Re: Really Skeptical...
I'm fairly sure it would be difficult to 'dye' a fat product, including olive oil. Are there any readily available fat soluable food dyes on the market?
I mean, products that would truly dye the oil, rather than just distribute their pigments into the water soluable part of the mixture/ (ie. the lemon/grapefruit juice)?
Not that I'm an expert on food dyeing, but I'm pretty sure most dyes are water soluable?
That you can't do the flush with coconut oil only makes me even more suspicious of the protocol. All oils are apparently metabolised and 'flushed through' the liver: why would coconut oil be any different? Why would it 'not work'?
To qualify, I do think that this flush does something. By stimulating the liver to metabolise a large amount of healthy fat, and aiding it to excrete this via a mineral based laxative is a useful protocol.
I just don't believe that these are latent stones, I think they're formed in the intestine.
By the by, none of the suggestions of adding beet juice/berry powders etc... to the mixture are useful at all, because all of these pigments are WATER SOLUABLE and wouldn't actually dye the fat component of the mixture. Even if you shook your jar really hard for a long time, you'd just end up with an emulsion rather than a truly 'dyed' oil.
