The worst that has happened to me is that I didn't feel well *before* actually taking the olive oil and pink grapefruit juice, and I halted the procedure until another time when I could do it and feel okay. In other words, the simple eating and fasting the day of the flush made me ill (I had other physical problems which made fasting and a no protein diet tricky). >A few more questions: can magnesium sulfate be used instead of epsom salts ? What is ornithine? will any sleeping pills work? are they really necessary? Here is a good motto to keep in mind: * " If all else fails, follow directions. " * If you don't get what I mean, I mean simply FOLLOW DIRECTIONS. If substitutions were as good as the formula, they are either untested or they would be listed. Ornithine is (I believe) an amino acid which helps the body to get rid of the wastes from dead and dying parasites (ammonia) and other toxins that may come from your liver when you flush. My impression from reading is that when these toxins are present in the blood circulating, they are irritating and can keep you awake. Gilbert OUT OF THE BOX!

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 > can magnesium sulfate be used instead of epsom salts ? YES! magnesium sulfate = epsom salts Magnesium sulfate is chemical name for epsom salts. Magnesium sulfate is just another name for the same thing.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2003 Report Share Posted March 9, 2003 How important is it to do a liver flush before the actual gallstone flush? I did read a couple of pages on this and wondering if anyone had done the liver flush first. As I said before I am scared of getting a bad gallstone attack and ending up in the ER. From what I read only very few people experience pain like this but knowing my luck. Thanks the replies I received. B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 , I suggest that the first thing you need to do is look at your diet. There are ways of controlling weight without consuming saturated fats. A book by Holford (Low GL diet) or the Rosendale diet will explain it to you. There is no sense in cleansing the liver/no gallbladder if you are going to contnue the insults with saturated fats from Atkins. You may want to take some straight vinegar (diluted 1: with water) AFTER your meals to see if your stomach acidity is low. The symptoms are the same as high acidity and many MD confuse them. If you feel better you amay be low. If you get relief , take 1-3 tablets of Betaine Hydrochloride AFTER your meals. If it gets worse, take 1/4 potassium bicarbonate after meals. Take digestive enzymes (2-3) BEFORE your meals and check the overall response. Regards gallbladder flush Hi to all, I'm new to the group and have a question. I have been suffering from severe acid reflux(or so the doctors have diagnosed me) for about 2 years now. I had my GB removed in 2000 but continued to do the Atkins diet which is VERY fat laden. I feel that I still have stones and have a system full of fat. I'd like to try the gb flush but do not have the recipe. Plus need to know if it is safe.
