WEll seems it is worth a try 20569. But that is alot of D--- supplements. You take ALL of them? Maybe I should just try the Taurine.

If I can use this to stabilize my issues. -- And alkalize like Moreless Forum says maybe it will all even out. Seems he feels one does not need to cleanse if you alkalize. Alot of people on this liver cleanse site cleanse on and on. Thus they continue to form stones. So maybe alkalizing would solve that.

I however have never gotten a cleanse done. Does not work.

I found an herb supplement by New Roots that contains pretty much what you took, I wonder if you or someone else is familiar with it. It is called Liver and contains the following:

Each vegetable capsule contains :
Silybum marianum (Milk thistle) (seeds) (80% silymarin)
250 mg
Raphanus sativus var. niger (Oriental radish) (roots)
140 mg
Beta vulgaris (Beet) (root)
150 mg
Taraxacum officinale (Dandelion) (root) (3% flavonoids)
50 mg
Cynara scolymus (Artichoke) (leaf) (5% cynarin)
35 mg
Curcumin (95% curcuminoids) 50 mg
DL-alpha-lipoic acid 50 mg

I have small stones and sludge and am worried that if I take something to increase bile they may get stuck - but I really want my gallbladder clean - I am currently symptom free

Hello. I just wanted you to know that this post helped me. I tried many of things you suggested, along with some other things too. I had one ultrasound that showed sludge. A later scan showed nothing. So I would consider that objective proof that I cleared the sludge. It was a long road (two years) with plenty of pain, but I am fine now. So thanks for posting these suggestions. Gigi

I was thinking of trying the castor oil packs for gallbladder stones. I did the flush about 5 years ago and nearly lost my cookies. It was pretty tough doing the flush. I felt it was kinda traumatic. I have been doing apples and apple juice and today my pressure and burping subsided a lot. Thanks for the information I was also try some Taurine.

Great, huh!

It's been 11 years since you posted your gallstone routine of supplements & I'm new here, having endured an acute cholesystitis attack & overnite hospitalization 6 weeks ago. I've felt fine since the day I was discharged but was to to eat NO FATS OR OILS which I learned is not the correct. Thankfully, the surgeon is booked until the end of Feb 2017 so I had the luxury of learning a lot & will avoid surgery if I can figure out the best alternative treatment program. I will not do a flush as some of my stones are calcified and others are too big and might block the common duct. By following surgeon's edict, I've lost weight which is great, but I wasn't eating any fat at all for a month until I saw an ND who suggested I begin eating avocado daily. I've been doing that but know I need to do more. She suggested a couple of supplements but both say "do not take if you have kidney or gallbladder disease" so I haven't taken them. There seem to be many "combo" gallbladder supplements yet you list separate ones so I'm trying to figure out what to take. I have not read yet of taurine but find that interesting. They also saw kidney stones on the imagining which was no surprise as I had kidney stone (open) surgery 40 years ago at the age of 22 so my system was screwed up long ago, but no kidney stones since except for passing 27 tiny stones a year before my recent gallbladder attack. Thankfully, I saved them so just had then analyzed & was shocked to learn they are 80% uric acid & 20% calcium oxalate - the stone removed via surgery 40 yrs ago was calcium oxalate. When I passed those 27 stones a year ago, I began drinking loads of water with fresh lemon juice daily. My blood tests last month when in hospital showed perfect uric acid levels so I can't assume anything at this point & because they saw another cluster of small stones in same kidney that had stones 40 years ago, I'm not allowing them to do anything as I assume those too will eventually pass. But because of kidney stones,& the obvious tendency to make them, I need to be careful. For years, I took ascoribic acid to tolerance when well and ill so I know how much good C does but now wonder if taking all that C caused those uric acid stones…I doubt it but I'm so confused now and scared to start taking supplements that may or may not cause me to have another gallbladder attack. My fear is that some or all of the recommended supplements could cause the gallbladder to squeeze so hard that I end up with another attack in in hospital again. The walls of my gallbladder were also thickened by not horribly. "Mobile" sludge was also seen. I am currently drinking 70 oz of water with the juice of 1 lemon daily & have added a bit of avocado a couple times/day. No further attack…yet. I would love to know how you've faired over the past 11 years since posting! Thank you & sorry this is so long!

Hi everyone, I am new here, I am 59 years old and just diagnosed with gallstones. The doctors want to remove my gallbladder, but I don't want to do that since there are many other health problems caused by removing the gallbladder, too many to mention in my first post. I started vomiting in May, and been nauseous ever since....but feeling alot better than I did in May. I need all the help I can get from people like you here on this forum, doctors and the medical community just dismiss alternatives because there is money to be made by removing the gall bladder instead of healing it. I asked why they just don't remove the stones and keep the gall bladder and they said "we don't do that" was all I got for an answer. It seems like bullshit for people who got a certificate hanging on their wall in their office!! So here I am, I trust you people more than doctors and in another post I will tell you why! I have cured some health problems when I insisted on a change in hormones that doctors still scoff at but I am living proof that some people with no certificate hanging on the wall are actually more intelligent that some that have university degrees!!!

Thank you for sharing!
