Take a load off your liver and live better
If I went on to explain the amount of work your liver has to do every day for you to live-r, you would be amazed. I’m focusing on our liver right now because I feel it’s a lost organ amongst the “cleansing” diets focusing on the colon. I’m all for that too, but let’s keep a whole minded approach and rotate our focus to other organs and systems of our bodies for support and strengthening throughout our year. Ok?
Let me mention a few functions of our liver pertaining to our weight management and health. A big, big job of our liver is too process toxins, endogenous, and dietary fats. Yes, that includes cholesterol, hormones, fats we eat, fats our bodies make naturally etc.. What do you think happens as we age, don’t eat right, smoke, drink alcohol, don’t exercise, eat processed junk food etc.? Our liver is our filtration or purification system which gets soooo tired it can’t keep up. Think about it. Why does cholesterol build up? Why would you start gaining more fat weight, feel tired, get more cellulite, a whole host of events that start happening? (please read my disclaimer on my site)
Live today to begin eating and drinking healthier for your liver. Read a few previous posts to start. And just for today flush your system with 64 oz of water. That’s all.
What get’s in the way of your liver doing it’s hundreds of functions? Alcohol, pharmaceutical drugs, processed foods, bad fats, food additives, do I need to say more? What supports your liver? Well obviously eliminating the above would be a place to start.
Well, my liver heard you so loudly and clearly it grumbled at me… We know your right and it’s all about getting started and keeping on top of it which is the hardest thing to do. Any comments on how to not stop doing what’s right?

Hi Bob,
And thanks for your comment. Now if I get your question I would suggest this to you.
If your liver is saying something to you, and your mind is saying something else, work on getting your mind in order and your body will follow. Sometimes writing down goals about your exercise and diet will support your achievement of goals. Just keep doing more of what’s right, more of what’s right and it will grow and you’ll wake up one day and go, wow! I’ve come a long way. Hope this helps!
