Page 3 of 7 What Causes A Sluggish Or Unhealthy Liver?
Today's lifestyles subject us to stressful living. The following four main factors contribute to a toxic liver:
- The
typical American diet is harsh on the liver. Improper diets high in
carbohydrates, saturated and hydrogenated fats can be hard on the
liver. Diets low in quality protein do not provide the building blocks
for repairing the body and stimulating the immune system. Processed
foods, white sugar, white flour, junk foods and imitation foods, which
are robbed of natural nutrients, can exhaust the liver.
- The
most common problem, which adds an additional strain to the liver, is
overeating. This overworks the liver so that it cannot perform its
detoxifying role properly.
- Today's environment and foods are
filled with pesticides, insecticides, toxic chemicals, preservatives,
etc... With time, the accumulation of toxins and waste can contribute
to chronic health disorders.
- Alcohol, tobacco products, drugs
and pharmaceuticals (including oral contraceptives and hormone
replacement therapy) place extra stress on the liver.
These
four areas will cause a toxic environment for our bodies, resulting in
allergies, digestive problems, low energy, weight gain, high
cholesterol, and disease. The importance of maintaining a healthy liver
cannot be over-emphasized in its relationship to complete good health
and well-being.
