Liver detox

[CBann]

Hi all,

Hope you have all had a good bank holiday. I just wanted to get people's views on the importance of a liver detox. Seen it in a couple of books now, both of which have quite intense protocols. Also wanted to know if anyone has done one? What they did! And whether they found it worthwhile?

Thanks

The kind where you drink a bunch of things and start passing weird clumps? Those seem very dubious to me and possibly unsafe. The people promoting them generally don't have much understanding or proof of what they're doing. I think just a good diet that is kind to liver health is the way to go.

Haha, no I think it would have to be quite a gentle detox. I should of said I've seen them in a couple of books on the subject of thyroid/hashimoto

What does it consist of?

Couldn't agree more.

It's a scam to relieve you of your money! There is no evidence to prove it does any good, it could end up harming you. Your liver is perfectly capable of doing it's job and doesn't need any help. You just need to eat well,exercise,don't smoke and limit alcohol. Simples!
