I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice. I am interested in detoxifying my liver. The problem all started many years ago. I was made to take a smorgasbord of psychiatric drugs when I was younger (age 14-17). Soon after I turned 17 my digestion went speedily downhill and since then I have not seemed to gain any fat or muscle (105lbs) and my liver oftentimes is in a lot of pain. I have other problems stemming from this. The doctors do not give an answer as to the problem and deny that excessive pills could have anything to do with it. FYI some of the pills I was forced to take were: Effexor, Paxil, Prozac, and even Lithium, plus a couple others I can’t remember the names of.
I have now changed my diet completely. I am planning to try the coffee enema and soon the liver flush. I’m sure these should do the trick. What else do you suggest? Has anyone else had this same problem? No one I know can relate of course because I have had a very special life. Thank you for your replies.
I personally did not have your problem but I know of several people who have had similar problems. My suggestion beside the change in diet is to do a bowel cleanse followed by a 5 to 7 days of stone softening protocol with coffee enemas then a liver flush.
Please read my blog titled “My challenge” link below.
Thank you Propaul. Do you know what those people who had a similar problem were diagnosed as? What bowel cleanse would you recomend that is not particularly dehabilitating? I work regularly and get up at 4:30am. I still want one that is effective though.
Hi annemariewhit - Good for you for deciding to detox your liver, and for changing your diet! I'm assuming you now eat a healthy, high-fiber diet. Is that the case?
I agree with Propaul said about doing a Bowel Cleanse . Detoxing the liver causes it to dump old toxins into the colon and bloodstream. Because of this, it works better if one does colon cleansing, then kidney cleansing before detoxing the liver. You can read about this in "The Detox Book" by Bruce Fife, ND.
Also, expect some cleansing reactions and possibly some healing crises when your body starts detoxing and releasing the old drugs you used to take. There may be times when you feel worse before you feel better during detox.
I've had good results using Perfect Seven. You might want to ask others about their experiences with it and other fiber bulking agents. Look for one that contains psyllium husks. I've also had excellent results getting colonics. To learn more about colon cleansing, read "Dr. Jensen's Guide to Better Bowel Care" by Dr. Bernard Jensen .
It's possible that the drugs you took have no long term effects but many alternative health professionals have found that they can be contaminated with pollutants which can cause lasting problems. Some of these pollutants are verry sticky and difficult to get out of your body so it may require several different detox protocols, liver cleansing, kidney cleansing, diet changes and protecting yourself from pollutants in our food or environment.
Sometimes when we go through a bad experience we tend to think that our problems started with that event. You might want to think back and view your life as a whole - especially ask what triggered your psychriatic problems. Recently Drs have come to realize that most psycological problems are a result of imbalances in the chemistry of the body. What caused that unbalance? It was probably not some outward problem, but some inner imbalance in your metabolism. One possibility is gluten sensitivity. A gluten free diet may help you as much as the detox and cleanses you are planning to do. It may help you to look at some of the Celiac Disease and Gluten intolerance forums and see their experiences are similar to yours.
Thank you for your reply. I actually don't have any mental problems right now and I'm not sure that I actually did at the time. I had behavioural problems. I was defiant and dissatisfied. I have in fact started avoiding gluten just because I heard that it is not particularly healthy. I do have some symptoms similar to crohns or celiac, but not quite the same as each one.
I am sorry, I did not mean to imply that you were having the problems you wrote about now. I did mean to suggest that when a person goes through a bad time in their life there might well have been some metabolic imbalance that resulted in unusual behavior. I probably go overboard in suggesting to people that they be tested for gluten sensitivity/intolerance but so many people don't know they have this problem and Drs are just learning to diagnose it. And diagnosis is not easy as the symptons vary from person to person and the current diagnostic tests are at best 70% reliable. I've had Celiac Disease almost all my life and wasn't diagnosed until I was 70. And it is not that there is something wrong with us Celiacs it is only that something is wrong with our diet. How I wish that somebody had suggested to me that I might have had a problem with gluten, how different and healthier my life might have been.
I'm not offended, don't worry. I just know that all my health problems started with the pills, because i was fine until I started taking them. When I took the pills I actually did not have any changes in my mental state at all. I think that i was made to take the pills because of bad behaviour and a faillure to be compliant.
