In November 2000 I did the one-day liver flush (or liver cleanse) prescribed in Dr Hulda Clark's book The Cure For All Diseases. I'd read the book and her parasite theory made sense. I was suffering from chronic abdominal pain.This is how I completely eliminated that pain - and eight years later I'm still free of that pain.

First thing I did was get out my Hulda Clark `zapper' - which I'd purchased years previously on the net - and started zapping, Prior to doing a liver cleanse it's necessary to kill the parasites blocking the bile ducts in the liver.

I also had a sore elbow, a martial arts injury received earlier in the year. I found Dr Hulda Clark's The Cure For All Diseases in a bookshop. It almost fell open to a page about curing `tennis elbow'. I wondered if it would help with my injury, so I bought the book and took it home.

Well, after about ten days of zapping later there was noticable improvement in the elbow, so maybe the pain was from parasites - as the book suggested - and the zapping had killed them. Meanwhile I was really impatient to start the liver cleanse. I thought the book's stories of people passing gall stones without surgery probably exaggerated but I just had to try it for myself.

Another coincidence - arriving home with the olive oil and grapefruit (ingredients as outlined in Clark's book) I chatted with a neighbour. He said he was recovering from `keyhole surgery' for gall stone removal and was due for further surgery next month. His wife had had a kidney removed some years ago. I showed him the book The Cure For All Diseases and told him about the liver cleanse but he wasn't interested.

The day before the flush I violated Dr Clark's rules. The book says no fatty breakfast - but we'd had McDonald's. Also I'had five beers the night before. But, I didn't want to put it off any longer and so I began the program.

The Epsom Salts tasted absolutely vile. The olive oil was revolting but tasted good in comparison. Contrary to Dr Clark's promise I did feel hungry but stuck to the program anyway.

The next morning I rushed to the toilet upon awakening. The diaorrhea was not much fun. Afterwards, before flushing the toilet, I noticed small green thingies floating on top. Suddenly I got excited! I had a (disposable) plastic fork and jar on standby and did some careful fishing.

Each stone dropped with a clunk into the jar. Rinsing my collection of stones in the laundry I couldn't wait to show my partner when she woke. This was exactly the result claimed in the book.

Further loo visits during the day furnished more stones each time. This was amazing! The biggest measured half an inch. I stopped collecting after counting thirty but took digital photos. We celebrated that night with more beers.

Next morning there were even more stones, including a light brown stone twice as big as the largest green one from the previous day! There'd also been bits of plastic and other unidentifiable substances. I'd always assumed such things passed straight through the body undigested. How long had this stuff been there in my liver???

Hard to believe what was now in the jar! Obviously I was reclaiming my own liver. It felt like I now had a new liver already. Hulda Clark suggests to do the cleanse fortnightly until all stones are gone. And I had no idea how many more were to come.

Altogether it took five separate flushes on five consecutive weekends to clean out my liver!. When it was done the abdominal pain was gone, I felt "cleansed", renewed, and absolutely fantastic.
