My Experience with the Amazing Liver & Gallbladder Flush
This is My Experience with the Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush popularised by Andreas Moritz.
I first have to mention I was nothing short of blown-away by the results of the Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush, known as a liver flush or liver cleanse, this procedure produces tangible and rapid results. Moreso than any other detox protocol I have embarked on… and trust me I have performed more than I, or my bank balance, cares to remember!
With that disclaimer out the way, what exactly is a Liver & Gallbladder Flush? Strangely enough this detox is something I had heard about years & years ago, back in the days of me perusing CureZone or other niche alternative health sites. For whatever reason I was immediately turned off by the thought of this ‘cleanse’ or ‘detox’. (This was in the time I believed supplements were the cure for everything, how times change!)
The idea is our gallbladder & liver are blocked due to numerous reasons we’ll go into further on. This blockage massively reduces the flow of bile which is essential for correct digestion of food. Without correctly digesting food over a period of years or even decades we live in a state of constant malnutrtion and toxicity. Through a non-invasive, cheap, and painless technique described by Andreas, we can clear these stones through a series of flushes, with the ultimate goal to completely overhaul our health!
For reasons unknown to me now I simply did not believe a specific organ could in anyway be cleansed. Now it’s safe to say my opinion has evidently been proven wrong!

Why I chose the Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush
In a nut-shell, Andreas describes how gallstones are much more common than mainsteam medicine would have us believe. Not only are they more common, they also block both the gallbladder and the liver. An opinion certainly not shared by the majority of experts. However there is much evidence to suggest that the liver and bile ducts can be host to a huge number of these ‘stones’ known medically as intrehepatic gallstones. These stones block the flow of bile and therefore wreak havoc on the body causing numerous health complaints.

Miscellaneous symptoms
There may be many more signs and symptoms indicating the presence of gallstones in the liver and gallbladder than those listed above. Pain in the right shoulder, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, numbness in the legs, and sciatica, for example, may have no obvious relation to gallstones in the liver. Yet, by removing the gallstones, these conditions usually disappear.
How did Andreas Moritz create his famous liver flush?
Andreas Moritz perfected this flush after a series of gallbladder attacks left him in a dire health state early in his life. Diagnosed as terminally ill, Andreas devised a protocol that would not only rid his body of gallstones but also remedy just about any health condition one could think of. This is Andreas story in his own words:
“When I was eight years old, my uncle—who was the leading iridologist in Germany at that time—examined my eyes and told me that I had ‘stones’ in my liver. From age six I began to have difficulties digesting food. During th e following 12 years I developed
such varied problems as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, arrhythmia, chronic constipation, chronic headach es and migraines, frightening nightmares, skin diseases and a shor t scoliosis of the spine. Every 4-5 weeks I suffered fainting spells while standing in a church, a bank or post office. These fainting spells became more and more severe and were accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea. I was sick in bed for 3-4 days after each one of these episodes. No doctor was able to offer an explanation for these debilitating symptoms.
“At age 15, I began to study the digestive system and I changed my diet numerous times in order to find out whether my choice of foods contributed in some way to my ailments. Eventually, I realized that I had literally been poisoning my body with foods derived from
animal sources (meat, fish, chicken, eggs, cheese, milk). After I completely avoided these foods, most of my symptoms disappeared. However, my liver seemed sluggish, the scoliosis remained, and I was heading towards another series of crises. About 10 years later I began to suffer major gallbladder attacks. The stones that my uncle had seen years earlier had grown larger and multiplied many times. [If the stones are not completely removed they continue to block bile flow, which increases stone formation.] In total, I suffered over 40 extremely painful attacks that lasted 3-10 days each. These were usually accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea, headaches, excruciating backaches and sleepless nights. Since I had never taken painkillers, medical drugs or vaccines in my life, they were not an option for me. Besides, I was determined to discover a true solution to this problem. “I began to experiment with different herbs, treatments and liver cleansing methods prevalent in various cultures and over eons of time.
From all the methods I researched, tested and tried, the procedure outlined in this book turned out to be the most effective for me. During my first real liver cleanse , I passed over 500 gallstones. My gallbladder attacks stopped from that very day. Other problems, such as backaches, joint pain, short scoliosis and digestive problems, improved with each new cleanse. After 12 cleanses and 3,500 gallstones less, my liver was completely clean and, at last, my health was the way I always wanted it to be. Today people comment on my youthful vitality, zest for life and fit, flexible body, things I only dreamed about having 30 years ago.”
After completing more than 20 flushes himself, Andreas was able to not only rid himself of gallbladder stones naturally, but also completely overhaul his entire health. Outlined in very thorough detail, Andreas explains exactly how clearing the body of gallstones can cure so many ailments in his book, The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush, I highly recommend picking up a copy if you can.
Andreas also has this to say in the opening of his book:
“Most people believe that gallstones can be found only in the gallbladder. This is a common false assumption. Most gallstones are actually formed in the liver and comparatively few occur in the gallbladder.
You can easily verify this assessment by giving yourself a liver cleanse. It matters little whether you are a layperson, a medical doctor, a scientist, or someone who no longer has a gallbladder and, therefore, is believed to be free of gallstones altogether. The results of the liver cleanse speak for themselves. No amount of scientific proof or medical explanation can make these any more valuable than they already are.
Once you see hundreds of green or beige-colored gallstones floating in the toilet bowl during your first liver flush, you will intuitively know that you are on to something very important in your life. To satisfy your curious mind you may decide to take the stones to a laboratory for chemical analysis or ask your physician what he thinks about all that. But what is most significant in th is experience is the fact that you have taken active responsibility for your own health, perhaps for the first time in your life.“
I have to agree with Andreas with considerable attention to the last paragraph. When looking online you will quickly notice an intense debate concerning the actual composition of the stones that are expelled. Proponents of Andreas will of course argue these are what are referred to as intrehepatic gallstones, that is gallstones that lie in the bile duct between the liver and gallbladder.
Whilst Andreas non-believers so to speak, will argue that these green stones are nothing more than a coagulated formation of the olive oil that is ingested during the protocol. As mentioned by Andreas himself, the consistency isn’t actually important, what is important are the results.
Why I chose the Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush
After partaking in innumberable detox protocols something in my mindset shifted between 2021 – 2022. Whilst the past 7+ years of my healing journey are something I would rather forget, they have clearly guided me towards the place where I now find myself.
To sum it up better than I ever could I paraphrase another amazing natural healer:
After trying literally all manner of traditional allopathic, as well as alternative, health routines finally I come to the conclusion that less is more. It’s not so much what we’re putting in our bodies as much as what is coming out! Now The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush absolutely epitomises this. Spending thousands of your hard earned money on supplements galore is, in my opinion, never going to resolve your chronic health conditions.
Now don’t get me wrong. People suffering with chronic health conditions are likely at a point where supplements are the only thing keeping them from a full blown physical chrisis or emergency room visit. When our digestive systems are so damaged from poor diet, GMO’s, antibiotics, invasive medical procedures, stress, overeating etc., then no amount of positive thinking or even green smoothies can bring our bodies back from the brink. In these cases, supplements can be literal life-saving additions to our life that maintain what little amount of nutrients our body is able to absorb.
However… whilst they may temporarily resolve symptoms it makes no sense that they could reverse or more importantly cure any chronic health problem… and trust me I’m the person who has bottles and bottles of every supplement you could possibly imagine in my cupboard. Does this sound familiar?
Those of you with more bottles of supplements than cans of food in your cupboard, have your chronic health problems improved significantly and more importantly permanently thanks to supplements? My line of thinking is, if I have to take a supplement every single day then it’s not fixing the problem, it’s just a sticky plaster!
What do I need to undertake the Liver and Gallbladder Flush?
One of the reasons natural healing remedies don’t get much attention from the mainstream health industry is they often cost very little, or nothing at all! Liver cleanses are no different, with an entire cleanse likely costing less than a retaurant meal.
The idea behind this cleanse is simple, and therefore can have some adjustments based on preferences. Firstly a few days is spent softening the stones in the gallbladder and liver by ingesting a form of malic acid. This is a naturally occuring substance found in high quantities in apples. This is why the original receipe includes drinking 1 litre of apple juice each day for around 5 days.
Many people prefer to use other methods of including malic acid because of the high sugar content in apple juice. This can be substituted for apple cider vinegar, which is my personal preference, or by simply purchasing a malic acid supplement.
After a number of days ingesting your preferred ‘stone softener’ you body is ready to expel the stones.
Next up is the magnesium sulfate, more commonly known as Epsom Salts. The reason Epsom Salts are included is because they have a powerful relaxing and dilating effect on the bile ducts, allowing a comfortable passing of any stones with no pain whatsoever.
Lastly we need to initiate a strong contraction of the gallbladder which effectively pushes the stones out. This is achieved by abstaining from any fat in the diet whatsoever for a minimum of 24 hours. This ensures a sufficient amount of bile is stored before the cleanse. To initiate the contraction we ingest a large quantity of organic cold-pressed olive oil.
Supplies required:
- Apple juice – 6x 1 litre Organic Apple Juice, or better yet freshly pressed apple juice. OR Organic Apple Cider Vinegar (with The Mother). A small bottle of 250 ml will do, although most are available in 500ml or more. OR 6 Tsp of Malic Acid in supplement form.
- Epsom Salts (Food Grade) 4 tablespoons mixed in 710 ml water. Divide water into 4 seperate and equal glasses.
- Olive Oil (Organic, cold-pressed, Extra Virgin) 170 ml / 6 oz.
- Fresh pink grapefruits (at least one, ideally two), or lemons.
These are the absolute essential ingredients to perform the liver & gallbladder flush. There are additional ingredients that I have adapted which I believe increase the effectiveness of the cleanse which I’ll discuss further along.
How to do the Amazing Liver & Gallbladder Flush
Preparation
There are two methods of doing this cleanse. A complete 6 day cleanse or a less intense but still effective 2 day cleanse.
When embarking on the 6 day cleanse your daily routine won’t change much other than ingesting the malic acid/apple juice/apple cider vineger. Which means most people should be able to manage it without disruption to their regular schedule.
However I understand many of us have work or family commitments which may make this challenging. If this is the case, instead follow the guidelines for days 1 – 5 for just one day prior to the flush day.
Days 1 – 5
- Drink 1 Litre of apple juice spread evenly throughout the day, avoid drinking an hour before or after food. Those using apple cider vineger should drink 4 oz/113 ml per day to ingest the same amount of malic acid. Finally, those using malic acid supplements, drink 1 teaspoon of malic acid powder mixed in 1 litre of water per day for 5 days.
- Try to eat progressively less fat as you reach the end of day 5. If this interrupts your schedule too much it’s not the end of the world, however it will increase the efficacy of the flush.
Day 6 – Flush Day!
Morning
If you feel hungry in the morning, you may eat a light breakfast, a small amount porridge is a good choice. Avoid sugar or other sweeteners, spices, milk, butter, oils, yogurt, cheese, eggs, nuts, pastries, cold cereals, or animal products in general; etc. Fruits or fruit juices are fine. You may continue to drink your apple juice/apple cider vinegar or malic acid drink. If you feel it neccessary to eat lunch, eat plain cooked or steamed vegetables with white rice and flavor it with a little himalayan salt. It is important you do not eat or drink anything (except water) after 2PM, otherwise you may not flush out any stones!
Evening
After consuming the oil IMMEDIATELY LIE DOWN on your right side with your knees pulled towards your chest. This part is very important. If you couldn’t consume the drink in one go, aim to be in bed within 5 minutes at the most. Be aware if you don’t have your head more elevated than your abodomen you could experience nasty oil reflux (not fun).
Lie perfectly still for at least 20 minutes and try not to speak! Put your attention on your liver. You may even feel the stones traveling along the bile ducts like marbles. There won’t be any pain because the magnesium in the Epsom salts keeps the bile duct valves wide open and relaxed, and the bile that is excreted along with the stones keeps the bile ducts well lubricated (this is very different in the case of a gallbladder attack where magnesium and bile are not present). Go to sleep if you can.
If at any time during the night you feel the urge to have a bowel movement, do so. Check if there are already small gallstones (pea green or tan colored ones) floating in the toilet. You may feel nauseous during the night and/or in the early morning hours. This is mostly due to a strong, sudden outpouring of gallstones and toxins from the liver and gallbladder, pushing the oil mixture back into the stomach. The nausea will pass as the morning progresses.
The Following Morning
6:00-6:30AM: Upon awakening, but not before 6am, drink your third prepared glass of Epsom salts (if you feel very thirsty drink a glass of warm water before taking the salts). Rest, read or meditate. If you are very sleepy, you may go back to bed, although it is best if the body stays in the upright position. Most people feel absolutely fine and prefer to do some light exercises, such as Yoga. Bowel movements are expected.
8:00-8:30AM: Drink your fourth and last 3⁄4 glass of Epsom salts. If, like me, you have had more bowel movements than you care to remember in the lead up, you may skip this part. I haven’t found it neccessary in any of the flushes I have done so far.
10:00-10:30AM: You may drink freshly pressed fruit juice at this time. One half-hour later you may eat one or two pieces of fresh fruit. One hour later you may eat regular (but light) food. By the evening or the next morning you should be back to normal, and feel the first signs of improvement. Continue to eat light meals during the following days. Seriously, as hungry as you may feel avoid gorging on food. I’ve done this and it does not feel good.
What results can I expect from the Liver Flush?
During the morning and likely some time after you will experience a number of watery bowel movements. These initially consist of gallstones mixed with food residue, and then just stones mixed with water. Most of the gallstones are pea-green and float in the toilet because they contain bile compounds. Gallstones can come in all sizes, colors and shapes. The light colored stones are the newest. Blackish stones are the oldest.
Not everyone will expel noticeabe stones, although you should expel green matter if the flush was successful. You may also find a layer of white or tan-colored chaff or ‘foam’ floating in the toilet, this is equally important to rid from the body.
Congratulations!
You have just performed your first non-invasive liver flush! Take the rest of the day easy as you have just undertaken a serious detox protocol and your body will need time to rest. Those who are prone to extremely watery and frequent bowel movements would do well to replenish electrolytes as soon as possible. Stay hydrated but do not drown yourself in water as this can exacerbate electolyte deficiency.
Andreas comments that you will begin to function more efficiently almost right away. You may notice sudden and profound improvements, or they may be more gradual and subtle. Be aware, if you have been chronically unwell for a number of years then one flush will not permanently resolve your problems. You will likely need a series of flushes to completely empty your liver and gallbladder of all the accumulated debris. This is because the older remaining stones and unwanted debris will now travel back towards the front of the liver and begin blocking the bile ducts once again.
This is process like any real detox protocol. Be patient and kind to your body and you will see results.
What was my experience with The Amazing Liver & Gallbladder Flush?
Okay, so you’re probably wondering what were my actual results when doing this flush. Whilst I’m not one for sharing personal info online about myself, in this instance I feel I should share what I can. When I was searching for inspiration I must have read 20+ blog posts on liver flushing and each well-written testimonial helped convince and inspire me, so I feel I have to pay-back the same way.
So far I have performed 3 liver flushes with varying degrees of success. All I can say is each of these 3 flushes had me evacuating a lot of green stones, bile, debris, parasites and all manner of disgusting items! (better out than in for sure!) Seriously I almost could not believe what was coming out.
My first flush I followed almost to the letter. With 5 days of prepartion and a 6th day of flushing, as per the original instructions by Moritz. This was my most ‘fruitful’ if you could call it that.
The second flush I used magnesium malate capsules as my source of malic acid simply as an experiment on myself. This worked but I expelled much less as I only did one preparation day. However, as a 2 day flush that I modified myself, I should add this still absolutely worked.
The third flush was almost as fruitful as the first. What’s great was this was another 2 day cleanse that I slightly changed. Here I added all manner of my own modifications to the cleanse, which I believe really helped move things along! I’ll go into further depth in another post but it included elements of The Turpentine Protocol, Niacin or Vitamin B3 and Frozen Castor Oil Capsules.
Now I’ve seen enough photographic evidence to testify that Liver Flushes definitely work, but if you’re really interested in what I expelled then keep reading.
I feel this is a fair warning! Do not scroll unless you are prepared to see what was evacuated from the depths of my liver. Just be glad you didn’t have to see (or smell, gross I know) this stuff in person!
Summary and Moving Forward with Liver Flushing
I’ve been convinced of many detox protocols over the years, but nothing has brought tangible results like the liver flush. Whilst my symptoms have returned, as outlined they would be Andreas Moritz, I will be continuing to flush until I no longer see any more stones. Andreas advises you can be considered ‘free from stones’ when you perform two consecutive flushes with next to no stones appearing. As you can see I’m far from that stage yet, but getting these out of my body has been nothing short of miraculous.
