Spring Cleaning
When I moved to LA last year, I was eating dinner with some friends and the subject of detoxification came up, as it usually does for some reason. Coming from an ‘alternative’ health background (even though I believe ‘alternative’ should be mainstream, again, another conversation) I told my table that I am an advocate of the liver cleanse. Your liver is one of the most important organs in your body (checkout www.druglessdoctor.com for more info on that) and to keep it working at its full potential, it needs a good cleaning every spring and fall. This cleansing process is actually quite simple. As you can see right below:
Drink 1 quart of organic apple juice from the Health Food Store throughout each day for 3 days. Add 90 drops of Phosfood Liquid and 20 drops of Peppermint Leaf to each quart of apple juice. The pectin in the apple juice and the Phosfood Liquid helps to soften and flatten the stones in the gallbladder and liver. The Peppermint Leaf will aid digestion. Eat as normal these 3 days, but for your evening meal on the 3rd day you may want to eat a light dinner, as you will be drinking the olive oil mixture before bed that evening.
If you cannot tolerate that much fruit juice, or are diabetic, use distilled water instead of apple juice. If you use water, you must increase the amount of Phosfood Liquid. Put 135 drops of Phosfood Liquid and 20 drops of Peppermint Leaf in each quart of water and drink 1 quart throughout each day for 3 days.
WARNING: You must follow this step. If you don’t take the Phosfood Liquid drops, don’t go on the program. If the Phosfood Liquid does not soften the stones before they come out, they will remain hard and can tear the ducts on the way out. You don’t want this to happen. It is recommended that you follow the entire program. But always check with you doctor first.
2. On the third day after the last meal (before bed), mix the following foods together: A cup of high quality olive oil, a cup of pineapple juice, grapefruit juice, and/or natural spritzer. Add the juice of one whole lemon (organic is best). Stir this together.
The pineapple juice or spritzer serves the purpose of helping to get down the olive oil. You hardly taste the olive oil. (This program originally included epsom salt. But this was too harsh on most people.)
3. Immediately after you drink the olive oil, go to bed for the night. Put your knees up to your chest. Lie on your right side for half an hour. The oil will go to the gallbladder and liver. These organs will not know what to do with all that oil, so they will over compensate and throw off the stones. It will be best for you to lay on your right side as long as you can while falling asleep.
4. Take herbal laxatives next morning. The next day, take an herbal laxative to flush the stones out of the colon. Organic black coffee also works.
5. Colon Cleanse. We have seen better results when patients have colon irrigation prior to the flush. This clears the pathway for stone elimination. We also encourage, after your flush, to have another colonic.
6. All Females who pass stones and are estrogen dominant (determined by saliva testing) should take A- F BetaFood from Standard Process, three daily, until their estrogen levels become normal.
7. Frequency. If you are really sick (cancer), consider going on this once a month for a few months. Everyone is different. There are no absolute rules. For prevention, go on it at least once a year. Others do it more frequently.
You will notice that the stones often times will be green and float. You could retrieve the stones from the toilet and save them in your freezer. People are always amazed that you passed gallstones naturally.
Special Note: Stones in the gallbladder are the result of eating a high-acid diet. All foods burn to either acid or alkaline ash after digestion. All meat and dairy products, plus nearly all cooked produce burn to acid. The body needs to stay slightly alkaline to remain in good health. It makes acid as a by-product of metabolism, but makes no alkaline. This must come from the diet. If the diet is primarily animal foods and/or cooked produce, the body must rob the bones of calcium (an alkalinizing mineral) to keep the bloodstream from becoming acidic. But before going to the bones, the body raids the gallbladder. From the bile stored there, it removes the organic sodium (another alkalinizing mineral). What is left behind is cholesterol, which hardens into stones. To protect against gallstone formation change your diet. Taken from Dr. Frohm’s “Health Quarters
