Liver Cleanse

Re-Shape Your Health for pennies a day!

Supporting your liver may just be the missing key to your optimum health! This diverse organ has well over three hundred different functions! It is the first line of defense against any poisons – its role is to change harmful toxins into substances that can be safely eliminated from the body. In addition, all the nourishment obtained through the gastrointestinal tract enters the blood by way of the liver.

Why is the liver important?
The liver is the second largest organ of our bodies. The adult liver weighs 1200-1500 grams (1.2-1.5 kg) and comprises 1/5 of the total adult body weight. It filters 1.4 liters or 3 pints of blood per minute. The liver is the only organ that can regenerate itself. It takes up a lot of space but is not there for padding. 

The liver has over 300 functions, among them are:

• The supreme organ of metabolism
• Causes all things to happen in your body the way they should happen
• Is the main organ for detoxification of pollutants and chemicals in the body
• Part of the digestive system
• Responsible for metabolism of fat, proteins, and carbs
• Creates bile
• Stores blood and energy reserves in the form of glycogen
• Stores fat soluble vitamins
• Helps maintain electrolyte and fluid balance
• Breaks down excess hormones (like estrogen)
• Stores certain unresolved emotions, mostly anger, rage, and resentment or bitterness
• Major detoxification organ through its various enzyme systems
• A blood purifier
• Transforms fat soluble toxins into water soluble substances so that they are more easily eliminated
• When the liver is in failure it is the underlying cause of basically everything that goes wrong with our bodies.

The liver does all of the above and more AND it is one of the most often ignored organs.

The liver secretes vital digestive juices that help properly digest food and cleanse the blood.

Pesticides, polluted air, water and soil are inhaled or absorbed daily. Our exposure to toxins is
increased by our use of steroids, medications, smoking, over-indulgence of alcohol, poor food choices, and not drinking enough fresh clean water.

With the help of our liver we naturally expel the metabolic by-products and toxins produced from the regular functioning and metabolism of our bodies. The liver also has a profound effect on the hormonal system, helping to regulate and balance hormonal activity to ensure the proper functioning of our neurological system.

With the prevalence of synthetic foods, nutrient deficient foods and the environmental pollution of our air and water, our liver is working harder than ever to detoxify our body and regulate healthy metabolic activity. Many different poor health symptoms can result from a liver that is overloaded with toxins and undernourished, including:

• Poor digestion
• Fatigue
• Skin Rashes
• Depression
• Hormonal imbalances
• Obesity
• Gallbladder disease
• PMS
• Allergies
• Jaundice
• Nausea
• Emotional excess
• Headaches
• Drowsiness after eating
• Weak tendons, ligaments And muscles
• Difficulty loosing weight
• Constipation
• Chemical sensitivities

Healthy Liver, Also The Secret To Weight Loss!

One of the best kept secrets in weight loss and lasting weight control is keeping the liver, the key organ for fat metabolism, in tip-top shape. Ann Louise Gittleman, author of The Fat Flush Plan, says “Probably nothing you do to control your weight is as important as keeping your liver healthy. This means avoiding as many of the damaging elements (like alcohol) as possible, while embracing liver boosters. Among some of the lesser known compromisers of liver function are caffeine, sugar, trans fats, medications, and inadequate fiber. ”

Cleaning up the liver is The key to better health, energy and vitality!
