Even using these methods alone will help you maintain your liver. You can also use hepatoprotectors. This group of drugs cleanses and restores the cellular structure of the liver.
But there is also a way to completely cleanse the liver, which we will now talk about. It consists of four stages, and its total duration will be approximately two weeks.
Preparation for liver cleanse (duration 3 to 5 days)
Like anything else, a liver cleanse should start with preparation. At this stage, it is necessary to completely cleanse the intestinal tract, using mild laxatives, preferably of a plant nature. For example, it can be broths of buckthorn, which should be consumed once a day before going to bed. You can also use a mixture of olive oil (two tablespoons) and lemon juice (half a fruit). It should be taken once or twice a day. It is also advisable to connect cardio loads at this stage. At the same time, it is quite enough to practice for half an hour every day.
Start cleaning (duration 3 to 5 days)
At this stage of the process, you need to switch to an appropriate diet in order to create an easy regime for the liver and the pathways for excreting bile. To do this, you need to do the following:
- The total energy value of the diet should be reduced by 30 percent in comparison with the usual one.
- During the day, you must eat at least four times.
- It is necessary to remove from the nutrition program all foods that burden the liver, for example, chocolate, mayonnaise, broths, coffee, peppers, etc.
- Eat vegetables, fruits, boiled meat, still mineral water, greens. Before each meal, about a quarter of an hour before that, you need to take Heptral or another drug of the class of hepatoprotectors.
- Take Enterosgel once a day by diluting a tablespoon of the product in a glass of warm water.
Liver cleansing (duration 1 day)
At this stage of the process, you should perform a tubing with mineral water and herbal choleretic agents. It is also necessary to eat only plant foods. The best option is a dish made from chopped apples, carrots, cabbage (can be replaced with lettuce), dried apricots and prunes. Vegetable oil should be used as a dressing.
This mixture should be consumed four times throughout the day. If you have a strong feeling of hunger, then you can eat a banana or watermelon. After the third intake of the mixture, it is necessary to start the tubing. Non-carbonated mineral water in the amount of one glass should be drunk in small sips.
After that, drink (also in small sips) the decoction of choleretic herbs prepared the day before. For the broth, immortelle, kidney tea or tansy are suitable. Choose one plant of your choice. Then you need to lie in the embryo position on a warm heating pad located under the right hypochondrium. The temperature of the heating pad should be about 55 degrees.
After 20 minutes or half an hour, repeat the procedure with mineral water and a decoction of herbs and lie down again on the heating pad for 30 minutes.
Final cleaning stage (duration 3 days)
Now you need to repeat all, without exception, the procedures used in the first three days of cleaning. This completes the cleansing process.
You may have more than one test to find out the results of this procedure, although this is not required. Such a procedure should be carried out several times a year, focusing on the state of your health. As you have already noticed, there is nothing complicated here, you just need patience and desire. But this will allow your liver to work smoothly and perform its function efficiently.
