleanse, we may think of eliminating oils or fats from our diet. Ayurveda takes a different approach, instructing that we take increasing amounts of melted ghee every morning for a series of days and follow with a no-fat diet. The benefits of this protocol may have you rethinking your idea of detoxing, as the benefits extend far beyond flushing toxins, although that is certainly a part of it.

The Top 10 Reasons to Cleanse with Ghee

Here’s a list of the benefits of cleansing with ghee, explained in detail below:

  1. Flushes old bile from the body.
  2. Stimulates the liver to make new bile, so 94% of old toxic bile is not re-absorbed. (6)
  3. Scrubs the intestines of toxins and bad bugs.
  4. Supports the primary source of energy and immunity for the cells of the gut. (1)
  5. Supports the health of the beneficial bacteria in the gut who make butyrate. (1)
  6. Lubricates and softens the hardened tissues of the body.
  7. Pulls stored fat-soluble toxins and molecules of emotion out of the body. (3)
  8. Encourages fat metabolism and weight loss. (3)
  9. Supports stable mood and energy levels.
  10. Supports the body’s natural defense mechanisms against bad bacteria and overgrowth. (1)

Swap Old Bile for New

During an Ayurvedic cleanse, ghee is taken daily at increasing dosages to force the gallbladder to flush out its existing bile, which is often thick and viscous from multiple uses, and stimulate the liver to make new bile. Bile acts as an intestinal scrub and, in concert with the butyric acid from the ingested ghee, helps to support the health of the gut wall and the microbes who manufacture butyrate all along it.

Soften Hardened Tissues

Ghee also has a saturating effect, called oleation, on the body. This is a process whereby, during the cleansing period of taking ghee daily, the oil penetrates the soft tissues, lubricating and softening the hardened tissues of the entire body.

“Pull” Toxins Out of their Hiding Spots

The ghee has a lipophilic effect on other fatty acids and fatty toxins in the body (which are lipophilic, meaning they are attracted to other fats like ghee), acting like a chelating agent to pull stored fat-soluble toxins out of the body and back into the intestines for removal from the body. Molecules of emotion – which, according to Ayurveda, are also lipophilic and store in the fat cells – can also be “pulled” out of their hiding places using this method.

Ghee SpoonBurn Your Calm, Stable Fuel

During a ghee cleanse, the diet is classically one of no fat. Ingesting ghee first thing in the morning forces the body directly into a fat metabolic state. By not having any fat in the diet during the cleanse, the body quite naturally stays in a fat metabolic state. This allows for the burning of fat, a detoxification effect as mentioned above, and an experience of stable energy and mood.

The ancient wisdom of using ghee for cooking and cleansing may provide needed butyric acid that helps support the health, integrity, and function of the gut wall with extended benefits throughout the entire body.

    I’ve been vegan since October but am having severe digestive issues as of late. I feel like I need to do your Short Home Cleanse but do not know what I could use instead of the ghee in the mornings. Could I use coconut oil?

      Hi Ashley,
      Coconut oil isn’t exactly ideal for oleation because it is so easy to digest. It doesn’t work the gallbladder as much as other oils would. We usually suggest coconut oil to cleansers that have had their gallbladder removed or if they have major issues digesting fat. You will still have an effective cleanse with coconut oil, but it just won’t be as powerful. Other options that are as effective as ghee are: flax seed oil, olive oil, or rice bran oil.
      Hope this helps,
      Jen @ LifeSpa

    Great article. My question is, as ghee is a SCFA and is able to be used immediately as energy in the gut and doesn’t have to be broken down by bile, how does this relate to the answer regarding using a vegan oil source, and that ghee works the gall bladder, whereas coconut oil doesn’t? It sounds contradictory to me. If you could clarify this point a bit further, I’d appreciate it. Thanks!

      Great question.
      Ghee is comprised of full spectrum short, medium and long chain fatty acids, both unsaturated and saturated. Ghee contains Omega 3 and Omega 9 essential fatty acids along with vitamins A, D, E and K. Ghee, made from organic butter of pastured cows, is one of the highest natural sources of CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid). There are 9 phenolic anti-oxidants, as well as numerous other minerals are present in ghee.
      So to answer your question is that it does both. It delivers energy directly while also engaging the gall bladder.
      Hope this helps.
      Be well,

        I was having bad stomach pains for a long time, and ghee actually cured it. How do I know? My plan is simple: ghee/organic grass-fed butter is the last thing I eat in the day, before I go to bed. I load up on it. Allows my body to process it through sleep into the morning and “fast” on the ghee and fuel. It really works for me.

    We’re currently doing the 4 day cleanse, thank you so much for making that easily accessible. I have a doubt. “By not having any fat in the diet during the cleanse, the body quite naturally stays in a fat metabolic state.” Can you please explain how not having fat helps the body stay in a fat metabolic state? There are carbs in the kichdi, right? Won’t the body be using that?

      Hi Santhy,
      Drinking ghee in the morning puts your body into fat metabolism. If you do not take in more fat during the day, your body is going to burn stored fat in between meals.
      Eating 3 meals of kitchari keeps your body from going into starvation mode which would halt the cleansing process and trigger fat storage. If you eat fat at your meals, your body will slowly burn that fat in between meals instead of using stored fat.
      I hope that helps.
      Enjoy your cleanse!

    Hi, I just ordered the herbs and cannot wait to do the short home cleanse! This is my first time so should I just be having the kitchari for dinner? I plan on having the “all fruit meals ” for breakfast 2 of the days, but what are your other suggestions for breakfast and lunch? Thanks so much for all the great info and videos on your site!

      Hi Melissa,
      It sounds like you are planning to do the Nourish Meal Plan which is perfect for your first cleanse.
      While the base of this Meal Option is still ideally kitchari, if you need a change, you can substitute with a different small bean (please note that split yellow mung dahl beans are much more digestible than whole or sprouted mung beans) and a whole grain cooked together into an easily digestible, porridge-like consistency. You are also welcome to vary the spices used in your kitchari with blends like Southwest, Caribbean, Thai, and Cajun or to add simple herbs like cilantro or dill. To the kitchari base, you can add steamed seasonal vegetables and lean protein.
      If you prefer not to eat kitchari for breakfast, you can eat oatmeal or another gluten free whole grain porridge. All fruit meals are also an option – particularly for breakfast – if you have stable blood sugar.
      There are more specific meal inspirations in the Colorado Cleanse book as well.

    Hi John.
    I have a question. A few years ago I read that the ghee today, organic or not, does not have the same properties and therefore the same effect on us because laws make us pasteurized the milk first and this just does not allow the ghee to act in the same way upon us. Do you have a comment. I am not unfamiliar with Ayurveda as I lived at an ashram for 25 years 10 years ago. I fully believe in it.

    Hi,

    I have done several Colorado Cleanses and have used ghee with each one. I don’t have a gallbladder and haven’t had any problems with using the ghee. So long as I don’t have any problems with the ghee, should I continue to use it? Is ghee still more beneficial than coconut oil for those who don’t have gallbladders but tolerate the ghee well?

    Thank you for all that you do, Dr. Douillard. My health and lifestyle has improved dramatically over the past few years through your guidance.

    Great article. Thank you Dr. John!

    Over the past few years, I’ve heard different opinions regarding the type of meals one should have during the ghee cleanse. I’ve done many long ghee cleanses (5 days of ghee before virechana) prior to panchakarma. Each clinic seems to have its own dos and don’ts when it comes to the diet part. So I would like to understand the following:

    Is it ideal to eat only fat-free kitchari during the long ghee cleanse? (That is, are the other foods such as steamed veggies and oatmeal there only for our comfort level – so we don’t feel deprived?)

    Is it ok to have some sugar-free lassi at lunch time? In some clinics it is encouraged…

    When I take ghee in the morning I am not hungry until lunch time. So I can take kitchari maximum 2x day. In fact I love the fact that I don’t have to cook and eat until lunch time! This also makes me think how nice it would be to eat a ghee-only breakfast (small amount: 2-3 tsp) even when one is not cleansing…:-). Or would that not be good to do for some reason?

    Sometimes I replace my evening kitchari with couscous – when I don’t have time for 30 minutes of cooking. You say that cleansing diet should not include any glutenous grains. Is couscous disturbing the effectiveness of my cleansing then? To be honest, it’s the only grain product I can eat in the evening without feeling heaviness in my intestines in the morning. Oatmeal makes me feel clogged up and lethargic (any time of day except lunch), and rice and dahl take long time to digest at night.

    So these are my cleansing dilemmas :-).

    Thanks again!

      Hi Lucie,
      Thanks for writing. Hopefully the answers below will help.
      Q: Is it ideal to eat only fat-free kitchari during the long ghee cleanse? (That is, are the other foods such as steamed veggies and oatmeal there only for our comfort level – so we don’t feel deprived?)
      A: Eating only kitchari without added fat during phase 2 of the cleanse is an excellent option for some people. However, for many people it is better to add other foods to the meal plan for a variety of reasons (unstable blood sugar, low body weight, etc.). It is very important not to push the body too hard during the cleanse, so if eating only kitchari causes great strain then it is best to add other foods. In times of stress our bodies will hold onto fat. A relaxed state is key for an effective cleanse.

      Q: Is it ok to have some sugar-free lassi at lunch time? In some clinics it is encouraged…
      A: This is not encouraged on the Colorado Cleanse as it is challenging for the digestive system. The goal is to allow digestion to rest so that your body can detoxify efficiently.

      Q: When I take ghee in the morning I am not hungry until lunch time. So I can take kitchari maximum 2x day. In fact I love the fact that I don’t have to cook and eat until lunch time! This also makes me think how nice it would be to eat a ghee-only breakfast (small amount: 2-3 tsp) even when one is not cleansing…:-). Or would that not be good to do for some reason?
      A: When you are cleansing, it is best to eat even a little breakfast to keep metabolism strong and digestion moving along.
      When you are not cleansing, it is ideal to divide your plate into about 50% leafy greens, 25% protein and 25% starch with some healthy fat added to the meal. On a regular basis, ghee alone is not a balanced meal. When you are not cleansing, adding ghee to your meals is great though!

      Q: Sometimes I replace my evening kitchari with couscous – when I don’t have time for 30 minutes of cooking. You say that cleansing diet should not include any glutenous grains. Is couscous disturbing the effectiveness of my cleansing then?
      A: During the main (ghee) cleanse the only golden rule is no fat which couscous would be fine since you know that it digests well for you.
      Be well,
      John

    ’m curious about this claim that Ancient Organics ghee is “500 times more potent than our previous brand…”
    I agree, Ancient Organics looks to be the best available commercially but what does this “500 times” mean? It sound just like advertising hype but that doesn’t sound like you. I make my own ghee out of the best quality, grass fed, organic butter available wherever I’m living (Australia, Northern California, Boulder…) according to Ayurvedic method taught to me by a dear friend who studied ongoingly with a serious Ayurvedic lineage. So is my ghee 500 times better? 1000 times better? Not better? What’s the story?

      Hi, maybe is means 500% better? This means 5x better – for examle if you compare the CLA content. Maybe the A.O. ghee has 5x more CLA…Just thinking what the 500 figure could relate to…

      I also make my own ghee – lots of it every summer – from grass fed raw organic butter. Here in Holland you can buy this from some farmers. I believe that it is available in most other countries where there are cows, only you have to go around and ask. You’d be surprised what you discover!

      The farm from which we buy the raw grass fed butter also cultures it (with beneficial microbe straines traditionally used for it, like in yogurt) – so it has extra CLA. I learned from an Indian ayurvedic dr that this is also how they made ghee in their family for centuries.

      When I lived in the US I noticed that Purity Farms then sold cultured unsalted org. butter. I used it many times to make ghee. But it is not raw and maybe not even grass fed :-(. I read somewhere that raw cream (from which butter is made) is not heated to as high a tempereature as milk during pasteurization…(Ramiel Nagel book perhaps).

      It is great that Life Spa now sells grass fed ghee – that makes it easy for many people to take advantage of it. I once lived in a country where it was really hard to get any good type of butter (no cows in that region) so I had to order from across the globe.

      Thanks for your comment. I’m referring to the difference in the conjugated linoleic acid content in the milk fat of cows that are grass-fed vs. grain-fed. The number “500” comes from this NIH study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10531600. Check out my article: https://lifespa.com/new-super-ghee-500-times-potent/ for more details.

      Hi Sierra,
      There are not set portions of kitchari for the cleanse as individual need vary greatly. Here are the general guidelines for figuring out the portion that is right for your body:
      1. Eat enough food at meals to stay satisfied until your next meal so that you do not need to snack. This may take a bit of experimenting.
      2. Try to make lunch your largest meal, breakfast medium sized and dinner the smallest.
      3. Chew your kitchari very well even though it doesn’t seem to require much chewing. This will help immensely with digestion and satiety.

      Elim 1 (http://store.lifespa.com/elim1.html) or Triphala can be taken to address occasional constipation – 1 to 2 capsules in the morning and 1 to 2 before bed.
      I hope that helps!

    I have sensitivity to cow’s milk and therefore avoid butter and dairy. Will ghee be safe for me to use as a cleanse?

      Hi Cheryl,
      That depends on which component of dairy your are sensitive to and your sensitivity level. Ghee is definitely a dairy product, but our Ancient Organics Ghee does not contain lactose or casein.
      I hope that helps.

      Hi Patrice,
      In Ayurveda, toxic emotions are said to be stored in the body as “mental ama”. Recent scientific research has now proven the existence of mental ama in the form of emotional chemicals trapped deep in the cells throughout the body. Please check out the following articles for more details:

      Hi Maria,
      The amount varies based on the individual and the length of the cleanse. You can find step by step instructions for a 4 day cleanse with ghee in our free Short Home Cleanse ebook (https://lifespa.com/cleansing/short-home-cleanse/).
      The general recommendations for the four day cleanse are:
      Day One: 2 tsp. of ghee
      Day Two: 4 tsp. of ghee
      Day Three: 6 tsp. of ghee
      Day Four: 9 tsp. of ghee
      Please keep in mind that these amounts may need to be increased or decreased based on how well your body tolerates the ghee.
      I hope that helps.

    I am confused by the idea that by pushing yourself into a fat-burning state you are able to eat carbs and proteins and expect your body to run off fat. That premise seems completely impossible for the average metabolism that is trained to burn glucose. Any clarity on this matter would be much appreciated – thank you!

    Can castor oil be used instead of ghee for those who are sensitive to dairy and can’t take butter?
    I’ve done ayurvedic castor oil cleanses in the past and found them very effective in releasing old stagnant bile along with conveniently acting as a very effective laxative. Are there any problems with using castor oil to pull fat soluble toxins out of the body?

      Hi Kalia,
      Olive oil and flax oil are the best substitutes for ghee. For a person who has had their gallbladder removed, coconut oil is a great replacement. Castor oil is not a comparable substitute.
      Thanks for writing. Let us know if you have more questions.

    HI John, I am in the middle of a 5 day ghee cleanse and enjoy doing them twice a year. You mentioned flax oil and olive oil are good substitutes for ghee. Are you saying they have all the same benefits as ghee? If so, then why is ghee the top pick? I personally use the ghee, however my husband is vegan and questions if the ghee is the best choice. I would love your perspective on this. Thank you.

    Dear john, i liked your article . It is very informative. Since i am new to Ayurveda , after reading your cleansing with ghee article i did some research on ghee on Ayurvedic sites. I believe the ghee used in Ayurveda routines and medicines is produced from native indian cows breed like gir cows and thapar cows not from other cows. The milk from these cows does not require pasturization becuse of its composition hence is medicinal and curative in nature. Please advise the same , i can give you the link of ayurvedic sites.

    Hello! I would like to try this cleanse but have 2 questions…

    1. I am not comfortable with drinking melted ghee alone, do you have other ways I could ingest this ( fat bomb recipes) perhaps?
    2. Can I use white or Brown rice , green lentils and tandoori spices as kitchari ( I am having difficulty finding the yellow lentils )?

    Thank you kindly
    Iliana 🙂

    • John Douillard says

      March 7, 2016 at 3:04 pm

      Hi Iliana, thanks for your note and here are the answers to your questions:

      • If it’s difficult for you to drink plain melted ghee, add ½ cup of warm rice, almond, coconut, or
      organic vat-pasteurized, non-homogenized cow’s milk. Warm the ghee and the milk (or milk
      alternative) to the same temperature so they mix easily, and then drink it all at once. If needed,
      you can add a pinch of nutmeg, cinnamon, and/or cardamom.
      • Try holding your nose while sipping the ghee.
      • Use flax seed, coconut, or olive oil if you cannot use ghee
      • If nausea occurs, sip ½–1 cup of warm-to-hot water with fresh lemon juice and grated ginger
      root. Eat a little kitchari a half hour after drinking the ghee even if you feel full. This helps settle
      the stomach. Take less ghee the next morning.
      • Only increase the dose of ghee each day if you are tolerating it. If you experience loose,
      uncomfortable stools, do not increase the dose of ghee the next morning. Decrease the ghee to
      a dose that is comfortable for you. Stay at the current dose until you are comfortable and then
      increase.

      I don’t recommend that you substitute another bean or lentil for the organic split yellow mung beans as these are very easy to digest and nutritious. You can purchase the mung beans from us, if that’s convenient, and add organic brown or white basmati rice to make your own kitchari.

      Be well,
      Dr. John

I would so love to be rid of these stones and get back to being able to digest better again! Any sort of advice would help greatly, I would like to do a cleanse but maybe a slower process cleanse would be better since I am nursing?

Butter contains butterfat, milk solids and water, ghee is pure butterfat cooked longer, until all moisture is removed and the milk solids are caramelized and then filtered out. While butter may not necessarily bad for you, ghee has benefits that make it healthier than regular butter.

Don’t eat wheat, soy, corn, sugar, chocolate, coffee, milk – ghee is good. If your blood pressure is OKAY, licorice root at dinner time. Don’t eat spicy-hot food or vinegar. Lower salt in food. Get more fiber so you are regular in the bathroom (1-3 bowel movements each day).

    Hi Great thread thank you. I have done a panchakarma around 4 years ago, with a week of drinking ghee each early morning. I would like to do another but am unsure about the ghee drinking because i experienced considerable discomfort and a lot of swelling in my upper belly about 20 minutes after drinking the ghee along with huge drowsiness. This would last 2-4 hours. So question – is this swelling normal? Is it a sign i should avoid the ghee drinking? Should i let it stop me doing another panchakarma? I do experience this swelling in a milder form generally and wonder if i have compromised ability to digest fats. Many thanks Jo

    • John Douillard says

      February 9, 2017 at 12:31 pm

      If you would like to try the cleanse again keep the following in mind. There are a couple reasons why migraines occur during a cleanse. A common reason is stopping coffee, smoking, alcohol and sugar cold turkey the first day of the cleanse. If you try the cleanse again I would try weening off those things before doing the cleanse. Another common reason for migraines is not getting enough food and protein once you begin the cleanse diet. The best thing to do here is to add a lean meat or protein shake to your meals. Steamed vegetables along with the Kitchari can be helpful to make the meal satisfying. One thing that gets neglected while trying to track all pieces of the cleanse is making sure you’re hydrated by drinking enough water. Good luck on your next cleanse!

      Hi Christopher,
      Thanks for your question. Generally speaking, Dr. Douillard recommends smoothies over juices because you still ingest the fiber content with smoothies. This is true with cleansing as well. The Green Tonic and Beet Tonics are both an integral part of our Colorado Cleanse–both of which can be ingested as a smoothie to include the fiber content. The reason we suggest fiber-filled smoothies over fiber-less juices during cleanses is that the fiber is used to help “scrub” the intestinal villi and wall as part of the cleansing process. With that in mind, we highly support the use of greens and tart apple as they are integral to the Green Tonic!
      Be Well.
