A lifelong battle of symptoms can occur such as: Hair Loss Leg Cramps Brittle fingernails Adult acne Cracked heels Chronic inflammation Slow wound healing…just to name a few consequences of no gallbladder. Why suffer? Your liver produces bile, which emulsifies fats to digest fats. Half of the bile goes to the small intestine and the other half is stored in the gallbladder until it’s needed. Gallstones form when the bile stays in the gallbladder too long. It collects, forms, and settles into what is known as gallstones. (pictured below)

Are Your Symptoms Real? “I have been on and off the South Beach Diet and in all have lost a little over 40 pounds. I have been working out 4-5 days a week. Within the last week or so I have been feeling mild uncomfortable pains in my lower right side, with no other symptoms. It is very uncomfortable …” “I just wanted to know about a pain in my side. It's been hurting for two days now. It’s right in my pelvic area. Please help!” “HELP! Gallstone Attack! What can I do? I am having gallstone attacks after eating! What can I do to relieve the pain?” While these people experienced symptoms, most people with gallstones have no symptoms at all. One study found that more than 80 percent of patients who were found to have gallstones had no symptoms. Look at the symptoms (below) to see if you are experiencing these, then check with a health professional.

Gallstones form when liquid stored in the gallbladder hardens into pieces of stone-like material. The liquid, called bile, is used to help the body digest fats. Gallstones can be as small as a grain of sand or as large as a golf ball. The gallbladder can develop just one large stone, hundreds of tiny stones, or almost any combination.

1

If a gallstone is obstructing the gall bladder, there will be severe pain in the upper right side of the abdomen . The pain will come and go in waves as strong muscular contractions. Strong muscular contractions occur because the body is trying to get rid of the obstruction. Other symptoms are mild pain under the right ribs. This pain usually occurs after eating fatty foods. It occurs after eating fatty foods because fat in the diet provokes a reflex contraction of the gall bladder. If there is complete obstruction of the gall bladder, infection of the gall bladder occurs. Symptoms of this are: fever and jaundice (yellow skin).

2

Jill’s story… When Jill called me, it wasn’t to invite me to tea. Her father Ed, my patient, was in the hospital with gallbladder pain. The medical doctors wanted to remove the gallbladder, but he wanted to get my opinion first. As a naturopath, I’m not usually welcomed in most hospitals. Seems like they don’t always want to save the patients gallbladder, but rather how much money that can be made from removing it through surgery. I did a brief exam on him. He was already looking jaundiced and running a fever. The pain was coming in waves, enough to topple this big strapping 70 year old guy. I reviewed his symptoms with him and what the medical doctors told him. After the exam, I was sure the stones were not in his gallbladder, but instead had lodged in his bile ducts. I told him to have the doctor do tests to see if they could see the stones in his bile ducts. The next day his doctor ran the tests, and sure enough, that’s where a huge stone was lodged, the common bile duct. The doctor removed the stone and left the gall bladder intact. Jill was happy! Ed went home happy that he still had his gall bladder and saved a ton of money!!!

The Symptoms… Most doctors say you can live without your gallbladder. I agree. You CAN live without your gallbladder…but there’s a BIG price to pay. IF you don’t have the gallbladder there to squirt the bile, which organ gets extra duty to break down fats? The liver of course! If the liver is already working extra hard breaking down fats, your chances are much higher of getting: Jaundice Skin rashes Hormonal Imbalance Low blood pressure Fatigue Weakness Weight Loss Poor appetite Nausea Fever …just to name a few liver problems if your gallbladder is removed.

Dr. Judy Says…. Why risk it? Instead, get rid of your gallstones naturally and save your gall bladder! Read on…

Here’s what to do if you DO have pain, but you want to save your gall bladder. First, check these symptoms: Symptoms of gallstones are often called a gallstone “attack” because they occur suddenly, especially right after a meal. A typical attack can cause: Steady pain in the upper abdomen or right side that increases rapidly and lasts from 30 minutes to several hours. Pain is sharp, cramping, or dull. Pain in the back between the shoulder blades Pain under the right shoulder Nausea or vomiting Gallstone attacks often follow fatty meals, such as a meal with meat and potatoes, deep fried foods, greasy foods. They may occur during the night. Other gallstone symptoms include: Abdominal bloating 5

Recurring intolerance of fatty foods Belching Gas Indigestion, heartburn

IMPORTANT NOTE If you have the above symptoms PLUS any of following symptoms you should see a doctor right away: ~ Sweating ~ Chills ~ Low-grade fever ~ Yellowish color of the skin or whites of the eyes ~ Clay-colored stools Still want to save your gallbladder??? Then read on…

Are YOU a Likely Candidate? … 8 Tips to Know If YOU Are Likely to Get Gallstones

1.) Women Women are much more inclined to develop gallstones than men. In fact, women between the ages of 30 and 39 have three times greater risk of gallstones than men in the same age group.

2) People over age sixty Age is also a major risk factor for both men and women. As you age, your chance of developing gallstones increase substantially, particularly after you hit age sixty.

3) Native Americans Most Native Americans, especially Pima Indians have one of the highest incidences of gallstones. This is particularly true in women.

4) Mexican Americans Those who eat their native foods rich in cheese and meats tend to form gall stones more readily.

5) Overweight men and women Obesity (weight greater than 120 percent of ideal body weight) is certainly a major risk factor as well. Even being moderately overweight increases your 7

chance for forming gallstones.

6) Lack of physical activity. A recently published study of more than 60,000 women showed that the risk of having a gallbladder attack is directly related to the amount of physical activity done. Women who sat all day at their desk were at a 2.3 times greater risk for needing gallbladder surgery compared to women who worked out daily. Similar findings have also been observed with men.

7) People who fast or lose a lot of weight quickly. Yo-yo diets are no-no diets! When weight is lost and gained too rapidly, this puts a tremendous stress on your liver and gallbladder, leading to excessive stones being formed.

8) Pregnant women, women on hormone therapy, and women who use birth control pills Sex hormones, especially estrogen, appear to be largely responsible for this, having been shown to promote gallstone formation. Along these lines, women who are on estrogen replacement therapy or oral contraceptives also seem to be at a higher risk for developing gallstones. Pregnancy, or a history of childbirth, are also risk factors for forming gallstones. One study reported that only 1.3 percent of women who have never given birth had gallstones, compared to a 12.2-percent prevalence of gallstones among women with a history of childbirth. Pregnant women, after they give birth, have been found to have less gallbladder problems within one to two months after delivery.

Where In The World Is Your Gallbladder Anyway? Your gallbladder is so small you wouldn’t think it could cause so much trouble! But this little tiny three inch sac is actually a muscular storage sac that can hold about one ounce of your bile. This is the same greenish-yellow bile fluid made by your liver and sometimes you “burp up” leaving you with a sour taste in your mouth. Your gallbladder is simply a storage site for the bile that your liver makes. It’s lined with a special mucus lining, which can absorb salts (minerals). It’s attached to and located on the under part of the liver. When bile is needed, the gallbladder contracts, forcing the bile into the common bile duct, which carries it to the small intestine to aid in digestion.

TESTING, Testing, testing… 6 Traditional Tests and … 6 Alternative Tips If You Do Have Gallstones Computed tomography (CT) scan may show the gallstones or complications. MR cholangiogram may diagnose blocked bile ducts.

Cholecystogram This test involves ingesting radiographic dye in pill form and taking an x-ray of your gallbladder. Cholescintigraphy (HIDA scan) is used to diagnose abnormal contraction of the gallbladder or obstruction. The patient is injected with a radioactive material that is taken up in the gallbladder, which is then stimulated to contract. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). If there is suspicion that a gallstone may be lodged in the bile duct, a test called an endoscopic retrograde pancreatogram (or ERCP) may be suggested. The patient swallows an endoscope--a long, flexible, lighted tube connected to a computer and TV monitor. The doctor guides the endoscope through the stomach and into the small intestine. The doctor then injects a special dye that temporarily stains the ducts in the biliary system. ERCP is used to locate and remove stones in the ducts.

10

Blood tests Blood tests may be used to look for signs of infection, obstruction, pancreatitis, or jaundice. Ultrasound If you have symptoms that might suggest the presence of gallstones, most often your doctor will order a test called an abdominal ultrasound or sonogram. This is a non-invasive test that utilizes sound waves, rather than x-rays, to create images. It is excellent for detecting gallstones and sludge. It is also useful in establishing whether the gallbladder appears inflamed.

Here’s how the medical doctors do it… Traditionally, doctors will only consider a non-surgical approach only in special situations--such as when a patient has a serious medical condition preventing surgery--and only for cholesterol stones. Stones usually recur after nonsurgical treatment. Oral dissolution therapy. Drugs made from bile acid are used to dissolve the stones. The drugs, ursodiol (Actigall) and chenodiol (Chenix), work best for small cholesterol stones. Months or years of treatment may be necessary before all the stones dissolve. Both drugs cause mild diarrhea, and chenodiol may temporarily raise levels of blood cholesterol and the liver enzyme transaminase.

11

Contact dissolution therapy. This experimental procedure involves injecting a drug directly into the gallbladder to dissolve stones. The drug--methyl tertbutyl ether--can dissolve some stones in 1 to 3 days, but it must be used very carefully because it is a flammable anesthetic that can be toxic. The procedure is being tested in patients with symptomatic, noncalcified cholesterol stones. Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL). This treatment uses shock waves to break up stones into tiny pieces that can pass through the bile ducts without causing blockages. Attacks of biliary colic (intense pain) are common after treatment, and ESWL's success rate is not known.

Dr. Judy Says….

Ok.You found out through tests that you definitely do have gallstones. Or did you? Remember…. Gallstone symptoms are similar to those of heart attack, appendicitis, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, hiatal hernia, pancreatitis, and hepatitis. So accurate diagnosis is important! Get a second, third and fourth opinion. Don’t give up until you have peace about it. If you have ALL the tests coming back positive, you can be assured you have gallstones. 12

What about all these traditional therapies? If you want to use therapies that: • take months or years of treatment… • have the stones form again… • can cause diarrhea… • are extremely toxic… • and definitely causes intense pain… Be my guest and go for it! This is why most doctors will recommend surgery. This includes a 4-5 day stay in the hospital, followed by a two to three week stay at home. Supposedly, this will solve ALL your problems! What they don’t tell you is that without a gallbladder, you will definitely have to watch everything you eat. If the food you eat contains even a tiny amount of fat, diarrhea is likely to occur.

7 Top Natural Therapies I used Successfully in my clinic to Eliminate Gallstones

Here’s what the traditional western medicine says about eliminating gallstones…. – If you want this, put this book down, run to your nearest pharmacist and tell me which hospital you are in so I can send you flowers after your surgery…

#1 Recommended drug for gallstones Brand name: Actigall Pronounced: AK-ti-gawl Generic name: Ursodiol Why is this drug prescribed? Actigall is used to help dissolve certain kinds of gallstones. If you suffer from gallstones but do not want to undergo surgery to remove them, or if age, infirmity, or a poor reaction to anesthesia makes you a poor candidate for surgery, Actigall treatment is usually recommended. 14

Most important fact about this drug… Actigall is not a quick remedy. It takes months of Actigall therapy to dissolve gallstones; and there is a possibility of incomplete dissolution and recurrence of stones.

What side effects may occur? • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Hmmmm… Decided not to go the local drug store???

Then read on to what DOES work, and yet can cost you very little time or money!

1) Castor Oil Packs The effect of castor oil packs on gallstones is to stimulate circulation. Many people have reported a sensation of warmth, more circulation, ‘like something stuck, is getting unstuck’. It’s applied to the abdomen. (best not to use if you are a woman during her menstrual cycle).

16

What You Will Need o Castor oil, cold pressed, organic o Cotton – 100% cotton diapers are best o Plastic – saran wrap or similar o Hot water bottle or hot towel o Large bath towel o 1-2 teaspoons baking soda

How to Apply the Pack Soak cotton diaper in the oil, and wring it out. Cloth should not be dripping. Place the oil on the abdomen, more toward your right side. Cover with saran wrap or some type of plastic. If you don’t do this, it will stain your sheets. Cover the area with the hot water bottle. Cover this with the large bath towel, to hold in the heat.

Now Rest!

REST!

REST!!!

17

Put your feet up and rest comfortably for at least (1) hour. The best is to put the castor oil pack on right before bedtime and sleep with it throughout the night.

After Your Therapy… Your skin will feel oily and gummy. Simply take a small amount (about a teaspoon) of baking soda that has been dissolved in 1 cup of water. Gently rub this solution with a wash cloth on the oily parts of your abdomen to remove the castor. How Often to Do Castor Oil Packs? Use the packs the whole time you are doing the Flushes. The best is to do the castor oil packs at least (1) week before your Flush. Then, about 1-2 days after.

18

2) Colon hydrotherapy If by now you don’t know how good colon hydrotherapy is for you, this is the time to learn! The best time to do them is BEFORE a gallbladder attack. But if you are having one right now, run to your nearest colon therapist and get cleaned out. Better yet, do it yourself. They are very easy to do and extremely comfortable. You will feel so much better afterwards, and you will wonder why you waited so long to do one. Colon hydrotherapy has been done by healers since the Egyptian era. This is the first recorded history of a physician drying out a gourd, then poking a hole in the narrow end. The other end had a larger hole poked through where the water was poured through to rinse out the colon. They had lots of other creative ways of doing the procedure but I won’t go into all the details of how it was done. At least you get the picture! Colon cleanses of some kind or another have been given right up until about 50 years ago. I’m sure many of you remember colonics being given to you by well-meaning grandmothers! Here are more resources for you to check out for finding a colon therapist: http://www.colonhealth.net http://www.i-act.org http://www.colonic-association.com

Types of Colon Hydrotherapy: Coffee Enema No one knows when the first daring soul filled the enema bag with coffee. What is known is that the coffee enema appeared at least as early as 1917 and was found in the prestigious Merck Manual until 1972. In the 1920’s German scientists found that a caffeine solution could open the bile ducts and stimulate the production of bile in the liver of experimental animals. Dr. Max Gerson used his clinic as part of a general detoxification regimen, first for tuberculosis, then cancer. He figured out that coffee will travel up the hemorrhoidal to the portal vein and then to the liver itself. Gerson noted some remarkable effects of this procedure. For instance, patients could stop with all pain-killers once on the coffee enemas.

"Patients have to know that the coffee enemas are not given for the function of the intestines but for the stimulation of the liver."

More information about Dr. Gerson and his clinics can be found here: http://www.gerson.org

The Difference Between Coffee Vs. Non-Coffee Enema When a coffee enema is used, the caffeine from the coffee is absorbed into the body and goes directly to the liver where it becomes a very strong detoxifier. The coffee speeds up the detoxification process compared to a plain water colon hydrotherapy. It causes the liver to produce more bile and moves the bile out toward the small intestine for elimination. This seems to free up the liver to process more incoming toxic materials that have accumulated in the organs, tissues and bloodstream.

20

Why Not Just Drink the Coffee? It sure would taste better to drink the stuff rather than having it go up the you-know-where! But when you’re having a gallstone attack, you definitely want to have every single therapy working for you quickly to get you out of pain. Coffee colon hydrotherapy has caffeine, theophylline and theobromine. These substances combine to stimulate causing a dilation of blood vessels and bile ducts. You always want those bile ducts working because when they don’t, stones form. The enzyme in coffee, palmitates, help the liver carry away the toxins in bile acid. When you take coffee through your anus, the veins that are so close to the surface absorb the caffeine very quickly. This is called the hemorrhoidal vein. The coffee is absorbed here and then carried directly to the liver by the portal vein. This in turn opens up the bile ducts, which carries away the toxins. At the same time, peristalsis kicks in. This is the movement of your bowels that gives you the urge “to go”. Never ignore this urge. When you first feel it, walk quickly to the nearest bathroom and take care of it! This way, the poison is being carried out of your body instead of being stored in your bowels which can cause all kinds of problems…like gall stones!

The Procedure Wherever you go to have your colon hydrotherapy done, make sure you have at least one coffee session. Ideally, you want to hold the coffee for at least 12 – 15 minutes. At first, you might not be able to do this since you have so much other fecal matter that has to come out. No worries. Don’t force it. Spend maybe 15 minutes just flushing out this old debris. Then, slowly allow the coffee to stay inside of your colon. Relax. Breathe deeply. Turn the lights off…

21

Sometimes, you will hear or feel a squirting or emptying of your gallbladder. You can feel the upper right part of your abdomen (underneath your right rib cage), feel more relaxed. Or empty. You will also know by the smell! It usually smells like a strong sour, putrid smell. This can happen next time you have a bowel movement.

Feeling Wired?

Sometimes you can feel wired, jumpy, hyper, or feel slight heart palpitations after a coffee enema. Just as if you drank a cup! I had this after my very first session and thought I was going to bounce off the walls. I am not a coffee drinker so I got a real strong buzz, which wore off after a couple of hours. Next time, I cut the coffee dose in half and that solved the problem. Or sometimes using organic coffee versus regular coffee can make the difference. NEVER USE DECAFFIENATED COFFEE!! It has waaayyyy too many chemicals!! Hate to shout at you, but I don’t want you to use more poisons when you’re working so hard to get rid of them. Decaffeinated coffee contains lots of chemicals that can harm you. That goes for drinking the stuff too. Stick with regular, organic coffee.

22

3) Hot/cold Hydrotherapy

What is hydrotherapy? This therapy has been around for centuries and was used by many of our great-great-great grandmothers. Hydrotherapy means “water therapy”. It is based on the effects of using alternate application of hot and cold water to specific areas of the body. History shows that the first hydrotherapy was used in the 1600’s by physicians on thousands of people whose conditions were considered incurable. Traditionally, medical doctors and physical therapies know that hot applications will relax the muscles and bring blood to the surface of the skin. Cold applications will decrease inflammation and drive blood deeper into the body. I am one of the few naturopaths in the United States who has effectively used hydrotherapy on cancer patients, diabetics, women with female problems, and gallstones. I have found that when hydrotherapy is used on specific areas of the body, blood flow increases tremendously. When more blood flows to an organ, circulation increases throughout the body, and healing begins.

Let’s Start With 2 Hydrotherapy Treatments The Shower The most effective way to use hydrotherapy is in the shower. Simply run very hot water on your lower abdomen for 2-3 minutes. Concentrate the water flow on your upper right part of your abdomen (underneath the right side of your rib cage). The water should be as hot as you can take it, but not so hot that it can burn you, so be careful!

23

After the hot water has been flowing directly on your abdomen, switch the water to cold. As cold as you can take it!! For 1 full minute. Scream, yell, shout but stay under that cold water! Keep thinking of how your gallstones will soon be coming out! Then switch back to the hot and let it flow again on your abdomen for 2-3 minutes. After the hot, switch back to the cold. Repeat this process of hot for 2-3 minutes to cold for 1 full minute at least 5 times.

Relax….relax….relax….

Afterwards, reward yourself with a soothing cup of hot chamomile or peppermint herbal tea and Relax! That was a big workout for your body.

Hot Blanket Pack (also called Fomentations) The use of heat to relieve pain has been used as far back as 450 B.C. Somehow, in our years of searching for a quick fix, we have lost the art of using this valuable form of therapy. When you use this along with the other therapies, you will notice immediate relief because the heat on the blood vessels dilate (opens) and the tension of the nerves relax. The heat pack therapy may be used as dry heat or moist heat. For gallstone pain, I recommend moist heat. Always follow heat therapy with a short application of cold.

24

What You Will Need: 6 quart pot of boiling water 4 Large cotton cloth diapers 1 large bath towel 1 wash cloth and bowl of ice water

How To Do A Fomentation: 1) Have the room warm. 2) Have the water boiling. Fold one cloth into thirds so it is nice and thick Grab corner ends and twist them as far as you can. Dip it into the boiling water while you are still holding onto the ends. Lift out of the water and twist tightly, still holding onto the dry ends. Untwist quickly and wrap in a dry cloth. 3) Wrap the dry cloth around the wet cloth by folding over it double. 4) Place on the upper right part of the abdomen. 5) Place the large bath towel over the heat pack to hold in the heat. 6) Leave on for 5 minutes. 7) Get the next one ready. Switch when the first pack has cooled down. 8) Repeat this 3 times. 9) After the last heat pack, place the cold wash cloth from the ice water on the area. 10)

Cover with the bath towel and leave on for a full minute.

25

Dr. Judy Says…. I recommend NOT using a water bottle for severe pain. Moist heat is a thousand times more effective than a water bottle. Electric heat pads are definitely on the bottom of the list for effectiveness.

26

4) Massage

Most of us know massage is excellent for relaxation. Did you know massage can also be use to relieve pain? Remember… bring more blood flow to the area of inflammation, and the body will heal much more quickly. When used in combination with the Hydrotherapy, it will bring amazing results. The most effective massage is the one done immediately after the Hot/Cold Therapy. You don’t need a massage therapist for this! You or a friend can do this.

How To Do It  Rub the area with olive oil. Always stroke toward your heart.  Stay relaxed.  Rub the arms, stomach, legs and even your head. Squeeze, stroke, rub, with every part of your hand. Get that circulation going!  On your abdomen, you will want to use circular movements to stimulate your liver. Starting from the right, make small circles with your fingertips, pressing as firmly as you are able. Move slightly over to the next area and repeat. About 10 circles for each area.  Continue massaging until the whole abdomen has been covered. Tip – if you get tired, use a tennis ball. Place the ball on your abdomen and the flat of your hand on top of the ball. Roll the ball in a circular motion the same as above.

5) Juices – Apple/ Lemon water

BENEFITS OF JUICE THERAPY Fresh raw juice is the best multi-vitamin and mineral supplement known to man! Not only does it provide all the essential nutrients that have been isolated, but many nutrients that man has yet to discover. It is a complete, living food, offering healing nutrients in their whole, balanced organic form. Everyone can benefit from juicing regardless of their condition. Juicing makes the nutrients in fruits and vegetables more highly concentrated. Therefore, a glass of juice can be considered a meal in itself. If you are concerned about getting all the nutrients you need, drink at least one 8 ounce glass of fresh raw vegetable juice daily. It is like liquid gold to your body! Raw foods provide the nutrients and enzymes needed to heal the entire body, including the digestive system. However, most people's digestive systems are so toxic and inefficient that the ability to break down raw fruits and vegetables is minimal. A weakened digestive system is unable to digest the very foods that will heal it, namely raw fruits and vegetables. The remedy for this situation is simple: raw juice therapy! Nutrients in the juiced form are easier to assimilate, since juiced foods require little or no digestion. This increases the efficiency of the healing process because the nutrients of raw fruits and vegetables are readily available for assimilation. It is like getting your healing nutrients wholesale!

28

What are the benefits of juice therapy? *Juiced foods require little or no digestion *Juiced foods are easier to assimilate *Juicing increases the efficiency of the healing process *Juicing is liquid gold for your body!

Best Ways to Juice o Use freshly made raw juice diluted 25-50% with distilled water, or full strength. o Do not use commercially produced juices. They may contain sugars, preservatives, and other additives. In addition, heat from the pasteurization process has destroyed the enzymes which are essential for life! o Drink the juice alone not with solid food. Since juice is a meal in itself, taking it with food will overload the digestive system. Wait 1 hour after eating. o Sip or drink slowly. This allows for better assimilation. o Do not combine fruits and vegetables. They require different digestive processes. *All fruits may be mixed together *All vegetables may be mixed together *All melons may be mixed together Exception: Apples and celery can be mixed with fruit or vegetables. o When making juice use 80% carrot or tomato. Carrot and tomato juice are relatively sweet and will carry the taste of other vegetables. 29

How to Flush Out Your Gallstones RIGHT NOW Here are pictures of actual gallstones that were flushed out of people …

31

How do you rate? Everyone has a different pain tolerance. Just because you choose one flush over another doesn’t mean you’re a wimp OR a super human! The point here is just pick ONE flush – and do it immediately!

Here’s the system I came up with in my clinic to help you decide which flush to use: (the easier flushes are listed at the end)

Rating system: * Easy flush - easy to do, but you have to do it repeatedly to get results. ** Medium flush – don’t have to do it as much, but there’s lots of prep work. *** Hard flush – no prep work, you will likely experience nausea, will definitely see stones flushed the first time. Do this one if you’re feeling desperate!

32

Are These Flushes Safe? Absolutely! I’ve seen thousands of stones coming out of people of all ages. No one had any problems if they followed the instructions. The worse that happens is some nausea or vomiting, although if you eat light meals a few days before, there usually isn’t a problem. It sure beats having surgery and the pain that comes after that. Plus, once the gallbladder is removed, you will always have to watch everything you eat that contains fats. Even good fats have to be drastically reduced. There’s no guarantee when you put yourself into the hands of the surgeons. Why not take care of your gallstones yourself safely and effectively? Flush #1

Rating: * Easy Flush

What You’ll Need: 1/2 cup extra virgin, cold pressed, organic Olive Oil 1 grapefruit (red, pink, white – doesn’t matter) 4 tablespoons EPSOM salts 3 cups purified water 1 ripe, organic lemon The Cocktail Squeeze one lemon and use one tablespoon of olive oil, into a blender or glass. Blend for 60 seconds (or shake it). Drink it straight. If you have a juicer, juice the lemon with rind and all. Pour in the olive oil and drink. If the taste is hard to get down, use a straw. Drink (1) 8 ounce cup before bed and (1) 8 ounce cup first thing in the morning. If necessary, drink before lunch time as well. Drink always on an empty stomach. More instructions below….

33

Sample Schedule: Upon rising: Eat a light fruit salad Drink plenty of water throughout the morning Lunch: vegetable soup or fresh salad or steamed veggies After 2:00 don’t eat or drink anything else. ** Very important! If you eat or drink anything, you WILL get severe cramps! 2:00 pm Epsom Salts: Mix 4 tablespoons in 3 cups purified water and pour into a jar. Set aside. 6:00 pm Drink three fourths cup of Epsom Salt Mix. Add Emergen – C for taste if you so desire. 8:00 pm Start getting ready for bed. Get your lemon/grapefruit/olive oil drink ready. 9:00 pm Go to the bathroom one more time. On the way back, put your drink next to your bed. Drink the Cocktail drink and immediately lie down on your right side. Relax. Don’t move around. You need to stay laying down at least 1 hour in order for the stones to soften and pass. Best is to lay on your right side all night long if possible. Next Morning: Drink the last dose of Epsom Salts. Go back to bed if you feel like it. After 2 hours, you can eat. Start with fresh fruit juice like apple – preferably Granny Smith apple. Then eat fresh fruit like pineapple, peaches, grapes.

34

During the Day: Eat light throughout the day like salads, vegetable soup, steamed vegetables. At dinner, if you’re hungry, lightly steamed vegetables again. What Happened? You can expect diarrhea. Take your flashlight and start looking for gallstones like the pictures above. They should have a greenish tinge to them, and floating. Count them up roughly and write that number down. You might see a few hundred before your pain is totally gone. Good News! The first flush will definitely eliminate some of your stones. But to get them ALL out, you need to repeat the flush every 2 weeks until you feel the stones are gone or when your symptoms are gone. You can speed the whole flushing process by getting a colonic…which I mentioned previously.

Dr. Judy says… ~ Doing this on the weekend is a great idea since you get a chance to rest the next day. ~ Don’t take any medications, vitamins, or other supplements except the ones for the flush. This will only slow down the process. ~ Do a colon hydrotherapy at the same time to get better results. Seeing a colon therapist is the best. (read the chapter on “Top 7 Natural Therapies I Used in My Clinic”) ~ Eat light! Fresh fruit and fresh or steamed vegetables. No heavy meals such as meats of any kind, no dairy products, or breads or pastas.

Flush #2 – Dr. William Donald Kelley, DDS Author: “One Answer to Cancer”

Rating: ** Medium Hard

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients: Apple juice – organic, freshly juiced if possible Purified water Phosfood Liquid (http://www.standardprocessing.com) Or Super Phos 30 (same product) Epsom Salts Cream, kefir, or organic whole milk ice cream Alka seltzer gold 1 organic, ripe Lemon 1 organic, ripe grapefruit

Cocktail Drink: Preparation: Drink as much Organic (or 100% pure) APPLE JUICE as comfortable, for 5 - 6 days before the liver flush, in order to soften gallstones. For maximum softening, add PHOSFOOD drops (ortho-phosphoric acid) to the apple juice, for a total of 60 drops per day. Rinse your teeth after taking the ortho-phosphoric acid: Brush them briefly with a BAKING SODA solution (or Milk of Magnesia), to neutralize the acid.

36

Sample Schedule: START 3 hours following dinner, and 7 hours before bed, typically on a Saturday. (For example, if you go to be at 11 pm bedtime, finish eating dinner by 1 pm.) Take 2 Tablespoons (1 oz.) EPSOM SALTS, dissolved in 6 oz. purified water. Then rinse your mouth with water. (Use a "shaker jar" to dissolve the Epsom salts. The taste is much less objectionable with cool water.) Drink more water, as desired... NOTE: Epsom salts are MgSO4 -- magnesium sulfate -- an intestinal purge, and also a muscle relaxant for the bile ducts and the gall bladder, to prevent cramps and retention of gall stones. Epsom salts are available in drug stores. Hour 2 Optional, but always to be used if "stomach cramps" should occur during the liver flush. (This is rare when using epsom salts. Cramps would indicate that stones are lodged in, and blocking liver ducts.) However, this step is very beneficial in ALL cases, to stimulate the liver's release of waste and bile. Begin with several plain, warm-water enemas - then follow with a 4 cup ORGANIC COFFEE enema. Use 1 Tablespoon (1/2 oz.) coffee per cup, drip-filtered. Dissolve 1/2 cup (4 oz.) EPSOM SALTS into the hot coffee, then cool the coffee down to 98 - 100 degrees F. (body temperature) before using. (You can rapidly cool the pan in a sink of cold water.) Retain the coffee enema for 10 - 15 minutes, while relaxing in a reclining position on a floor mat. Hour 3 Take 1 Tablespoon EPSOM SALTS, dissolved in 4 oz. cool water. Then rinse your mouth with water. Drink more water, as desired... Hour 4.5 (Optional) This step is used to increase bile flow, which helps dislodge stones deep in the liver ducts. This step also helps to eliminate hunger. Eat: 8 oz. CREAM on fresh berries or other fresh fruit - mix. (use organic heavy cream, without carrageenan or other preservatives)

37

Other Options: These variations have also worked - 8 oz. organic cream and 6 - 8 oz. fruit KEFIR, mixed. OR… 16 - 32 oz. vanilla HIGH-FAT ICE CREAM. (quality ice cream, without carrageenan or other preservatives)

Hour 7 Bedtime -- Have the required items prepared : Have a TIMER handy, and also ALKA-SELTZER "GOLD". Take 4 oz. room-temperature Organic OLIVE OIL, followed by 4 oz. freshsqueezed LEMON JUICE. NOTE: Olive oil, taken following the above procedure, causes the liver ducts and the gall bladder to forcefully contract, and expel their collection of gall gravel and gall stones. (The acid lemon juice speeds the transit of the olive oil thru the stomach and into the duodenum, which helps prevent or minimize nausea.) Next: Rinse your teeth: Brush them briefly with a BAKING SODA solution (or Milk of Magnesia), to neutralize the acid of the lemon juice. *** Go Immediately to Bed, "face down." Pull your right knee fully upwards, towards your right shoulder. A pillow under your left shoulder will help. Now relax into this position, and then shift your weight to your right side. Keep your right knee held fully upwards, to your chest. Using a TIMER, hold this position for 30 minutes. (You can briefly stretch your right leg, if necessary.) Gall bladder contractions and expulsion of stones will occur at this time. These can often be felt. Optional, but helpful: Massage your gallbladder with your finger tips, up under your right ribs. After 30 minutes - relax, stretch out, and go to sleep. If any nausea or acid-reflux is felt during the night, get up and immediately take ALKA-SELTZER "GOLD" in water (the "Gold" type contains no aspirin). This is safe and effective. The following morning, immediately do the following… Take 2 Teaspoons EPSOM SALTS, dissolved in 3 oz. cool water. Next, drink 8 - 12 ounces of water. Later, drink more water or orange juice, as desired. Wait 2 - 3 hours before eating a light breakfast. 38

Plan to repeat the liver flush at least 6 times, especially when large gall stones (one half to one inch across) are expelled -- or when there is a large volume of stones (more than about 1/4 cup)..If few (or no) gall stones are seen, this is OK -- however this is usually a false negative. Repeat the flush in 4 - 6 weeks. When a large volume of gall stones is seen, the liver flush should be repeated in 2 weeks. After the initial series, repeat the liver flush 2 - 4 times per year, for "maintenance."

Liver cleanse + Gallbladder cleanse + Liver flush = NO surgery

Dr. Judy says… ~ Doing a colon hydrotherapy session will quickly make you feel better after the first cocktail. Usually 1-2 hours after drinking your flush is the best time to do a colonic. ~ Laying on your right side is extremely important so the oil can soften up the gallstones and squeeze them through the bile duct.

Flush #3 Claude M. Lewis, Edith Hiett, Leon Hiett Author “Are You Stoned?”

Rating: *** Hard

This is the Flush to use if you have pain NOW and want to eliminate your stones immediately! Cocktail Recipe Ingredients One pint of cold virgin olive oil. One half-pint of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Peppermint oil Pineapple or V8 juice Measuring cup or tablespoon size measuring spoon Pitcher of purified water Paint stirring stick Jar with screw-on lid Index cards Net or colander to drape under the toilet seat, to catch your stones

Cocktail Drink Pick a day when you have nothing much to do the next day, and preferably even the day after. Friday is best for most people who have the weekend off. Don't make any plans to go out! DO NOT EAT ANY SOLID FOOD at noon on the treatment day. You may drink water or fresh juices, as much as you like. DO NOT HAVE ANY FLUIDS after 6:30 pm (or 30 minutes before the 40

start of your treatment) on the day of treatment. Give your stomach time to evacuate all the fluids. Then the olive oil won't float up on top of the fluid and your chances of nausea will be greatly reduced. Place the net under you toilet seat so it will be ready when you need it. Lift the seat and place the net across the porcelain stool, then replace the seat so it will hold the net in place. Place the pitcher of water and the paint stirring stick next to the toilet ready for when you need them. Also have handy the screw-on lid for storing your gall stones and the index card. If you should experience extreme nausea or vomiting, try chasing it with a small amount of V8 juice or pineapple juice. Or you might try adding a few drops of peppermint oil to the olive oil. Use one of these mixtures for a couple of doses and then go back to the olive oil and lemon juice without adding anything.

Sample Schedule 12 Noon -Stop eating all solid food 6.30 pm- Stop drinking all fluids 7.00 pm- Using a measuring device, pour ¼ cup (four tablespoonfuls) of olive oil and drink it. Follow immediately with one or two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice. Lie down and relax. Repeat this every 15 minutes. Sit up, swallow it and lie down again. If possible, have someone else bring them to you. Relax, read or watch television. Repeat the exact dosage every 15 minutes until you have swallowed the pint of olive oil. If there is any lemon juice left, drink it all. It is now probably 10:00 or 10:30 pm If you have terrible nausea or vomiting sensations, use the peppermint oil in the olive oil, or chase the olive oil with a small amount of V8 or pineapple juice, until you can resume taking the plain olive oil and lemon juice. 41

While you are taking the olive oil and lemon juice, if it gets hard to swallow, take a little more time between doses. Try 20 minutes between doses, or 25 minutes. Try to swallow all of the oil and lemon juice. If you are too nauseated to get it all down, take as much as you possibly can. You have finished the olive oil and lemon juice. Now go to bed and do your best to go to sleep. Lie on your right side. This position speeds up the process of the olive oil entering the gallbladder to act as a lubricant. This, along with the softening action of the lemon juice, will help to free the stones more easily and readily from the gallbladder. Stay in bed and forget everything until the urge to go the toilet comes. About 2:00 or 3:00 am you'll probably wake up with the unmistakable urge to go to the toilet. It may not happen. For some, it doesn't happen until 11:00 am the next day. If your first bowel movement is at 2:00 or 3:00 am you will probably have no stones in it, but you'll want to check to be sure using a flashlight. When you have the first bowel movement after the treatment, you'll use the pitcher of water and the paint stirring stick to wash the fecal material through the net. Pour water gently and use the stick to separate the stones from the fecal material. The fecal material will be runny and wash through the net. You can use the index card, folded in half, as a makeshift shovel. Place the stones in the jar and screw the lid on. You may want to show your stones to some people. Many will be amazed, but some will still be unbelievers. You certainly want to keep your stones for a while to remind yourself that it was all worthwhile. After a few days they will dissolve (because of the lemon juice and oil). If you want to keep them for an indefinite period, store them in your freezer with a label - GALLSTONES.

42

DON'T' EAT!!!! You may notice green objects and maybe greenish liquid excrement in the toilet bowel. Those are small gallstones. Some gallstones may be dissolved by the treatment. Dr. Lewis found that 1% of people failed to pass gallstones. If you are one of them, don't be disappointed. In some individuals, the powerful action of the lemon juice causes the stones to dissolve before they are passed out of the body. IF you have only greenish liquid bowel movements, the treatment has been effective. Some people (including doctors) will say that your gall stones are not gallstones but fecal matter. To quote from Dr Lewis:

"To clarify the situation and eliminate such questions, I sent a sample of gall stones to a medical analysis lab run by a Ph.D. who heads up the Science Department at Texas Woman's University in Denton. He ran the necessary tests… His analysis of the stone sample I sent was 91% cholesterol and the rest was bile salts, water and inert ingredients. In other words, the sample had the chemical contents of gallstones. And the report clearly states it was gallstones".

43

Dr. Judy says…. ~ This can be an extreme flush in that most people will notice some nausea. Use the peppermint oil or peppermint tea which is also helpful. ~Using the net to get the gallstones is a great idea if you want to save them. Another idea is to pick up a cheap spaghetti colander and place it in the toilet bowl. Simply lift it up and you can use the paint stick to sort through the stones.

44

Flush #4 (with orthophosphoric acid)

Rating: ** Medium Hard

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients 1 gallon apple juice (freshly pressed) 2 ounces orthophosphoric acid (Phosfood from http://www.standardprocessing.com or Ortho phos from Nutra-Dyn) Enema bag and colon tube Coffee Epsom Salts Organic whipping cream and berries Olive oil –organic, cold pressed, extra virgin Orange, lemon, or grapefruit – organic, ripe Cocktail Drink Add one bottle (2 ounces) of orthophosphoric acid to the gallon of apple juice. Shake and refrigerate. Over the next three to five days, drink the gallon of juice (three to four 8-ounce glasses a day) between meals. Be sure to rinse your mouth out with baking soda and/or brush your teeth after drinking the juice to prevent the acid from damaging the teeth. Eat normally during the liver flush.

45

Sample Schedule On the day following whatever day you finish the gallon of juice, eat your normal breakfast and lunch. Two hours after lunch, drink 1–2 tablespoons of Epsom Salts dissolved in warm water. Four hours after lunch, do a one pint coffee enema. Five hours after lunch, drink 1 tablespoon of Epsom Salts dissolved in warm water. Six or seven hours after lunch, eat a dinner of heavy whipping cream and frozen or fresh berries – as much as desired. At bedtime, drink 1/2 cup of olive oil. A small amount of orange, grapefruit, or lemon juice may be added if desired. Immediately after drinking the oil, go to bed and lie on your right side with knees drawn up for 30 minutes. You may feel nauseated during the night. This is due to the release of stored toxins from the gallbladder and liver. This is normal and a sign that the protocol is working. Upon arising in the morning, do a coffee enema. The orthophosphoric acids helps remove calcium and lipids (fats) from the arteries and normalizes cholesterol metabolism. The phosphoric acid working with the malic acid found in apple juice dissolves and softens gallstones. The magnesium in the Epsom Salts relaxes the sphincter of the gallbladder and bile ducts, allowing for the easy passage of the softened, shrunken stones. Finally, the cream and oil cause a strong contraction of the gallbladder and liver, forcing out stored wastes, bile, and stones which easily pass into the small intestine. These wastes and stones are then excreted.

46

Dr. Judy says… ~ This flush is rated medium hard because of all the “extras” you have to have. The supplements, Epsom salts, enema bag, whipped cream. If you are not in too much pain, this flush will work for you. ~ Using standard Process’s Phosfood 30 is essential for this flush. Don’t skip it! You might also be able to get it at health food stores or some chiropractors carry it.

Flush #5 “Classic Coke” Flush

Rating – * Easy Check Warning

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients 5 ounces classic coke 6 oz. olive oil, organic, cold-pressed, extra virgin 2 tablespoons lemon juice apple juice – organic, freshly squeezed if possible magnesium citrate

Sample Schedule: AT BEDTIME take the following: 5 ounces CLASSIC coke 6 oz. Virgin Olive Oil 2 Tablespoons lemon juice (freshly pressed juice) NEXT MORNING UPON AWAKENING: 10 ounces Citrate of Magnesium. NEXT 30 DAYS: Drink 4 oz. apple juice FIRST THING in the morning and LAST thing at night. Apple juice should be freshly pressed! (borrow or buy a juicer for this one). This will help to decrease the side effects of the flush such as nausea and headache. Following the flush, in the next few hours or few days, hundreds of stones may be dumped out of the gallbladder. Take a look at the toilet! Magnesium Citrate (White powder) is magnesium salt of citric acid. Chemical formula: C6H6MgO7 It is possible to order it from a pharmacy. It is almost always diluted with water.

48

Dr. Judy says… ~ Sorry folks, I can’t see how coke will do anything but cause lots of problems in the long run. I’ve heard it works for some people, but anything that is known to dissolve my teeth will definitely not be going into my body. ~ Only do this if you don’t care about the consequences that the coke will do to your teeth or other organs. ~ Magnesium citrate is not in all drugstores, a necessary ingredient for this flush. Check your drugstore first. ~ I only include this flush because a couple of my patients used it successfully and didn’t care about the consequences. It’s up to you. Read on for more easy flushes…

Flush #6 “Cleansing or Surgery"

Rating: * Easy

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients 4 gallons of apple juice 4 gallons of steam distilled water 1/2 c extra virgin, cold pressed olive oil 3 lemons (or enough to make 1/4 cup lemon juice) tomato juice - 1 tablespoon 1 straw (optional)

Cocktail Drink This gallbladder cleanse takes 4 days to complete and is simple and inexpensive. Each day for 4 days you drink up to 1 gallon of apple juice and up to 1 gallon of distilled water. You will not feel hungry. The apple juice will give you energy. Take it easy during this time to allow the body to work on cleansing. This is not the time to do hard physical work. Each morning or evening, do an enema or colonic to help remove toxins that are being released. It is important to take a daily colonic or enema because poisons settle in the rectum and these poisons need to be expelled from the body before they cause problems. Drinking the Oil On the evening of the third night when you are tired and ready for bed, drink 1/2 cup of extra virgin, cold pressed olive oil. Right after taking the 1/2 cup of olive oil, drink 1/4 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice. Then go directly to bed and lie down on your right side with two pillows under the right hip. You may change your position after 4 or 5 hours. 50

Fourth Day On the morning after drinking the oil, you will probably want to lie in bed and take it easy. Use the time for prayer and quiet meditation. You might want to watch videos or listen to relaxing music or read. You won't be in pain. Continue drinking apple juice and distilled water. Reactions to Cleanse After drinking the oil and lemon, you may feel like burping or vomiting. You might sip on a little tomato juice. The acid and the salt in the juice help cut the oil. Don't drink more than a tablespoon or so of the tomato juice. You might want to just hold it in your mouth and then spit it out. Sometime during the night, you may vomit or be nauseated. This is caused by the gallbladder ejecting the stones with such force that it shoots the oil back into the stomach. When the oil returns to the stomach, you get sick. You may be able to feel the expulsion of stones. It will not be a sharp pain, just a mild contraction. In all honesty, you may spend a miserable night. But it is only one night of discomfort. Recovery from conventional gallbladder surgery involves many months of pain and suffering as the scar tissue mends. Continue doing daily enemas or colonics for 2 or 3 more days after you expel the gallstones to help clean out the toxins that are coming into the colon from the cleanse. For 3 or 4 days following the fast, eat plenty of raw fruits and vegetables and drink unsweetened juices to restart the digestive mechanisms. Eat small meals and watch to see if there is pain after eating. If so, go more slowly. Fruits are easiest to digest. On the second day after the cleanse, a simple vegetable soup with plenty of broth is good.

51

Dr. Judy says…. ~ Good points to note here – do not do hard physical work during this time. This is so true. If you were in the hospital, would you be cleaning your house or taking the dog for a walk? Rest! Focus on your healing. ~. Consider doing colonics over enemas. They are much more effective, relaxing, and safer when a professional does the therapy for you.

52

Flush #7 Heavy Duty Flush

Rating: *** Hard

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients Epsom Salts - 3-4 tablespoons Distilled Water - at least 90 ounces Freshly pressed lemon juice (20 tablespoons) Olive Oil - cold pressed, organic, extra virgin at least 1 pint (16 ounces)

Cocktail Drink Maintain an EMPTY STOMACH SIX to eight hours before proceeding with the cleanse. You may drink water. [After your noon meal, for example, fast until 6-8 p.m., then begin the cleanse] HOWEVER, one hour before beginning the cleanse, place 3-4 tablespoons of Epsom salts in a 10 oz. glass of distilled water – drink it ALL. In an 8 oz. glass put 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. Then add the juice of two lemons and fill glass with distilled water. You will need 10 glasses of this mixture. According to what is most convenient to you, you may prepare 10 glasses of the mixture in the beginning or re-mix each glass of water, oil and lemon juice every 15 minutes.

53

Sample Schedule Drink one glass of the mixture every 15 minutes until you have drunk 10 glasses of the mixture. To offset the taste, place a small amount of pure maple syrup on the tip of your tongue when drinking mixture. Also it helps to drink through a straw. By the following morning, if you have not eliminated, it helps to eat 1 or 2 Fuji apples. After the cleanse regimen, as a sleep aid, you may take one or two cups of grapefruit juice before retiring.

54

Dr. Judy says…. ~ This flush is difficult because of the enormous amount of juice and water you have to drink. If you’re not used to drinking this much, you will literally feel like you’re floating away. Be sure to be at home, with a clear path to the bathroom at all times! ~ The amount of olive oil will definitely give you a reaction. You will either throw up or expel lots and lots of gallstones. ~ Use this flush only when you feel desperate and the pain is unbearable.

55

Flush #8

Apple Mix Flush

Rating: ** Medium

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients 4-6 green Granny Smith apples OR 4-5 glasses organic apple juice 2 tablespoons Olive oil – organic, cold pressed, extra virgin 2 tablespoons Lemon juice – ripe, organic OR use grapefruit juice 8 oz. purified water

Cocktail Drink Days 1-6 Eat 4-6 apples (green apples like Granny Smith work best) or drink 4-5 glasses of organic, unfiltered apple juice from morning to night. (You can eat normally, unless you have had experience fasting. Fast only under supervision.) Approximately 1 hour before bed mix: 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons lemon juice – 8 ounces purified water (use hot water if you want) Drink down and go to bed and lie on right side. Repeat for 6 days. Day 7 Give yourself an enema first thing in the morning. Repeat Cocktail drink but increase portions: 1 hour before bed mix: 2/3 cup extra virgin, cold pressed olive oil 56

1/3 cup lemon juice 8 ounces purified water Sip slowly, when done then go to bed and lie on your right side. Upon Rising: Give yourself a chlorophyll or coffee enema or have a colonic. This step is a must, because if your colon is not cleared completely prior to this flush you will experience unpleasant symptoms such as; nausea, heartburn, cramping, headaches etc. These symptoms are due to the toxins in the stagnant bile that has been flushed out of the gallbladder into the intestines and the blood.

Dr. Judy says….. ~ This is a pretty easy flush to start with. It’s Day 7 that it becomes a bit hard.Use peppermint tea or few drops of peppermint oil to help nausea. ~ The best antidote for nausea as mentioned in this flush is to do a colonic. This will keep the cramps away and the nausea won’t be as bad.

57

Flush #8

The Classic Flush

Rating: *** Hard

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients 10 lemons 1 cup olive oil, organic, extra virgin, cold pressed

Cocktail Drink In the evening: squeeze juice from 10 lemons and mix it with 1 cup of olive oil. Drink it QUICKLY. Sample Schedule Eat only a fat-free breakfast the day of the cleanse, and then fast (eat nothing). Drink the Cocktail.

Walk all night. Empty bowels into the toilet and catch stones with a colander.

58

Dr. Judy says…. ~ This flush looks short and sweet. But you will feel like a bloated cow ready to explode! Don’t let the short recipe fool you! This is very hard to do. ~ Walking all night is not a maybe, you MUST do it if you do this flush. The walking will increase movement in your liver and gall bladder and allow the stones to pass easily. You will end up having lots of diarrhea or bowel movements. That’s good when the stones come out at the same time. ~ If you’re desperate and you have someone to hold you up as you walk around, this is the one for you.

Dr. Judy’s Easy Flush

Rating: *Super Easy

Feel free to do any or all of the flushes above. Here’s the one I used mostly in my clinic that I developed. It’s more progressive and allows the body to expel the stones at a slower pace.

Cocktail Recipe Ingredients 1 whole lemon, organic, fully ripened 1 tablespoon Olive oil, organic, extra virgin, cold pressed 1 clove garlic 1 whole grapefruit, peeled 8-10 large apples, organic if possible (use any hard crisp apple – but NOT Delicious apples – these are sprayed with lots of chemicals) OR drink 1 gallon fresh, unfiltered, organic apple juice

Cocktail Drink  The trick here is to use a blender, a juicer, and a straw. Juice the whole lemon, clove of garlic, and peeled grapefruit. Pour it into the blender with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pour it into a cup and if its not quite 10 ounces, add purified water. Drink immediately.

60

Sample Schedule Here’s where I separate myself from others. It’s the pre-cleanse and post cleanse that helps tremendously! 3-4 days Before Flush Drink at least 1 quart of apple juice daily. Eat 3 very light meals: Breakfast: fresh fruit salad or eggs and apple juice Mid Morning: drink 8 ounces of apple juice Lunch: eat a fresh green salad (dark leafy greens, tomatoes, broccoli, etc) With a light olive oil and vinegar dressing. OR Vegetable sandwich Mid afternoon: have (2) 8 ounce glasses apple juice Dinner: Steamed veggies (carrots, sweet potatoes, asparagus, beets, cauliflower, etc (look at the chapter on 75 Best Foods to Eat Gallstones From Ever Coming Back…) OR Fish, chicken, or turkey with steamed veggies Evening: (1) 8 ounce glass apple juice BEFORE BED: Juice grapefruit, lemon, and garlic. Add to blender with olive oil. Drink quickly (you can use a straw). Lay on your right side for at least one hour and hopefully you will fall asleep without getting up to go to the bathroom. The next morning you should have a bowel movement, so watch for stones. If this doesn’t happen, repeat each day but INCREASE the olive oil by one tablespoon. First night – drink cocktail using (1) tablespoon olive oil. IF no stones are expelled, then increase to using (2) tablespoons. Next night, add (3) tablespoons oil to blender, etc.

61

It is vitally important that you do colonics during this time. Having a good colonic will keep you from: • • • • • •

Vomiting Nausea Dizzy spells Headaches Weakness Fatigue

Also, make sure you keep a light work schedule. Remember, your body is focused on healing. If you work hard or do hard physical work, your body will take a much longer time to expel the stones. Instead, take time to watch movies, read, walk, get a massage and do anything and everything you can think of to relax. The stones will come out much quicker and with much less pain when you do it this way.

Top 8 Herbs to Use for Gallstone Elimination Bitter Herbs for a Bitter Organ Your liver and gallbladder needs lots of bitter foods to keep them functioning at top level. Unfortunately, our society focuses on feeding the sweet tooth. Do you wonder why? Would you buy a delicious cup of herbal tea that is so bitter it would curl your toes? Actually, you do! There’s a multi- million dollar industry doing just that..its called Coffee! Coffee wouldn’t be half so bad if it didn’t contain the long list of negative chemicals that poisons the bloodstream. But that’s a different book… What you have to know at this point is that you need foods and herbs that will stimulate the bile flow again. The best herbs are those that are very, very bitter and soothing to the digestive system. The ones that I have listed are the most common ones that I used in my clinic. They are easy to find in most parts of the world.

63

If you can only find one or two, that’s fine. The point is to start with what you have and consistently use it BEFORE meals. The reason is that the bitter herb will kick in to stimulate bile flow, which in turn helps the liver break down fats, which in turn gets your digestive system running smoothly.

Dr. Judy Says…. If you already have gallstones, I would suggest using the bitter herbs every hour on the hour. Eventually, your tongue will become numb and you won’t notice the bitterness. If you have to take it by spoonfuls, that’s ok. Just get it into your mouth!

Here’s the list of herbs: :

64

1) Oregon Grape Root (berberis aquifolium) Oregon grape root stimulates the secretion of bile. Therefore it helps digestion as well as purifying the blood. Extremely bitter. Recommended - take (1) teaspoon of tincture, 3-4 times daily

2) Milk Thistle also known as Blessed Milk Thistle, Holy Thistle (cerebenia benedicta) This plant has a very great power in purification and circulation of the blood Excellent stimulant tonic for the stomach and heart. It aids circulation and helps resolve all liver problems. An infusion is made using (1) ounce of dried herb to a pint of boiled water. It is taken one-half cup each, three times daily between meals. OR as a tincture, take (1) tablespoon each time. Recommended – Drink (1) cup twice a day 2 ounces of the dried herb simmered in a quart of water for 2 hours. Best used at bedtime as a preventative. Will cause profuse perspiration. Excellent when combined with yellow dock or burdock. Extremely bitter.

65

3) Dandelion (taraxacum officinalis) The chief benefits of this great herb are exerted upon the function of the liver, and it has the capacity to clear obstructions and stimulate the liver to detoxify poisons. Especially useful for clearing obstruction of the gallbladder. Dandelion green has been used much in the same way as spinach or fresh green salad. Dandelion has 28 parts natural sodium. The natural nutritive salts purify the blood and destroy the acids in the blood. Anemia is caused by the deficiency of nutritive salts in the blood, and really has nothing to do with the quantity of good blood. It is one of the oldest well-known remedies for gallstones and the liver. The root is used to increase the flow of urine, and is slightly laxative. It is a splendid remedy for increasing the activity of the liver, especially in the enlargement of the liver and spleen. The ground roots makes an excellent substitute for coffee. Extremely bitter. Recommended: Use (1) tablespoon in a quart of hot water. Let soak overnight or at least 4 hours. Drink one cup every ½ hour.

66

4) Yellow Dock (rumex crispus) Wonderful blood purifier! Yellow dock is an astringent blood purifier useful in treating diseases of the blood and chronic skin ailments. It stimulates digestion, improving the function of the stomach and liver, and also stimulates elimination, improving flow of bile and acting as a laxative. It is a nutritive tonic, high in iron and useful in treating anemia. It also nourishes the spleen and liver, thus being effective for the treatment for jaundice. Recommended: may be added in small amounts to herb tea formulas or taken in gelatin capsules, 1-2 capsules each time. Extremely bitter.

5) Peppermint (mentha piperita) This is one of the oldest household remedies and should be in every garden or flower pot in the kitchen. Peppermint is a general stimulant. A strong cup of peppermint tea will act more powerfully on the system than any liquor stimulant. It quickly diffuses itself through the system and brings back the body to its natural warmth. Excellent substitute for coffee which weakens the heart muscle. Peppermint tea is delicious and strengthens your heart muscle. Coffee hinders digestion, weakens the heart, can cause constipation, poisons the body. Peppermint tea cleanses and strengthens the entire body. 67

Recommended: Steep (1) heaping teaspoon of dry peppermint leaves in a cup of hot water for 10 minutes. Drink (1) cup after meals. *Note – this is not necessarily used for when you are having a gallstone attack. It will help to calm your stomach down, especially if you are feeling nauseous. It is most especially useful if you are having chronic stomach pain. Use (1 cup) after meals.

6) Cascara Sagrada (rhamnus purschiana) The bitter principles of cascara bark stimulate the secretions of the entire digestive system, including the liver, gallbladder, stomach and pancreas. It is one of the safest tonic-laxative herbs known and can be used on a daily basis without becoming habit forming. The tincture can be used 20-25 drops, (3) times daily. To prevent griping use anise, caraway or fennel seeds at the same time when the cascara is used as a laxative. It is one of the best remedies for chronic constipation. An excellent remedy for gallstones, increases secretion of bile, good for all liver complaints, especially enlarged liver. Among the Indians it was known as “sacred bark”. It was called sacred by them because of the excellent results they obtained from its use.

68

Recommended: Mix (4) teaspoons in a quart of boiling water, let steep for one hour, and drink 1-2 cups/day 1 hour before meals or on an empty stomach. It is well to drink a (1) cup before retiring. Extremely bitter.

Dr. Judy Says…. The bark is very bitter and disagreeable to most people. Take as capsules. Usually 2 capsules before bed is plenty. Definitely NOT habit forming as rumors have it. I have personally used this herb over the course of 25 years (mostly when I’m travelling) and found it to be extremely helpful.

69

7) Gentian [pronounced “jen shane”] (gentiana lutea) Purifies the blood and is good for all liver complaints. Most effective for jaundice. Will improve the appetite, strengthen the digestive organs, increase the circulation. Recommended: Because of its bitterness, it is better to combine gentian with other herbs. Combination suggestion: Use (1) cup of hot water, add ½ fresh lemon and a pinch of fresh grated ginger. Preparation & Dosage: Gentian is best consumed in the form of a decoction (boiling (1) teaspoonful of powdered root in a covered container of about 2 pints of water for about 20 minutes. Drink 1-2 tablespoons before meals. Tincture - 1:5 in 45% alcohol. Dose: Take 2-5 drops with water before meals. Extremely bitter.

70

8) Aloe (aloe socotrina) Aloe is one of the best herbs to clean out the colon. It’s best to use with a pinch of fresh ginger root to ease any cramping. Bitter. Recommendations: Take one part aloe vera gel and combine with 1 part ginger powder. Here’s a quick way to get the highest, best, most effective results with aloe: Take a fresh aloe leaf and fillet it like a fish. Lay the flat leaf on the counter, and using a very sharp knife, slice it lengthwise in half. Open up the two halves. With a spoon, scrape the gel off the leaf. Drop it into a blender and add ½ cup of bottled water. Whiz for 30 seconds and drink the frothy mixture. If you get nauseous, remember to drink peppermint tea after.

Dr. Judy Says…. Lily of the Desert is a popular brand of aloe vera juice and gel. They have been around for many years, however I have found their juice is not as strong as it used to be. I would advise making it fresh yourself. You are worth the extra effort! By far, the very best aloe is ‘cape aloe’. It is a variety of aloe that is so bitter you only need a pinch to see results! If you’re going for the gold, use a pinch of this or take (1) capsule before bed. Extremely bitter. You can order it from the resource I list below.

71

Having problems finding the herbs? Here’s some reliable resources: In the U.S. – use Whole Foods or other natural health foodstore. However, I’m finding that very few health food stores sell fresh herbs anymore. There’s a ton of junk out there, so be careful! I’ve tested most of them and have found them to be extremely weak, non-effective, and a waste of money.

You can order the freshest, highest quality herbs directly from me, Dr. Judy by calling me at 321-403-9447 or emailing me at [email protected]

Internationally – most herbalists know the ‘bitter’ herbs. Ask them for the most bitter herbs they have, and purchase it in bulk rather than tablets. Drinking it as a tea is always more effective than as taking it as capsules.

72

*WARNING - beware of multi-level networking companies selling liver/gallbladder formulas! I have yet to find one that I would use even on my dead dog. I challenge any of these companies to call me directly. Yes, I will challenge any MLM distributor to prove to me that their product meets my high qualifications for herbs that heal. I’m in the business of healing. That means the herbs I use have to be the highest quality I can find to give me the results I know is mine. In 33 years, not one company president has ever called me. Don’t settle for cheap! This is your health. Spend the few extra dollars to buy the herbs that are guaranteed to give you results. My advise is to stay clear of all MLM distributors selling “herbal” products!

The #1 Enzyme to Use for Your Liver and Gallbladder

What Are Enzymes? Enzymes are found throughout your body. They are energized protein molecules necessary for life. They turn the food you eat into energy and unlock this energy for your body to use. They are the “workers”. Just like construction workers build a house. Enzymes work to build your body from proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. If you didn’t have enzymes working for you, you would end up in a lumber pile!

Each ‘worker’ has a different job. Some enzymes like protease, helps to break down the proteins in meat into smaller more usable parts for your body. Amylase helps break down carbohydrates in breads, pasta, and potatoes (starchy foods) while lipase helps to break down fats such as those found in olives, avocadoes, and bananas. Why do You Need Enzymes? Just putting food in your mouth does not guarantee that it will be absorbed and used by your body. Undigested food can become toxic and cause tons of health problems. Without good digestion, your body will end up ‘starving’ and will retain fat to try to survive. That’s why so many people who are overweight don’t eat much and yet never seem to lose their weight. They are eating junk food that the body cannot break down.

74

If you eat raw foods at every meal, and if you don’t have any gas, bloating, burping, or heartburn, you probably don’t need enzymes. You don’t even need to read this book! But when you eat foods that are cooked at high heat (fried, barbequed, roasted, boiled) this destroys the valuable enzymes your body desperately needs. When your body can not break down the food to be used, you end up feeling tired, bloated, and eventually the weight comes on and stays on.

Break Down Those Fats It is a proven fact that the enzyme Lipase breaks down and digests fat. When you take this with your meals, it takes the stress off your gallbladder, liver, and pancreas. When taken between meals it will be stored in the liver and called on when it’s needed.

75

Fats are essential for health! Don’t stop eating all foods with fat. A zero fat diet is extremely harmful to your health. The best and healthiest sources of natural fats are from omega-3 and omega-6 which is found in flaxseed and cold-water fish like halibut, haddock, pike, snapper, perch. Definitely avoid margarine and hydrogenated oils (which is found in almost all foods in a box or bag such as chips, cookies, crackers).

Common Signs of Lipase (fat enzyme) Deficiency • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

high cholesterol high triglyceride levels over weight aching feet arthritis bladder problems acne gall bladder stress gallstones hay fever prostrate problems psoriasis urinary weakness constipation diarrhea heart problems

76

Dr. Judy says… ~ There are many enzymes in health food stores that carry lipase in them. However, I would suggest using a single enzyme of Lipase only, since this would be much more powerfully effective in breaking down fats. You can check the “Resources”, at the end of the book to see how to order them… ~ I also recommend using a multiple Digestive enzyme supplement to use BEFORE you eat – 2 capsules. This way the food is digesting easier for your stomach, and this puts less stress on your liver and gallbladder (check the “Resources” for more information on ordering)

~ Take the Lipase enzyme AFTER your meals – 2 capsules. ~ If you eat at fast food restaurants more than once a week… ~ Frequently have heartburn, gas, bloating, and burping… ~ Avoid certain foods because they bother you…. ~ Experience constipation or diarrhea… I would recommend taking an extra dose of high level enzymes that will help you digest all the foods you eat. Lifestyle changes takes time. Taking enzymes will make the changes smoother plus allow your body to digest the foods you are eating to relieve your symptoms.

Top 3 Juices to Use to Dissolve Stones “I can’t get up off the toilet, I am in SO MUCH PAIN! I’ve been like this for three days. Is there ANYTHING I can do without going to the hospital??”

True story… I got the call on a cold winter day in Wisconsin from a desperate mother. She had three small children, and her husband was out on his truck driving route. The nearest neighbor was at least five miles away. The roads were piled with snow. I hadn’t been working very long with Sherry on her health program. But she impressed me as the type of woman who wanted to make serious lifestyle changes. She asked a lot of questions and took notes on everything I said. Her biggest challenge was driving the 30 miles to the nearest grocery store to get all the recommendations I told her. But she was willing to make it work.

78

When she called me, I knew she was in serious trouble. Sherry had a very high pain tolerance. She never took any medications when she gave birth to her children, even though her labor was long and difficult. “What kind of fruit do you have in your house?” I asked her. “Only apples”, she replied. Perfect! I knew with apples alone we could get her out of pain. I had her take a long hot bath to get her relaxed. She then juiced enough apples to make a gallon of juice. I told her to drink nothing but apple juice for three days. Sherry was desperate. She couldn’t go to the hospital and leave her children behind. Feeling like this was her last hope, she did exactly as I instructed. On the third day she called with a totally different tone in her voice. She sounded so happy! “I took the hot bath, and that got me feeling better. But I still had sharp pain on my right side. I made the apple juice just like you told me and WOW! what a difference”. I immediately felt less pain. I also drank cranberry juice, which seemed to help too. I didn’t eat anything, just like you told me. I feel so much BETTER! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

79

Dr. Judy Says….

Juicing is a powerful tool to use when you are in deep pain from a gallbladder attack. Fruit juices are the cleansers of the body. They clean out the old, putrid, rotting garbage that has piled up from years of abuse. The whole purpose of juicing is to enable the body to assimilate all of the vital elements contained in the fruits and vegetables in the quickest possible time, without in any way burdening your digestive organs with the work of breaking down the fiber. When you are in the middle of a gallstone attack, your body does not want to take the time to digest fiber. It wants the vital nutrients now! In less than 15 minutes, your body will get the juice directly into your system. If it had to break down the fiber, it would take hours to digest.

80

Tips for Drinking Fresh Fruit Juices TIP #1 Whenever you juice fresh fruit juices, make sure the fruit is ripe. TIP #2 Make sure you don’t mix fruit juices with other foods, especially starchy foods. The best is to drink fresh fruit juices on an empty stomach when you first wake up. TIP #3 If the fruit juice is too sweet, you can get a little ‘sugar buzz’. This is when the natural sugar in the fruit overloads your system which can cause headaches, irritability, stomach bloating. Simply drink 2-3 large glasses of water immediately and the symptoms will disappear. The best is to dilute the fresh fruit juice with water. Half juice and half water is a good place to start anytime you start juicing fruit. TIP #4 Don’t mix fresh fruits with vegetables. They have different ph balances and will be difficult on your digestive system which could cause gas, belching, bloating. The best is to use only apples, diluted with water for your gallstone pain. Once your pain is gone, you can start experimenting with other fruits.

81

How Much Juice is Enough? As a general rule, I recommend about a pint of juice daily for maintenance or prevention. Drink 8 ounces of fresh apple juice in the morning. Drink 8 ounces of fresh vegetable juice in the mid-afternoon. Remember to dilute the juices if you experience any bloating, gas, or headache. TIP – To save time, make all your juice first thing in the morning. This saves you the hassle of cleaning up the juicer twice. Drink the fruit juice immediately, and store the vegetable juice in a tightly sealed glass jar in the refrigerator.

82

Apple Juice is the #1 Juice to Relieve Gallstone Pain Remember my story about Sherry? Drinking only apple juice helped her get out of pain immediately. Apple is therapeutic for your digestive system because of the high amount of pectin it contains. Pectin has the ability to take up excess water in the intestines, and make a soft bulk that acts like a mild, non-irritating stimulant. This stimulant helps your bowels to move naturally. Along with natural iron, calcium (24 mg), vitamin A (360 I.U.), B, and C (18 mg) The reason apple juice is effective in eliminating gallstones is the high malic acid content of apples. This acts as a type of natural solvent to weaken the sticky adhesions that holds together the solid globules. The olive oil stimulates the gallbladder and bile duct to contract and expel the stones.

How to Use Apple Juice Before a Flush Make about a gallon of fresh apple juice, preferably organic. Drink 1 glass of apple juice every 2 hours for 2-3 days before your flush. Eat only fresh fruit salads and vegetables (raw salads or lightly steamed). No breads, potatoes, pasta, meats. On the third day, pick your ‘Flush” (found in “Flush Out Your Gallstones” chapter) 83

WHEN YOU ARE HAVING AN ATTACK!!! Juice enough apples to make a gallon of juice. Drink 8 ounces every hour on the hour. Do not dilute this juice! You need the strength of the apple juice to soften your stones.

84

Beet Juice is the #2 Juice to Relieve Gallstone Pain Vegetable juices are the Builders and Regenerators of the body. After you flush your gallstones down the toilet, you want to concentrate on never having them come back! The best way to do this is to use vegetable juice to rebuild your body. They contain amino acids, minerals, natural salts, enzymes, and vitamins. All of which is needed by your body. There is no vitamin or mineral supplement that comes close to providing these nutrients like fresh vegetable juices. Before you turn your nose up at the thought of drinking vegetable juices, think about this: If this one tool could be used to keep you from ever having to end up in the emergency room waiting for gall bladder surgery, wouldn’t you do it? Of course you would. You would find a way to make it. You would find a way to get the taste to be easy to swallow. It’s all a matter of what you want. Do you want to lay helpless in the hospital bed? Or do you want to be in control of your health?

Beet Juice for Prevention This is one of the most valuable juices for helping to build up the red corpuscles of the blood and tone up the blood generally. 85

Women especially, have benefited by drinking at least one pint of a combination of carrot and beet juice daily. The proportion is: 3 ounces of beet juice, using roots and green tops 5 ounces of carrot juice DILUTE with 8 ounces of water.

How to Use Beet Juice When You’re Having A Gallstone Attack Beet juice is better used when you’ve had past discomfort in your upper right part of your abdomen. Or, if you get sharp pains after eating a ‘fatty meal’ (check the chapter on“Are Your Symptoms Real?”) Drink 3 ounces of fresh beet juice with 5 ounces of water at least once each day. During a gallstone attack, drink beet juice without the carrot juice. About 6 ounces every couple of hours. If you feel nauseous, just cut back on the juice or dilute it.

86

Lemon Juice is the #3 Juice to Relieve Gallstone Pain Lemon juice is a powerful fruit that can clean your body of impurities. It has a stimulating affect on your liver plus it liquefies the bile. It is rich in potassium (up to 48%) which will nourish your brain cells as well as natural calcium (29%), magnesium (4.4%), but us best known for its high vitamin C content. Tip – don’t leave a fresh lemon out once you’ve cut it. It loses its strength. Instead, use the whole lemon and drink the juice the same day. Using lemon when you first wake up in the morning in a glass of hot water gets the liver flushing out poisons immediately. Simply squeeze a fresh, ripe lemon into 8 ounces of hot water and drink. Tip - If you experience heart burn, dilute the lemon juice by squeezing only 1 teaspoon into 8 ounces of hot water.

87

How to Pick a RIPE Lemon To use food as your medicine, you must get the best. Fruits and vegetables that are ripe are richer in vitamins and minerals than produce that is not as ripe. The best lemons have: * skin that has an oily, fine texture * darker, deeper yellow color * heavy for their size * firm, but not rock hard * no signs of bruising

How to Use Lemon Juice for Your Gallstone Attack At the FIRST sign of discomfort (in the upper right side of your abdomen, underneath the ribs), drink a cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Get the ripest fresh lemon you can find, and squeeze the whole lemon into 8 ounces of hot water. Drink this every hour on the hour.

How to Find Quality Herbs and Supplements Thousands of people have come through my doors in both of my clinics with questions about supplements. Here are a few of the most common questions...

Where do you suggest people go to buy herbs and supplements? That's a very good question. I carry professional lines or "doctor-only" supplements that are only available to my patients. In general, I always tell people to go to a reliable health food store or reputable internet site where a professional health care practioner who will refund a product if it is unsatisfactory. Does price usually reflect the quality? From a price standpoint, do not buy the cheapest, because these are often the products that are examined in the studies comparing the amount stated on the label to the actual amount in the bottle, and have been found to contain little or nothing. That doesn't mean you have to buy the most expensive product, but it should fall somewhere in the middle range. As a general rule in the herb and supplement market, you get what you pay for.

96

Gelatin capsules, tablets, tincture and teas - can you explain the differences? The reason for these different forms is convenience and assimilation. I find that most people absorb alcohol extracts best. The amount of alcohol in the mixture depends on the herb. Some manufacturers will remove some of the alcohol in order to make the mixture more palatable. Capsules and pills are often used by people who do not like the taste of herbs. Capsules usually contain the herb or extract that has been dried and ground up. People with strong digestive systems can digest the capsule shell but older people or people with digestive disorders may have some difficulty. Tablets are even harder to absorb, because the materials are highly compressed and may have an added binding ingredient. Again, your ability to digest the coating and binders and release the herb will depend on the strength of your digestive system. Tea is a traditional form in many Eastern cultures. It is important to understand that when brewing or steeping tea, the container must be covered otherwise the valuable essential oils will evaporate away. Why are there different forms of some supplements? Is one preferable over another? Form is important. For example, I may recommend magnesium to a patient. In the United States, the most bio-available form is magnesium aspartate, and in Canada, it's magnesium citrate. Many patients get confused because they look at the label and while it does contain magnesium, it's magnesium stearate, which only acts as a binder and preservative. Stearate does not improve the absorption of magnesium, and might even interfere with the absorption of the real magnesium. This kind of information on the label is very important to understand.

97

Are organically-grown herbs worth the extra money? Some companies claim to be organic and grow their herbs without pesticides. However, the only state or province where the rules governing organics are very strict is California. If California organic rules are not met, you really do not know what you are getting. How about genetic engineering - is there any cause for concern? In the herb and supplement manufacturing industry, standards and specifications defining what genetically modified organism (GMO)-free means are not in place. Eventually, regulation will be introduced to North America. As it stands, however, a manufacturer may claim to be GMO-free and you must believe the manufacturer. Or not believe the manufacturer, as the case may be. Does the smell of an herbal tincture provide any clues to its quality? If you are familiar with raw herbs, you can smell and taste an herbal tincture and tell whether it is a quality product. Most consumers, though, are not able to judge quality this way. The alternative is to find a reliable manufacturer. Ask around -chances are a friend or co-worker has tried a good quality product that he or she has found to be useful. Again, use price as a general rule of thumb.
