That's what I first did back when curing candida, just melted and didn't flush. But then I was fascinated by the idea of flushing and tried it, got some stones and gunk out, thought, better out than in. Then with this last series of flushes, it was mostly to make sure to get rid of Acne FAST, which it did, with the added side-effect of making me to lose 6 pounds. So it was really nice to see such major benefits right away. I don't think I would have realized the benefits so fast without flushing. But it's nice to know that the people who aren't ready or otherwise unwilling to flush can do a lot of good regardless.
