How to Restore Health to Your Sluggish, Overworked Liver
By Dr. Michael Cutler • Sep 30th, 2009 • Category: Cleansing/Detox, Digestive Health, Dr. Cutler's True Health Blog Archive, General HealthMiserable symptoms such as headaches, frequent fatigue, blood pressure problems and skin rash is your overworked liver’s way of talking to you and I encourage you to listen to what it has to say.
Your liver is that “often forgotten” 4-pound organ located on the right side of your body that performs more than 500 bodily functions and chemical reactions every single day to keep you alive. In fact, your liver is so important, medical experts agree: If your body was a corporation, your liver would be the president.
Your liver is under constant abuse from over-the-counter and prescription medications, air and water pollution, alcohol use, chemical food additives, stress hormones and a host of other toxic weapons that are out to destroy it. And the fact is… if your liver breaks down, your body breaks down and you could die.
Your liver removes toxins and impurities from your body before they can cause you harm. But there’s a very good chance your liver is not performing at its maximum ability. And if you’re over age 40, you may already have the beginning of a sluggish liver that can lead to an exhausted body.
In fact, by the time you reach age 40, the tubes and ducts leading to and from your liver can start to get clogged with undigested fats, environmental toxins, gallstones, scar tissue and metabolic wastes. And by age 50, you may only be getting a quarter of the bile your body needs to break down the fats from all the foods in your diet.
When your liver can’t make enough bile to remove the toxins, it encapsulates and stores the toxic materials, which will effect and harm your body for years to come. Some of these toxins become hard mineralized stones stored in your gall bladder—commonly known as gallstones.
As time goes on, these stones accumulate and can block normal bile flow from your gallbladder to your liver. So if you have gallstones, you have a clear warning of a possibly serious liver problem.
But there’s hope for improving the condition of this all-important organ with simple and natural ways that safely help remove dangerous toxins from your liver, unclog your liver cells and boost your liver function.
There are herbs, antioxidants, super-nutrients and amino acids that can help you detox and promote proper liver function. Some I recommend are milk thistle, soy lecithin and artichoke leaf. Plus other nutrients such as n-acetyl-L-cysteine, alpha lipoic acid and trimethylglycine can all help contribute to a well-functioning liver and a healthy body.
Even as we speak, harmful toxins are
accumulating inside your liver!
If you are over 40 years old and...
- Regularly take over-the-counter or prescription drugs...
- Eat red meat, fast food or a high-fat diet...
- Consume beer, wine or other alcoholic beverages...
- Drink tap water out of your faucet...
- Use sprays and aerosol products around your house...
- Drive in traffic, work in the city or stay in the house all day...
Then dangerous toxins may be clogging up your body and pushing your liver to the breaking point. This can lead to serious health problems—unless you do something about it.
The key is to cleanse and detoxify your liver. How? With a natural detox supplement that's helping thousands of people fight back and recapture their health again.
