Re: liver support for detox

[Guest guest]

have you tried more Iodoral? do you take ATP cofactors?

Gracia

I've been having a lot of problems with bromide detox lately. I've been taking 50 mg iodoral since right after Christmas, but I'm still detoxing. I wondered if anyone has tried using turmeric to support the liver? I also have low cholesterol and I read that turmeric is supposed to help the liver and gallbladder. I think one of my detox issues is that my liver needs to be supported, especially after I had RAI last year.

Hi ~

I've not tried tumeric, but a great liver support product is Livaplex from Standard Process. With bromide detox going on I'm taking 3/day. The other product that really helps me is Sonne's #7, a liquid form of bentonite clay.

Hi ,

I use a medical drink supplement that contains Turmeric and it has

been pivotal in helping me get well; my naturopath recommended it and

I use it for detox/cleanse twice a year as well as daily maintenance.

Turmeric is primarily used as an anti-inflammatory.

It's called Metagenics UltraInflammx; it's great.

The best liver detox should include SILYMARIN along with tumeric.

Thanks ! I'm glad to hear your report on turmeric. I just started using

turmeric capsules today from Premier Research Labs. I'll check out that link,

too.

You can also get it (cheaply) from Penzey's spices. It is a great

food additive!

What about milk thistle or dandelion leaf to support the liver?

I have just formulated (along with a

master herbalist) two producs called LivaPure and ParaPure and am seeing great

results with clients. Detoxification is so important and I have written about

the necessity of it on this and other forums many times. Another

important cleanse to perform is for parasites. Parasites can literally

rob you of important nutrients. Some actually fool the body into thinking they

are a normal part of our tissues or organs. Other parasites secrete a fat that

impedes the immune response. Parasites also give off their own metabolic wastes

which are damaging to the immune system. Candida albicans, a fungus, secretes

an acid that can damage the mucosal lining of the digestive tract which then

allows the organism to puncture the intestinal wall and enter the bloodstream.

It is estimated that 90% of the population has parasites and/or fungal

infections.

One of the ingredients that I include in

LivaPure is Milk Thistle Seed. There are several reasons to use

the milk thistle seed rather than silymarin extract. Using the whole herb is

recommended as often it will have a more balanced effect. The milk thistle

extract silymarin, for instance, has proven useful in treating liver disease.

However, the main drawback to using silymarin is that, if a healthcare

professional prescribes other drugs, such as steroids, silymarin can interfere

with the liver's ability to detoxify them. Milk thistle seed has the same

healing effect on the liver without interfering with the organ's ability to

detoxify drugs or environmental chemicals. It also has a side benefit of

normalizing blood lipids as the liver heals.

While Turmeric is good with

inflammation, what you want to do with liver cleansing is to truly cleanse the

liver. Turmeric will increase bile which will supposedly help with cleansing

but it is not a great liver cleanser by itself as it’s main properties

are for inflammation. Fringetree Bark will do the same thing but has the added

benefit of cleansing and supporting the liver and gallbladder. LivaPure

also contains Wildcrafted Chanca Piedra which helps to break down liver stones.

This is an important herb. I suggest mixing the LivaPure with 1 gallon of

organic apple juice and drinking four 8-ounce glasses daily between meals for

four days. To complete the cleanse it is necessary to drink an olive oil and

grapefruit mixture on day 5. This is effective and beneficial liver/gallbladder

cleansing.

All of the products that I formulate use

all organic herbs and when organic is not available, wildcrafted herbs are used

and I do not use herbs from China.

The ingredient list for LivaPure is: Organic

Milk Thistle seed, Wildcrafted Chanca Piedra, Organic Fringetree bark, Organic

Dandelion root, Organic Nettles root, Organic Marshmallow root, Organic Yellow

Dock root, Organic Marshmallow leaf, Organic Dandelion leaf, Organic Nettles

leaf, Organic Barberry root bark, Organic Blue Flag.

Ingredient list for ParaPure (contains same ingredients that Dr. Hulda

recommends) is: Organic Black Walnut Hull, English Lavender Blossom, Orange

Peel, Clove, Garlic clove, Male Fern Root, Wormwood Root, Organic Turmeric

Root, Organic Yellow Dock Root.

Being a cancer survivor, I personally understand

the extreme importance of cleansing. It is necessary and important to

support the body in health and well-being. Many people get on vitamins,

supplements, etc. using them like drugs and wonder why they do not experience

results – often it is because the body is too toxic and absorption is

hampered. It’s like putting new oil into a car without first

draining out the old oil. I was fortunate enough to have as my doctor (also interned

under him for three years) one who understood the importance of cleansing and

detoxifng the body – especially a body that is suffering from disease.

You can read more about LivaPure and ParaPure at: http://www.oasisadvancedwellness.com/products/detoxification-cleansing-bowel.html

The individual product pages have not been indexed by Google yet as we

have been doing in-house trials and have just now started to offer the products

to the public.

All of this is just more information to

add to your files. There are some good liver and parasite cleanses out

there, of course, but because I have a lot of experience with cleansing and

detoxification methods I wanted to offer my OAW clients products of which I

knew exactly how they were made and under what circumstances. Many think

that a supplement is a supplement, a vitamin a vitamin, but this is just not

the case. I do a lot of product research and along with the good products

there are a lot of products that contain toxic fillers and binders and added

ingredients which can actually make the body more toxic. This doesn’t

have to be, but indicates that the manufacturer is more interested in making

more money by including very cheap ingredients.

If any of you want to try either of these cleanses I will give a 10% discount

to the iodine group only (please do not pass this on to other groups) through

Sunday July 20, 2008 midnight CDT.

To get 10% off use DISCOUNT10 as the

coupon code.

Be Well

Also as far as the turmeric goes...be careful of sources...since it is good at capturing lead inferior brands will actually contain lead much in the same way that inferior chlorella or cilantro will contain mercury.

Another thought...I was watching a documentary recently on India where much of

it is grown, and it was making a very strong point

about the lack of water, drinking water over there. It is severe. It made me

wonder then if they have no clean water to drink, just

what are they watering their crops with. I stopped ordering turmeric since

then.-Sanr

This is interesting, Gracia. I've worked my way up to 50 mg and am still detoxing every morning. Wouldn't more Iodorol just make that worse?

Thanks.
