Vitamin C Forum

I do have gallstones. They do show up on sonography because they are calcified.

I have done a parasite cleanse and colon flush. I have done 6 or 7 gallstone flushes. I think the calcified stones are still there even though I have flushed many hundreds of biliverdin cholesterol stones.

I plan on doing several more gallstone flushes. I was high-dosing with Vitamin C because apparently it increases a substance that softens the stones some. If the calcified stones are not solid calcium, this may help to break up the calcified stones.

Thanks for the response.

I'd question any advice to "hold up on ascorbate" - especially since your tolerance is so high indicating a high need.

When taking sodium asorbate until bowel tolerance small undigested food pieces would come out of my stool. Is this an positive clense effect or abnormal?

This happens with anyone not just those who take sodium asorbate- just that you may notice it more if you reach bowel tolerance - I would not worry about that one bit.

If I were seeing undigested food, I would immediately think that I am not making digestive enzyme properly (or that my stomach acid is low). In either case, I'd seek help. You can purchase digestive enzymes and Betaine HCL at health food stores, and you should avoid antacids (See Dr. Jonathon Wrights WHY STOMACH ACID IS GOOD FOR YOUR).

Hi Jman,

When you approach bowel tolerance, your food may be moving through your digestive tract at an accelerated rate. It could be that your food may not have the time to be effectively digested. It may be like taking a laxative. I would not be too worried about it. Hopefully, once you back off from bowel tolerance, things should return to normal. You might also consider the possibility of chewing your food more thoroughly.

Food stays in the stomach for 2 to 6 hours (according to Dr. Levy). Carbs 2 hours, protein 4 hours and fats 6 hours. Then it is digested by various enzymes in various parts of the gut. The diarreha happens in the colon, at the earliest, and according to Cathcart, only when vitamin C reaches the rectum. I don't understand how reaching bowel tolerance has any effect in digestion?
