I don't know whether I got lucky or what. I used the Clarke protocol, but I didn't take the morning dose or Epsom Salts because the two evening doses really dehydrated me. I tried using a parasite cleanse from Nature's Answer a week or two beforehand, but I don't know if it did anything. The week prior to the flush I drank about 20 ozs. of organic apple juice a day; I think I might have added apple cider vinegar, but don't remember. The day or two prior to the flush I tried to eat healthy, most fruits, oatmeal, bean salad and yogurt. The day of the flush I didn't eat anything but organic apple sauce and organic apple juice as I wanted to make sure that I was "empty" so that I didn't mistake any undigested food for stones; combined with the epsoms salts, I was absolutely hollow.

I got the OO/grapefruit juice down real easy - I thought it was pretty tasty. BUT...I got a horrible wave of nausea around 1:00AM; I ended up laying on the cold bathroom floor until it passed, which took about 20 minutes or so. When I woke in the morning, I was definitely tired and worn and still a little nauseous, sort of like you feel after having a stomach virus. Between about 7:00AM and 1:00PM, I ended up passing about 200 stones, maybe more. Some of the more interesting ones included a big dark green chunk the size of a hard candy, and a cigar shaped stone about 1.25-1.5 inches long which looked real old and sickly. I'm pretty much convinced that the cigar shaped stone was a major hepatic blockage, both for its shape and coloration. I also passed several translucent red stones along with some "worms"; I'm not sure if they were actually parasites or a weird tissue growth - it was tough to tell without a microscope!

The surprises were that I lost about 5 pounds right of the bat from emptying my system and the dehydration. Also, I didn't anticipate the shrinkage my stomach went through; it took me a little while to get back to eating normal meals. Two days after the flush, I felt great and did a lot of heavy yard work. I'll tell you though, my hormones were freaking raging - I haven't felt surges of aggression like that in a long time (if ever). Unfortunately, I didn't eat or drink properly during the day, or have adequate sun protection, and ended up wearing my system down. I ended up getting the worst cold I've had in a while - it took a good two weeks to get rid of, and was followed by about a week of severe congestion in my left ear.

About a month after the flush, I added a 1200mg lecithin supplement to my diet, along with 1 milk thistle capsule daily. I tried to keep up with the 20 ounces of apple juice with ACV. I think the apple juice/ACV/lecithin helped to keep my blood fats solvent, while the milk thistle kicked some energy back into my liver, making fat elimination easier, but that's just speculation. I think I'm probably gonna have to do another flush soon to clear out any residual fats in my liver which were stripped out of my blood stream. We'll see...

My husband followed Dr. Clark's Liver Flush recipie to the letter and he said he was flushing out stones all day. Two weeks later, he did another one and didn't get any stones at all.

Does this mean he is free of stones?

He has hep C and I was hoping these flushed would be beneficial to his liver. Should he keep doing the flushes every two weeks?

Thanks for any info.

I have a triple whammy - Genetics - cousins with MI as young as 19, several w/ bypass in early 30's: Diabetes - which contributes it's own lipid metabolism problems; and Glomerular Nephritis, which is stable but I had considerable kidney damage from, which lets out the small proteins (enzymes) in the urine which also contributes to poor lipid metabolism. My doctor is very good but is quite frustrated. With all the meds and dietary restrictions and exercise, I have only managed to get my TRIG's down to about 500, and that is very hard to sustain. I have stopped using Sugar or white flour, or corn, use flax seed and flax seed meal. I make my own whole grain bread as well. I'm pretty much a vegetarian, use mostly the meat analogs i.e. "vegemeats", and don't drink or smoke. I am already using some herbal supplements that have worked as well as the prescription meds.
So desperate measures for desperate circumstances. I am an RN and I do scour the literature for help. Conventional medicine has done what it can but is limited. I have a cardiac background and work in one of the best hospitals in the country. They're stumped. I do fly anything I do past my internist first.
Thanks so much for your help!
