Natural Herbs and Detoxification

Hi fellow forum members,

The thread subject is indirectly connected to sexual health- but it’s connected.
I’m not a big fan of modern medicine and methods, and my belief now is that the body’s own ability to cleanse and repair itself is the most important thing. And for it to function properly, it needs to be detoxified, and supported (if necessary-in certain situations) by certain natural herbs growing naturally.

This thread is intended as a thread to share the ideas from this point of view, and practically discussing which herbs can be used (or has been used) , to effectively detoxify the body from impurities we’ve all been exposed to in our everyday lives, what some natural herbs as a solution to some common problems could be, etc.

If there’re any members sharing this view- having info and experience on this subject, I’d appreciate their inputs.
Thanks.

Golden seal is a good body detoxifier.

Thanks man. I’ll look at it.

Another great herb is of course ginseng. It is totally great for the body:

Another idea is to go on a fast to cleanse the body. Hard-core fasters only drink water for 7 to 10 days, while others do a juice fast. I’ve done the water fast once a year for the last three years, and have benefited greatly.

Wow- I’m a little surprised that it is, but of course it can be possible: only water for a week. I suppose you’re doing it on holidays: not much physical action.

Thanks for your input Dave :up: I think I’ll try it with juice for a few days for starters.

Mercury amalgam fillings can be bad news but removing them without a serious detoxification program is for sure worse as the amount of mercury set free during the removal exceeds the amount which leaches out in the worst case normally by far. Selenium is a good detoxificant. I doubt that plants help much here.

Dude I’m removing them. I don’t want poisonous things in my mouth.

I’ll research selenium, thanks.

BTW, I have no doubt about herbs. They are the best.

Milk thistle is believed to have protective effects on the liver and improve its function. It is typically used to treat liver cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis (liver inflammation), and gallbladder disorders. Treatment claims also include:

* Lowering cholesterol levels
* Reducing insulin resistance in people with type 2 diabetes who also have cirrhosis
* Reducing the growth of cancer cells in breast, cervical, and prostate cancers

Thanks JB.
