One of the most common procedures I saw a lot of in ten years of medical transcribing times was a cholecystectomy. It's the surgical removal of the gallbladder. Two types of this procedure are open cholecystectomy and the laparoscopic endoscope. It is performed to treat gallstones from solid components of bile. The presence of stones produce right upper abdominal pain. The gallbladder itself may become inflamed causing upper right abdominal pain and nausea and vomiting. It's called cholecystitis (inflamed gallbladder) and cholelithiasis (gallstones) and removal of the gallbladder can alleviate the symptoms.

But there is a much easier way that naturopathy teaches with regular gallbladder and liver flushes. A gallbladder / liver flush is done with the drinking one cup of olive oil and the juice of one or more lemons or grapefruit juice upon retiring to bed after a complete flushing of your colon that will painlessly remove those stones.

On Youtube, I found many people were using Epsom salts to flush their colons out. But I did one without Epsom Salts that I believe was a lot more painless than with using Epsom salts. I read on the Epsom Salts warnings not to use if you have kidney disease. So that tells me right there it's probably hard on the kidneys.

I went by the instructions of the Detox Miracle Sourcebook for gallbladder / liver cleanse written by Dr. Robert Morse. I ate nothing but fruit for three days and as much as I wanted. I've been a chronic headache sufferer most of my adult life and just eating fruit for three days gave me a low grade headache and I was hungry for solid food. But when you're getting ready to drink a cup of olive oil and you eat solid food, you can become violently ill.

In short, I juiced greens, apples and lemon morning and night those three days at a cup each time along with eating as much fruit as I wanted. I ate fruits like pineapple, apples, grapes, oranges, watermelon, dates.

The morning of my third day eating all fruit I did a colonic that I knew would completely empty me out before I drank the olive oil and lemon/grapefruit solution before going to bed.

I got my colema board from Dr. Jensen's website. Here is a site with the best price I've seen :

The video below talks about experiencing the release mucoid plaque that builds up in the colon from many years of eating meat and dairy. My body released a lot of mucoid plaque on it's own seventeen months into a 100% raw food diet.

Other benefits of a colema board is it relieves fever and pain without having to take any drugs like aspirin if you get real sick and your body has mustered up some heat to get those toxins out.

Back to my gallbladder / liver cleanse, I put my cup of olive oil and juice of two lemons in the Vitamix to make it a bit frothy in hopes it would go down easier. After eating nothing but fruit for three days, it went down very well because I was so hungry anyway.

I immediately went to bed, laying on my right side. I slept very well and much to my surprise passed about 70 to 100 green bile stones the next morning that were softened from all the apple juice and fruit I ate. My headache went away and I did not want anything but fruit for the next two days after drinking a cup of olive oil. It was quite an experience that left me feeling like a burden had been lifted.

It's been about six months since my gallbladder / liver flush and my chronic headache habit has just disappeared. Though I must say I have given myself one horrible migraine afterwards for being in the very hot sun working in the yard and garden about eight hours too long or indulging in too much fat from avocado, coconut, nuts, seeds . . . I've also found that drinking at least 4 to 8 cups of water a day keep heartburn, headaches and muscle cramps away. I never ever take any drugs, especially not aspirin.

If I can put this in the proper set of words, my emotional experience factor with the gallbladder / liver cleanse seemed to also alleviate a lot of fear/anxiety components I had experienced within. I'm sure the flush had something to do with it as it is the liver that takes the brunt of those kinds of emotions as I've read in many a naturopathic book. Not only that, but never before have I ever dreamed of places I've never been before in my dreams either. I've always know in my gut that God never intended for people to be living in the haze they are that surrounds our health and dis-ease.

I can't tell you how I wish, after seeing so many suffer in the traditional hospital setting, that people knew the power they had within them to get well much less traumatically.

I, myself, put off colon cleanses for years because I just didn't want to do it. When I discovered how the colema board can effortlessly take fever and pain away, I was sold. Now, going into my sixth year of eating an all raw diet, I rarely need a colema board to rescue me from getting sick because I got tired of eating the cooked foods that were making me sick. The raw foods keep me well all the time. Not enough fruits and too many nuts and seeds can put me on the acid side of the fence, but all I have to do is alkalize back with the fruits.

I hope this article helps you, when you get sick, so that you will have a much less traumatic experience of it or any other illnesses that, in you, may wreak havoc.

And by all means, if you're supplementing with a supplement like calcium carbonate, it is limestone, clam shells and marble like the scale in your plumbing. This form of calcium is taken in the bad form like calcium carbonate, the body tends to put it anywhere it wants to and you can stone yourself up like a rock (why it is so common among us). Also, if bad calcium builds up in the arteries, it can restrict blood flow to the heart and brain which may cause major health issues.

Calcium bicarbonate is water soluble and found in fruits and vegetables that builds strong bones when properly bound to enzymes and converted in the body. Take a moment and see further information on fruits and vegetables from the support community of the National Osteoporosis Foundation: http://www.inspire.com/groups/national-osteoporosis-foundation/discussion/fruits-and-vegetables/

Here's something that speaks to the glands that utilize calcium and phosphorus that I have taken, relieving me of my bone pain (that is with the help of detox with lots of fruits and vegetables, fasts, and herbal whatnots specifically recommended from a naturopathic that knows how they guide you from your perfect flow's obstructive knots:
