Liver care when fighting cancer
Along with milk thistle, alpha lipoic acid is another good one. Here is what I have to say about the liver in my suggested anti-cancer protocol:
It cannot be stressed enough how vitally important it is to cleanse, restore and protect the liver before, during and after your anti-cancer and disease battle. As the great cancer pioneer Max Gerson observed, cancer cannot develop unless the liver is impaired to begin with. An effective cancer fighting regimen can severely tax an already weakened liver because it will result in the release of a cascade of toxins that are released when cancer cells die. Such a release can overwhelm an already impaired liver and can even be fatal if measures are not taken to protect and regenerate the liver. Following is a suggested liver cleanse and suggested further measures to take to cleanse, detox, protect and help regenerate the vital liver:
Five day liver cleanse.
- It is best to have day 4 on a Saturday or at a time when you are staying at home.
- Day 1: Drink 1 liter (4 cups) of apple juice during the day. Eat as normal otherwise.
- Day 2: Drink another liter of apple juice. Eat normally
- Day 3: Drink a 3rd liter of apple juice. Eat normally
- Day 4: Do not take any sold food after lunch time
- 6pm - Take one level tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water
- 8pm - Take another tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water. You may find that you already have to take a trip to the toilet before the 8pm Epsom salt.
- 10pm - Mix one half glass of olive oil and three quarter glass of freshly squeezed grape fruit juice by shaking it very well in a jar with a lid so that it mixes well and immediately get into bed after drinking the mixture. You will probably make more than one trip to the toilet during the night as well as during the next day.
- Day 5:
- 6am: Take another tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water
- 8am: Take one final tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water.
- You will find that many gallstones from the liver will be passed and one will notice them in the toilet. They will vary in size from about pin head size to 10mm. Gallstones in the liver are a major cause of many health problems.
The above liver cleanse can be repeated every month until one finds that for two months in succession no more gallstones are passed. The liver will then be clean. (You can read about this in much more detail in Andreas Moritz's book ' "The liver and gallbladder miracle cleanse" which you can download from his site at www.ener-chi.com)
Other things to do for the liver:
- Coffee enemas - help open the bile ducts so bile and toxins can be released properly.
- Coconut oil - a wonderful item everyone should take, it helps maintain a good bile flow.
- Beetroot juice - is also good for the liver and bile flow.
- Turmeric - is a cancer fighter itself, especially for smokers, and it helps regulate bile flow.
- Milk thistle - is a must as it helps protect the liver and actually regenerate it
- Alpha lipoic acid - another liver supplement that also helps fight cancer
- Selenium - a third liver supplement that is good against cancer too.
- In the Berkson Clinical Study, three women who were facing liver transplants or chemo with interferon (a horrendous treatment with very low success rates for hepatitis and cirhossis), took milk thistle, alpha lipoic acid and selenium, modified their diets a bit and got some daily exercise and restored their liver functions to normal.
Besides cleansing and detoxing your body, also cleanse your environment to the greatest extent possible of pesticides, herbicides, household cleansers, air fresheners and other manmade chemicals. In an ideal world, you would move to the country where there was plenty of fresh air and sunshine and less stress. In the real world you may not find that possible, so eliminate common toxins in your household, workplace and other places you spend time.
If you have mercury amalgam fillings in your teeth, have them replaced. In many instances, this step alone has led to elimination of cancer. Cilantro and chlorella can help eliminate heavy metal accumulations in the body. A specially blended and wildcrafted formula which utilizes cilantro and chlorella is Metal Magic by Jon Barron.
I would add that if a person had time, it would be a good idea to start off with a bowel cleanse first and then go for the liver/gallbladder cleanse. With time of the essence, it might be best to go for a milder cleanse which can be taken along with food and supplements and the daily enemas and rest of the suggestions AND to look for a fast acting protocol at Cancertutor:
