Hi folks,

Thanks for your comments.

I seem to average between 100 - 300 stones out in each flush. NOT 5000! lol.

The stones used to be much larger, and alternated between being predominantly tan-coloured or green-coloured, but now the flushes are producing much smaller stones, mostly green-coloured. I think I am beginning to catch up to my production of stones. But stones will continue to be produced until I find out what other imbalance exists which is causing the stones in the first place. So I think I might have had 2 - 4,000 stones in my liver when I started - from large to miniscule - I think the number is much less now.

How can a liver contain that many stones? Well, my liver used to feel enlarged, hard and damned uncomfortable. In fact, I developed hepatitus Type A several years ago, probably due to some polluted oysters, but the weakened liver condition might have been there already - impaired liver function - which enabled the actual hepatitis virus to me sick. I imagine that if my liver was functioning at full power, I might have been able to fight off the virus before it could get established. About that time, I felt like I had a football tucked in behind my ribs. Since this condition had developed over years - maybe decades - I didn't know how abnormal it was, until the doctor who tested my liver said that it was enlarged, and until I started doing Liver Flushes and noticed an immediate sense of partial deflation and relief. Now, I don't have that pumped-up hard as a rock football feeling behind my ribs. I don't feel pinpoints of irritating pressure, which would come and go every few days, in various part of that area under the ribs (both sides, believe it or not, but 95% of the time on the right side). Also, my back and neck aren't stiff like they used to be, and I seem to be able to breathe more freely.

So, it might sound impossible to have that many stones in there. But it is possible to have an unhealthy assortment of various sizes of them. And, over time, you continue to produce them. I'm sure I didn't have 7,000 stones in my liver 2 years ago. But I definitely had several thousand back then, and have produced and flushed out some since then.

I think the stones are being constantly produced and eliminated naturally in our bms every day. I remember seeing them in my stool when I was a teenager, and wondering what they were - undigested peas? That was before gall bladder surgery.

As for Moritz - I gave both my copies of the Amazing Liver Flush away to interested friends, but he did say that in the first part of the book - symptoms like allergies, arthritis, asthma, and other auto-immune problems, often appear 3 years after surgery. It was a point I returned to reread many times, because I was so amazed at the - er - coincidence!

He also related removal of the gallbladder to an increased risk of diabetes. That's a point I went into some detail about in a long posting previously - I'll try to find the link. Since I'm already at high risk for diabetes (both my mother and father have it), you can bet I've been working hard to support the liver, pancreas, and digestive system.

Out of curiosity, I've checked out his "Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation" about allergies, and here are some points:

p. 81 - 82 it is related to a toxin-laden and blocked up lymph system, especially with insufficient hydration. He says asthmatics should drink 3-4 glasses of water to stave off an attack, and that sufficient hydration will aid the lymph system in clearing toxins and prevent allergies and asthma.

pp. 185 - 186 allergies may have their root cause in a congested liver and impaired digestive system, and the allergies may in turn lead to even more congestion and impairment (I see this as a circular system of degeneration, a cycle which Liver Flushing can interrupt.) People with long-term health ailments always have one or several allergies. The main families of allergies are duck feathers, milk, wheat, and mint, and each family contains many other allergies, such as certain vegetables, fruits, pollen, metals, pollutants, etc.

p. 234 burning beeswax candles continuously for several days or weeks can relieve allergies, while all other candle types (tallow and paraffin) will aggravate them.

p. 278 taking statins to reduce cholesterol can lead to allergies and other problems.

Unfortunately, he didn't discuss gall bladder removal and it's effect on the body. However, if I recall, he talks about that in the first portion of "The Amazing Liver Flush," the part before he describes the recipe and method of liver flushing.

I am much healthier than when I started.

Thanks to all the folks on CZ who share!
