Quite a few companies today are selling supplements and wonder herbs they say will work miracles to detoxify your body. Yet for many years a simple, easy regimen has been known among natural health practitioners and those in the Eastern disciplines who seek total body harmony. Simply focusing on the one organ that governs the major cleansing of bodily poisons serves to cleanse the entire body. To achieve better digestion, sleep, and gain more energy and stamina, just add some simple foods to your diet that are known to work hard assisting your body’s natural filter: the liver.

Attaining a natural balance

For centuries, the Eastern Masters have used various methods to attain the ultimate balance between the physical body, mind, and spirit. Attaining the pinnacle of personal balance cannot be achieved if the body is poisoned by toxins in the organs and bloodstream. Purity of thought and meditation can only be achieved when the body itself is functioning properly and not under chronic stress.

Western medicine and medical researchers have yet to understand the full ramifications of the balanced triad of mind, body and spirit. Together, when working in unison as designed, the individual can attain great physical strength and endurance, greater cognitive focus and insight, deep and revelatory meditation, and a oneness with the universal Truths.

A person of average intelligence, free of poisons in the body, can often think more clearly than a genius that is filled with toxins.

The body must balance with the mind and spirit

That’s because certain foods can harm the body, impair its functions, eventually kill it. Other foods work with the body augmenting its natural biological functions and in doing so assisting in uplifting the spirit and clarifying the mind.

Information about the kind of foods that heal, cleanse and assist can be found on many natural health websites. But each journey begins with the all-important first step. The first step towards physical balance and detoxification starts with the liver. The foods below should be added to the diet and eaten regularly.

Purifying foods that purify the body

Dozens of food exist that help to purify the body. The best for cleansing the liver are (in order of efficacy):

Beets: This root vegetable has been known to strengthen the liver, aid its function and keep it working properly. Beets are a natural source of betaine that works to rid the organ of toxic build-up and thins the bile produced by the liver. In turn, that promotes healthy bowel movements and lays the foundation for good digestion.

Beets also have a very anti-inflammatory effect on the body as a whole, promote healthy blood vessels, and fight indigestion.

Beet soup eaten daily may even help reduce or reverse varicose veins.

The easiest way to include beets in the diet is to eat beet soup (also called borscht) several times weekly.

Turmeric: A member of the ginger family, turmeric is plentiful in South Asia and has been used as a healing spice for thousands of years. It is also a staple spice of many Indian foods and the basis for certain curries.

Like beets, turmeric has strong anti-inflammatory properties. Tumeric can work wonders assisting the liver to rid itself of toxins. The gallbladder is also strengthened by turmeric in the diet. Recently, advanced medical research has shown that turmeric and its component curcumin may help reduce the risk of certain cancers.

Avocados: A vegetable high in healthy fat, the avocado has been used for centuries as a healing food by MesoAmerican shamans.

Although its healing properties are many and the benefits too numerous to list here, the avocado is only surpassed by beets and turmeric when it comes to helping to heal and boost the efficiency of the liver. Because it’s high in glutathione-producing compounds, this food can significantly help cleanse the liver. Adding it regularly to salads is one of the easiest ways to include it in the diet.

Garlic: This food is on the list specifically because garlic has triggers that stimulate the liver’s enzymes and promote detoxification. Garlic achieves this through the multiple sulfur compounds it contains. Garlic also helps to protect the liver from damage because it contains two powerful allies: selenium and allicin. Both have been proved to be very beneficial to liver health.

Lemons and limes: The key to efficient liver detoxification is the ability to produce enzymes in significant quantities. Both lemons and limes are very high in vitamin C and potassium. They help to regulate the body’s natural bio-function. In conjunction with the other foods listed above, these two citrus fruits create a synergistic relationships and help to supercharge the liver toward better health and optimum functioning. Adding the juice of either whole fruit to a glass of water will help energize the liver healing and detoxifying process.

Once the liver is in balance, the body will attain a more even keel and meditation and thinking will become richer experiences.

      Stop your “toxin” nonsense. Nice try in calling up the liver to support your bs altie claims. How long are people going to buy into this unscientific stupidity?

    • DaveB

      I had chronic fatigue and chronic irritability. I did 3 liver cleanses to flush out the cholesterol and other toxins that had built up in my liver blocking the bile ducts which was preventing my liver from functioning properly.

      I no longer have chronic fatigue nor irritability.

      Try water-only fasting. I did this for 29 days. It works!

      I would suggest shorter fasts first. As you extend your fasts, you will find you body breaking down fats that have been stored for many years, most likely. It will be a wild ride as those toxins clear your system.

      Monsanto is killing everyone now – so detox??

    • TimOsman

      Dumbass,
      Water only fasting = mal nutrition which causes fat to store because brain goes into conservative mode.

      I concur with this article, i’m drinking lemon RO water right now to balance my PH after eating acidic picnic American Food

    • Anonymous

      @ Anonymous at 4:43. Relax there paranoid parrot. If nature is the best healer then what the hell are antibiotics? Get real dude.

      @TimOsman You started off well and went off into unscientific woo. The body balances its own Ph between 7.35- 7.45. ALWAYS. The only time the Ph is off is during a life-threatening medical emergency and if you were in that situation, you’d either be dead or in a hospital. Also, how does drinking an acidic liquid cause a higher alkalinity in the body? Come on, it doesn’t stand up to reason. I challenge you to look up what I said and educate yourself.

    • anyoneamongUS

      anony who???

    • bicycledays

      TimOsman,

      Water fasting is one of the best things you can do. It doesn’t cause malnutrition. It’s recommended for better health. Fasting is even mention in The Bible. Calorie restriction (eating less) is one of the best things you can do, as people who eat less live longer. This is a statistical fact. Also, fasting has cured many people of diseases and is a natural way to cleanse the body.

      I suggest you read some articles about the benefits of fasting. Also, read “Your Body’s Many Cries for Water”.

      Kris Kemp, the Bible is full of bs and nonsense and you know that. Water fasting absolutely causes malnutrition and it is not recommended. I’d love to see your sources on that claim. You REPUTABLE sources. Fasting will not cure people of disease. Do you care to elaborate on which disease in particular or did you thing people would buy this at face value?

      How about Iboga? Iboga can detox you from mercury, candida, herpes, all these “incurable” toxins and microbes. It honestly cured my depression and saved my life. Research it, it’s usually just a one -time treatment…unfortunately that’s not profitable for the pharma industry

    • whitebear

      Try not to give any credit to the humans here ignorantly asserting personal problems with good sense.

      Find a Holistic Practitioner in your area that you’re comfortable with before attempting something beyond a simple fast. This, meaning anything beyond a few days. And NO, water fasting is not the demon. BUT you really should use pure water. If the only water you have is from a Closed Loop system such as is found in any large city, WAIT until you can use purified water. Chlorine by-products, pesticides, pharmaceuticals and a host of undesirable substances are inherently present in closed loop systems.

      “TOXINS” DO NOT EXIST. Write that down.

    • Sniper13x

      This anon clown is right, toxins don’t exists and germs don’t exist either, they are evil spirits that need to be exorcised out of your body. Don’t you guys know science? Geez…

    • electra111

      To anonymous who doubted drinking lemon to balance ph , the acidic of lemon, when it reacts with the acid of the body , creates and alkaline ash rather then an acidic one. Sounds weird but true. The bodies acid/alkaline balance goes off when you continually eat acidic unhealthy foods. These foods prevent the body from completing it’s usual mechanisms and that’s why illness springs from this acidic body environment. I hope this clears up any confusion. Also , on the topic of Antibiotics- in natural form they do not harm the body such as cinnamon. In tablet form they deplete the bodies own bacteria and create other disease/imbalance. The point is most western medicine only targets symptoms rather then cause. Take care of your machine and it will work correctly.

    • Anonymous

      You people are seriously deranged. If acid from a lemon causes “alkaline ash” (uh, no dude), why would the body become acidic by eating acidic food?? You just contradicted yourself. That’s not true in the least! And can you specify precisely what mysterious “imbalance” you’re talking about? I bet you can’t. Cinnamon? Really? Don’t be ridiculous. You KNOW that isn’t true.

      And the other genius… there are no “toxins” you buffoon. Really, try getting a decent education. As always, I challenge anyone here to simply name one single “toxin.” You can’t do it. It’s fictional. Make believe.

      Poisons that damage the liver are primarily from drugs, or from self-created intestinal toxins. Laxatives are a common cause of ingredients that stress the liver, while adding bran for bulk and drinking more liquids usually solves the elimination problem.

      The other group of poisons (those generated in the small and large intestines) which occur from a combination of poor diet, too many refined foods, especially carbohydrates, insufficient digestive enzymes resulting in malabsorption and malnutrition and the stress of incompletely” burned” foodstuffs, are those the individual can take responsibility to correct. Liver structure also disintegrates when insufficient oxygen occurs; therefore the lungs should be kept free of mucous toxins and germs, to enable air to better penetrate the lung air sacs and enter the bloodstream to find its way to the liver. Sufficient vitamins C and A are important in maintaining this structure, strengthened by the mineral sand trace minerals, including zinc, which is known to be required in some 80 enzyme systems.

      When the liver is clogged up with toxins, blood from the portal vein cannot enter, and it becomes swollen and enlarged, resulting in congestion of all glands, muscles, joints and body structures. This is due to the portal hypertension that blocks the return of blood on time, from the veins. Arteries carry blood away from the heart; veins carry blood back to the heart.

      The heart may pump blood all over the body through the arteries, but a liver congested with toxins, causing portal hypertension, may not permit the blood to flow back to the heart from any group of organs, or any tissue anywhere in the body. This creates a stifling condition.

      The colon (another important channel of detoxification) is intimately related to liver function. When a colon is twisted, kinked, spastic and bloated, food is held back so long that it literally spoils or rots, thereby generating numerous kinds of poisons and supplying a friendly base for unfriendly bacteria.

      Streams of poisons pour into the portal vein from toxic ascending, descending and transverse colons, going directly up into the liver. From the liver, they flow into the blood vessel, into the heart. Once toxins enter the heart, they are pumped and carried all over the body where they lodge into joints, muscles, nerves, glands, the brain and every vital organs. If permitted to remain, they maybe the unrecognized but direct cause of hundreds of eventually diagnosed “diseases” all because food was permitted to remain too long in the small intestine and the colon.

      Other environmental toxins that can end up affecting the liver include:

      1. Exposure to detergents, solvents, cleaning fluids, adhesives and fumes from paint, gasoline or automobile is practically unavoidable

      2. Insecticides including the ones in your grocery store that spray your fruits and vegetables to keep bugs away

      3. Hormones, steroids and antibiotics you get by eating all non-organic meat, poultry, diary and even fish

      4. Agricultural chemical contaminants such as pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and growth hormones which are sprayed during crop production

      5. Food additives, including nitrates, food dyes and preservatives. Over 7800 man-made chemicals are approved for use in food processing

      If these substances are not eliminated, they will build up, clog you up, drag you down and could seriously damage your health. Your liver plays a valuable role in eliminating toxins and processing everything that goes in your body.

      If your liver gets overloaded, toxins begin circulating in your blood and, besides making you feel tired and sluggish, those toxins can damage your organs and glands, cause increased inflammation in your body, cause headaches, cause weight gain, and generally make you feel bad.

    • Authentica

      A toxin is defined as something potentially poisonous or harmful to the body of a living system or being. So, anonymous you are saying there is no such thing as a poisonous or harmful – i.e. toxic substance or material to the human body? So cigarette smokers get cancer because why?

      And the other posters are correct – Lemon is helpful to enhance the system because although it’s acidic, it is Nature’s Special Recipe with inherent balance unlike pharma drugs, so it gently cleanses the system, thereby removing waste which breeds an acidic inner environment. You obviously are not a fan of Natural Medicine and Nature Cure, so you won’t change your opinions, nor will you do any more research.. But for others with a more open mind don’t let the black & white bandaid-cure allopathic crowd deter you from exploring where all drugs come from originally anyway – Mother Nature!

    • Authentica

      Excellent info Adam Strange thank you.

    • Anonymous

      Yeah Adam Strange, great job on the gish gallop. You are literally “not even wrong.” Your response is so far from truth that it’s this tangled web of untruths and absurd claims spanning from here to Sirius B. You clearly lack even the most basic understanding of chemistry and human physiology. My refusal to engage your babbling nonsense point-by-point lends your argument nothing.

      Authentica, you are wrong as well. Freakin lemon water as a cure is such an absurd concept that I can’t begin to tell you all the ways your unsupported claim is false. Natural medicine kills people. I see it every day. At best, very few natural items can provide palliative care AT BEST. Not all drugs are synthesized from natural sources. Not even close. However, yes, I realize many are but that doesn’t mean you’re going to eat an otherwise deadly plant and cure a disease. Chemical compounds are synthesized, purified, and modified for very good reason. By no means should anything I say ever be construed as support of “Big Pharma” as a business or corporation. My comments come from a formal education, life experience, and countless years since childhood of research. I am very very well read and studied in medicine with several credentials to back my claim, including homeopathy. That’s right, one of their own disproving their methods. Argue with that.

      “Natural medicine kills people. I see it every day.”…

      HAHAHAHAHA

      Will you people stop feeding the troll now? This clown’s mind has been in a box since birth, there is nothing you can say that will convince him otherwise. He’s been researching since childhood after all… HAHAHAHAHA.

      Here comes “Sniper 13x” the hardcore keyboard warrior LOLZ. I know it’s hard for you to believe other people aren’t as uneducated and ignorant about the world as you. So go ahead and believe everything that comes your way, no matter how contradictory it is to the facts and the basics of so many scientific fields. Remain prideful in your ignorance of the most fundamental of facts. Gain self-esteem through self-assurance that nobody has ever grown up to be what they wanted because hey, you haven’t, and if you can’t do it, no one can. Yet again, I invite anyone to cite ANY REPUTABLE SOURCES WHATSOEVER to back up these absurd claims. I’ll just wait here, surely you’ll deliver…

      I drink RO water with lemon, but no I won’t go for weeks on a H20 water fast ! That is terrible, where are your electrolytes ! How does your heart still beat ? When you restrict good fats the brain signals body to store calories PERIOD ! You have tricked your brain into thinking you are lost in the woods feeding on just berries & water, you’re metabolism goes into conservation mode !

      And for the nutritionist chemist jackass, I’m not selling Kagan water and electrolyte drops ! But i see you dumb analysis every day about body correcting it’s own PH !

      ==================================================
      Of course the body naturally balances a high acid unhealthy meat dairy carb diet ! Where did i claim otherwise ? You can’t understand because you are prob fat and unhealthy KNOW IT ALL, in the same medical industry as myself and 10 other family members !

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l86DZBZlfnQ

      1 2.2ph Coke = 33 7.0ph waters to balance

      I understand the mix in the glass isn’t going to register anything similar in the body (WE GET THAT BROTHER)

      What your arrogance fails to let you understand is that NATURALLY your body strips calcium from bones, hair, teeth, and body to BALANCE the high acid constant diet !

      The extra acids are NATURALLY pushed into your extra rolls of body fat & NATURALLY you are BALANCED.

      When you go greener alkaline diet, the acid fats will safely release, when you stay AMERICAN ACID DIET, the acidic soaked fats will be stubborn and refuse to melt.

      Of course your body naturally balances its own “Ph between 7.35- 7.45. ALWAYS. The only time the Ph is off is during a life-threatening medical emergency and if you were in that situation, you’d either be dead or in a hospital. ”

      Dummy you miss the point, you body has to resource insulin, calcium magnesium, bile, etc just to NATURALLY BALANCE so you don’t die !

      I’m talking about what body buildings do to cut fats w/o losing muscle, you are talking life threatening ph ranges which isn’t close to what i was talking about & you know it jackass.

    • Sniper13x

      @Tim Thank you for posting this! I was browsing for a good book on this subject and you saved me some time and money. I often go 1-2 days of just juicing and feel amazing after, and I noticed every single vegetable and the apple I put in there are in the Alkaline chart. Figures nature would know best right?

      Anyone heard of a book called, “The Wheat Belly”? The author states that the wheat we consume today is absolutely nothing like the wheat of the past. Its been spliced and changed so much it shouldn’t even be called wheat.

    • Anonymous

      WOW! HAHAHA! TimOsman, everything you said is absolute bull. Where do you get this garbage from?! Now I know you’re trolling. 8/10.

      And hey “Sniper14x” I guess if it’s in a book, it’s true. Idiot.
