best medicine
No chemical drugs or

not even
herbal concoctions. Just the right diet for treating and curing
liver cirrhosis. Learn how.
What is Liver cirrhosis?
Cirrhosis of the liver is caused by a number of factors:
1. Long standing hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection of the liver.
2. Consuming
alcohol heavily for an extended period of time.
3. Consuming
fatty foods heavily for extended periods of time.
4.
Some other less frequent factors.
Liver cirrhosis symptoms include among others: vomiting, fatigue, fever,
constipation or
diarrhea, excessive intolerance to
rich foods and
nausea.
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.
