Congratulations, you did it! You completed a 9-day liver cleanse. Now it's important to transition out of it gently.

Transition After a Cleanse

First day:                              Begin with Liver Rescue Morning. Avoid radical fats. Focus on fruit and vegetables.

Second day:                         Begin again with Liver Rescue Morning. You can reintroduce radical fats later in the day; limit to one serving.

Third day and beyond:      Continue with Liver Care Basics as outlined below. Adopt anything that you enjoyed in the 9 Day Cleanse into your days, such as the snacks, or the Hands-on Liver Flush.

Liver Care Basics

How we care for our livers determines our health, aging process, and much of our well-being physically, mentally and emotionally. The liver can renew itself with proper care.

1.   Liver Rescue Morning

·       Drink  500 ml (16 OZ) of water with a half (or whole depending on the size) of lime or lemon squeezed in, to hydrate well  first thing upon awakening. Wait for 20 minutes before eating or drinking anything else.

·       Consider having also 500 ml of celery juice every morning, wait 20 minutes before drinking or eating.

·       For breakfast eat a lot of fruit, and avoid all radical fats, such as nuts, seeds, nut butters, almond, coconut, soy and other milk, eggs, yogurt, cheese, all meat, avocado.

·       Granola or porridge such as oatmeal is okay, without nuts and seeds (these are fats) and without any kind of milk (fat again) –try with applesauce.

·       All fruit and berry smoothies are great (again no milk.)

·       Also avoid protein powders. They often contain flavors and/or fats.

2. Other Important Considerations

·       Wait till dinner to eat fats, if you can, or at least until lunch.

·       Eat plenty of “Critical Clean Carbohydrates” – CCC, such as all fruit, all potatoes (white, yellow, red, sweet), yams, squash, pumpkin. All these feed our liver with glucose.

·       Minimize radical fats (whether considered good or bad ones) in your diet.

·       Avoid: eggs, dairy (milk, butter, cheese, yogurt etc), gluten containing grains, pork,farmed fish, corn, soy, canola oil, artificial and ‘natural’ flavors.

Day 9 of Medical Medium Original 3-6-9 Liver Cleanse - juicing day. I love this one. It's now that the liver really gets a chance to let go of the toxins that we were helping it to prepare to let go in previous days.

Consider taking Day 9 as a ‘sacred day of rest’ where you don’t have to do too much or run around, or rest at least part of the day.

The blend of celery, cucumber and apple juices has the right balance of mineral salts, potassium and natural sugar, to stabilize your glucose levels as your body cleanses itself of toxins. This safeguards your adrenals.

Talk to your liver letting it know that you will be taking care of it from now on, and use the Hands-on Liver Flushing technique: rest your hand gently on the liver (right hand side of your upper abdomen).  You could visualize healing light from your hand going to your liver.

Liver Cleanse - Day 9

Upon waking:        16 ounces lemon or lime water

Over the course of the day consume:
                                  Two 16- to 20-ounce celery juices (one morning, one early evening)
                                  Two 16- to 20-ounce cucumber-apple juices (anytime)

                                  Fresh-squeezed orange juice, or blended melon or papaya as much as you like
                                  Water with optional lemon or lime in it (sip at least 8 ounces in between drinking the juices)

Evening:                  16 ounces of lemon or lime water, hibiscus or lemon balm tea

Enjoy this sacred day of liver care. Tomorrow I will share tips on how to transition out of the cleanse.

Day 8 your liver will continue to release deeper layers of toxins. But you should be feeling only mild cleanse symptoms, if any, because we are supporting the liver with critical clean carbohydrates (berries and fruit) the whole time, and not forcing it to cleanse too fast. We are gearing up now for day 9 which will be a juicing day, and the grand finale of this cleanse.

Guidelines for days 7 to 9

·       Continue to avoid radical fats entirely (nuts, seeds, oils, coconut, meat, eggs, dairy, olives, avocado)

·       Stick to the foods outlined below, avoid salt, eat or drink as much as you need to feel full

Liver Cleanse - Day 8

Upon waking:        16 ounces lemon or lime water

Morning:                 16 ounces of celery juice, Liver Rescue Smoothie

Lunchtime:             Spinach soup over cucumber noodles

Mid-afternoon:     16 ounces of celery juice, at least two apples (or two servings of applesauce) plus celery sticks and cucumber slices

Dinnertime:            Steamed asparagus and Brussels sprouts plus optional Liver Rescue Salad

Evening:                  Apple (if desired), 16 ounces of lemon or lime water, hibiscus or lemon balm tea

You are doing amazing!
