Re: Anyone else itch underneath their skin/gums...) LIVER?

[Guest guest]

I just read this weekend, that in general itchy skin can be caused

by liver problems or inflamation. If you have been treated with

antifungals or been taking anything hard on your liver. Lots of

things affect your liver including too much medicine or too many

supplements, even some herbal teas. You might read up on liver

inflamation if that continues. Remedy is to examine everything you

are taking. If you started something new recently, experiment by

withdrawing it, or stop everything you are taking that is 'non

essential' and see if itching goes away. If it does go away then

add supplements back in you want to take, one at a time. Take each

one for awhile before adding another one back in. I got a burning

rash from Tylenol even though I was not overdosing it. I stopped

the Tylenol and rash started to disappear right away. I read that

effective dose of Tylenol is very close to overdose for liver.

itch like crazy when I go into the worst moldy room, and for days

Anyone else have this?

I read that if liver is overwhelmed with 'things to do' (and I know

what that is like!), it's stops doing a good job and leaves things in

the blood that normally it would filter out, toxins, bile salts, etc,

and these things in the blood cause itching. Of course not all

itching can be blamed on the liver because there are simpler

reasons, 'dry skin', etc However those people who have had chronic

illness or been on alot of medicine, taken antifungals, been on a lot

of supplements, more likely could be having itching skin due to

overloaded liver or toxin liver or drug induced liver problems.

not good for me... usually after breaking down for Taco Bell on rare

occasion for example, or eating too much dairy. It clears right up a

day or two
