Re: Dislodging gallstones with liver flushes.

 "They need to know that there is a very real danger of lodging a real gallstone, in the bile duct, by causing the gallbladder to contract continually, during this protocol.

Yes, you are totally correct Spud. The strong contractions of the gallbladder by the oil could lodge a real stone, if present, in the bile ducts. This can lead to pancreatitis, so a lodged stone needs to be removed surgically immediately."

If what you two say is true then it could also be possible to dislodge a gallstone, which could in fact mean that one may not have to have their gall bladder removed. All of this is covered in the liver flush protocols, which is why Epsom Salts and extra oil should always be on hand.

What we have pointed out is well known and true.  But your response is misleading.  First of all there are generally more than one gallstone present if present at all.  And these would vary in size.  So yes, very small gallstones can pass when we consume large amounts of oil.  But larger gallstones cannot pass through the bile ducts no matter how much magnesium you take. Therefore expelling sludge or small stones does not guarantee a person will be able to avoid surgery, and again surgery can still be needed if a larger stone gets lodged in the bile ducts.  People would be better off dissolving real stones with bitters to stimulate bile release and help with hormone balance and lecithin and fibers to increase bile production.

At the same time people should always be aware that a stone can lodge at any time when the gall bladder contracts, especially during any meal that has large amounts of fat.

If the person consumed a large enough amount of fat in a meal the risk is increased.  But meals rarely contain the amount of fat consumed with these so-called "flushes" and the meal will slow release of those fats in to the intestines unlike the "flushes" which create a sudden surge of oil in the intestines.
