How to remove gallstones - naturally, without surgery
This is a classic example of what I call kiasu medicine – doctors treating patients excessively just to be on the safe side, except that they call it preventive medicine, which sounds good.
Meanwhile, the patient is unconscious and he or she cannot do anything to stop it. The person akes up from surgery a few hours later to discover that he or she has permanently lost the gall bladder – a vital body organ. More than one person I know have had this happen to them.
A traditional remedy
This method to remove gallstones naturally
is probably a traditional European remedy. I learn it from a Taiwanese,
Dr Lai Chiu Nan, a chemistry doctorate holder and former cancer
researcher in one of America's top cancer research institutions, who now
teaches natural health.
Dr Lai Chiu Nan visited Singapore during
the early 1990s and gave a number of free lectures, in both Chinese and
English, attended by capacity crowds at the Singapore Indoor Statium,
which seats about 12,000 people. After attending her lectures, I wrote an article in The Good Life,
on how to remove gallstones naturally. I have since seen excerpts of
that article reproduced in all sorts of places, including pamphlets at
health stores, websites and blogs.
Possible 'dangers'
Before I pass on this method to remove
gallstones, I should point out that some doctors have warned of its
"dangers". They say that, if the gallstones are too big, they might end
up being stuck in the gall bladder ducts and this could be dangerous. In
theory, this might happen. So if you are afraid, don't do it.
When you embark on natural remedies,
whether to remove gallstones or for other purposes, you need to take
responsibility for your own health and I shall not be held liable for
any harm or danger that you might experience. At the same time, when you
embark on natural cures, it helps also to understand the reasons behind
some of the procedures.
In this case, part of the method to
remove gallstones naturally involves drinking plenty of apple juice for
about a week. It is believed that some substance in the apple juice,
probably malic acid, helps softens the gallstones so that the risks of
them being stuck in the gall bladder ducts are minimized. In any case, if you lack the confidence, don't do it.
Just be aware also that surgery and
other medical procedures to remove gallstones UN-naturally also come
with their own set of risks. You decide which risks you wish to take.
No guarantees
I should also point out that this method to remove gallstones naturally MAY NOT WORK for everyone. When my friends and I tried it, one (or maybe two) of them did not pass out anything. After I put this information out on the Internet, I received a few more emails from readers telling me that "nothing happened".
At the same time, there were also people who passed out stones but further ultrasound scans of the gall bladder still showed some stones inside. Why? I don't know and am rying to find out. Some skeptics say this shows the method is fake. Could be. But I don't think so because some people do feel better after going through it.
Possible instant diarrhea
Another possible side effect of this natural way to remove gallstones is "instant diarrhea" at the last step, on Day 6. See below. I
write this from personal experience. Luckily, I was at home and the
toilet was nearby. But I have not heard of anyone else with a similar
experience. But just in case... do this gallstone removal remedy at
home, and do the last step nearby a toilet.
Why remove gallstones?
Gallstones may not be everyone's concern. But they should be because we all have them. Moreover, gallstones may lead to cancer."Cancer is never the first illness", Dr Lai Chiu Nan points out. "Usually, there are a lot of other problems leading to cancer. In my research in China, I came across some material which say that people with cancer usually have gallstones. We all have gallstones. It's a matter of big or small, many or few.
“One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling of bloatedness after a heavy meal. You feel like you can't digest the food. If it gets more serious, you feel pain in the liver area."
So if you think you have gallstones, Lai Chiu Nan offers the following method to remove them naturally. The treatment is also good for those with a weak liver, because the liver and gallbladder are closely linked.
HOW TO REMOVE GALLSTONES NATURALLY
- For
the first five days, drink at least four glasses of apple juice every
day. Freshly squeezed or packaged apple juice are both okay. Or eat four
or five apples, whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens the
gallstones. During the five days, eat normally.
- On the sixth day, take no dinner.
(But take breakfast and lunch as usual and ok to drink water or other
light fluids at night, but not, for example, a hearty soup.)
- At 6 pm, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water.
- At 8 pm, repeat the same. Epsom salt or magnesium sulphate opens the gallbladder ducts.
- At 10 pm, take half cup olive oil
(or sesame oil) with half cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and drink
it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease their passage. See above about possible instant diarrhea during this final step to remove gallstones naturally.
- After this, sleep or at least lie down and rest. Do not engage in physical activity.
"Usually they float", Dr Lai Chiu Nan
notes. "You might want to count them. I have had people who passes 40,
50 or up to 100 stones. Very many". Even if
you don't have any symptoms of gallstones, you still might have some.
It's always good to give your gall bladder clean up now and then.
