Best to either juice your own Fuji apples, eat Fuji apples, and you can drink organic apple juice from the health food store or country store. Frozen concentrate has very little real juice in it.
You can also purchase Malic Acid or liquid Phosfood.
There's no risk. :) The stones will get smaller, softer, and even dissolve into chaffe. What often happens is people will eat a high-fat meal, do some bending and stretching, and end up expelling stones absolutely pain-free! It's way cool. :) I have yet to hear of anyone getting a stone stuck due to pre-treating and shrinking them.
