Traditional Liver
cirrhosis treatments
|
Cirrhosis of the liver is treated
in traditional medicine with chemical drugs, which do not cure
the cirrhosis but manage pain temporarily. In advanced stages a
dangerous and costly liver transplant is performed.
Available Liver cirrhosis treatments can be classified as medicine of the
first degree among the seven levels of medicine. The current
Liver cirrhosis medications and procedures are expensive, not
offering a cure and have harmful side effects. |

Liver cirrhosis and
eastern medicine
|
The liver is a very resilient
organ. It falls at the beginning of YIN region of the yin-yang
cycle in the body. That is why YANG foods such as red meat and
cheese antagonize the liver. Read the five transformations
(elements) theory in Chinese medicine. Once given a chance to
heel itself of cirrhosis, the liver will do so quickly.
You can read more about the relation between Liver cirrhosis and YIN and
YANG in the seven laws of the universe. Because liver cirrhosis
is directly related to the liver, the kidneys and lungs are also
involved. Please read about the Chinese five elements theory and
the mother-father relations of the liver to the kidneys and
lungs. |

Liver cirrhosis
natural alternative treatment and cure
|
Cirrhosis of the liver is an
extreme YANG illness and can be treated effectively and cured
with the right diet. But the factors that led to the cirrhosis
must be removed. If the cause of the cirrhosis is heavy alcohol
consumption, then the patient must be willing to give up
drinking. If the cause of the cirrhosis is heavy fatty foods
consumption, then the patient must be willing to give up rich
fatty foods. In cases where the cirrhosis cause is a long
standing hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection, the right diet
will eliminate the infection that has led to the cirrhosis, and
gradually restore the liver function to normal. Read about
natural antibiotics.
The right diet will cure liver cirrhosis in time. Liver cirrhosis
patients often have elevated liver enzyme levels. An early sign
of improvement for liver cirrhosis patients while following the
right diet is a normalization of these enzymes. Just like with
any other illness, the diet for a liver cirrhosis patient has to
be designed carefully. Taking into account how advanced the
cirrhosis is, and if there are any other illnesses that the
liver cirrhosis patient might have such as high blood pressure
or diabetes. On the right diet, a liver cirrhosis patient begins
to experience improvements in health within a few days of
following the diet. A complete recovery depends on the degree of
the cirrhosis. It could take months. But the recovery is certain
and the need for a liver transplant operation in the future is
eliminated. |

Liver cirrhosis and
macrobiotics
|
Most people have come to believe
that macrobiotics means eating exotic Japanese foods. This is a
misconception. To cure liver cirrhosis you do not have to eat
Japanese foods. You have to first understand the principles of
natural balance explained in macrobiotics in order to understand
what eating habits and other habits have led you to develop
liver cirrhosis. Then, macrobiotic principles will help you
determine what foods you will have to eat in order to cure liver
cirrhosis. Read If macrobiotics means eating locally grown
foods, why are we eating Japanese foods?
If you are a liver cirrhosis patient and tried macrobiotics (particularly
the #7 diet) but found it did not work for you, then the foods
you have selected are not appropriate for your condition. Please
read: The standard macrobiotic diet does not work for some
people. Why? |
|
Liver cirrhosis and
the food pyramid
|
It is true that food is best
medicine for liver cirrhosis. But some foods help cure liver
cirrhosis and some make the condition worse. The food pyramid is
only a general guideline and does not provide any specific
information in the natural treatment of liver cirrhosis.
|
|
Liver cirrhosis and
vitamin and mineral supplements
|
Food is best medicine. With a
carefully designed diet plan for liver cirrhosis there is no
need for vitamin and mineral supplements. Some vitamin and
mineral supplements can have adverse side effects on a liver
cirrhosis patient when taken randomly or in large doses.
However, if they are desired, only natural food-based
supplements should be selected and taken in moderate amounts.
And beware of alleged miracle cures in far away lands.
