Hey guys, just wondering if i can use some other fruit juice instead of grapefruit? Maybe lemon? I'm abroad at the moment and need to flush soon but I've asked everywhere and I can't get my hands on grapefruits. I'm worried the flush won't be as productive/successful if i use lemon or something. But then again, is the juice actually doing anything or is it just to help the oil go down?- Re: Can I substitute the Grapefruit? archus

Yes, you can use, lemon or orange for the flush. Yellow grape fruits are not so good because it tends to raise BP.
Basically you need HCL in the fruit juice to open up the duodenum sphincter quickly so liver and GB purges and push things out.
I have used both lemon and an orange juice and flush was just fine.

This is a reply to # 2,287,370I'm not sure that citrus juices contain hydrochloric acid. Overall, tart juices have a contracting effect, "squeezing" the gallbladder so bile comes out. If I am wrong, please say so. I'd like to get to the bottom of this. In any case, citrus juice of any kind is the way to go.

Yes, my bad.
Correction, all citrus fruits have citric acid which is very helpful in generating HCL in your stomach. Without souring of food in the stomach the duodenum sphincter does not open. I do not think citric acid purges the liver/GB, the fat in oil does.
When people drink oil by itself, it stays in your stomach till it mixes with HCL thouroughly for it to go down in your duodenum.
Thanks for pointing out my error.

"When people drink oil by itself, it stays in your stomach till it mixes with HCL thouroughly for it to go down in your duodenum."
I would guess that if you are short of HCl, as so many apparently are, you would sooner or later just puke up the whole wad. UGH! - Re: Can I substitute the Grapefruit? Tayto
