Why exactly is apple juice suggested to help treat/prevent gallbladder stones?
I was interested in this question about 3-4 months ago. Friend of mine thought that he has gallbladder stones so we spent couple of days looking up info about possible “flush” from both medical books available to us and internet (our best buddy)… Anyway… there was an article of how you must drink apple juice for three days. Apparently it helps your bladder to relax before the real thing, the flush… so it’s just a softener before the flush… oil and epson salt does the real thing… My friend did tried that and something did come out… but it wasn’t really like the real thing… it wasn’t what we read it would be… but… good thing… he never felt that pain like he did before we tried to be “alternative doctors”… I can’t remember the real page that we found the info on but the one I’m linking below is generally the same, with all the info and theory what is happening during feast and flush: http://ww
