Guest guest Posted April 2, 2006 Report Posted April 2, 2006 There is a book I highly recommend called Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Balch and Phyllis Balch. It is easy to read and use, and there is a list of helpful supplements, listed in order of importance (essential, very important, important, and helpful) plus they list herbs and helpful diet tips. Wonderful reference book, which at the moment I cannot find. I have company and stuff is put away and their luggage is everywhere.. I got my copy at Price Less, but i've seen it at Longs drugs and other drug stores and even supplement catalogs. Runs about $15 at discounters. Well worth it. darblly <darblly@...> wrote: My husband has been diagnosed with cirrohisis... I am looking for help as to where to go for ways to heal or repair the damage. He does not drink and is eating a low fat, high protein; low sodium; near vegetarian diet with lots of water and a detox tea. What else would be good? Quote

Drinking is the most common but Hep B and C can also cause it. Untreated Hepitius C can lead to liver cancer. The most important thing is to find out the cause. Colleen Quote
Guest guest Posted April 2, 2006 Report Posted April 2, 2006 Look into a parasite program as well as a liver flush regimen once the parasite program is completed. You should also supplement with liver-supporting herbs like milk thistle, dandelion root, etc. Ken -- Seeking Guidence My husband has been diagnosed with cirrohisis...

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2006 Report Posted April 2, 2006 I like the combo liver supplements like Planetary's Liver support with Bupleurum and Stone Free which has turmeric, marshmallow root, dandelion, milk thistle etc etc all in one tidy tablet. I've heard Burdock root too for liver discomfort. Parsley, artichoke, and alfalfa. Alfalfa may flush out medicines though, so if he's on meds better run that by the doctor.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2006 Report Posted April 3, 2006 I found my book. There are 4 pages dedicated to treating cirrhosis. The recommendations are really good, yes juicing, especially vegetable juice, include beets.. One thing that stands out is to avoid cod liver oil and limit fish intake to 2 servings a week. this includes salmon, blue fish and white fish. also eliminate milk, candy, animal products, most fats, processed foods, potato chips,salt, pepper, white rice, spicy and fried foods and stimulants such as coffee and colas. It mentions evening primrose oil (omega 6) is helpful. Cirrhosis is deadly, I'd follow this protocol closely. I lost my grandma to it after she got Hepatis B during surgery (blood tranfusion in the 50's). <lindae321@...> wrote: Juicing, drinking a lot of water, exercize regularly with moderation, do all the clarks cleanses, reduce stress, meditation, prayer, good luck, wrote: There is a book I highly recommend called Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Balch and Phyllis Balch.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Hi; I thought of something else which could help! Aloevera juice. get it at the healthfood store. the kind you have to refrigerate. No preservatives! Drink a 1/2 a cup daily in the morning before breakfast. read about it I am not a doctor. As says. take the load of your liver by avoiding toxins and things that are hard to digest. Try to do things that bring you peace the body heals better when there is happiness and hope for the future. Go to sleep early, before 10:00 pm the body restore itself the most between 10:00 and midnight. Try to walk in the sun daily. The sun and exercise help the liver work better and the inmune system too. No Alcohol!!!!! that is all I can think of now. good luck, ] <xander95608@...> wrote: I found my book.
