this page! The Importance
of Good Liver and Gallbladder Health
The liver, our largest internal organ,
breaks down the toxins that invade our bodies through the air,
our food, and water, protecting us from their harmful effects.
Liver congestion is caused by toxic
overload, a state where the liver is overly stressed, impairing
its ability to adequately detoxify the bloodstream. When the
liver becomes overloaded it can lead to the development of many
poor health symptoms and conditions, ranging in seriousness
from mild, to dangerous, to fatal. Even a mildly sluggish liver
can seriously lower energy levels and the libido.
It's not surprising that liver and gallbladder congestion has
been implicated as a major contributing factor in most of the
diseases that affect the human organism. In fact, scientists
have found that in all serious diseases, and most particularly
cancers, the liver was in extremely poor condition. Many common
symptoms such as headaches, mental confusion, muscle pain, fatigue,
poor coordination, nerve conditions, skin irritations and emotional
imbalances can be a result of an overexposure to toxins and
their excessive accumulation in the liver and blood.
The importance of ensuring good gallbladder health should not
be underestimated, as it complements and reinforces the liver's
functions. The gallbladder stores bile in a more concentrated
form, drawing bile directly from the liver. Adequate bile production
and its ability to flow freely throughout the body directly
impacts many seemingly unrelated aspects of our health, including
good digestive and elimination functions.
It's clear that when designing any comprehensive health treatment
or preventive health program, we must realize the serious effects
an unhealthy liver or gallbladder can have on our systems and
treat it accordingly.
The Benefits of Completing a Liver
and Gallbladder Cleanse
The liver is intimately involved with
the body's hormonal system, affecting almost all aspects of
our health, including our metabolic rate. A healthy liver and
gallbladder can enhance the body's natural metabolic processes
by increasing the absorption and assimilation of carbohydrates,
proteins, lipids, minerals and vitamins.
To protect our good health, it's imperative that we eliminate
toxins from the body on a regular basis by completing an intensive
liver and gallbladder cleanse every six months. It is also our
responsibility to provide the liver with the vital nutrients
it needs on a daily basis, by following a liver friendly diet
and through supplementation where necessary, to help support
its important daily functions.
Because the liver is intimately involved in many of the body's
physiologic processes, many different beneficial health effects
can be realized when optimal liver and gallbladder health is
achieved. An herbal liver and gallbladder cleanse can promote
optimal liver health by detoxifying and strengthening the hepatic
system, resulting in some of the following general medicinal
health benefits.

How Toxin Accumulation in the Liver Can
Negatively Impact Your Health
Everything we ingest passes through the
liver in some form or another via the bloodstream. In our current
environment, many of the substances we ingest are extremely
difficult for the liver to process, neutralize or expel, leading
to their accumulation in the liver and the bloodstream.
These foreign substances include:
Household chemicals
Artificial food preservatives
Pollutants absorbed from the air
Heavy metals, highly toxic chemicals such
as ammonia, and 'safe' chemicals such as the chlorine and
fluorine that exists in our water supply
Steroids and inoculations used in livestock
Pesticides used in crops
Highly reactive residual chemicals from
medications

The liver can also become congested from some of the common
substances we ingest daily, including:
The excessive consumption of alcohol
The excessive consumption of refined carbohydrates,
sugar, caffeine, hydrogenated fats and trans-fatty acids
The excessive use of common drugs like
aspirin
The excessive consumption of red meat
As the accumulation of toxins in the liver increases, the liver
begins to experience difficulty in eliminating wastes from the
body. Excessive levels of toxins in the bloodstream can become
problematic very quickly, adversely affecting all body systems
including the brain and the nervous system. The liver can also
be adversely stressed when undergoing chemical treatments such
as antibiotics, synthetic hormone treatments and intensive drug
therapy.
Its highly recommended that an herbal liver cleanse be performed
after an individual has completing any type of drug therapy
(unless the treatment involved specifically prohibits any type
of intervention for a specific period of time).
Milk
thistle is the best liver detoxification herb known, so
it should appear as the primary ingredient in any effective
liver cleanse formulation. A well balanced herbal liver cleanse
should also contain a wide spectrum of liver supporting herbs
to help detoxify and strengthen the liver such as: mung bean,
polygonum root, burdock root, dandelion root, rehmannia root,
lycii berries and gardenia fruit.
For most individuals completing a liver
cleansing program every six months will help keep the liver
and gallbladder cleansed and healthy. However, individuals with
an overly toxic or fatty liver should consider completing a
three week intensive liver cleanse to help detoxify and strengthen
the hepatic system and restore good liver and gallbladder health.
