Never heard of this. In general, bezoars are treated endoscopically and removed. You look, you see it, you remove it. a liquid diet that does not have fiber or other fixed elements in theory but in practice it and the bezoar often have calcium or other high mineral content. Likewise solid hard things like vitamin tablets are likely to CAUSE bezoars or adhere and enlarge them.
