Classic Liver/Gallbladder Flush Protocol
popular in natural health circles for supposedly clearing out stones and sludge.
Items needed:
Raw, unfiltered apple juice (malic acid softens things)
Epsom salts (laxative to relax ducts)
Fresh grapefruit juice (or lemon/orange)
Unrefined olive oil
Plan (Mon-Sat):
Drink as much unfiltered apple juice as possible daily, with meals and between.
Saturday: Normal lunch.
3 hours post-lunch: 2 Tbsp Epsom salts in 1 oz hot water, chase with grapefruit juice.
Dinner: Half grapefruit only.
Bedtime: 1 cup olive oil via straw, chase with grapefruit juice. Lie immediately on right side, knee to chest 30 min, then sleep.
Morning: If nauseous, rest. 1 hour pre-breakfast: Another 2 Tbsp Epsom salts in hot water + grapefruit.
Expect loose stools with green “stones”—darker older, lighter newer.
Many stones? Repeat in 2 weeks. Moderate? In 60 days.
I’ve seen patients feel lighter and digest better after, but heads up:
“Science” says those “stones” are often just saponified oil blobs, not real gallstones.
