Natural Remedies for Cirrhosis of the liver
 
It is said that Milk Thistle  is the best liver protector of the herbal kingdom,  Milk Thistle contains Silymarin compounds - these are strong antioxidants, and have been shown to reduce damage to liver cells caused by cirrhosis, alcohol damage, prescription drugs and  hepatitis.  We also recommend Zell Oxygen as a natural remedy in cases of Cirrhosis of the liver.  
 
Burt Berkson, MD, Ph.D. believes Alpha Lipoic Acid to be an excellent therapeutic agent for many types of liver disorders.  In his latest book he describes how administering intravenous ALA saved the lives of four patients who had severe liver damage.  Four weeks after the intravenous ALA therapy, the four patient’s liver function tests were "normal”.  Additional studies indicate Alpha Lipoic Acid may have a beneficial effect on patients with acute and chronic alcohol toxicity.  ALA is also an effective detoxifying agent for mercury, arsenic, copper, excess iron, cadmium, excess calcium (a primary cause of premature aging), and lead.
