Summary

Created by Dr. Sandra Cabot of Australia, "The Liver Cleansing Diet" is a practical approach to healthy eating designed to aid the liver in its job of regulating the metabolism and burning fat. Readers can use the book as a guide to an eight-week cleansing, or simply incorporate Dr. Cabot's twelve principles for a healthy liver into their existing diet. While the program can be very beneficial for readers with liver disease, it is also appropriate for anyone who wishes to improve their overall health and well-being. It helps to balance the metabolism, reduces strain on the immune system, and contributes to a healthy energy level.
