Re: [gallstones] Re: the ”stones” debate revisited

CHRISTA,

I think that you sucess is just great. If you read barry's post and other posts you will see that the cyctic duct is not very big. Barry mentions 2mm, but the average is a bit bigger than that. To pass an inch or larger stone no matter how hard or soft, would land you in the hospital in my oppinion.

You mention feeling the stones passing along. Butit is impossible to know for sure what you are feeling. When I did a mini flush and layed on my right side, I felt some very strange things. I believe these to be the gall and ducts having spasms. I could liken it to the feeling of me passing stones, but I just don't know that it was not just my gall contracting (much harder than normal).

Many doctors are presented with very large stones that have supossedly have been passed by the flush are sceptical for a reason. If they have extracted hundredes of galls, they know how strechable and how large the ducts are and know its very unlikely to pass such a large stone.

I in no way support convention doctors and having your gall removed, but the physical charatistics of the ducts will just not allow the passage of such large stones. This only leads me and many of these doctors to conclude that they are formed elsewhere.

I'll note that your weight loss is a great thing and that the flush may have helped. However, please be aware that the changes you made in your diet are significant in weight loss. Many people take calorad to loose weight. They claim it works wonders and it may. However, one of the directions is to not eat anything within so many hours of sleeping. This in itself has been proven to help people loose weight.

You also mention grazing. This is also a very powerful way to loose weight because it naturally increases the metabolism by eliminating the STARVATION mecanism inthe body which slows the metabolism if you eat infrequently.

I'm happy that youhave had such sucess, and I'm sure the flush has helped but I believe that the other changes you have made have a big impact on your health and weight loss.

I am putting together a detailed, referenced document with allthe references and information that Ihave collected from universities and other sources that I will post to help explain in more detail my theory on flush stone formation.

I'm glad your making progress and getting healthy!

Take care,
