NUTRITIONAL CURE FOR LIVER PROBLEMS

LIVER FATIGUE

Going on a carrot juice cure for two days, and eating a lot of endive salad should help remedy the problem.

If the problem seems to recur frequently, consult the list of recommended foods and foods to avoid below.

Recommended foods – olives

– clay (dissolve a teaspoon – wild chicory of nutritional clay in – quince a glass of water) – green beans

– artichokes, asparagus, eggplant, avocados, carrots, Foods to avoid celery, cabbage, chervil, – alcohol (wine, spirits, beer) parsley, watercress, lettuce, – almonds, pine nuts, dandelion, potatoes, black walnuts, hazelnuts radish, horseradish – processed meats,

An excess of copper or iron in your system can cause liver problems.

Ingesting too much of the following foods can result in an excess of copper or iron:

– liver

– meat (except beef and mutton)

– fish and shellfish

– dried legumes, mushrooms

– oleaginous fruit (very rich in copper).

Absorbing sufficient amounts of zinc and Vitamin C helps reduce the amount of copper in your system. To obtain more zinc and Vitamin C, increase the amount of fresh fruit and vegetables you eat on a daily basis.

Foods containing zinc: oysters (very rich), whole grain bread, horse meat, liver, veal

Your doctor may advise you against some of these foods. If that is the case, ask for a zinc supplement instead.

Another effective remedy for liver problems is a two-day carrot juice cure, accompanied by dandelion and endive salads. Squash and pumpkin are also beneficial.

If your liver is chronically fatigued, you may be suffering from a wide range of symptoms: appetite loss, coated tongue, headaches, dull aching pain in the liver region, nausea and bad breath, to name just a few.

The best thing to do is clean and drain your tired liver. Start by adopting a healthy diet.

– Cut down on sugar, animal fat, fat processed meats, fried foods, etc.

– Eat more fruit, especially apples, pears and grapes.

– Eat more green vegetables: leeks, celery, raw cabbage, chives, onions, carrots and turnips.

– Try fasting one day a week: drink only herbal tea or spring water.

– A weekly cup of green tea may help to keep toxins from damaging your liver. If you manage 10 cups per week, even better protection against liver disease is likely.
