I just found out that I have fat deposits on my Liver. I was wondering what I can do to have my Liver cleansed? I have heard of people taking differents herbs to help with cleansing it. I've heard they do a great job of it. Do any of you know what I'm talking about? Will it also clean up the fat as well?

Holland- You can do a liver cleanse and then also take Milk Thistle for the Liver. There are a few different herbs that you can take. I will post them when I find the paper I wrote them down on. My dad was on several different herbs for the liver because he was waiting for a liver transplant. I will try to find the paper and then post the ones he was on.
I forgot to add that another thing you could buy that is really good that we had my Dad on was Liv 52. It doesn't cost much and you can order it right online, if your health store doesn't care it. You should probaly do a cleanse first to get all the toxins out and then start taking the herbs daily, but you also need to really be careful what you eat.
Thanks so much for the info!!! I went for my blood test on Fri and hope to have the results back soon. I really hope I don't need to have a Liver Biopsy!!!
I know I have not had much of an appitite the last few days. It seems whatever I eat makes me sick!!! So I'm just staying away from it a little. I will have to try the veggies and fruits. Hopefully making a change like that will help!
Wendy if you find the info on the Liver cleansing please do post it. I would really like to do that!!

Holland- There are several different Liver Detox you can buy or make yourself. Here is a site that you can buy a Liver Detox Kit and has some info on that page about the Liver and also some herbs you can take to help the Liver, it is: www.health-n-energy.com/liverdetox.htm
You can also make a Liver Detox yourself and drink it, there are several different recipes for that, if your interested in doing that, alot more cheaper then buying one of the Liver Detox Kits. You can do a 3 day juice fast once every month, to help cleanse the Liver drink beet juice & carrot juice. Make sure your eating healthy with lots of fruits and veggies and if you can get organic. If you are still eating meat make sure it is no more then 2 to 3 ounces. After you do a Liver Detox start taking the herbs it really will help. Milk Thistle helps rebuild the Liver and another good thing to take is Lecithin take 1 tbsp. before meals or you can just get it in capsules which is easier but this prevents fat build up on the Liver.
Holland- Here are some of the recipes that you can make at home and try out, if your interested in doing it that way.
Liver Detox:
Good Breakfast drink and probaly the best Liver Cleansing Tonic
1 carrot
1/2 beetroot
1 stick of celery
1 cucumber
Try to get organic vegetables, but if you can't just wash very good. Peel and dice the vegetables and pass them through a juicer, if you don't have a juicer, then just put them in a blender until they are blended very well. Drink within about 20 minutes.
Here is another one:
Liver Detox
Drink in the morning for 10 days
Ingredients:
1/2 cup warm water
2 tbsp. pure lemon juice
1 tbsp. of olive oil
1 tbsp. black strap molasses
some cayenne pepper
stir everything very well until it is all mixed together and drink.
Fatty liver can be caused by insulin resistance, so anything you do to manage insulin resistance will help.
Also, you may find Dr Sandra Cabot's 'liver cleansing diet' book helpful. She also has some good info on this site: http://www.liverdoctor.com/Section4/fattylivertrial.asp

I havent read all the posts but it sounds to me like a possible fatty liver.... some people who are overweight fall into this category. Generally the number one fighter is weight loss and over time the liver then continues to heal. Kat has some good links in her post I would check them out. I believe NAFLD stands for Non-Alcoholic Liver disease...don't let the name scare you the fact that it's non alcoholic is a very good thing it is totally treatable! Let me know how the liver cleanse works been thinking about something like that myself. GL
