I would recommend doing a parasite cleanse before your next Liver-Flush and, yes, keep with the liver flushes. The first several may be a little rough, depending on how congested your liver is. My first flush made me deathly sick! And so I avoided doing LFs for several years. But my liver was still congested once I went back to the flushes. The first several were a little rough and then they got better and I actually felt good afterwards. Once I took them up again, it was the third one where I got emerald green 1/2 inch stones out. After that they were all pretty easy.

Do a parasite cleanse, and then allow sufficient recovery time to be built in to your schedule when you do the flushes, and just hang in there. You will eventually be glad that you did, and your overall health will improve. At least my did.

Yes, keep going.

It is so difficult for some of us to continue doing LFs when we feel so ill when we do them. I have read that it is the toxins which come out in the bile which are readsorbed into the body that makes us feel so bad. Clark recommends doing parasite cleanses first and then doing different parasite herbs and supplements - I started with Clarks herbs then did Rascal, Quassia and other herbs and stay on the maintenance program. After the Quassia I passed a tangle of tapeworms, other worms and flukes on a LF. Clark's kidney cleanse dissolves hard calcium stones and prepares the kidneys to be more efficient in excreting toxins. (Some people use apples/malic acid, gold coin grass and other supplements to soften hard stones). I use Clark's Liver Support Tea to help clear toxins out of the liver. She recommends niacinamide to help with toxin release after LFs.

Although Clark's Liver-Flush is considered the 'best' Liver-Flush many people have described their experiences using other LFs in older messages. There is an avacado/egg Liver-Flush which is gentler.

Hi Faster84:

Don't give up on the Liver-Flush yet. I'm by no means experienced. I've only just done my 3rd. It took me years to get up the nerve to do them. I was expecting the worst. But the first one wasn't the ordeal that I had imagined. I had already done the other cleanses and been doing other things to support my body, so that probably helped. I had already detoxed quite a bit over the last year so I'm sure that helped as well. I was a pretty toxic laden puppy. Still am but not near as bad as I was. The advice of the others to do the other cleanses first is very wise. I had already done those.

I know how discouraging it is to feel so toxic. It's pretty miserable. But if you can keep going, that will lessen. On my first flush, I didn't get any stones either. My understanding is that's pretty normal. I also didn't clean out the night before from the Epsom Salts either. So I think that made me feel worse the next day. Plus I couldn't see my results very well (which is always a plus in my opinion!!) :) Mendomaid suggested that I was magnesium deficient which makes sense. Because after that first flush I began to take Natural Calm every night for other reasons and on the next flush I did clean out from ES the night of the flush. It's also important to be hydrated. Some of the symptoms you mention after the flush could be dehydration.

You mention bowel problems too. It's important the day after the flush that you keep moving things out. I try to do the psyllium/bentonite shakes mentioned on the Bowel Cleanse Forum before and after the flush, especially after. A Bowel Cleanse might be a good idea too.

And just because you didn't see stones, doesn't mean it wasn't a successful flush. Whatever you got out of there is better out than in.

Hang in there!

Thanks for all your posts guys. I don't know if it's coincidental, or indeed psychological, but I did feel better for about a week after doing the flush. So I'm going to persevere for a few weeks and see what happens.

Good luck to everyone.
