Hi. I do appreciate somethings I've heard here; things that TOTALLY make me want to NEVER have my gallbladder removed, thanks for that. BUT; all you have to do is a little MORE research beyond this website; and you'll get more info; it becomes (unless you have personally verified the data scientifically) a matter of, who do you believe? If I am able to rid myself of the stones -- all of them -- because extra bile is decreasing their size, and because they're smaller they're also travelling along the ducts, yippee - and this is done with herbs, pain-free; effective and safe, well I just think that others out there should know that this is also an option. Anyone can do the research on the web.
