Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Posted June 14, 2006 Hi Willem, This was Equinox Liver Cleanse, and I remember being prescribed twice the recommended dosage (some in the morning, some in the late afternoon) by my holistic doc at the time. The primary ingredient was milk thistle--definitely the key to the castle--and it did have some other herbs in it as well including beet root and dandelion root. Check it out here: http://www.equinox-products.com/masterformulas.htm I remember being on this for two weeks intensively--starting to feel slightly nauseaus by around day 7 or 8, then several days later I woke up and had to run to the bathroom (where I practically lived for about three days). At this point, I stopped taking the caps (obviously) and called my doc, who just said to let it run its course. Afterward, most of my food intolerances were a thing of the past--even the really bad ones like wheat and such. I felt like I had been let out of the cage. My holistic doc at the time then tested me and told me that not only my liver had been cleansed, but that my gallbladder had also expelled stuff as well (this was some of the bright green stuff). Even blood tests showed my liver enzymes and such had returned to normal soon afterward, after having abnormal readings for quite a while. I should also mention that this treatment was given to me after I'd had a bunch of NAET balancing treatments and thus my system was strong enough to withstand it. Alison :-) Digest Number 3247 4.

I'm presently only taking milk thistle at ten days on ten days off. This method works best for most herbs apparently. I'm finding I am benefiting from milk thistle. I would love to have a complete rotorouter of my liver though. Willem Alison Lorraine wrote: > > I have to second this!
