I don't know if you have ever done a liver cleanse? My husband has and he found it very helpful. I have known for years that it was something I needed to do. I had chemotherapy in my early twenties and have never felt amazing since that time. I know that the liver slowly accumulates stones as does the gall bladder and that if I do a cleanse I can flush a lot of those out of my body and free my liver and gall bladder to operate in greater health. Why would I not do this? I have had so many reasons.
The number one reason being my great addiction to sugar. This has held me back every time. To do this cleanse you first want to do a general parasite cleanse and candida cleanse. This is because every stone in your liver and gall bladder has a parasite at its center. It is disgusting to think about. Anyway so you do a couple weeks of no sugar, low dairy and low gluten and for me anyway, carbs overall, as that is what parasites and candida live off of. I have been off sugar and gluten and dairy almost exclusively for at least three weeks. I have been trying to kill the candida by taking probiotics, taking drops that are supposed to help kill the candida and it was not working. I then started making a drink with apple cider vinegar, ginger, and stevia and drinking a cup a day and that with the probiotics seems to be working. I am hoping every parasite will die die die!!
This particular cleanse then also calls for four days of drinking apple juice mixed with special drops that shrink the stones, and then three days of eating no fat so that bile can build up. After all this you do the cleanse which is quite simple although you have to drink olive oil with grapefruit juice and Epsom salts (at different times). I am very nervous about those parts of the cleanse. Since starting this way of eating I don't think I have dropped any pounds but I can feel that my clothes are getting bigger and my stomach is less bloated. I also feel like my head is lighter in a good way ~ less fog! The reason I felt strong enough to eat like this in the first place after months and months of not feeling it was that I started to get up early and work out three mornings a week. After doing that for a month one day I woke up and was able to choose to say no to sugar in all forms. Some days I have cheated a bit and those were days I really wanted comfort. I am not sure when I will get up the nerve to do the actual cleanse. Apparently you pass hundreds of stones. I know after my husband did this cleanse his allergies cleared up immensely. This cleanse is most effective if you do it three times over the course of six months. I only plan to do it once....but who knows. I would love to be kind enough to myself to do it more than once. My liver has gone through a lot so far! Have you ever tried any sort of cleanse? I have done other cleanses with quite overwhelming results but not a specific liver cleanse.
FYI
Some gentle ways to cleanse your liver ~
You can take milk thistle or dandylion supplements
You can bath in Epsom salts or just soak your feet in water with Epsom salts

These will just bless your liver in general
Have a great rest of your week ~ Love Tansy
Can you share your apple cider vinegar recipe please? And maybe a picture to go with it? And maybe you could do a series of posts on what exactly to do for a liver cleanse. Do you see the stones you pass 🙊 Can you do the cleanse without the drops 💦 just some questions 💕❤️💕
ReplyDeleteI wish I'd known about liver cleanse years ago, I had surgery to remove my gallbladder due to large stones and infection. I've had so many problems since. How did you get on with the cleanse? Xxx
ReplyDeleteThe cleanse was good but I think I needed to do a few in a row. I need to do another one. Do you take ox bile pills? They may help you digest food better....
