Detoxify with Milk Thistle

Prescription and recreatiional drugs, cigarette smoke, large amounts of alcohol, envirnomental toxins, hormones in food, diets high in sugars and fats, and even anger and stress can tax and damage the liver!

The liver is the body's filtration plant, cleansing the blood of toxins and processing them for quick removal; it is a storage warehouse for wastes and nutrients; it is also a factory that produces cholsterol, a fat that, in the right kinds and amounts, is an essential part of the balanced operation of the body.

Fortunately, there are natural ways to help cleanse the liver of toxins and revitalize it. Milk thistle is an herb whose active ingredient protects the liver cells from harmful free radicals that can build up in the body as a result of exposure to stress and exposure to toxins.

It can be used (with Dandelion as sold by Blood-Link) to reduce the toxin load from prescription drugs and help the pharmaceuticals work more effectively. It works well for patients on chemotherapy to deal with the toxic drugs, menopausal women to treat hot flashes, for gallstones, and many digestive complaints. It works gently, and can be taken long term with no side effects.

Any time there is an accute or chronic problem in the body, the liver is usually involved because of its multiple roles. If the liver functions well, our overall health benefits!
