Benefits of a Liver Cleanse

Why is liver health important?

The liver is the largest internal organ and its optimum functioning is vital to good health and proper detoxification. The liver functions to detoxify blood, regulate cholesterol, synthesise blood proteins, produce bile and store glycogen (for energy use). The liver helps to break down drugs, alcohol and other toxins. It also produces bile, which removes waste products and helps process fats. If the liver malfunctions it can have a range of negative implications on the body and overall health.

I like to think of the liver as a dusty old attic that needs to be cleansed every now and again. Just like the attic, if you go in with too much gusto the dust sprays up into your face (you may get a little nausea or a skin rash). Take it gently and the results will be a nice clean attic (liver).

Did you know that we offer a specialized liver cleanse.  This is ideal for people who drink a little too much, or if you have high cholesterol or if you just feel you have been exposed to too many chemicals or pesticides.  The first step is to book into a Naturopathic appointment and we will teach liver cleansing step by step.
Book now. Initial appointment and testing only $99

Alkalizor Natural Alkaline Spring Water Benefits

1. DETOXIFY
Drinking alkaline water daily can neutralize the acidity and wash acid waste products from cells and tissues.

2. HYDRATE
The amount of water in the human body ranges from 50-75%. The average adult human body is 50-65% water, averaging around 57-60%. Hydrate your body: this is basic to maintain optimum health.

3. OXYGENATE / ANTIOXIDANTS
Alkaline water acts as an antioxidant, scavenging for and neutralizing harmful free radicals. Because alkaline water has the ability to give up electrons, it can effectively neutralize and block free-radical damage to the body.

4. ALKALIZE YOUR BODY’S pH
Alkaline water helps balance the body’s pH, which tends to be acidic because of our high acid food diet, stress and exposure to environmental toxins such as smog. Alkaline is the “normal” state of healthy people.

5. ENHANCE YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
Enhance your immune system to maximize your body’s ability to fight off disease and heal itself.
