Dr. berg: The First natural treatment for liver health. It can take years to decades before you notice symptoms of a liver injury.
Initial signs of liver injury:
- Yellow eyes
- Yellow skin
- nausea
- Small red spots on the skin
- Lack of motivation
- vomit
The first natural treatment of liver toxicity:
N-acetylcysteine (NAC).
NAC can counteract various toxicities:
- Eliminate hangovers and reduce alcohol damage to the liver
- Counterbalance the harm of smoking
- You get a toxic solvent on your skin and it ends up in your liver
- Counteract the poison of ibuprofen
- Toxic chemicals from chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and environmental chemicals (including herbicides, insecticides, fungicides)
NAC Benefits:
It is a key nutrient for glutathione supplementation.
Glutathione is a potent antioxidant that helps fight free radical damage.
Promote the first and second stages of liver detoxification.
The first and second stages of detoxification can turn fat-soluble poisons into water-soluble harmless particles.
Helps liver tissue regenerate
Reduce or prevent liver cell suicide
I especially recommend NAC if you take drugs, drink alcohol, smoke, or are exposed to any poisons.
Boost NAC for more effect Eat:
- Always eat NAC on an empty stomach
- Take it multiple times a day
- Also take vitamin C and selenium
- When eating NAC, make your next meal high in protein
- Eat cruciferous vegetables
dr berg on: Glutathione.
It is the main antioxidant of all cells.
Glutathione action:
- Antiheavy metal toxin
- Reduce free radical damage
- Reduce body oxidation
Your body makes glutathione! Take supplements only if you are poisoned by painkillers, which depletes glutathione and causes liver damage.
The supplement is called NAC(N-acetylcysteine), which is the raw material for glutathione.
Glutathione deficiency symptoms:
- Sleep problem
- Be in a muddle
- fatigued
- Poor mood, depression, anxiety
Glutathione deficiency causes:
- Take a drink
- Very low calorie diet
- hyperkinesis
- Vegan diet
- Eat too little protein
- Has a mutation in the folate metabolism gene
- Eating too many artificial folic acid supplements
Ways to increase glutathione without taking supplements:
- Eat enough Glycine (offal, chicken and fish skin, big bone broth and gelatin)
- Make sure to eat enough natural group B, folic acid, and avoid synthetic Group B. (Meat contains B12, eating animal offal, and dark green vegetables contain folic acid)
- Vitamin C(raw sauerkraut, green leafy vegetables)
- Get enough sleep
- Don’t overdo it (high intensity exercise 2 times a week is fine)
- Reduce stress (stress reliever herbs, walking, listening to music, physical work, etc.)
- Eat plenty of protein and calories.
- Increase the carbohydrate to 50 grams per day.
- Eat more cruciferous vegetables.
- Eat seafood and supplement with trace minerals such as zinc and selenium.
