Many stones will be seen in the toilet upon the first bowel movement after a liver cleanse. It may take several cleanses over a period of months to clear all of them out from the liver.

Following a liver cleanse, it is useful to have several coffee enemas to pull further toxins that are stored in the liver. Use organic coffee beans, and about a quart of coffee each time, retained for ten minutes.

Replace intestinal bacteria by taking acidophilus and soil-based organisms (SBO) for a week after a liver cleanse.

Best of Health!

10 Ways to Detoxify Your Body

Feeling sluggish or out of sync? Having skin problems, aches and pains, or digestive problems? Straying from your healthier habits lately? It might be time for a detox.

Practiced for centuries by many cultures around the world — including ayurvedic and Chinese medicine systems — detoxification is about resting, cleaning and nourishing the body from the inside out. By removing and eliminating toxins, then feeding your body with healthy nutrients, detoxifying can help protect you from disease and renew your ability to maintain optimum health.

"The body has its own natural healing system," says Peter Bennett, N.D., medical director of Helios Clinic in Victoria, B.C., and co-author with Stephen Barrie, N.D. and Sara Faye, of 7-Day Detox Miracle (Prima Health). "Detoxification enhances this system," he explains.

How Does Detoxification Work?
Basically, detoxification means cleaning the blood. It does this mainly by removing impurities from the blood in the liver, where toxins are processed for elimination. The body also eliminates toxins through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymph and skin. However, when this system is compromised, impurities aren't properly filtered and every cell in the body is adversely affected.

The Detox Diet

Learn About the Detox Diet

Detox, short for detoxification, is the removal of potentially toxic substances from the body. Although detox is primarily thought of as a treatment for alcohol or drug dependence, the term is also used to refer to diets, herbs, and other methods of removing environmental and dietary toxins from the body for general health.

This is a sample two-week detox diet plan to support detoxification by increasing elimination from the body, cleansing the colon, enhancing circulation to clear toxic substances, eliminating foods from the diet that require detoxification or are allergenic, and providing nutrients to support and protect the liver, the main organ involved in detoxification.

Step 1: The detox screening quizAccordint to alternative practitioners, a detox screening quiz can help you become more familiar with possible symptoms of toxicity.

Many holistic practitioners believe that people with adrenal fatigue, brought on by prolonged stress, should not try the detox diet until that condition is addressed.

Step 2: Learn the basics about detox diets

This article, Detox Basics, has necessary information about detox diets, including:
What is the detox diet?

Step 4: How a detox diet can be customized Ayurveda is the traditional medicine of India. Knowing your Ayurvedic "type" can help you learn what foods, according to Ayurveda, support an individual's health and what foods might detract from health. Try this simple quiz.

Step 5: Proper eliminationElimination of stools and urine is the body's primary method of getting rid of toxic substances. Especially important during a detox diet, regular bowel movements decrease the likelihood that toxins will be reabsorbed into the body.

Step 6: Sample detox diet menu Learn about a typical day's meals on a detox diet with this sample menu.

Step 7: Essential nutrients for detox supportThe liver requires certain nutrients in order to produce the enzymes and antioxidants needed for detoxification.

Step 8: The hypochlorhydria screening quizSome alternative practitioners believe that hypochlorhydria, also known as low stomach acid, may be involved in indigestion, food sensitivities, nutritional deficiency, bacterial overgrowth, yeast infections, weak hair, skin, and nails, and a host of other conditions. By the time people reach their 50's, many nutritionally-oriented doctors believe that many of their clients have hypochlorhydria. Step 9: What people drink on a detox diet

The Liver Flush

One of the more simple and popular cleansing techniques is known as the Liver Flush.

It is used for removing excess fatty acids and other toxic substances from the liver. A healthy liver can play a crucial role in contributing to the healing of the immune system as it is an important part of digestion and plays the main role in processing toxic and allergy-causing substances in the bloodstream.

The Liver Flush can be done at any time, but is commonly done in the Spring and Autumn.

i. Simple Liver Cleanse

The following herbal products can be used to assist in cleansing and rebuilding the liver. I use the formulas for three to four weeks.
- Hepato-Pure You can purchase this formula (made by Planetary Herbal Formulas) from your local natural food store or call Planetary Herbal Formulas 800-606-6226 for the nearest distributor. It contains Bupleurum (a chinese herb reknowned for liver cleansing), Wild Yam Root, Oregon Grape Root, Lycii Berry, Cyperus, Dandelion Root Extract, Dong Quai, Peony Alba, Ginger Root, Fennel Seed, Green Citrus Peel, Dandelion Root, Milk Thistle Seed Extract (83% Silymarin), Dong Quai Extract.

Take approximately 150mg (3 tablets) / 3 times per day or 20 drops of tincture / 3 times per day. This can be done for a couple of weeks after performing a Liver Flush (see below) or taking a liver cleansing herbal formula for a few weeks. You can find out more about Milk Thistle by reading "Milk Thistle

-- The Liver Herb" by Christopher Hobbs, Botanica Press, c1992,

ii. Castor oil compress

A castor oil compress is usually performed every other day during the Liver Flush regimen. It is helpful in encouraging the liver to dump excess fats. Soak a piece of wool or flannel (or a baby's cotton diaper) in castor oil. Ring out the cloth so that it doesn't drip. Place over the liver area (on the right side, just under the ribcage). place a hot water bottle (purchase from a drug store), not an electric heating pad over the cloth. Then place a towel over the hot water bottle. Leave on for 1.5 hours, replacing the water when necessary so that the area is kept hot (but not too hot to stand). After removing the compress, spend 5 to 10 minutes rubbing small amounts of virgin olive oil into the liver area.

iii. Coffee Enema

A coffee enema is usually used as a *part* of a cleansing program in order to encourage the liver to dump large amounts of toxins. You may wish to try this technique *once or twice* when you are performing the Liver Flush, Gallbladder Flush or GI Tract cleanse. Do not use this technique obsessively, just on occassion when performing a cleanse. You can get a coffee enema instruction sheet for free from Arise & Shine.

iv. Liver Flush

The following Liver Flush instructions are based upon Christopher Hobbs' suggestions in his book, "Foundations of Health: The Liver and Digestive Herbal." For 10 days you do the following:

1. In the morning after a little exercise (e.g., short walk, yoga, breathing exercises, etc.), drink the liver flush mixture (see below).

2. After drinking the liver flush mixture, drink two cups of herbal tea designed to cleanse the liver. Alternatively, take one of the liver cleansing formulas listed above as directed.

3. Follow a healthy, natural foods diet during the rest of the day. Also, remembering to breath deeping, using the diaphram, can be helpful. A light abdominal massage once per day can also be helpful.

4. Take (or continue taking) one of the liver cleansing formulas listed above for two to three more weeks.

5. Take Milk Thistle and Red Beet Crystals (see above) for a few weeks after finishing the liver cleanse. This will help the process of rebuilding the liver. 6. Optional and helpful - Perform the Castor oil compress every other day. - Perform one coffee enema during the cleanse. - Perform abdominal massage every other day. Liver flush mixture

Mix freshly sqeezed citrus juices together (e.g., orange, grapefruit). Mix in as much freshly sqeezed lemon (or lime) as possible. The more sour the taste, the better the cleanse. Add 1-2 cloves of fresh-sqeezed garlic. Add a small amount of ginger root juice (grate the ginger and sqeeze the resultant fibers to obtain ginger juice). Finally, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil (use the expensive stuff from a natural foods stores). Shake or blend and drink. Cleansing herbal tea

Example 1 - "Puri-Tea" from Brigitte Mars (herbalist in Colorado) Peppermint, red clover, fennel, licorice, cleavers, dandelion, Oregon grape root, burdock root, butternut bark, chickweed, parsley root, nettles. You should be able to find something similar at your local natural foods store.

Example 2 - Fennel Seed (1 part), Fenugreek (1 part), Flax Seed (1 part), Licorice Root (1/4 part), Burdock (1/4 part), Peppermint (1 part). Simmer all herbs except the peppermint for 20 minutes. Add 1 part peppermint and let the tea steep for 10 minutes. Use approximately 1 ounce (wt.) of total dried tea per pint of water. See the following books for more information on healing the liver:

i. Foundations of Health: The Liver and Digestive Herbal by Christopher Hobbs Botanica Press, c1992

ii. Natural Liver Therapy by Christopher Hobbs Botanica Press, c1993 (3rd revision) This book contains alot of good information on restoring the health of the liver as well as many natural remedies.

Rebuilding & Strengthening

1. Milk Thistle Seeds (see above)

2. Herbal Formula such as Hepato-Pure from Planetary Herbal Formulas (see above).

3. Building a healthy population of beneficial bacteria in the intestines is very helpful for preventing the building of toxins which can overwork the liver. Regularly eating fermented foods (if tolerable) or taking a probiotic suppliment can be very helpful in doing this. See the "Probiotics" section of the "Food & Nutrition" chapter for more information.

4. Abdominal Massage once per day.

5. Deep breathing exercises and yogic breathing exercises (see "Yoga" chapter and "Emotional Healing" chapter for Hendricks Breathing Exercises).

6. Healthy diet without dairy.

7. See "Natural Liver Therapy" by Christopher Hobbs for additional tips.

Liver cleansing

Liver cleansing
Did you clean your liver already once? No. Why not? To understand why a liver cleaning is so important, should we the function and the structure of the liver once more exactly look at itself.

The tasks of the liver
The liver
produced over 95% of the blood proteins.
steers the blood sugar content by up and dismantling of glucose (sugar).
regulates the fat metabolism (e.g. Cholesterol)
iron stores
produces the Galle
detoxify the body-own and body-strange material

The above list shows only one excerpt of the most important functions. Altogether the liver is anyhow the most important metabolic organ, i.e. different materials are diminished so over, or that the body can use them. Therefore the liver keeps the blood from the intestine, filled with nutrients, direct. However not only good, but also harmful materials (environmental poisons, preservatives, etc.) with the nutrient-rich blood come into the liver.

The good converted materials are fed over the Vein into the body. The harmful materials are delivered directly over the Gallbladder juice into the intestine, where they are separated with the chair course from the body. The liver is thus also a filter for the nutrient-rich blood. In addition the body in addition, own must “e.g. used” materials like hormones loose will and this happen similarly over the Gallbladder juice of the liver.

The Gallbladder juice serves for however now not only to the decontamination, but also fat digesting in the intestine. The Galle provides for cutting up the fats in our food, so that they can be taken up at all only. The Galle is necessary thus also for the absorption of the fat-soluble Vitamins A, D, E and K.

This Gallbladder juice is formed for large liver small cloths (functional units of the liver) into the 1-2mm. From finest courses, which unite to ever larger, develops a kind tree, whose branches between these liver small cloths begin and become a trunk, which lies outside of the liver and to which Gallbladder way corresponds.

Because of this large Gallbladder way then the Gallbladder is as memory organ. It has the task to collect and deliver if necessary to the intestine the Gallbladder juice, so that we can digest also larger quantities of grease.During the cleaning it concerns to the liver the cleaning of these entire tree-like Gallbladder ways described here!Approx. 25% of all humans over 60 years have visible Gallstones in the Gallbladder or the large Gallbladder way in the ultrasonic.

Here however only the large stones, the so-called Galle gries become visible remain undiscovered.With healthy humans daily approx. 1 liter of Galle flows off by the Gallbladder ways from the liver. The today's civilization human being however has already so clogged Gallbladder ways that often only less than half can flow off. Because already in recent years the liver must eliminate so many Toxins over the Galle that the composition of the Gallbladder juice changes in such a way that Galle gris and Gallstones form.

Particularly the so fine Galle gries already clogs the smallest ways in the liver and obstructs so the discharge. One can compare this with a hose, in which pebbles lie. Since this Galle gries extracts itself however from the modern diagnostics with ultrasonic and Roentgen, he remains also often unconsidered. The fact that however so a handicap in the discharge of the Gallbladder juice has health consequences is clear with the tasks specified above probably everyone. Therefore each humans should pay attention to keep its Gallbladder ways free.

The liver cleaning specified here offers a simple and safe possibility of making the Gallbladder ways free.Note: If you suffered already from Gallstones or to know that large Gallstones is in the courses, it should accomplish you this cleaning only under professional supervision. Because these stones will separate and could lead then to the complete catch. Please you hold always only for consultation with your physician.

Dr. Beyerle, who is certified by the German Medical Ozone Society, studied the rectal insufflation method of delivering ozone therapy in Germany

Dr. Beyerle, who is certified by the German Medical Ozone Society, studied the rectal insufflation method of delivering ozone therapy in Germany with one of the pioneers in the field, Dr. Rilling Beyerle explains that "the blood vessels in the colon, small intestine, and bladder are the mesenteric veins, which deposit into the portal vein and go straight to the liver.

The simple introduction of the catheter into the colon, at a low flow rate to increase concentration, gets ozone into the systemic venous system. Dr. Rilling says that if nothing else is done but rectal insufflation, which does not really require a physician at all, you see dramatic results."3Positive therapeutic effects on diseases of the rectum and colon have been noted with this method since 1936. Beyerle has seen people recover from irritable bowel syndrome, colitis, and Crohn's disease, almost immediately.

"There may be some initial discomfort, some bloating and gas on occasion, but as far as irritations, we have yet to see any contraindications. If you've got colitis or irritable bowel syndrome, when ozone is administered properly, there are no negative side effects, only positive ones. It renews the mucous lining and gets to the bacterial infestation that has infiltrated the tissues of the colon."3

Ozone gas can also be directly injected into veins or muscles, a process known as intraarticular or intravenous application. This method, however, can be dangerous, and is not recommended.

Drinking ozonated water is another method that has been used. Ozonated water is made by bubbling 16 to 20 mcg/ml ozone through a glass of chilled distilled water (33 to 40°F) for two minutes. The water is then drunk immediately.10 A further method consists of introducing ozone to the skin in a sauna bag after a hot shower and a brisk rubdown.8

What is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Colon hydrotherapy is a safe, effective method of removing waste from the large intestine. By introducing filtered and temperature-regulated water into the colon, waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through normal peristalsis. Colon hydrotherapy is best used in combination with an adequate nutrient and fluid intake as well as exercise. The colon has been referred to as "the sewer system of the body." It is the place where we store the waste material that most of us would rather not think about and most of us don't until our physical, mental, or spiritual health becomes compromised.

Colon hydrotherapy improves the function of all organs of the body resulting in more energy and vitality. Normally, our organs are able to dump toxins into the bowel instead of holding them; however, when the colon is congested, the other elimination channels (liver, kidney, skin, lungs, etc.) must retain a larger part of the wastes.

Colon irrigation not only removes impaction, parasites, intestinal flatus (gas) and cellular debris, but it cleanses and rejuvenates that portion of the immune system that resides in the intestinal tract. Colon irrigation provides external drainage from the rectum and internal drainage via the lymphatic system. The body is then able to release accumulated toxins and assimilate nutrition. Regeneration is possible because assimilation and elimination are brought back into balance, and the gentle movement of water exercises the peristaltic muscles resulting in increased colon efficiency.

Master Cleanse Day 14

• Day 14

Symptoms: I woke up with the usual sore throat that went away after about an hour. Then I started getting a headache, nausea and leg cramps. I can tell I'm getting further along because the leg cramps are supposed to be a die-off symptom of long-term fasting/detoxing. I was feeling weak and just tried to relax most of the day, but still got done what needed to be done. My tongue is still coated white, but the very outsides are nice & pink.Improvements: I didn't have any bad breath today. I've had bad breath & body odor problems for quite some time and had improved those a lot before the MC, but they got worse during the cleanse. Today was the first day I didn't have that problem. I'm itching less...almost not at all, but my left hip suddenly felt inflamed and I scratched it hard for about 30 seconds straight until I felt that my fingertips were wet and brought my hand up to see them covered in blood...That's just what is left of my psoriasis, but the bleeding myself with scratching has been a common problem for me over the past couple years. My skin is getting a little bit better on my face.

Improvements happen gradually. It's less red and some of the acne is going away. Today I got a lot less mucous than on all the previous days. That means my lymph’s are finally becoming clean. Thank goodness. I also noticed my sense of smell is amazing. I used the tap at work that serves hot water, since I was going to make some mint tea and I could smell this musky smell from the hot steam coming up to my face. I've used that water plenty of times and could never smell it. I can even smell cold food and raw food! I cannot believe how amazing my sense of smell is. As for the body odor, I can smell something bad in my skin. I smell it best when I sniff the palms of my hands since they sweat more. But since I've done so many liver flushes, colonics and bowel cleanses and don't have the impaction others are talking about in the master cleanse blog, I figured this cleanse is all I should need to get clean and detoxified. I hope. I do plan to do another liver flush a couple weeks after I'm back to eating and I will probably do another master cleanse. I think three to four short cleanses a year after this long one will be sufficient to assist my health. Along with 3-4 liver flushes a year and ongoing colonics.

series of liver flushes for the next two months

I will be doing a series of liver flushes for the next two months, then I'm going to go back on another master cleanse in January. After that I'll do more liver flushes go get out whatever stones build up from the next master cleanse. I did a liver flush less than a week after my master cleanse ended and I got out 500 stones. I was going to the bathroom so much I could barely get off the toilet and I would fill the top of the water with stones! It was amazing.

I got a lot of fresh green ones to start with. I'm sure the master cleanse created those stones, but later on I started getting some gray ones. Some of the green ones had dark brown spots, like freckled stones.

After the flush, the food cravings started to go away and my body started to feel better than ever. Now I just have to stay away from foods my digestive system doesn't agree with and repeat this wonderful process as planned! Give it a try. You'll thank yourself for it!

Liver Flush Tricks, Tips and Advice

As far as drinking the olive oil, dont' try to gulp the stuff down just because you want to lay down & get into position faster.

You can make your stomach spin like that and you might get less stones.

First of all, I do the Hulda Clark liver flush as many people do. It's listed in Curezone and is a wonderful flush. I have done 18 of them to date.

Liver Flush Tricks, Tips and Advice - I

Take malic acid. That is the biggest and most simple advice I can give you. Buy one of those bottles that have 800mg's per pill and a week before your first flush, start taking them. Lets face it: Liver flushes aren't fun. They occupy your whole weekend and why get 10 stones out when you can get 100 out; or why get 100 out when you can get 500 out and end up neededing to do fewer flushes in the end? I took a couple pills after every meal and it made all the difference. When I first started cleansing, I didn't use it. Then when I had gotten to my 6th flush, I was only getting 150 pea & bb bullet sized stones. Then I took Malic Acid and I got out hundreds of stones, many of them were large marble sized stones. During one flush, I stopped again & got almost nothing. Then when I started again with the malic acid, I got out an egg sized stone. I couldn't believe it.

As far as drinking the olive oil, dont' try to gulp the stuff down just because you want to lay down & get into position faster. You can make your stomach spin like that and you might get less stones because your stomach won't let the oil pass down into the intestines if it gets too upset. Take sips unless the taste doesn't bother you. The taste is too powerful for me to do that. I keep my grapefruit or lemon in separate glasses in each hand and sip one and then the other until it's gone or until my body tells me it can't handle any more.

Liver Flush Tricks, Tips and Advice II

Also, if you do feel like purging the day after....do so. You will feel so much better afterwards because at that point, you've already got all the stones you're going to get all you have now is have oil left in your tummy, which will just sit there. I tried drinking a glass of water the day after and the oil just rose to the top and my stomach then let the water through to my intestines and then the oil went right back to the bottom of my belly.

Flush Position--I always lay on my back. They say to do it for 20 minutes, but I layed down and watched a couple movies straight because I couldn't get to sleep & since I had so many stones, I could feel them coming out even 2-3 hours later. I have found it better to stay in that position as long as I can stand it. Then I roll over to my right side and try to sleep with my knees bent to help release any that might be left.

• General Cleansing Forum

Liver Flush Tricks, Tips and Advice III

Water--Please drink lots of water the day of your flush. Epson salts are really dehydrating. When I drank lots of water the day of the flush, there wasn't that kind of dehydration.

Also Milk Thistle Seed extract is a great herb to take. G.A.I.A. is what I've taken. It comes in liquid caps and they will help your liver heal faster after the flush.
Don't use it up to the day before a flush because it might prevent you from getting the maximum amount of stones possible.

• General Cleansing Forum

Liver Flush Tricks, Tips and Advice IV

Every flush you do will make you healthier, but it is not always noticeable on the first flush. From my experience and what I've heard from others, it's usually around the third flush that you will really notice a difference. Then every 3-4 flushes will be a new turning point in your health....Once you've gotten into the grove of liver flushing, colonics, eating right, etc, you will feel a little better each day.

Depending on how severe your health issues are is how long that will take. If you are really unhealthy as I was and do the right things, it will probably take a little more than a year. If you don't have a serious dis-ease, you'll get better even faster. Don't get discouraged by thinking, "Oh no, only a little bit better each day?" That "little bit better" will make you so happy.

Bio-Chelat: Chelation Clinical Trial - German Study

Clinical Investigation of Bio-Chelat(TM)
This investigation was done according to the recommendation of 83/571 EWG, Part IV, dated 11/28/1983 (EG#L332).

Planning, methodology, completion, evaluation and documentation went according to the appropriate principles for clinical drug testing, dated 12/09/1987 (Banz. Page 16-617).
Clinic-Pharmacological Data

1. Pharmacological Dynamics
For this clinical evaluation, a standard dose of 3x20 drops was used and well tolerated by most patients. We recommend taking the chelation solution before meals. With associated dryness of the mouth, follow the solution with water. We also recommended decreasing the dosage to 3x15 or a minimum of 3x10 or 2x15 drops per day when a decrease of saliva was noted. Dryness of the mouth was rarely experienced with the reduced dose and whenever it was an issue, most symptoms disappeared 3-4 weeks after taking the Bio-Chelat(TM).

There was an obvious connection between the release of mercury ions from amalgam fillings using Bio-Chelat(TM) Chelation therapy, and the subsequent depressive effect of this release on the salivary glands. It turns out that the amount of liquid taken by the participant is of particular importance. Participants were instructed to drink a minimum of 2 liters of water per day to ensure adequate mercury excretion by the kidneys. However, not all participants followed the recommendation. Those participants, who drank less increasingly complained of mouth dryness.

The time-relationship-effect concludes that Bio-Chelat(TM) is fast absorbed and its' maximum effect occurs during the first 1-3 hours when the most excretion takes place. Because of this, it is necessary and indicated to take the solution 3 times per day. The increased digestibility after a few weeks concludes that either a tolerance occurs or that the mercury elimination is sufficiently advanced.

To see the chelation effect on the body, blood panels must be assessed (especially calcium, magnesium, zinc as well as heavy metals), to check for toxic consequences within the kidneys and to determine mercury excretion. Also, liver panels to determine metabolic performance and evaluate possible hepatotoxic action of Bio-Chelat(TM). According to the published data, there were no negative responses when observing blood count; life essential mineral concentration also did not change. Only zinc was significantly decreased, and therefore, zinc supplementation should be considered whenever necessary. Thrombocyte count also decreased slightly, while leucocytes increased minimally. On the other hand, mercury levels decreased, as well as other heavy metal ions (lead, cadmium), which is seen as a positive finding.

Specific kidney parameters showed no negative consequences to the kidneys. In regards to the liver panel, we recognized a small insignificant increase of gamma-GT-values. The observed changes in LDH and GOT are not significant. This is most likely because of the increased demand placed on this organ with the excretion of toxic metal ions.

2. Pharmacokinetics and Bio-availability

A pharmacological determination of absorption, distribution, change, and excretion of Bio-Chelat(TM) or its by-products did not occur. This is unusual with homeopathic diluted agents. The optimum dose is a compromise between desired effect on one hand and side effects on the other. Here it was a minimal dose of 3x10 drops and an optimal dose of 3x20 drops. The maximal dose should not be strived for.

3. Effect with continued use
The therapeutic goal of mercury elimination can39;t be achieved in a short time because mercury is either deposited or bound to various organs. A fast mobilization using chelation therapy can bring considerable side effects.

Because of this it is normal and appropriate to take Bio-Chelat(TM) over at least a 3-month time span. Longer time periods are only indicated when, for example, there are mercury extractions, removal of amalgam fillings or new fillings are being placed.

We know that Bio-Chelat(TM) is an excellent solution as long as the mercury concentration in the serum, urine or sputum continues to be high, and there are occasionally new chemical exposures that would make it useful to continue taking the solution daily.

4. Side effects
None are known. In this study, no patient gave such an indication, although it should be mentioned that all participants had a naturopathic medical orientation and do not take pharmaceuticals.

Clinical Therapeutic Data
The results of this study was based on 74 participants and was documented statistically, including side effects. Each patient was questioned about side effects of the chelation therapy during the exit interview. Questions centered on how the solution was taken, as well as how they felt during the trial and how they tolerated the solution. This information is given whenever known.

· All users were clients from the HG Homeopathic Clinic, which is the practices of Drs. Pieper/Bender, Hautzel, Rebien and Schneider, as well as from the dental practices of Drs. Obermayer and Obreschko.

· Testing Method: More than 60 participants were examined, all having mercury-amalgam-fillings; their mercury and heavy metal load was checked and the effects of the Bio-Chelat(TM) on this heavy metal burden.

· Hypothesis: Will Bio-Chelat(TM) reduce this load significantly after taking it for 3 months? For verification and documentation, blood, urine, and sputum examination was used, as demonstrated on the enclosed table. Absorption spectrometry, done at the Diagnostic Center for Mineral Analysis and Spectroscopy (Lowensteinst. 9, Michelrieth), was the specific method used to measure these metals within the serum.

· The company Hormonology produced Bio-Chelat(TM) (a liquid solution enriched with minerals in addition to 100 ml of oxygen). The standard dose recommended by the manufacturing company was 3 x 20 drops/day. It was recommended to take a teaspoon of Bio-Chelat(TM) before meals, followed with water. The dose was modified when necessary for the participant.
· The test was done over a 3-month period. Because it took 3 months to find appropriate test participants, the complete study lasted from January 1, 1995 until July 31, 1995.

· No additional therapies were done or recommended.
· The desired effect was a decrease of the serum mercury, lead, cadmium, and palladium concentrations upon completion of the program.
· Undesirable effects were any associated dryness of the mouth, stomach problems and occasional nausea. These were present in a few cases and Bio-Chelat(TM) was discontinued. Those problems generally decreased after 3-4 weeks. Nevertheless, in a few cases an adjustment of the dosage was necessary. Side effects were generally only noted for 1-2 hours and did not cause any further problems.
· The therapeutic value of the Bio-Chelat(TM) in the context of other chelators that are currently on the market is seen as follows:
Chelators work relatively fast, but they are also very strong with a relative high washout of important trace elements and a high degree of specific side effects.

Bio-Chelat(TM) works much gentler than with most common chelation therapies.

Although during the treatment a significant decrease of the body's heavy metal ion load was seen, this is accomplished without greatly disturbing the mineral and trace element relationships. The reduction of zinc should be looked at with caution and may easily be corrected throughout the treatment.

A small increase in the liver panel is, as mentioned earlier, partly due to the increased load on the liver while eliminating heavy metal ions. In a few isolated cases, it was observed that those values completely approached normal levels within a few days or weeks, particularly when liver supportive and excreting therapies were simultaneously administered. All liver panel values were normal upon completion of the Bio-Chelat(TM) study.

Should a patient have liver damage, and have for example an increased transaminase value, Bio-Chelat(TM) should be given very carefully while evaluating the risks.

Bio-Chelat(TM) is not suitable for acute mercury poisoning or very high new toxic ion loads.Bio-Chelat(TM) has its greatest value as a middle and long-term therapy for sub-acute or chronic mercury toxicity. For this it is the optimal product.

The side effects of Bio-Chelat(TM) are minimal when compared to the overall effect. Those side effects can be totally eliminated through a modification of intake and dose. No associated risks are connected with the use of Bio-Chelat(TM). After discontinuance of the Bio-Chelat(TM) any effects disappear within hours.

Because of this, Bio-Chelat(TM) is an excellent chelation therapy that will fill today's market niche, in view of the numerous patients carrying a chronic toxic mercury and heavy metal ion load. It is a necessary solution for that particular market.

"Cleansing the liver of gallstones dramatically improves digestion, which is the basis of your whole health. You can expect your allergies to disappear, too, more with each cleanse you do! Incredibly, it also eliminates shoulder, upper arm, and upper back pain. You have more energy and increased sense of well being.

It is the job of the liver to make bile, 1 to 1.5 quarts in a day! The liver is full of tubes (biliary tubing) that deliver the bile to one large tube (the common bile duct). The gallbladder is attached to the common bile duct and acts as a storage reservoir. Eating fat or protein triggers the gallbladder to squeeze itself empty after about twenty minutes, and the stored bile finishes its trip down the common bile duct to the intestine.
For many persons, including children, the biliary tubing is choked with gallstones. Some develop allergies or hives but some have no symptoms. When the gallbladder is scanned or X-rayed nothing is seen. Typically, they are not in the gallbladder. Not only that, most are too small and not calcified, a prerequisite for visibility on an X-ray. There are over half a dozen varieties of gallstones, most of which have cholesterol crystals in them. They can be black, red, white, green or tan colored. The green ones get their color from being coated with bile. Notice in the picture (pg. 545) how many have imbedded unidentified objects. Are they fluke remains? Notice how man are shaped like corks with longitudinal grooves below the tops. We can visualize the blocked bile ducts from such shapes. Other stones are composites- made of many smaller ones- showing that they regrouped in the bile ducts some time after the last cleanse.
At the very center of each stone is found a clump of bacteria, according to scientists, suggesting a dead bit of parasite might have started the stone forming.
As the stones grow and become more numerous the back pressure on the liver causes it to make less bile. Imagine the situation if your garden hose had marbles in it. Much less water would flow, which in turn would decrease the ability of the hose to squirt out the marbles. With gallstones, much less cholesterol leaves the body, and cholesterol levels rise.
Gallstones, being porous, can pick up all the bacteria, cysts, viruses and parasites that are passing through the liver. In this way "nests" of infection are formed, forever supplying the body with fresh bacteria. No stomach infection such as ulcers or intestinal bloating can be cured permanently without removing these gallstones from the liver.
Preparation
You can't clean a liver with living parasites in it. You won't get out many stones, and will feel quite sick. Zap daily the week before, or get through the first three weeks of the parasite killing program before attempting a liver cleanse. If you are on a parasite maintenance program, do a high dose program the week before.
Completing the kidney cleanse before cleansing the liver is also recommended. You want your kidneys, bladder and urinary tract in top working condition so they can efficiently remove any undesirable substances incidentally absorbed from the intestine as the bile is being excreted. Do any dental work first, if possible. Your mouth should be metal free and bacteria free (cavitations are cleaned). A toxic mouth can put a heavy load on the liver, burdening it immediately after cleansing. Eliminate that problem first for best results.
