Before it’s too late, and before you develop a serious liver disease, certain signs could be showing that excessive waste is accumulating in this cleansing organ.
Your liver is one of the most important organs in your body. It’s the second largest organ, after the skin, and is responsible for fulfilling basic health functions.
Every day it is in charge of filtering the blood to remove toxins and cells that the body no longer needs. It is also responsible for synthesizing carbohydrates and lipids.
It also stores vitamins A, D, E, and K, which are basic in maintaining good physical and mental energy.
But even though it is an excretory organ, too many toxic substances can impede proper functioning, which could therefore affect your health.
The liver is capable of cleansing itself everyday, but when it is overworked, these tasks become more difficult, and it prevents the liver from performing these processes optimally.
That’s why it is important to recognize these symptoms and tend to them in time with a detoxification plan.
Below, we want to reveal 9 Warning Signs Your Liver Needs To Be Cleaned.
Ten signs your liver is telling you it needs help:
1. Abdominal bloatingpain or discomfort over the liver – (right upper abdominal area under the rib cage).
2. Excessive abdominal fat; pot belly; or a roll around the upper abdomen.
3. Trouble digesting fatty foods
4. Had your gallbladder removed
5. Acid reflux/heartburn
6. Dark spots on the skin commonly referred to liver spots
7. Overheating of the body & excessive perspiration
8. Acne/rosacea or itchy, blotchy skin
9. Unexplained weight gain and inability to lose weight even with calorie restriction.
These are all signs that your liver is blocked or clogged up with unhealthy fat – in extreme cased it’s called fatty liver. When this happens the cells that act as a filter become too swollen with fat and the liver cannot screen out or filter the many substances being passed through it.
6 Step Liver Cleanse
1. Remove Toxic Foods From Your Diet
If you are eating a diet high in processed foods, you are putting the health of your liver at risk. Hydrogenated oils, refined sugar, convenience foods and lunch meats are notoriously toxic to your system.
2. Drink Raw Vegetable Juice
With impaired liver function, juicing vegetables has the added benefit of making the vegetables easier to digest, and more readily available for absorption.
3. Load Up On Potassium Rich Foods
Potassium-rich foods help to lower systolic blood pressure, lower cholesterol and support a healthy cardiovascular system, in addition to helping cleanse your liver. Add these healthful foods to your diet:
- Sweet Potatoes
- Tomato Sauces
- Beet Greens and Spinach
- Beans
- Bananas
4. Coffee Enemas
Combine 2 tablespoons of organic ground coffee with 3 cups of filtered or distilled water and bring to a boil. Simmer gently for 15 minutes and allow to cool. Strain the mixture through cheesecloth and use in your enema kit. Try to retain the mixture for 10-15 minutes, and then release.
5. Take Milk Thistle
Milk thistle helps to eliminate the buildup of heavy metals, prescription medications, environmental pollutants and alcohol in the liver. In addition, it helps to reduce the negative effects on the liver after chemotherapy and radiation.
6. Eat Real Liver or Take Liver Tablets
Liver from young, healthy, grass-fed cattle or chicken liver is rich with Vitamins A and B, folic acid, choline, iron, copper, zinc, chromium and CoQ10. Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods we can eat.
