Guest guest Posted August 12, 1999 Report Share Posted August 12, 1999 Im trying to work out from the info that if you are more prone to liver toxicity if you have an inactive liver disease, even without scarring. I have no scarring and just had mild inflammation at the time I increased the dose of meds I was taking.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 1999 Report Share Posted August 12, 1999 Elena, Just my opinion.... It would seem that an underlying condition would make your organs more susceptible to toxicity or further damage. However, I don't think the two necessarily go together. In other words a toxic reaction doesn't necessarily manifest itself because there is an underlying condition. I've found that a variety of fresh foods contain the best source of unadulterated elements which our bodies require.
