Re: Almond oil instead of olive oil
Like you, Hemsy, I could not stomach olive oil any more after my 4th flush, the mere smell of it made me gag. I then experimented with several oils: walnut oil, sunflower oil, almond oil. I liked almond oil the best, have done at least 15 flushes with it, very satisfied. I have found it made no difference in the amount of stones being expelled, except that over time there were naturally fewer, something I hoped for.
However, I have read on-line that since last year almonds are being irradiated in California (and this does not have to be mentioned on the packaging!), and 90 % of our almonds come from California. I have found about about this because I used to soak raw almonds routinely in water, to start the sprouting process. Nowadays they remain shrivelled up, don't get plump any more.....
No one has been able to answer my question if almond oil is made from irradiated or non irradiated almonds.
