I know I have a congested liver. It is not putting out any bile and I am extremly constipated and have had a leaky gut and food allergies for many years. I am allergic to olive oil. The last time I did a Liver Flush I got very sick. Can I substitute an oil like Udo's blend or flaxseed oil for the olive oil? The cost is not an issue for me.
I've had great success with macadamia nut oil and also apricot kernel oil. I know others have used various oils like walnut and safflower and gotten good results, too. I don't know about Udo's or flax...perhaps someone else will give you input. The only oil that I have heard does not work is coconut oil...but I have never tried it and don't know the reason.
I like using the clear or very pale colored oils...and then seeing the dark green stones. It confirms for me that these stones are not merely congealed oil!
I m not sure why and never looked into it but I believe that flax does not flush the liver! Although it has other benefits and besides Udos Blend having flax in its ingredients I would avoid a blended oil if nothing else so you know what works best for you!
I agree with Ptree and like her idea about the clear colored or amber colored oils!
