Re: middle eastern, greeks, meditereaneans prove liver flush
1. I looked at Andreas Moritz ' book
First of all in my opinion Moritz has zero credibility since he apparently does not understand how the body works. Here are some examples of his myths being exposed:

And I am not alone in the belief that Moritz does not know what he is talking about:
http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/2010/02/andreas_moritz_legal_intimidation_i...
about liver flushing where he replies to the claim that these little round balls were formed from the action of the flush ingredients. I thought his arguments were persuasive. One thing that struck me was his statement that after some point the flushes no longer produced any of the little round balls.
I have addressed these points previously in the links above. But in short the answer is that their formation in the intestines is dependent on the ingredients needed to form them. These include sufficient bile and sufficient cholesterol. These can be depleted for a number of reasons including doing frequent "flushes".
Also, I do believe him when he says that his many health challenges ceased after he was free of "stones".
Being free of "stones" produced in the intestines from saponification and binding of cholesterol cleared up his health issues how? I have heard people claim that the "flushes" cleared up their allergies. But since allergies have NOTHING to do with the gallbladder how is this possible? As I have pointed out in the past chemotherapy can make a cancer patient feel better from shrinking a tumor. But this does not mean they are cured, and this does not make the chemotherapy safe or effective. So a claim of being cured is far from proof of being cured especially when gallbladder function has NOTHING to do with virtually all diseases.
2. I would ask you why some people don't discharge anything after a flush whereas some others do? Don't we all have the same body chemistry and body parts? Why will one individual produce round thingies and others not after a flush?
Answered above. It is all dependent on all the materials needed to form the "stones" in the intestines being present.
3. Also, we had an exchange a few weeks ago where you don't explain why the liver flush would cause me to discharge what you have decided are calcium oxalate stones rather than real gallstones. Where are these calcium oxalate stones being formed? I've looked up & down and everywhere I read they say that such stones are formed in the kidney and nowhere else.
You need to learn how to research better:
http://www.advances-in-medicine.com/2008/08/extraintestinal-complications-cro...
"Fat malabsorption also increases the risk of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Normally dietary oxalate binds to calcium within the lumen of the small intestine and is excreted as insoluble calcium oxalate in the feces. With fat malabsorption, calcium binds to long-chain fatty acids rather than oxalate. Free oxalate is then hyperabsorbed from the colon and excreted in the urine (enteric hyperoxaluria). "
If you really think about it calcium oxalate is insoluble. So calcium oxalate formed in the digestive system is not going to absorb unless broken down first in to free oxalate. By the way the breakdown of excess vitamin C in the body also leads to oxalate formation, which can contribute to calcium oxalate kidney stones. So it is not all from dietary absorption of oxalic acid, which is minimal to begin with.
4. There are things called Pseudoliths. Also known as "Fake stones," they are sludge-like gallbladder secretions that act like a stone. (info taken from wikipedia) "Act like a stone" is the important thing. Personally, I don't care that much if what I have discharged is real or pseudo. They just should not be there.
But what people are discharging is coming from the intestines where they formed, not from the gallbladder. This is why these "stones" lack the properties of real gallstones and when analyzed by a lab they are found not to be real gallstones.
4. It's true that sometimes people defend some health procedure tooth and nail when there is no good reason to do so. However, I would say the same thing about established orthodox medical procedures, particularly standard cancer treatments, and not only unproven alternatives.
