Your fat burning.....get rid of your toxins....lose weight....stay healthy   ORGAN....and you "forgot" to take care of it!

Well, blow me down!  We might go on a DETOX...be exercising to yank those toxins out as well....even eating much healthier versions of our foods we used to, and yet we still don't feel quite AWESOME, still struggle to lose some of those fat bulges, and wonder WHAAT??????

Well, I betcha, I know part of the problem!  And you never even thought about it!  I do, because I know about the incredible (no edible in there...lol..) LIVER!  Let's talk quickly about why you should treat this organ like the royalty it is!  And trust me it truly is! Without it.....you cannot live!  And if it is impaired, you can have a faulty immune system, be sluggish, not lose weight, and be full of toxins, even if you follow DETOX programs and exercise.  Yep, that's right!

It's "just" a little reddish brown,  3 pound lil guy on the right side of your stomach!  But boy should you consider the following!  It converts nutrients from the food we eat into essential blood components,  and stores vitamins and minerals,  while producing proteins and enzymes to maintain our hormone balances.  It also helps our immune systems to fight infections,  removes bacteria from the blood, and makes bile,  which helps digest our meals!  Is it a SUPERSTAR??? ohhhhhhh, yeah!

And what happens if it gets fed years of junk food,  from fried fast food to pop to hmmmm, I'm just gonna leave it to your individual imagination....But bottom line, it gets overworked,  decreases ohhhhhhhhhhh so slowly in function, and you have subtle signs that you might even miss!  Weight gain,  white coating on the tongue,  less white white around the eyeballs,  dull and maybe breakout skin,  headaches, and on and on to the BIG STUFF!  Oy Vey!  At which time you realize you're not up to snuff,  hear about all the super duper DETOX programs,  choose one,  and complete it!  Oh oh!  Did I just hear the overcrowded,  much overused human (the liver) GARBAGE COMPACTOR just grind/hiss/and almost come to a halt?!!!!  Well, here you are with herbs/eating regimes/exercise programs that pulled all those nasty toxins out of everywhere in your body, and the LIVER,  the only one who can be the TRASH HAULER OUTTER, is toooooo pooped to do it!  Knowing how resilient it is,  it likely gets some out into water soluable output,  but leaves a lot behind.  After all,  it can only do so much with extra toxins,  cuz it just is barely keeping up with it's regular jobs, anyhow!  Surely, you NOW see the picture!  So WHAT can you do to help this amazing organ do it's job,  so you can have those detox programs work,  so the exercise you are doing is optimal, so that weight just sheds naturally as you integrate more healthful living??? I'm going to lay it out simply,  easily! If you want details, then ask me directly,  and certainly you will have more ideas by continuing to follow this blog!

ONE)  Unload the liver of all these toxins and literally rebuild it with my favorite herb of all herbs, and that would be Milk Thistle, sometimes known as Silymarin.  If you are ill, under a doctor's care,  then ask for guidance.  I personally go to a GOOD health food store, and ask a savvy worker there for a standardized GREAT brand,  and I take it as directed until the bottle is done.  I do this TWICE a year.  You do not want to do it constantly,  only once or twice a year.  I find it amazing.  I had hepatitis as a child, and it helps me stay so healthy!  It may be contained in your "detox kits," milk thistle, but not in near enough quantity to do what it can separately!

TWO) Try for at least 3-4 weeks, while it heals, to refrain from processed foods,  too much red meat and pork,  wheat and wheat products,  refined sugars,  corn and white potatoes,  too much alcohol or over abundance of caffeine,  and deep fried or pan fried foods. Do also limit DAIRY!   DO intake an abundance of clean water,  (this is where fresh lemon and water is a groovy combo)  clean/whole foods, from unoiled/unsalted nuts (can be roasted, walnuts/pistaschios/almonds are best)  wild fish,  berries, (especially blueberries) grapefruit,  and every veggie that will jump into your mouth, (JK!)  salads galore,  (get in lots of broccoli/spinach/kale) and just whole/real foods that you don't need to even read a label on!  Soups will usually be welcomed as well, as long as they are not meat driven, greasy, etc. 

THREE) get in your healthy essential fatty acids/oils.  Coconut oil/olive oil/Barlean's emulsified Fish oils from the refrigerated health section are delicious and liver friendly! You do need plenty fiber,  so go ahead and have some brown rice, all those veggies, a sweet potato, and yes, fresh butter is OK!  Eat beets like they are the new food that everyone loves. If ya don't like em, read the LAST STEP!

FOUR)  The very BEST thing you could do to unload your liver is to JUICE!  Not make a smoothie.  Not use a Vitamix.  Not use a Magic or NutriBullet.  But buy or make RAW VEGGIE juice, with predominantly, a carrot base, add a few beets, pieces of apple, some raw ginger, and kale or spinach. (ya have to shove it in and put the chunky stuff on top, and the PLUNGE AWAY!)  If you do THIS, it will make your LIVER a LOVER!  Wow, will your life, your weight, your everything,  CHANGE!  OK....if you want to keep it simple:  GO easier on the junk food,  take some Milk thistle for a 2-3 weeks,  and JUICE! (or buy it)
