Lemon Juice Liver Cleanse

The liver is a crucial organ with a wide variety of functions. It breaks down proteins and biochemicals to aid in the digestion process. It plays a role in metabolism and rids the body of dead red blood cells. Because everything that is ingested flows through the liver, detoxifying this important organ is extremely important. Cleansing the liver will also eliminate gallstones. Lemon juice is an incredibly efficient, natural way to detoxify the liver.

Gallstones

• Gallstones are balls of calcified bile and are usually surrounding parasites or harmful bacteria. Because they are extremely porous, they are susceptible to further infection. The human body has difficulty ridding itself of gallstones. A lemon juice cleanse will flush out gallstones quickly. To administer the cleanse, mix the juice from one lemon with equal parts olive oil and Epsom salts. If you can't stomach the idea of taking these cleanse ingredients alone, mix them in a tall glass of water and drink quickly. Repeat two times: once in the morning and once at night. The days before and after the cleanse, follow a non-fat diet. Since the bile is not being used to break up fat, it will build up. The added pressure will force out the stones.

Lemon Water

• To maintain a clean liver or for a more regular cleanse, add pure, freshly squeezed juice of one lemon to a glass of water and drink with meals. This will assist the stomach in digesting the food and will not allow undigested food to enter the bloodstream. This can be done with every meal to keep the stomach and liver cleansed continually.
