I agree.
What you actually saw was all the undigested fat from the 1/2 cup of olive oil you were required to drink to perform your "cleanse". I looked up Clark's recipe. So sorry, it was not "cholesterol globules", whatever that is.I have done cleanses and have had some success getting cholesterol globules to exit my body. The cleanse I used was Hulda Clark's. I did not have any issues at the time, so I cannot testify to "ridding" my body of gallstones. I saw that what was released and it was an abundance of small yellowish green sized cholesterol globules.
Oh, gee....I do wonder what happens to fat when it comes in contact with a base....

It sure is a great example of the kind of woo and silliness consumers are convinced into believing by these snake oil peddling quacks, though.1 -

They're putting a lot of thought into making your poops as violent and disgusting looking as possible to convince you it's "cleaning" you out even though it's their own stuff that caused it.6 -

You mean like an alkali? I'm no chemist, but fat + alkali = soap, right? So those are soap globules coming out? But I'm confused about where the alkali comes in, the recipe I looked at was basically oil + grapefruit juice + Epsom salts (and a few other ingredients) and I don't think Epsom salts are alkaline - or are they? I'm just interested to know what's really going on with this "cleanse".0 -

Just quoting because I've been flagged for it once and I might as well pick up more flags, but also to add this:Over the years, particularly after the dawn of that series of tubes called the internet, patients have asked me about "gallbladder flush" as a method of eliminating gallstones. They've handed me recipes (which commonly include some sort of oil and something acidic like lemon-juice, with a few plants thrown in), and, in some cases, have proudly presented me with little cartons of their stool, containing what they are certain are stones they have pooped out as a result of drinking their herbalicious and natural remedies. Fortunately, as a surgeon, I'm well-used to staring at excrement in its many forms, both within and without the confines of the viscera generally expected to contain it. What I saw was curds. I know stones, and I know curds. These was curds, is what they was. Evidently, if you drink some kinds of oils and chase it with certain acidic substances, what you get is curds in your turds. What you don't get -- and trust me, I've seen the proof in pre- and post-glugging ultrasounds -- is change one in the number and nature of stones in your gallbladder.17 -
Thanks @diannethegeek, that makes sense!
So what are the Epsom salts for? Just make you feel horrible so you are convinced it must be good for you?
The whole thing is so cynical

I'm not sure what epsom salts are for in terms of liver cleansing lol but I know they have a fast acting very fun laxative effect0 -
"Curds in your turds"... Thanks for the giggle, @diannethegeek !
I notice OP seems to have left the building, by the way... funny how that always happens, ain't it?3 -

Dammit. Now I want to experiment to see if I can replicate the globules (in vitro not in vivo).3 -

I have a feeling he was being deliberately colloquial.

Yeah, I was making a silly pooping soap joke due to the 'alkalizing drink' that is mixed with the olive oil since the green pellets do look like olive oil saponified.
Epsom salts are neutral.
But yes.. it is quite acidic in the stomach.0 -
My husband took one look at that picture and said "They look like *kitten*' peas!"
Then made some bad joke about French people having Charles de Gaulle stones. :-P7 -
Yep. I was scrolling to the end to make sure someone posted the fact that the "stones" are actually curds of olive oil soap.
This "cleanse" is kinda cleansing in that it makes SOAP come out of your BUTT. You make the soap IN YOUR BUTT.
But it doesn't remove ANYTHING from your gallbladder. Nothing, nada, not a single stone.12 -

Plagiarism is not cool, dude, even if it is a woo-site.
Eurgh that man
He steals kitten gifs off the internet, posts them on facebook so he has millions of followers and looks reputable. Then before you know it my 'new to facebook' baby boomer relatives are telling me how you only need to eat organic and fast on days ending in a 'y' to cure/prevent cancer.
He's bloody dangerous, though it's a marketing strategy that works well, Britain First springs to mind. Me and my OH are going to give My MIL a lesson on internet safety over Christmas.
