The Lancet recently reported the use of one quart of pure apple juice for one week. After one full week of the apple juice one cup of olive oil was used just before going to bed. The person was instructed to lay on their left side during the night. A high dose of magnesium can be used to facilitate the removal of the stones.

This is an alternative to a regimen I had published earlier. Since nearly one million gallbladders are removed every year in this country it would seem reasonable to try this low cost simple alternative.

If someone has already had their gallbladder removed it is important that they be placed on a bile acid supplement with every meal they take. It is very difficult to wash greasy dishes without soap. In a similar fashion it is enormously challenging for a body to absorb fat properly without a gallbladder. The bile salts tend to compensate for this.

Reader Barry Gordon's wife is allergic to apples so she took a differnt path from Edgar Casey's material and used castor oil packs on the gall bladder for 10 days which worked very well.
