A member asked:

Can i do a liver cleanse & gallbladder/gallstone flush while i'm on terbafine hydrochloride?

This is a scam: The "gallstone flush" involves the victim drinking grapefruit juice, epsom salts, and vegetable oil. The next few bowel movements will be peculiar which is not surprising and the sucker is told that they have passed gallstones. They aren't gallstones & your liver's unaffected. If you want to be involved with this foolishness, or think it's "spiritual" to believe obvious lies, it is your business.

No: I do not recommend a gallbladder flush. This could cause more harm.

No such thing: Don't believe everything you read, and don't take any supplements, herbs, otc products, or vitamins without a specific recommendation by your doctor. You often hear also about colon flush or bowel cleansing - i had a patient almost die from this. The body mostly takes care of itself, and interfering with that process is dangerous unless under a doctor's management.
