We live in a polluted world. There are literally tens of thousands of toxins in our air, water, and food supplies, and they all add up and stack up on one another.

Due to such exposures, the organs of your body can quickly get overloaded and overwhelmed, becoming unable to function optimally. When this happens, the stage is set for disease to begin.

But even without the appearance of actual disease, you can, as far too many people do today, feel lousy even when your doctor is unable to find anything wrong with you.

This is particularly true when it comes to impaired liver function, as your liver the primary defense against toxicity, along with the many of hundreds of other functions it must carry out each day.

The Energy Medicine approaches that we advocate in our book Outstanding Health look at the electrical, or energetic, status of the liver (as well as all other organs and glands).

In an electrocardiogram, the electrical impulse of the heart precedes the physical heartbeat. The same thing is true for all of your body’s other organs.

In every case, electrical changes in the organs precede physical symptoms, occurring months or more before the physical symptoms themselves arise.

So when the electrical status of the liver becomes abnormal, people will often have symptoms such as migraine or insomnia, and this is something you can’t see on a liver function blood test or an ultrasound of the liver.

Energy Medicine reveals that the livers of most people today are sluggish due to toxic overload, tissue acidity, and various other factors. To prevent disease and achieve outstanding health, it is essential to restore the liver to an optimal state of energetic, physical and chemical balance.

If you looked at nothing else in your body and only went about cleaning up your liver and improving its energetic and overall functioning, you would go a very long way toward improving your health and feeling better.

Don’t forget, the first four letters in liver are L-I-V-E.
