Strong liver function is very dependent on GI tract health. The blood supply to the GI tract and liver are completely intertwined and interdependent.
Your liver filters your entire blood supply every 3-5 minutes. That is a big job. Your liver draws a large volume of blood, rich with dietary nutrients, straight from the GI tract, uses the nutrients, removes toxins and expells many toxins through the liver bile.
Strong liver function is critical for good health. Almost all cancer patients have compromised liver function. A major undiagnosed factor leading to liver disease is lack of healthy intestinal bacteria and often includes an overgrowth of candida which can create a parasite-friendly environment.
The first line of defense to restore healthy liver function is diet and detoxification. Especially important is to eliminate toxic food preservatives, all processed sugar, processed flour and polyunsaturated vegetable oils.
Most people are familiar with kidney dialysis. This machine filters the bloodstream, removing many toxins that a healthy kidney would remove. A liver dialysis supercharges and strengthens the liver to clean the blood stream and produce therapeutic bile. However, this simple process is much easier, less-invasive, and easily self-managed.
What is this liver dialysis therapy? It is a simple at-home coffee enema or professioal colon hydrotherapy treatment. Both are very effective and long recommended by Kristina Amelong, Max Gerson, Kerri Rivera and many other natural health practitioners. An at-home coffee enema is easily self-administered in a private and comfortable home setting at a very economic price compared to expensive and invasive medical procedures.
In addition to recovering liver function, coffee enema is a highly effective therapy for managing and reducing pain levels, nausea and migraines. Kristing Amelong, in Ten Days to Optimal Health explains as follows:
...Dr. Max Gerson recommeded taking a daily coffee enema for two years [after cancer diagnosis] because the liver is the main organ for the
regeneration of the body's metabolism for the transformation of food from intake to output...
[Ten Days to Optimal Health, Pgs. 138-139]
So how does coffee enema help the liver?
...Bile is one of our main bodily fluids used to remove toxins. It is stored in the gallbladder, it draws out environmental and metabolic toxins... Coffee stimulates the liver to make more bile. (Remember that one needs to eat foods high in healthy fats such
as coconut oil and red palm oil in order to produce sufficient amounts of bile.) Coffee also stimulates the muscles of the bile ducts in the gallbladder to relax...allowing therapeutic amounts of bile, and thus toxins, to pass from
the gallbladder into the small intestines..

Kristina Amelong further explains:
The neutraceuticals, theophylline and theobromine, dilate blood vessels, increasing blood dialysis across the
colon wall. This increased blood supply to the intestinal tract improves muscle tone and digestion, as well as the
elimination process....

Podcast: Wendy Myers: Heavy Metal Toxicity, Mineral Power, & Coffee Enemas - #205:
When dealing with a serious diagnosis, the best way to help the body clear and maintain its metabolic garbage disposal
function is: a.) diet,
and b.) lifestyle: light to moderate exercise, sunshine, fresh air and c.) colon hydrotherapy or enemas. It is very beneficial for many cancer patients to temporarily or permanently remove all processed flour products, processed sugar and polyunsaturated vegetable oils as these can cause intestinal inflammation. Leaving out these processed products helps the GI tract heal and promotes fluid exchange at the cellular level.
An important element in a liver recovery diet is red palm oil. ...Studies show that dietary saturated fat reduces fat buildup in the liver, strengthens liver cells resistance to oxidation and reduces injury....Palm oil not only helps prevent damage but also aids in the healing process...Because palm oil protects the liver from injury and aids in its repair, researchers are now recommending it as the treatment of choice for various types of liver diease.
[The Palm Oil Miracle, Dr. Bruce Fife, pg. 127]
The small intestine and colon are the body's super highway
for nutrient absorption and elimination.
Restoring them to full function is vital for regaining health.
The colon hydrotherapy and/or at-home enema does two main things:
1.) opens up the GI tract/colon to eliminate metabolic garbage
2.) as the GI tract/colon clear - liver function (and bile flow) improve - this is critical because the liver cleans
the entire blood stream. Your body cannot heal or even maintain basic functions without healthy blood.
