Hi Filmdog:

I'm no expert - I've only done 1 flush, but I did it without any "prep" other than trying not to eat fat that day, and I stopped eating after 2:00pm. I didn't even know it was suggested that you take apple juice for 5 days prior. I did get out about 50 pea-sized, green stones, so it was successful. Hope that helps.

Hi,

While I have done successful flushes myself without the prep., I know Andreas says that there is more of a risk of getting a stone stuck without it. When the stones aren't as soft they could get stuck easier.

Take care,

viper

Hi!
I have done three flushes by now without the preperation with apple Juice, just following the recipe of Hulda Clark . Didn't even know, it was recommended. In the last flush (the third) I took the first portion of Epsom Salt with th e juice of two appels, that I juiced myself and lay on my right side instead of the back after OO (Olive-Oil) and Grapefruit-juice, just to try out.
Results:
1st flush: about 200 stones
2nd flush: about 200 stones
3d flush: about 270 stones
The fist flush produced the most big stones (maybe 20, between half and one centimeter (1/6 to 1/3 inch, I think). It ws remarkable. The second flush had fewer big stones
The last flush produced mainly lots of small and very small stones, most about 2 mm, some just 1 mm in diameter (1/20 inch or something like that).
Question to the ones who know.... Producing smaller and smaller stones - does that mean, my liver is nearly clean? Or does that mean, it's the preparation for the "big ones"????

As a result of your advice and info, I bit the bullet and had my first successful flush with no complications...and I wouldn't have had the courage to proceed without your input. Many thanks!
