interesting take on things. i agree that the "stones" or whatever you want to call them are not clumps of cholesterol and from the thousands and thousands people produce time and time again, there is NO possibly way they could be stored inside your liver...it simply is NOT big enough to hold all of that. and from the texture and smell of the stones, they have to be comprised of the oil itself. but i wonder how it cures so many of their ailments? i must say i definitely have had a decrease in food sensitivities post flushing. but for now i am going to let the Iodine do it's magic and hope that i never have to endure one of those disgusting protocols again. or maybe it is the Iodine all along reducing sensitivities :)
