The liver is one of the most resilient organs in the body. It is capable of incredible self healing if given a chance. By cutting out alcohol, illicit drugs, smoking and over eating of fatty foods, your liver will be able to begin regenerating. This 'liver diet' is easier said than done as these habits are usually a coping mechanism for another condition such as anxiety or depression. So if you have problems cutting out the thing that's causing your liver problems, you need to work on the underlying issue first.

   
There are many detox kits and liver diets on the market these days and most of them will help kick start your new way of eating and drinking. The main thing is to cut out the substance that is doing the damage and after the detox you'll need to learn what levels you can have it again at. For example you might find after experimentation that 4 standard alcoholic drinks a night is all you can take. Or maybe none at all. Regular blood tests and careful monitoring will let you know.

Herbal Treatments To Boost Liver Function

Milk Thistle is a plant that comes from the same group of flowers as the daisy. The seeds of this plant contain an antioxidant called silymarin, which has been used in some herbal remedies for many years. Its believed that antioxidants, which are also found in certain vitamins, help prevent cancer. We do not know this for sure and this is a very difficult thing to prove. In theory, these antioxidants help to prevent body cells being damaged by oxygen particles called free radicals. Scientists are not denying that milk thistle may play a part in treating liver disease and some types of cancers, but a lot more research is needed before we will know for sure. Although taking milk thistle is generally considered safe, we would not recommend that anyone took it without consulting a doctor first. Women who are pregnant or breast- feeding should not take this herb.

Dandelion Root has a lengthy history of being used throughout the world as a liver herb. It can be especially useful during cases of hepatitis (liver inflammation) and jaundice. Human and animal studies show that dandelion root stimulates bile secretion. The liver removes its debris by dumping it into the bile which then flows into the intestinal tract and is eliminated in the stool. Therefore, the greater the bile flow, the greater the cleansing of the liver. The high choline content of the root is one ingredient which helps this tonifying effect.
