Guest guest Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 This is interesting. How much juice and how much olive oil? Did you pass any stones the next morning or in the following days? I had good results with a morning drink of 1Tbsp each lemon juice and olive oil, but then my GI tract (which was already inflamed, possibly due to h. pylori) got more inflamed. It has since calmed down some. I'm hoping to do a regular flush some time before summer--or at least go back to the gradual flush for a while. Margh ----- Original Message ----- From: Lucado gallstones Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2008 12:08 PM Subject: Olive oil and grapefruit juice Group: A couple of years ago, I had classic symptoms of gall stones. They worsened to the point of the beginnings of jaundice. I was very concerned that I would be losing my gall bladder (or worse). In doing some research, I learned of the homeopathic remedy of drinking olive oil and grapefruit juice before bedtime--an unappetizing prospect, but far preferable to surgery! To make a long story short, the treatment worked like magic. The pain and other symptoms literally disappeared overnight. To say that I was relieved is a huge understatement. To this day, I repeat the " flush " every few months, and have been trouble-free. I don't know that it would work for everyone, but I am glad that I gave it a try. It saved me a lot of time, money, and pain. Best wishes to all, R. Lucado Fort Worth, Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I used a formula I'd picked up here: http://curezone.com/gallstones/digest1.asp Half a cup of olive oil and half a cup of grapefruit juice. I used a salad cruet to shake it up it and drink from--worked pretty well, actually. The best tip was to hold my nose while drinking it. A weird nightcap, to be sure. The next day I passed some stones, including a pretty big one. I'm convinced it was the one that had been giving me trouble. Good riddance. > > This is interesting.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 dang, I did a flush last night. My first evacuation today was solid so no visible stones. I don't think this has happened before in the 10+ times I have done it. I wonder what I did wrong. I hope I get something from it, I had a very queezy night last night. I keep doing this because of the testimonials I read, but even when the outcome looks great I never feel any better for it. Did you even fast or use the epsom salt with your grapefruit/olive oil concoction? greg > > > > This is interesting.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Greg: Sorry to hear it's not working too well for you. I had had a light breakfast (toast) and skipped lunch the day of the flush; I was in too much pain to eat a lot anyway. No epsom salts. > > > > I used a formula I'd picked up here: > > http://curezone.com/gallstones/digest1.asp > > > > Half a cup of olive oil and half a cup of grapefruit juice.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 This is my first try with the cleanse and, since I haven't started yet (planned to do it today), after reading about the Zap daily and the parasite killing program am not too sure about the cleanse. I don't want to get sicker but the Zap sounds really odd to me and the other program would take several weeks. Any suggestions? Oh, the cleanse doesn't say anything about whether I can drink anything before beginning at 2: p m. Thanks in advance for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 There are many different kinds of cleanses and, I believe, most have been published here before. If you are new to this list and want to see some suggestions, send me a note privately (if you want) and I'll forward some previous info to you.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Cleanse will not hurt you - just be sure herbs are potent, that is good grade - Are u familiar with Dr 's cleanse? I've had success with 's regime- I felt an appreciable difference. good luck On Mar 13, 2008, at 7:36 AM, THE NUNNS wrote: > This is my first try with the cleanse and, since I haven't started > yet (planned to do it today), after reading about the Zap daily and > the parasite killing program am not too sure about the cleanse.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I appreciate you answering my mail. I went ahead with the cleanse (Epsom salts/apple juice/olive oil/lemon juice). Unbelievable what I passed thru the night and still am. Do you have info about how often this should be done? I have printed many pages of info and read nothing about how often to do the cleanse. By the way, I am on coumadin i.e. the reason for not using grapefruit juice. I don't know how this will effect my Pro-Time but will have it checked within the week to be sure. If you have info about that I would appreciate that too. Sincerely, Ilyene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Glad it helped...and I don't know if there's a prescribed interval for the flush, but I try to do it once every six to nine months. In general, I feel so much better that I don't want to subject myself to that yucky nightcap, but an ounce of prevention, etc. etc. In terms of other interactions, I'm afraid I couldn't hazard a guess. Hopefully someone else in the group can offer some insight. > > Do you have info about how often this should be > done?

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 After my GB attack, I did 3 flushes about a month apart. After that, my N.D. said I needed to " let my gallbladder rest " and she didn't want me to do any more. I think you just need to let your body tell you when or if you should do any more. Amber Do you have info about how often this should be done? Ilyene . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
