1
Locate your liver under your rib cage on the right side of your body by gently palpating that area and feeling the firm mass there. This organ is vital to the storage and distribution of nourishment throughout your body. It helps form, break down and filter toxins from your blood.
2
Keep in mind the blood that flows into the liver carries waste and toxins taken from other parts of your body by way of your bloodstream.
3
Know that when your liver is overworked, it fails to perform its duties properly and allows toxins to enter your blood supply. Toxins circulating in your system cause irritation, and eventual damage to other parts of your body.
4
Realize that your gallbladder sits directly behind your liver and stores and secretes bile for digestion and the breakdown of fats.
5
Understand that if your gallbladder is not functioning properly you may experience gas, abdominal cramping, and headaches. Gallstones, accumulations of cholesterol in your gallbladder, form and are released into the ducts that carry bile to the intestines.
6
Understand that this fast (see "How to Do a Liver and Gallbladder Flush Fast") is designed to soften and flush gall stones through the natural pectin in the apple juice, breaking free most of the old bile and debris. The stagnent bile becomes dissolved by the malic acid of the apple juice, and the oil drink helps move it out. The last day of the fast is designed as a final push, to thoroughly clean the softened gallstones from your gallbladder.
Tips & Warnings
It is normal to experience some discomfort and nausea. Oranges are good for relieving this; however, be sure to chew well and don't eat too much.
It may be necessary to repeat this fast each month for a few months to break loose all gallstones especially if you are over forty and excessivly consume meat, alcohol, fried foods, and chemicals (pesticides) that can be dangerous for your liver.
Pregnant women and
children
should not fast.
Consult your health care provider before going on this fast especially if you have diabetes, heart disease, ulcerative colitis, or epilepsy; if you are under 18 or underweight; or if you are on medication.
