This is a regimented routine that I use, it takes 2 days to full complete and requires a lot of commitment with no distractions and disturbances, so best to do when you are alone for a weekend and have full access to your bathroom (as some loose stool is normal on day 2) so that you are in ease and relaxed throught the cleansing process
I take a sabbatical from all outside communications, and go offline for the 2 days as well, by downloading whatever I want to watch. Since I always do this cleanse in the Autumn, it works out that I can catch up on watching or rewatching the Navratri Philms on Patreon which definitely aids my cleansing and Purifying Process.
This cleanse is not suitable for small ones, only adults over the age of 25 and preferably done once a year for maintenance, especially if you eat fried and heavy or oily foods alot like oils, cheese, whole dairy, butter, ghee etc. It is a great way one has found to keep oneself from experiencing any nut oil (pitta) sensitivies. These results and the passing of any gallstones are completely individual and there are some people who claim that the green pea passing is just EVOO saponins, even if it is, it makes me feel great after doing it and there are many many testimonials of people who have medical allopathy doctors asking how they passed their gallstones and avoided surgery. I would not advise anyone to follow anything without doing their own research first ...
I am not a doctor or a physician, so please consult your own expert before attempting to follow this regime or any other, especially if you are on any medications like blood thinners.
If you do choose to follow this routine I have laid out the way I go about it here, hope you enjoy the benefits as much as I have (I have done this cleanse once every year since 2019)
Gallstone Flush Routine : drink plenty of water, have only herbal teas (hot or cold tulsi tea is the best and very soothing throughout this cleanse)
DAY ONE :
eat a no fat breakfast and lunch
my breakfast : cooked oats with turmeric salt and lemon
my lunch: steamed veggies with oil free seasonings (herb salt or bragg's amino acids)
>>>> DO NOT EAT AFTER 2PM <<<<
2PM : prepare 3 tblsp. epsom salt with 3cups of water, I use 800ml bc its easiest to measure out 200ml for me at a time for the 4 doses
chill in fridge if you don't like bitter taste, some ppl add tiny bit vit C crystals, I do not
4PM : NOW IS THE TIME TO TAKE IT EASY, do a medi and get all your PreparaTion done
6PM : consume one serving 3/4 cup (or 200ml if using my method) of epsom salt solution
8PM : ingest another 3/4 cup of epsom salt water
9:45pm : mix together 1/2 cup olive oil & 3/4 cup grapefruit juice - shake vigourously - in a bottle, DO NOT TAKE IT YET
I do half and half mixture bc one whole grapefruit usually gives more than 3/4 cup juice, so I use
a whole grapefruit and equal parts EVOO to the grapefruit juice (minimum 1/2 cup oil)
MAKE SURE EVERYTHING DONE IN THE HOUSE BEFORE NEXT STEP, including going to bathroom, having bedtime tea and enough water bottles for the night ... set your environmental controls to warmer if in a cold place and make sure soothing PT sounds are playing all night too

10PM :
consume mixture within 5 min, take no more than 15 min and then lie down immediately, stay as still as possible , go to sleep, DO NOT DO anything stressful or that requires movement as this will interrupt the cleansing process and effectiveness
I usually end up sleeping from 10pm to 7am nonstop, its very easy to sleep for me during this cleanse even though I do not sleep so easily the rest of the time
DAY TWO :
after 6am
upon waking : take 3rd dose of 3/4cup epsom salt mixture or if feeling unwell, delay a bit until feeling better
I have a ginger, haldi, blackpepper tea with coriander and cumin and fennel seeds and keep sipping that to help with any nausea or hunger pangs
around 7am is when one takes third dose and then stay close to the loo (next 3 hours are quite intense with passing some gallstones if you have any & general flushing out of the disgestive tract) I would say this is the most important part to be alone and unobstructed for so DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO THIS CLEANSE IF YOU WILL NOT HAVE FULL FACILITIES this morning for the next few hours 7am -12pm at least
2 hours later (around 9am if first dose at 7am) : take last and final epsom salt mixture, might have to stay very close to the loo afterwards
>>>> wait 2 more hours before consuming any food <<<<
to break your fast, start with soft fruit, smoothie or soup or kitchiri ... in that order for the first day, do not go for anything with too much fiber like toast, or anything heavy and carbonated right a way, you will be more sensitive so be careful and find your balance
be sure to remember to express your gratitude to Bhudevi for your nourishment and to those who came before you that have gone thru this cycle of birth and death successfully
and most of all be grateful to learn about wellbeing from a Higher Being here and now
I would suggest to eat lightly the next day as well ... small meals, soft veggies/meals and lots of fluids, I usually keep drinking any grapefruit juice one has but diluted with water and slowly reintroduce back everything into my meals
