It’s in the new year and I had a friend text me her symptoms : Belly bloating, Gas, face puffy, fatigue ,mood swings, feelings of being “stuck”, irritability or anger, pain in upper right quadrant or “tingling . Well, that rings a bell because I have suffered with that with no gall bladder.
It’s liver stagnation and it’s absolutely no fun. And primary causes are:
• a sedentary lifestyle
• poor diet
• stress
• emotional suppression
Strategies for Relief are perfect for a new year, new you and are healing keys to rebalancing .
• Movement - yoga, Pilates , walking, vibration therapy
• Dietary changes - eat green leafy vegetables, (stop white sugar intake, highly processed foods, and alcohol)
• 2 cups warm lemon water in the morning add 1 tablespoon fire cider to gently move stagnation
• herbal teas to support liver cleansing and to soothe liver energy
• Journaling to Encourage outward flow of stuck emotions for healing
We use:
Barberry Root
Burdock Root
Dandelion Root
Fennel Seed
Ginger Root
Licorice Root
Milk Thistle
This powerful herbal blend works synergistically to rejuvenate liver function by combining protective and stimulating properties. Milk thistle and barberry act as a shield, providing potent antioxidants like silymarin and berberine to protect and repair liver cells from oxidative stress. Dandelion root and burdock serve as natural tonics that stimulate bile flow and lymphatic drainage, effectively flushing out metabolic waste. Meanwhile, ginger, fennel, and licorice harmonize the formula by soothing inflammation and easing digestive bloating, ensuring that the body’s detoxification pathways operate smoothly and comfortably.
Consistent consumption period of 1 to 2 weeks to achieve the best results with a liver cleanse tea. After this initial period, it is standard practice to take a 1-week break before resuming for a second cycle; this "cycling" approach helps prevent the body from becoming over-reliant on the herbs and allows the kidneys to return to their baseline function.
While subtle digestive improvements may be noticed within a few days, more significant support—such as improvements in liver enzymes—often requires consistent use for 4 to 8 weeks.
Guideline for Consistency
Daily Routine: Most protocols suggest drinking the tea 1–2 times per day during the active "on" phase.
Maximum Duration: It is generally advised not to exceed 3 to 4 weeks of continuous daily use without a break.
Signs of Progress: Many users report increased energy and reduced bloating within 2–4 weeks.
Timing:
Drinking a serving in the morning before eating may help activate bile flow.
Consuming the tea between meals is sometimes suggested for continuous support.
An evening serving before bed might align with the liver's natural cycle.
