Protect Your Liver By Natural Ways


According to some experts, there’s up to a 99 percent chance your liver is not performing at its very best. Your liver is the 4-pound organ that performs more than 500 bodily functions and chemical reactions every day to keep you alive.

  1. In fact, this organ manufactures a full quart of bile daily to break down fat… 
  2. filters harmful toxins and substances out of nearly 100 gallons of blood every day…
  3.  produces more than 13,000 crucial chemicals and hormones… 
  4. regulates blood sugar levels… 
  5. stores essential vitamins and minerals… 
  6. and detoxifies all internal and external environmental pollutants.



However, an overworked liver that is exposed to the everyday pollutants of our modern world can result in a variety of health problems such as…

  • High blood pressure
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Headaches
  • Irritable bowels
  • Joint pain
  • Elevated cholesterol levels


  1. You could also be at risk for chronic indigestion… 
  2. neuromuscular illnesses… 
  3. blood sugar problems… 
  4. poor eyesight… 
  5. allergies, rashes and itchy skin… 
  6. lung congestion… 
  7. kidney failure… 
  8. or sexual dysfunction.


But don’t think that prescription or over-the-counter meds can help restore the function of your liver. Luckily there are natural solutions such as exercising and watching your diet, as well as supplementing with natural nutrients that can help you maintain good liver function.

In studies published in the journal Hepatology, researchers have found that exercise and decreasing the cholesterol and protein in your diet can help improve your health if you have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)—the most widespread form of liver disease in the developed world.

A study conducted as part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey showed that the more protein you eat, the higher your risk category for being hospitalized from cirrhosis of the liver or liver cancer—or dying from either condition.

Mother Nature can provide help in the form of natural nutrients such as milk thistle, soy lecithin (phosphatidylcholine), artichoke leaf, turmeric root, burdock, N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC), alpha lipoic acid (ALA), trimethylglycine (TMG), dandelion root and olive leaf.

By using these natural methods and keeping an eye on your diet, you can help revive and regenerate healthy liver cells so you can experience the optimum quality of living that you deserve.
