Just seeing if anyone has done a liver flush where gallstones are emptied out, and if you recommend doing one?

Gallstones are emptied out of where, exactly?8
-
Gallstones are formed in the Gall Bladder, I've never heard of them in the liver.
Please see a doctor if you have gallstones to get proper treatment options.10 -
If you have gallstones and they are causing you issues you should see a doctor.6
-
Never done a liver flush. Never done a gallstone flush from the gall bladder either. The simplest preventive is to make sure you are drinking enough water.3
-
Have you been diagnosed with gallstones? If so, I'd follow the recommendations of your physician, and I'm almost certain he didn't recommend a "flush"6

Gallstones severely disrupt the performance of the liver, which has over 500 functions —which is why doing a flush is one of the most important things you can do.1

Please don't mess around with gallstones. Letting the symptoms go on untreated can cause excruciating pain and problems down the road (speaking from experience here). If you're having gallbladder attacks SEE YOUR DOCTOR.9 -
"A gallbladder cleanse — also called a gallbladder flush or a liver flush — is an alternative remedy for ridding the body of gallstones. However, no scientific evidence suggests that a gallbladder cleanse helps prevent or treat gallstones or any other disease."

500 functions? Busy little thing, isn't it?9 -

Awesome news: our livers are made to automatically flush toxins. So unless you have a chronic medical condition, or you're a heavy drinker, your liver will do its own flushing, so you don't have to waste your money on some ridiculous fad diet.
Edited because fat fingers and phones make typos.11 -

I'd rather prepare for a colonoscopy.7 -

I really want to say because they are idiots, but there is so much woo involved with health and weight loss, that I'm not really sure that's fair.6 -
Oh dear God, no! Seriously, just no. Why the hell would anyone willingly put themselves through this?
If you're having gallbladder problems, see your doctor.3 -

What are these over 500 functions of the liver? I feel like my physiology text may have left some out. Which is strange because it's more than 4 inches thick.5
