Gallstones Some doctors say that gallstones can only be cured by surgery - and in some cases they are right.
Good results have been observed, though, with natural methods. Avoid fatty foods and reduce weight to normal.
Doctors say that a typical patient is female, fat and forty! The following juice combinations are useful:
Apple 10 f1 oz (275m I); celery 6 f1 oz (175ml). Beetroot 16 f1 oz (450ml).
Nettle 6 f1 oz (l75ml); watercress 4 f1 oz (100ml). Carrot 6 f1 oz (l75ml); beetroot 5 f1 oz (l50ml); cucumber 5 f1 oz (150ml). Celery juice is particularly recommended for its effect in preventing the formation of further gallstones. Goiter This enlargement of the thyroid gland is due to too little iodine in the diet. Goiter is only common in areas with little natural iodine where the usual preventive measure or remedy is to use iodized table salt, or better still, sea salt in cooking. The natural way is to add a teaspoonful (5ml) of kelp or dulse to one of the following combinations: Parsley I fl oz (25ml); carrot 7 fl oz (200ml); celery 8 fl oz (225ml). Carrot 10 fl oz (275ml); spinach 4 II oz (100ml); watercress 2 fl oz (50ml).
