Natural Liver Cleansing MethodsWhile there are many different substances that help support liver cleansing, one stands out well above the rest. I'm talking about the milk thistle herb. Milk thistle has been researched thoroughly and time and time again it proves to be a powerhouse for protecting, as well as rejuvenating, the liver. How? This herb is a powerful antioxidant. It protects the liver and other organs against free radicals that can lead to damage and disease. Milk thistle also protects our liver form the damaging effects of prescription medications and over-the-counter drugs. This herb also enhances the liver's ability to regenerate itself. So how much should you take? It depends on the individual, but the good news is that even very high doses are safe. Generally about 300 mg 2-3 times a day is recommended. Look for a product that contains a high percentage of silymarin, a powerful compound from the ripened fruit of the herb.
Wheatgrass juice is excellent. As is juices from carrots, apples, lemons, and grapefruits. Parsley, spinach, dandelion, and beets and also effective. |
