In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Question: Does anybody know of a holistic way of healing a fatty liver. Not because of alcohol, because of a poor lifestyle. I have a family member that was given this diagnosis, and I’m looking for alternative ways to clear that up.
There are herbs for the liver, dandelion root, which you can brew as a tea, milk thistle, which comes in capsules, lots of fresh fruits and veggies, raw diet is good for that. Sauerkraut, naturally fermented in brine, requires refrigeration. And of all things, coffee. Eating organic is best, as you want to avoid chemicals because the liver sees them as toxins. Coffee is a bile stimulant and helps wash out the liver. There is a gall bladder flush that Hulda Clark reccomends and it is till available on line, it also flushes the liver of fat. I have done it many times when it was a problem for me, gall stones, and it works. I did it twice a year for a few years in my 50's, and healed. Fresh apples and apple cider also help. A weeks fast off of all fats, as many raw veggies and fruits as possible, gives the liver time to clean itself and rest from processing fats, but, we need fat, so only for a week, every 6 weeks. When you resume fat into your diet, extra virgin cold pressed olive oil and pastured butter only.The cabbage family is also excellent for the liver, which includes, kale, broccoli, collards, cabbages red and green, brussels sprouts. The Hulda Clark gall bladder flush works though, it is an ordeal, almost similiar to a colonoscopy prep, using epsom salts, lemon juice and olive oil. The details can be found on line. It requires two days off though, as the actual flush requires close proximity to the toilet.
Thanks for the information. Is the Hulda Clark Cleanse a pill, or is it stuff that you drink. I have one of her books, so I’m wondering if it’s something you have to make yourself or something you can purchase. If so, where did you purchase it?
This is some solid advice. Thank you.
Nothing special, it involves some fasting fat free, drinking an epsom salts solution, taken at intervals, topping it all off with a delicious (kidding) mixture of pure fresh lemon juice with olive oil straight up, washed down with another epsom salts chaser, going to bed, and laying on either your left or right side, I do not remember, whatever side the gall bladder is on, you lay so the mixture will flow into the ducts, waking up and one more dose salts, and shitting your brains out, eventually, the bowels are empty and you continue to pass gravel, maybe a few large stones, and what is called chaffe. You resume a good light diet for a few days after this. There should be no pain, as the magnesium in the epsom salts relax the ducts. Just a lot of bathroom time and commitment, the epsom salts are bitter and she suggests using a little lemon juice for that, and you can switch fresh grapefruit juice for lemon juice with the olive oil. A day after, you will feel great and clean inside.

And also eat lots of citric acid. I know this from experience as I am having to help my husband through a liver problem as well.
lol I pretty much answered this in my previous comment just now
Basically cut down sugars, alcohol and carbs (and toxins in the form of processed food). Do intermittent fasting. And boom, you will be amazed how well the body can heal itself once you stop suffocating it with toxins.
Some good stuff: Turmeric, Matcha etc
Some good videos: Eric Berg Mark Hyman (start at 5 mins)
Liver = detox organ
Lifestyle = full of toxins
Go keto, avoid sugar and alcohol like the plague, somehow follow Zappa’s quote: « anything over a mouthful is wasted ». I will pray for your acquaintance.🙏🏻
Broccoli heals the liver.
