Cleansing the liver is just as important as cleansing
any other organ in the body. Some people will buy colon cleansing formulas
not realizing that the liver needs to be looked after too.
One great method of cleansing the liver is by using lemon juice. Simply add
the juice to a glass of water and sip it throughout the meal. This will help
you stomach digest your food and prevent undigested food entering the blood
stream. This syndrome is sometimes called a leaky gut. The liver sees them
as contaminates, food particles, even minute particles should not be in the
bloodstream. The liver filters them out. Improving the digestion process
relieves the liver of this filtering load.
Another reason why lemon juice is good for the liver is that it helps get
rid of gallstones. Gallstones are calcified bile usually surrounding a
parasite or bacteria, in an attempt to destroy the bacteria. Your body can
have a really difficult time trying to remove these gallstones and because
gallstones are porous they can become a breading ground for further
infection, compounding the problem.
You can mix lemon juice with olive oil and Epsom salts which you take at
specified times during the day and evening of treatment. When on this
treatment you'll need to go on a non-fat diet for the day before the cleanse
and the day off. Since the bile isn't being used to breakdown the fat it
will build up. The built up bile add pressures to push the stones out of the
gallbladder.
Lemon juice has another beneficial use to the liver. It's high in vitamin C,
a powerful antioxidant. When the liver removes certain contaminants from the
blood stream it converts them to free radicals. Antioxidants neutralize the
effects of the free radicals.
