Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I did a " gentle " liver cleanse that my Naturopath gave me. I have to do this from memory, and it was a long time ago, but it was something like this: Olive oil - I want to say 1/4 cup? About 1 Grapefruit (that is what I used because of candida, but there was also grape juice and another option, I think orange) About 1/2 a lemon 2 garlic cloves a dash of cayenne (this is optional, but beneficial) Drink on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning. You may have D within a couple hours. She told me to start with 1/4 a dose because I was so sensitive at the time. Oh, and put off actual breakfast for a couple hours. I am pretty sure that is it. My hubby thought it was disgusting, but I thought it made a good salad dressing. Maybe not the best breakfast, but it works! > > Hi everyone, > > does anyone have a recipe for an SCD-legal liver cleanse? I read the recent article on the small intestine (Jon) which talked about liver cleanses, but he seems to use stuff that is not SCD-legal. I'd like to explore that route before considering surgery. > > Thanks > > > IBS/IBD - 40 years > SCD 3 months > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Hey everyone - thanks so much! I am determined to avoid gall bladder surgery and suspect that a lot of the problem is actually liver stress, so if this helps my gall bladder as well, then so much the better! I sympathise hugely with everyone that has CD or UC, it sounds horrendous. Having gone to countless doctors/alternative therapists and spent thousands of dollars trying to find out what's wrong, I wish there was a way to get a diagnosis to hang my hat on (the latest opinion is " Leaky Gut " ). Having said that, being told I have to have my gall bladder removed, didn't do it for me, so I thank my lucky stars that I don't have anything serious. Thanks for all the support - the forum is a life-saver! IBS/IBD - 40 years SCD 3 months > > > > Hi everyone, > > > > does anyone have a recipe for an SCD-legal liver cleanse?

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 , Beet juice and coffee enemas are good for liver/gallbladder health. Just google 'em and you'll find lots of information. From everything I've read, avoid the surgery at all costs. I know there are a few people who have posted here that their digestive system has never been the same after having their gallbladder removed. Good luck, Ellen > > Hi everyone, > > does anyone have a recipe for an SCD-legal liver cleanse?
