Hi everyone, I have a few questions I’d love to ask the more experienced flushers out there. There is so much information on here, but it’s hard to figure out what is the most effective for the most people. I wish we had a way to poll our results, or do an online survey for each flush. Wouldn’t that be great? My question is this: Experienced flushers, what has been the key to your succesful flushes? Do you have some key things that you have discovered work best? Do you use Epsom salts, magnesium citrate, or something else? Do you drink the epsom salts with gfj or water? What’s yo ...

Hi there, I’m small too - 5’1/2” and 105 lbs. - and the epsom salt dosages have been fine for me. I don’t tend to get to the last one and that’s worked out fine so far. I just did a flush last night, actually, and I got out my largest green blobs yet! I don’t tend to get out a large number - maybe around 30 per flush - but I have been feeling much more energized and clear-headed lately. I’ve done about five flushes and I do have questions about whether the Hulda Clark procedure is the most effective one for me. I think I’ll switch it up next time. I guess I won’t know until I try ano ...

Hi there, I hope you get this response after all these months. I have a question, and I’ve been searching all over the Internet to find the answer without actually having to buy Dr. Frahn’s book (I’m pretty broke), but I can’t seem to find it. The question: do you have to eat the non-fat diet all day before you do your liver flush? The other liver flushes seem to require this. I never know what to eat that still has some protein in it so I can function at work. Do you alter your diet at all? I mean, assuming you’re already eating healthy and nourishing foods? Thanks so much for ...

I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrom at age 16. My case was as bad as it gets: I wasn’t able to menstruate at all... ever. I am now ovulating and menstruating every month. My cycle ranges from 23 to 40 days. My body hasn’t yet begun running like ”clockwork”, but my cycle is always short enough that I know both ovaries are functioning beautifully. I have no doubt that regularity will happen soon; I just want very much to post now to help anyone who might be out there searching desperately for an answer... as I was. My period slowed, then stopped at age 15. At 16, my MD put ...

Hi everybody! About twelve years ago, at age 22, I got a bout or two or perioral dermatitis. It’s a rashy-pimply concoction that develops on a person’s (usually a woman, and often women who, like me, had few pimples as a teen) chin and mouth area. The medical community has one answer for perioral dermatitis: antibiotics. Everything I’ve read on the Internet says it won’t go away without them. My own experience at 22 was the same. I had it for several months and with tetrocyclene it went away in a week. I really don’t know why I suddenly got this bout of it after twelve years of h ...

Hi Tazman, Someone pointed me to tapeworms in regards to the seseme things and unfortunately I think they’re right. I did a search for seseme seeds and on veterinary sites it mentions checking your dog and cat’s feces for seseme seeds because these are indicative of the presence of a tapeworm. (and I do have a cat.) :) I finished my parasite cleanse and there were still some present at the end - although fewer - so I’m quite sure if I have a tape-guy in there he’s probably still there. I keep hearing on here how difficult they are to kill. I didn’t have any luck finding out what ...

Hi! I, too, am hypoglycemic.I eat constantly and I cannot fathom the thought of missing a meal(so much so that when my doctor asked me what happens when I miss a meal I almost bit her head off. MISS A MEAL! There can be no missing meals! :) ) I’ve done the master cleanse for the full 10 days and I never once felt hungry. That’s what’s so cool about the MC... that’s why so many people do it. I felt perky and comfortable throughout. I felt deprived and envious of people I saw eating, but never hungry. Try it. Just never, ever, leave a room without your lemonade in hand. Pretend yo ...

Hi Krissy, I did Shelley’s procedure, which is 1/2 cup olive oil and 3/4 cup grapefruit juice, followed 15-30 minutes later with a second drink of the same amounts. I did eat only simple foods through the day, too, and I took Gold Coin Grass all week (stone-disolving herbs).   [End]

Hi, All! Happy Mothers Day! My first liver cleanse was easy: the grapefruit juice/oo drinks tasted fine and I had no nausea. I also had no results. Not one stone! I know this can be common on the first cleanse, so I just made plans for my second cleanse two weeks later. I did my second cleanse last night, and the second juice/oo drink was a little trickier to get down. I slept, but dreamed of how nauseous I felt. I woke up at 7am and vomited. I’ve read of others vomiting during the night after a liver cleanse, but I haven’t heard of anyone vomiting 8 hours after drinking the concocti ...

In addition to what Shelley has said, I just though I’d add that I, too, have teeth impressions on the sides of my tongue, and when I saw Julia Chang she said they are a sign of a weak spleen. (Shelley and Julia might be saying the same thing here. What do I know?) Julia Chang said the spleen would strenthen and cleanse itself once you take care of the liver.   [End]

Happy Saturday night, Shelley! I read your post below advising against using distilled water in an enema, and I thought I’d better make sure: Do you advise against drinking it too? I have two choices at the store close enough to lug water home from: distilled or Spring. I’ve always chosen distilled because goodness’ knows whats in the Spring. We all know bottled water is unregulated and it’s hard to say if any given bottle of Spring water is any cleaner than tap water. Most of it doesn’t come from a spring, and even if it did, what’s so great about spring water? There was a big s ...

Aw, sweetie, I’m so sorry this has been happening to you. You are very brave to seek out answers rather than separating yourself from the world. There has to be an answer. Bodies were made to work. Some of ours get mucked up, but I believe in the Eastern medicine philosophy: strengthen and cleanse the body and it will heal itself. I strongly suggest you take your problem to the Ask Shelley forum. She is a warm, caring, knowledgeable lady who takes the time to answer all questions. She’ll want you to catch up on her key points to start to start, so I’ll send you the link to ”The ...

Yes - exactly. The ideal diet for hypoglycemics is the same as for diabetics: eating vegies, proteins, and non-refined grains. That means porridge, not boxed breakfast cereals. It means throwing the sugar and white flour out of your kitchen and replacing it with real food that comes from the earth. It requires cooking! :) I had horrible hypoglycemia for years, and even though it improved when I began to eat lower glycemic foods, it didn’t go away until my hormones found a better balance. (artificially - I switched to the Diane pill). I’m just mentioning that in case it’s relevant in yo ...

Hi Doreen, I just thought I’d mention that rectal itching at night is a oft-mentioned symptom of parasites (pinworms). You might want to check out the parasite info page and forum on this site! Apparently they’re quite common.   [End]

Ah - hair loss. Me too. That, along with sweaty armpits and dryness down below were what told me (not my M.D. - she was clueless) that there was something up with my hormone levels. In my case, though, after I switched to a better BC pill for me, the hairloss didn’t stop. After years of seeing endocrinologists - and having them treat me with complete disdain for seeing them about this ”cosmetic” problem - I finally went to a hair transplant surgeon who did a blood test that said I was low in iron. Frustration - why did no one think to check my iron? Confusion - how could I be low i ...

I can really relate to your post. I’ve had a history of dramatic hypoglycemic reactions that became worse and worse over a period of five years or so, and then eased off in the last six months. My body, too, would go into an absolute panic when I became too hungry. I was eating super heavy food - meat and cheese!! - 5 or 6 times a day and I couldn’t stay full! It was craziness. I just wanted to add that Julia Chang associates hypoglycemia with a weak spleen. (And the spleen, she said, will pretty much take care of itself once you cleanse the liver and gallbladder.)Also, I don’t know if ...

Hi Shelley! My parents and I are on the Chinese Bitters, and will soon be beginning the GCG and then our first cleanses! I’m asking about the malic acid (or apple juice) fast not only for myself but for my parents, because although they’re ”going along with me” on this stuff, I’m not sure if I’m going to convice them to fast! It looks like on Julia’s site that if you do the cleanse with just oo/gj/es you are only doing a gallbladder cleanse, and if you add the malic acid, you are also doing a liver cleanse. Am I reading that correctly? Also, is the fasting while taking the malic a ...

Hi there, You can take a look at the Ultimate Fast site http://www.prostate90.com/program/c5ultimate_fast.html Dr. Clapp combines the lemonade fast (called the Master Cleanse) with the B&P shakes you may have heard about on this site (bentonite and psyllium husk concoctions). Shelleycat, a naturpath with her own forum here on curezone, recommends we don’t consume more than one lemon per day, which is of course far more than the 6-8 lemons you might consume in a day on the Master Cleanse. You might like to ask her more about that, but if you do choose to do the Master Cleans ...

Thank you so much! Can you tell me where you found your information? I’d really like to know. I’ve been looking all over the Net, and I’m finding most of the photos very unhelpful because they’re blown up so many times they don’t look anything like the real thing. I did find a photo on this site of the ”garlic pieces”, but it had no label! Can you believe it? Argh! Thanks again for responding. The best of luck with your son.   [End]

I am on week 7 of taking ”Clear”, one of the parasite cleanses recommended on the Ultimate Fast site. I haven’t seen any big ”adults” on the cleanse so far, but I have had hundreds of ”garlic pieces”, ”mini poppy seeds”, and ”mini sesame seeds” exit me. In the long run, it doesn’t matter what these things are, because the main thing is I’m getting rid of them, but it would be really nice to know what they are so I can read up on them. Spirit, I saw your posting from Forum #3 on the ”grains of rice” and what exactly they are. (I wish postings like that were carried forward into every fo ...

Hi Shelley, So good to read your wisdom again! Have you ever heard of a stomach filling up with air when a person gets hungry? Mine bloats right up until it is crampy with gas. It happens quickly - in the space of a half-hour - and I realize I’ve come to associate this with ”hunger”. It is my key indicator it is time to eat... just to feed the ouchy balloon! Dumb! It deflates again when I eat, but is terribly uncomfortable untiil it moves out. :) (It’s the centre area right under my ribs... up high. Stomach?) Thank you!   [End]

I apparently am iron-deficient. It’s ridiculous, as I am a very healthy woman who works out 4x/week and eats a nutrient-rich diet... but that’s what the blood tests say. I have been trying for four years to find a reason for unexplained and horribly visable hair loss, and that seems to be the only reason anyone has come up with. I hate to take even a day off from the iron pills, because they do slow down the hair loss... and ditto with birth control pills. Does anyone have any advice for me? My plan is to do the master cleanse + parasite cleanse, followed by several liver cleanses. ( ...

Hi DavidN, Funny, I’ve been asking the same question on the liver cleanse forum, and no one has answered me either! I plan to begin the master cleanse in the next few days, as well as a parasite program, and I had planned on doing the liver cleanse immediately after. Like you, I’m just not sure if it’s too harsh to go right into. Also, is it going to be tough to poo out stones if we have no poo left?? :)   [End]

Hi everyone, Thank you so much for all your advice on here. I’ve read most of it, and caught Shelleycat’s wonderful summary on page 39. Thank you! I am still not clear on two things: Are we removing toxins and poisons from the liver by flushing it, or just stones? I’ve been on birth control pills for years because of ovary issues, and I’ve always known they were horrible for the liver, but I had no choice in the matter, as no natural method would work to get my ovaries to function on their own. I very much want to cleanse poisons from my liver. Is this the best way to do that do y ...

Thanks for your messages, everyone. This is my first posting. I have a few questions, and I would be so grateful for someone to point me in the right direction. I am about to begin a Master Cleanse combined with a parasite cleanse tomorrow, and plan to stay on it for 8 days, and then do a liver cleanse. (Is there any reason not to do a liver cleanse directly after the bowel cleanse?) This will be my second bowel cleanse and first liver cleanse. My first Master Cleanse was rather unremarkable. I had only one headache (although it was like nothing I’ve ever experienced before - my fir ...

Hi Anxious, Aw... you poor thing. Look, there is a Master Cleanse ”+” program out there! It is called the Ultimate Fast. It uses the master cleanse as a base, but ads in additional ”get the bowels movin’” kind of stuff. Here’s the website. Read it. http://www.prostate90.com/program/c5ultimate_fast.html You will see instructions on adding in psyllium and bentonite to your lemonade. You can get the psyllium in a big bulk bag (looks like bran) from your health food store for $8 or less, and the Bentonite in a bottle from your health food store for $10 or less. Add them to your lemo ...

Aww.. I’m so sorry, Courtney. You’ve been so disciplined, and it feels like it hasn’t paid off. I have a couple of suggestions. First, go take a peek at this site. http://www.prostate90.com/program/c5ultimate_fast.html The ”Ultimate Fast” uses the Master Cleanse as a base, but adds in a few more things to move the bowels. It doesn’t sound like the laxative tea has been enough in your case. Can you extend your fast a day or two? I bet using the psyllium husks will make it worth your while, if you have a little will power left. This is basically what I have in mind for you to read o ...
