This approach will not only cure hepatosis, but also improve the functioning of the whole organism. So how to cure fatty liver disease using Ayurvedic knowledge?
To begin with, it is recommended to correct errors in nutrition and attitude to life, by getting rid of negative emotions (anger, dissatisfaction, aggression and malice). Ayurveda divides the treatment of liver hepatosis with folk remedies into three stages: preparatory, cleansing and restorative.
At the first, preparatory stage, it is necessary to take a decoction of the following components:
- 200 g knotweed,
- 100 g each of nine-leaf and rose hips,
- 50 g each of corn silk, birch leaves, calendula, string,
- 25 g each of licorice root, chicory, calamus root, horsetail herb, thistle, lemon balm and nettle leaves,
- 10 g wormwood and 5 g saffron.
The infusion should be taken between meals, in small sips.
The second stage is the most strict and includes cleansing the liver using fresh juices, tea, and herbal infusions from the first stage.
The recovery stage is milder, but also requires adherence to a dietary plan. At night you need to take the following composition:
- 300 g sprouted wheat,
- 200 g pumpkin seed kernels,
- 100 g each of cumin, poppy seeds (seeds), seaweed,
- 20 g of clove inflorescences.
The composition must be ground in a coffee grinder. Every evening, add 1 tablespoon of lecithin, olive oil (10 g), honey, 1 kiwi to 2 tablespoons of the mixture. You need to wash down the mixture with non-carbonated Borjomi.
Another method to cleanse the liver and remove the fatty areas that have formed is to use classic medicinal herbs in Ayurveda: bhumiamalaki, guduchi and katuka. They help remove toxins from the blood and liver. Dosage of herbs – 1:1:1. They are brewed like tea.
In addition, it is recommended to add mild spices to food: turmeric, coriander, fennel, musta, cumin, which will activate the functioning of the diseased organ and remove toxic substances.
