Liver Remedies:
Natural Liver Remedies
To help your liver be as healthy and productive as it can be, you may need to make a few changes in your diet to be sure you're getting enough nutrition.
You can also use herbal and vitamin supplements to get extra nutrition, and there are several herbs which are wonderful for helping the liver become or stay healthier.
The best changes you can make involve changing the way you eat each day.
Consuming a lot of:
- white flour,
- sugar,
- and simple starches
just wears your entire body down, including the liver, and makes it much harder for you to get enough nutrition throughout the day.
Including more fresh fruits and vegetables is one of the best changes you can make to start boosting your nutrition levels. You can create fruit and vegetable juices using fresh raw produce and a juicer, but some people will have problems with their blood sugar levels rising from this if they drink too many sweet fruit juices.
Eating more quality protein and fats will also help replenish a wide variety of vitamins and minerals your body needs, plus it can help you lose weight because you'll feel full for longer periods of time.
There are also herbal remedies for treating liver damage and problems, or for improving the overall health of your liver.
Some of these suggestions are mainly used to help boost your overall nutrition levels in addition to the food changes you make, while others are specifically designed to help make your liver healthier.
Alfalfa is an herb which should be included with any supplements you take, because it helps your body assimilate vitamins and minerals from other plant sources.
Alfalfa is also extremely nutritional all on its own.
In fact, some people call it the "father of all foods."
Alfalfa will give you iron, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, Vitamins A (carotene) and K, and eight essential amino acids.
An even better source for this crucial vitamins can be found in Dr. Ben Kim's Greens.
Dandelion is an excellent liver cleansing herb.
And yes, dandelion is the little yellow flowering weed most people try to eradicate from their lawn every year.
This little gem from nature can be used whole -- the flower, leaves and roots -- in salads and to make green tea style drinks.
It's very high in calcium and other vitamins, it purifies the blood, and increases the activity of the liver and flow of bile to the intestines, which helps cleanse the liver of toxins, parasites and bacteria.
Dandelion has been found to be an excellent herb for use in hepatitis, plus it increased the activity of both the pancreas and spleen, and it's good for female organs and the urinary passages too.
Chaparral and Yellow Dock are two other herbs which are excellent for cleansing the liver and lymphatic system too.
And Parsley is yet another excellent all around nutritional herb which is extremely high in a wide variety of vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients your body needs.
