First flush -- feeling great

[Guest guest]

Hi all ... thought I'd share experience of my first flush undertaken

a week ago. It's been a real turning point in my life and I haven't

felt so well in years.

By way of background I'm 40, male, and had three severe GB attacks

about three months ago. Ultrasound detected a polyp but there was no

mention of stones although the surgeon told me the pains I had would

have been associated with passing a stone.

With a radical diet change I managed to avoid any more pains and

resisted the surgeon's burning desire to cut out my gallbladder. I

was right for about 10 weeks but got a few niggles a couple weeks

back so decided to brave up for a flush.

I followed one in Cabot's Liver and Bowel book -- basically

three tablespoons of olive oil and three of lemon juice each 15

minutes until I'd consumed a total of about 300ml Olive Oil and then

took the remainder of the initial 500ml of Lemon juice.

It took 2.5-3 hours to ingest it all -- I started about noonish and

finished the foul muck mid-afternoon.

I'd had a light breakfast that morning and by 5pm I was hungry

although quite naseous ... I think I went wrong in trying to have a

few mouthfuls of steamed veges and by 6pm was violently ill and spent

a good 15 minutes peering down the toilet bowl.

About an hour later my rear-end exploded and there was so much muck I

would have never seen any stones (and I wasn't going looking too hard

either).

Anyways the next morning the old bowels rattled again and I gave

birth to about 8 or 10 obvious stones --- about the size of beans,

dark green and floating on the top of everything else.

During the rest of the day the bowels moved another three times and I

caught glimpses of another one or two stones.

While I didn't see the hundreds reported by others this has still

been one of the best things I've done for a long time.

The flush was on the Thursday, apart from a few controlled toilet

visits I was reasonably well on the Friday but on Saturday took on a

whole new lease of life. It's now a week on, I've been eating mainly

fruit, vegetables and salads. I'm not only feeling incredibly well

but a lot of people have commented on how well I look.

Sorry to ramble on but I can thoroughly recommend this to anyone ...

I'm planning another flush in about a month and although it makes for

a pretty yucky day I'm sure it's worth it.
