Liver Cleanse For a Healthier LifeA liver cleanse is important for a healthy body because our liver is responsible for removing toxins and other dangerous substances from our body. The liver does this by producing bile, the bile then binds the toxins and poisons to move then out of the body.Toxins In Our BodyWe ingest so many toxins, hormones, metals, preservatives and other unhealthy chemicals that are in our food, the air we breathe and the water we drink that it gets harder and harder for our liver to function properly. Improper functioning of the liver can lead to damage, and a damaged liver can lead to serious illness including death.While we can’t stop living, and even if we try to live the purest life possible with organic foods and drinks we still live in the same environment. What we can do to help improve our liver function is to do a liver cleanse. You can do this at home, although it is a little different than a normal detox diet. Here you will find one of the most popular methods created by Dr. Hulda author of the book The Cure for all Diseases. The MethodYou will need Extra Virgin olive oils, a large grapefruit or 3 lemons, and Epsom salt. It is recommended that you start your liver detox on a Saturday so that you can have at least one day you are able to rest and take it easy. You will not want to take any vitamins or pills during your liver cleanse. (Important only stop the medications, pills, vitamins that are not vital to your life. Blood pressure pills, heart medication, diabetic pills are necessities and therefore should be taken.)Have a no fat breakfast. You shouldn’t eat after 2pm on the first day of your cleanse. At 2pm, you will mix 4 tbsp of Epsom salt in 3 cups of water and pour it into a jar and put it in the refrigerator. At 6pm you will drink ¾ cup of the mixture, then get the olive oil and grapefruit out to warm them up. You will again drink another ¾ cup at 8 pm. Remember you have not eaten since before 2 pm, but you will not be hungry. At 9:45pm pour ½ cup olive oil into a pint jar, wash the grapefruit in hot water and dry it. Squeeze it by hand into the measuring cup, remove pulp. You should have ½ to ¾ cup. Add this to the olive oil. At 10 pm drink this mixture. When you wake up in the morning drink another ¾ cup of the original mixture but not before 6 am, and again 2 hours later and you have completed your liver cleanse. Dr. Hulda recommends taking it easy and resting as much as possible as the liver cleanse does its job and removes any gallstones. Timing is critical when you are doing this method of liver cleansing, so be sure not to vary more than 5 minutes. Remember when in doubt about whether you should do this always seek the advice of your alternative medicine physician . Bookmark
