Liver Detox

Mankind has to deal with increasing toxicity in our food system, more so nowadays than ever before than in any other century. Each year millions of tons of toxic waste are discarded into the earth’s eco-system which will eventually enter our food chain. Fishes from the sea have increasingly been tainted with toxic heavy metals. Food are now loaded with preservatives to extend their shelf live. Farm animals are fed with growth hormones to make them grow faster so that businessmen can make faster and more profits. These animals are injected with antibiotics to ensure they live to maturity but these antibiotics are harmful to humans. The residues of these hazardous chemicals constantly appear on our tables. Farm produce are not free from incredibly toxic pesticides when they appear on our food table.

The foods produced by our fast food industry contain a highly toxic compound called HNE (4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal) which is very harmful to our livers. Our sedentary life styles and heavy consumption of alcohol, deep fried foods and our over dependence on toxic drugs (that only provide symptomatic treatment) manufactured by irresponsible greedy corporation has not helped either. Our livers now have to work much harder to break down the chemicals that have crept into our food chain. If you talk to gastroenterologists today they will tell you that the condition "Dysfunction Liver" affects more than 50% of people over the age of 50!

Many health experts and scientists now believe modern-day medicine has become sidetracked into treating the symptoms of diseases and not the causes. We have failed to treat our dysfunction liver effectively. When we failed to take care of our liver we virtually ignored the hardest-working organ in the body.

Although there are laws to govern the use of antibiotic and growth hormones, that does not guarantee farmers and growers comply 100%. Many of these chemicals are carcinogenic. The profit motive attracts people to ignore or turn a blind eye to many of these malpractices. Even though there are many chemicals that may be present in animal tissues that have no established safe concentrations, it does not mean that they are not harmful.

Our 21st century livers are constantly challenged and put under pressure. They are over worked and under cared. In fact those over 50 have signs of liver dysfunction: liver spots, lethargy, skin disease, erectile dysfunction, cholesterol problems, fatty liver, loss of appetite, exhaustion and fatigue.


The functions of the liver are:

  • It manufactures proteins

  • It synthesizes, stores and metabolizes fats  

  • It metabolizes and stores carbohydrates

  • It produces and secretes bile

  • It eliminates the potentially harmful biochemical products produced by the body

  • It detoxifies and removes drugs, alcohol and environmental toxins

As a detoxifier, it breaks down all forms of toxic chemicals like ammonia, metabolic waste, drugs, alcohol and chemicals, so that they can be excreted. Once this function is affected, the body will slowly show signs of “disapproval”.

Symptoms of a dysfunction liver:

  • Loss of appetite

  • Weight loss  

  • Lethargy

  • Fatigue

  • Loss of interest in sex

  • Prone to anger

  • Poor health

  • Immunity problem like itchy skin

  • Mental problem like forgetfulness or problem in concentration

Keeping the Liver Healthy

They are many ways one can detox the body to keep our systems healthy. Some of them are:

  • Fasting

  • Cleansing the intestine and colon

  • Taking antioxidant products for general cleansing

  • Liver detox

The liver is a processing and filtration plant. Like any mechanical filter, it needs to be serviced regularly to ensure that it works at its optimum all the time. Therefore it needs to be cleansed regularly. It is better to do general maintenance then to do it once in a blue moon.

Some of the best herbs to detox the liver are Rehmannia Glutinosa, Scutellaria Baicalensis, Fructus Zanthii, Flos Lonicera Japonica, Artemisia Scoparia and Radix Glycyrrhiza Glabra. Numerous researches have been done on these herbs and it has been proven by modern scientists that the herbalists were correct in their understanding of the use of these herbs. The best and safest method is to use holistic products that have been used by hundreds of millions of people stretching over the centuries to effectively treat the problem. Herbs like Rehmannia Glutinosa, Scutellaria Baicalensis, Fructus Zanthii, Flos Lonicera Japonica, Artemisia Scoparia and Radix Glycyrrhiza Glabra have scientifically been proven to treat liver problems caused by pathogenic influences.

Radix Rehmannia Glutinosa: Clinical research by western scientists have shown that Chinese Rehmanniae Radix can prevent an inducement of impediment in the peripheral microcirculation of various chronic diseases through the improvement of hemorheology (blood flow). 12826

Glycyrrhiza Glabra:

This was part of the report sent by Dr. Minh-Tri Nguyen to Dr. Gueůnaešl Rodier, Director, Department of Communicable Disease Surveillance and Response (CSR), WHO Headquarter  "Viruses are chemical particles having the ability to replicate only inside a living cell. Each virus particle or viron consist of a core of a single nucleic acid DNA or RNA surrounding by a protein coat and some cases by carbohydrates or lipids. Since viruses have no cellular organization, they have not cellular organism, have no nucleus, no cytoplasm and no surrounding  membrane, they are not alive but rather obligate parasites at genetic level (require a host cell in order to replicate). That is why antibiotics (anti=against, bio life) cannot kill coronaryviruses and consequently there is no possible vaccine for colds, influenza or SARS. Coronaryvirus (virus from Latin = poison) can be only counter-acted or neutralized by specific antidote herbs, which are highly suitable for human body." In the report to WHO he sighted that Radix Glycyrrhizae can be used for detoxification: neutralizes the poison produce by viruses and bacteria by action of  Glycyrrhizic acid C42 H62 O16

Licorice root extract has been used in Japan for more than twenty years as a treatment for chronic hepatitis. Results from randomized clinical trials using licorice root have shown a significant reduction of serum amino-transferase and a significant improvement in liver histology.11,12

11 Van Rossum TG, Vulto AG, de Man RA, Brouwer JT, Schalm SW. Review Article: glycyrrhizin as a potential treatment for chronic hepatitis C. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 1998 Mar; 12(3): 199-205.
12 Yamamura Y, Kotaki H, Tanaka N, Aikawa T, Sawada Y, Iga T. The pharmacokinetics of glycyrrhizin and its restorative effect on hepatic function in patients with chronic hepatitis and chronically carbon-tetrachloride intoxicated rats. Biopharm Drug Dispos 1997 Nov;18(8):717-25.

1) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that glycyrrhizin has inhibitory effects on immune-mediated cytotoxicity against hepatocytes and on nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B, which activates genes encoding inflammatory cytokines in the liver and can be used to treat hepatitis. 87634

2) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb has strong anticarcinogenic capability. Aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1)) causes oxidative stress and ROS formation via metabolic activation of AFB(1). Glycyrrhizic acid (GA) has been reported to have antioxidative properties. 67692

3) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that the decrease of elevated transaminase levels by glycyrrhizin in patients with chronic viral hepatitis is mediated in part by inhibition of immune-mediated cytotoxicity against hepatocytes. 42643

4) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that glycyrrhizin suppressed the intracellular transport of HBsAg at the trans-Golgi area after O-linked glycosylation and before its sialylation. Glycyrrhizin, a major component of a herb (licorice), has been widely used to treat chronic hepatitis B in Japan. 14808

5) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that Glycyrrhizin, an aqueous extract of licorice root, has anti-inflammatory activity and can be used for the treatment of chronic viral hepatitis.  Research showed that glycyrrhizin may prevent tissue injury caused by MAC not only in chronic hepatitis but in many autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. 92245

6) Clinical research by western scientists in a double blind placebo test have shown that active compounds in licorice root can be used to help prevent and treat chronic hepatitis (liver inflammation). 941500

7) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that (R)-4-(3,4-Dihydro-8,8-dimethyl)-2H,8H-benzo[1,2-b:3,4-b']dipyran-3yl)-1,3-benzenediol (glabridin), a flavonoid present in licorice extract, is known to have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and cardiovascular protective activities. 312:1187

8) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that isoflavans from G. glabra were shown to be effective in protecting liver mitochondrial function against oxidative stresses. 14953

9) Clinical studies by western scientists have shown that glycyrrhizic acid from licorice is able to inhibit cytotocity produced by aflatoxin B1 (it is a fungal toxin which is a powerful liver carcinogen). 7692

10) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that the flavonoid of licorice, flavones, flavonals, isoflavones, chalcones, bihydroflavones and bihydrochalcones, have antioxidant, antibacterial, antitumer and inhibiting HIV activities 593-7

11) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that Glycyrrhiza glabra protects liver mitochondria against oxidative stresses. Mitochondrial lipid peroxidation linked to respiratory electron transport and that induced non-enzymatically were inhibited by the herb. 219-23.

Scutellaria baicalensis:

1) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that saikosaponin-a, -d, baicalin from  Scutellaria baicalensis are potent antitumor components. 28;86(1):91-5

2) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that the flavones of Scutellaria baicalensis showed remarkable inhibitory effects on skin tumor. 40(2):531-3.

3) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that Scutellaria baicalensis' components, baicalein, baicalin, and wogonin, may become an attractive and promising treatment for bladder cancer because of its strong antioxidant effect.  55(6):951-5

4) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that Scutellaria baicalensis has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Research showed that Scutellaria baicalensis selectively and effectively inhibits cancer cell growth in vitro and in vivo and can be an effective chemotherapeutic agent for HNSCC. Inhibition of PGE2 synthesis via suppression of COX-2 expression may be responsible for its anticancer activity.  4037-40

5) Western scientists has proven that Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi can be used to induce liver regeneration. Research showed that SbG stimulates hepatocyte growth via activation of the NF-B pathway and induces TGF-ß1 gene expression through the Kupffer cell–hepatocyte interaction, which subsequently results in the inhibition of SbG-stimulated hepatocyte growth. 231:444

6) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb has strong anti-oxidant (anti-cancer) properties. Research showed that most of the anticancer activities of S. baicalensis can be recapitulated with four purified constituents that function in part through inhibition of the androgen receptor signaling pathway. 390539

7) Clinical research by western scientists has shown that Scutellaria baicalensis have anti-inflammatory functions, high scavenging activity and protects liver and red blood cells from lipid peroxidation. Research showed that extract of Scutellaria baicalensis showed inhibitory actions on aminopyrine N-demethylase and xanthine oxidase activities as well as an pro-oxidant effect observed in the Fe3+-EDTA-H2O2 system. 60151

Herba Artemisiae Scorparia:

1) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb is effective for treating liver diseases. Research showed that scoparone decreases the production of the inflammatory mediators such as NO and PGE2 in macrophages by inhibiting iNOS and COX-2 expression. 203-8 

2) Another group of scientists wrote "these data indicate that the plant artemisia scoparia is hepatoprotective and validate the folkloric use of this plant in liver damage". The scientists wrote "the pretreatment of rats with plant extract (150 mg/kg) significantly lowered (P < 0.01), the respective serum GOT and GPT levels to 93 +/- 05 and 27 +/- 03 IU/l, indicating hepatoprotective action." 41001

3) Clinical research by western scientists has shown that the plant artemisia scoparia is hepatoprotective and validate the folkloric use of this plant for treating liver problems". Research demonstrated that the inhibition of scoparone on LPS-induced TF expression in HUVECs may mediate by the mechanisms suppressing superoxide anion formation and TF transcription. 72379

4) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that artemisia scoparia has strong hepatoprotective function. Research demonstrated that AC may prevent the EtOH-induced cytotoxicity through inhibition of the apoptosis of Hep G2 cells. 75739

5) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb is strong hepatoprotective function against drug-induced hepatotoxicity. Research showed that rutin (20 mg/kg) was able to prevent the CCl(4)-induced rise in serum enzymes and that it also prevented the CCl(4)-induced prolongation in pentobarbital sleeping time confirming its hepatoprotectivity. 90212

6) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb has strong hepatoprotective function against drug-induced hepatotoxicity. Research showed that the plant extract (150 mg/kg) lowered significantly the respective serum GOT and GPT levels to 85 +/- 11 and 23 +/- 06.5. 12519

7) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb has strong hepatoprotective function against chemical-induced hepatotoxicity. 33139

8) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that this herb has strong hepatoprotective function against chemical-induced hepatotoxicity. Research showed that DA-9601 effectively protected rat liver tissues against the DMN-induced hepatic fibrosis. Antioxidant could be considered as a supplementary therapeutic for alleviating the hepatic fibrosis. 06248

9) Clinical research by western scientists have shown that scoparone of Artemisia capillaris has immune-enhancing activity. Research showed that scoparone may inhibit the expression of chemokines (IL-8 and MCP-1) in PMA-stimulated U937 cells and a potential mechanism of scoparone may be inhibition of NF-kappaB activation, which is linked to inhibition of NF-kappaB subunits (NF-kappaB(1) p50, RelA p65, and c-Rel p75) translocation via suppression of IkappaBalpha phosphorylation. 37638

Thanks to growing trust in herbal treatments survival rates have improved over the years. Herbal formulations to treat various types of liver problems has proven to be safe and very effective without any side effects. When allopathic science failed, more and more people have to turn to trustworthy alternative source. It was desperation that saves them.
