Stones and other things

[Guest guest]

In the middle of the interesting discussion about stones, let's just

remember that the liver/gallbladder cleanse is not only about

removing previously formed round-shaped objects that wouldn't

otherwise have come out: it's also about fighting fatty livers and

otherwise removing excess cholesterol and perhaps other substances.

Some of what comes out is chaff, and is claimed to be as important to

get out as the stones, and maybe even some of the stones are formed

during the night of the cleanse (I'm not arguing for it).

Hedge,

You are absolutely right. Another thing is to remember that stones

will continue to form and cleansing must become a life long thing.

Some doctors think that once you hit the 'middle age' or whenever you

start to have stone problems, that your gallbladder is 'diseased' and

will always continue to produce more stones. This is why the general

medical field does not just remove the stones out of the gb. They

feel that the damaged walls of the gb will just continue to make more

stones (no matter what your diet is) and you will just have the

problem in a few months again anyway. I am really starting to believe

that. People reporting that after doing 15-20 cleanses, they are

still eliminating hundreds of stones. Even with a strict diet. This

seems like a good reason for some people to just remove the gb and be

done with it. Others, like this group, think that the problem of

producing stones at the pain producing rate can be stopped or slowed

down drastically. I think it depends largely on the individuals body

and/or condition of gb wall linings, etc. For me personally, the jury

is still out. I will try this first but I always have my doc ready to

cut the thing out if I get tired of messing with the cleansing so

often and the results aren't up to my personal satisfaction.
