[Guest guest]

Have you tried taking dandelion root for your dark

eyes.

It cleared mine up. I had a yellow cast on my

cheek

bones and that cleared up too. My eye whites were

not

yellow though.

I am reading through a book and it mentioned

different

things that is very good for the liver

function.

" The liver is responsible for removing toxins that can

interfere with

nervous system functioning, digestive processing, heart

function

and circulation. jExcess fat, chemicals, intoxicants

and refined or

processed food disrupt liver processing. Anger,

nervous tension,

mood swings and depression, skin problems, gall bladder

problems,

candida, menstrual and menopausal problems can

result from poor

liver function. The following dietary suggestion can

hepatitis.

food.
