Liver Cleanse - The Master Cleanse Explained
The most important & the first cleanse you can start with is Liver Cleanse. We explain below why ?
Liver Cleanse
Structure and Location
The liver is the second largest single organ (after the skin) in the body, weighing about two kg in an adult. It is approximately 21-22 cm across at its widest point, 15-17 cm at its greatest vertical height and 10-12 cm from front to back. The liver is composed of soft, red-brown tissue and is divided into lobes and enclosed by a tough fibrous capsule. It is situated in the upper abdomen on the right side, beneath and loosely attached to the diaphragm. Its primary secretion, the bile, is poured into the gallbladder and then into the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine), through the common bile duct. The liver has an intricate and complex system of blood vessels that is unique and unlike any other organ. The major portion, i.e. 75% of the blood that is received by the liver is venous blood from the portal vein. It receives 25% of arterial blood from the hepatic artery.
Functions of Liver
The liver is the body’s principal chemical plant. The number of important functions and their intricacy leaves one in wonder considering its size.
The liver has important functions that affect the overall health of a person. They are related to the digestion of fats, metabolism of carbohydrates and removal of nitrogenous waste products, toxins etc and also in the production of proteins and also as an important organ of the immune system. The liver acts in conjunction with other important organs such as the pancreas, spleen and gall bladder to perform these functions.
The liver receives its blood supply from the intestines via the portal vein. This blood contains the final products of digestion as well as decomposition products. All of the venous blood returning from the small intestine, stomach, pancreas and spleen converges into the portal vein and flows to the liver As a consequence the liver gets first pickings of everything absorbed in the small intestine, where virtually all nutrients are absorbed. The first job of the liver is to process all the food that your small intestine has absorbed. All other functions of the liver are sequential to this primary function.
From this venous blood, the liver removes glucose, turns it into glycogen and stores it. Whenever the body needs energy, the liver converts this glycogen back into glucose, which then travels through the bloodstream to the cells, where it is needed.
The important functions of the liver can be summarized as below:
Why the liver needs to be cleansed
Liver is one of the five vital organs that need to function efficiently for a healthy life. The functions of the liver are directly connected to the functions of other important organs such as the pancreas, the spleen, the gall bladder and the entire digestive tract. Liver can be considered as the most important organ in the abdomen and the health of the liver directly affects the health of all the other organs mentioned. Liver cleansing helps the liver to be in good health and function efficiently. As a result of this other organs such as pancreas, gall bladder, spleen and the intestines also work efficiently and many life-style diseases are cured naturally.
The functioning of other vital organs such as heart, kidney and lungs also depends on the smooth working of the liver.
Concept of Liver Cleanse
1. Due to eating cooked food and due to environmental pollutants etc, toxins accumulate in capillaries in the liver. To visualize this condition, imagine the situation if your garden hose had marbles in it. Much less water would flow, which in turn would decrease the ability of the hose to flush out the marbles. With gallstones, much less cholesterol leaves the body and cholesterol levels rise. If you remove the marbles from the garden hose, water flows freely once again. Similarly, once you do the liver cleanse, cholesterol levels come down and liver performance is improved.
2. Cleansing reduces clogging of blood capillaries inside the liver and gallbladder.
3. At least two cleanses per year are required for a healthy person to compensate for wrong food habits and living in a polluted environment. In many people, including children, the biliary tubing is choked with gallstones. Some develop allergies or hives but others exhibit no symptoms. When the gallbladder is scanned or X-rayed, nothing is seen. Typically, the gallstones are not in the gallbladder. Not only that, most are too small and not calcified, a prerequisite for visibility on an X-ray.
Diseases that can be cured by cleansing Liver
It is important to understand the other intimately related organ of the liver; the gallbladder where bile is stored and where gallstones are formed which can create great discomfort and pain
Gallbladder and the Bile
Each day, the liver produces up to 400 ml of bile the primary digestive fluid that helps in the digestion of fats. The gallbladder acts as a storage reservoir for bile and is attached to the liver via the common bile duct. The bile is released into the small intestine in optimum quantities as and when it is needed. Eating fats or protein triggers the gallbladder to squeeze itself empty after about twenty minutes and the stored bile travels down the common bile duct to the intestines where fat is emulsified and digested.
Bile is a fluid that is made and released by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile helps with digestion. It breaks down fats into fatty acids, which can be taken into the body by the digestive tract. Bile contains mostly cholesterol, bile acids (also called bile salts), and bilirubin (a breakdown product of red blood cells). It also contains water, body salts (such as potassium and sodium), Copper and other metals
Bile is designed to cleanse the liver of toxins, fat and sludge and to flush out the stones of fatty and calcified deposits that we call gallstones. The longer the bile remains in the gallbladder the thicker this bitter, greenish liquid becomes and the greater the likelihood of stones forming. These stones also form when too little bile is produced. They in turn decrease the ability of the liver to make bile and as a result, less cholesterol and toxins are removed from the body.
Without your gallbladder, i.e. when it is removed by surgery for instance, the liver will still produce bile but the same can no longer be stored, hence it is released into the intestine.
The spleen breaks down the haemoglobin in the worn out red blood cells into bile salts and other substances. Our body is a wonderful system. Even worn out blood cells get used. Bile salts are normal in the body when in normal amounts. The liver removes excess bile salts and wastes and sends them to the gallbladder for storage.
Functions of Bile
1. It neutralizes the acid from the stomach (because bile is very alkaline).
2. It breaks down fats so that they can be digested.
3. It is a natural laxative for the colon.
Bile is essential in the digestion of fats. When you eat a meal with fats, the gallbladder releases a large amount of bile to digest them. The concept of emulsifying fats is similar to washing greasy dishes. Without adding soap, it is almost impossible to clean off the grease. Soap emulsifies the grease, so that it can be removed. In a similar way, the gallbladder stores bile and bile acids, which emulsify the fat so that they can be properly transported through the intestines into the blood stream.
When the gallbladder is removed by surgery, the storage centre for bile is removed. When a large amount is needed to digest a meal with a lot of fat, there is not enough bile to digest it properly. This may result in improper digestion of fats. Even after the surgical removal of the gallbladder, a little pocket remains where stones can accumulate. The liver cleanse will flush out the area and expel gallstones that may have formed post surgery.
What are Gallstones?
Stones can form anywhere in the body where there is a liquid containing mineral salts that can be crystallized and where the fluid is held for a while in a hollow organ, such as the gallbladder. The stones may be large or small, and sometimes grow together causing extra large stones. Small stones are often excreted along with the bile and eliminated with no problem. Larger ones, however, can become lodged in the ducts, causing gallstone colic, one of the most painful illnesses known. At other times, gallstones may be silent. In autopsies, examiners often find gallbladders full of gallstones. A gallstone is not a true stone. They are rather rubbery and soft. Most gallstones float. Only a few sink. They are mostly green. The size varies from rice grains to golf balls. Even large gallstones will slip out easily through the anus with gallbladder-cum-liver cleanse. Pathological analysis of a liver cleanse stone sample was 91%.cholesterol and the rest was bile salts, water and inert ingredients. It had the chemical composition of gallstones that have been removed surgically.
Gallstones are more likely to grow where there are high levels of cholesterol. Cholecystitis is an inflammation and possible infection of the gallbladder, caused by a blockage that has been there too long.
There are over half a dozen varieties of gallstones, most of which have cholesterol crystals in them. They can be black, red, white, green or tan coloured. The green ones get their colour from being coated with bile. Some gallstones are shaped like corks with longitudinal grooves below the tops. Bile ducts are blocked from such shapes. Other stones are composites: made of many smaller ones. Gallstones, being porous, can pick up all the bacteria, cysts, viruses and parasites that are passing through the liver. At the very centre of each stone, a lump of bacteria can be found. This is suggestive that a bit of dead parasite might have started the stone formation. In this way nests of infection are formed, forever supplying the body with fresh bacteria. No stomach problem such as ulcers and intestinal bloating can be cured permanently without removing these gallstones from the liver.
As the stones grow and become numerous, the back pressure on the liver causes it to make less bile.
Cleansing the liver of gall stones dramatically improves digestion, which is the basis of your whole health. You can expect your allergies to be reduced by up to 50% immediately after the first cleanse. The benefits increase with each cleanse you do. Incredibly, it also eliminates shoulder, upper arm and upper back pain and many other ailments. You have more energy and an increased sense of well-being.
Symptoms when Gallstones are the Problem
Organs Never Malfunction
The organs of our body never do anything other than what they are supposed to do. However, they do stop working. The answer is not to remove the organ like the gallbladder but to work out what is needed to get the organ to start working again.
Removal of the gallbladder because there are gallstones that are troubling you is hardly a solution to the problem. When a gallbladder is removed, a new pathway for the bile is created. The trouble with this new pathway is that the bile irritates the pancreas. When a cell is irritated, it performs its function irrationally. In this case, the pancreas cannot produce insulin normally. This may lead to diabetes.
When ducts get blocked with gallstones, the bile must still get out into the small intestine. It may take another route and end up in the pancreas. The body is making the best of a bad situation. Trouble with this new pathway is that the bile attacks the pancreas, causing an inflammation of the pancreas and the destruction of the insulin secreting cells of the pancreas. This results in a lack of supply of insulin, leading to high blood sugar (hyperglycaemia). Doing a liver cleanse gives relief to patients suffering from this type of diabetes. Another problem in diabetic patients is the inability of the liver and muscles to pick up glucose from the blood and store it. This is also caused due to the lack of insulin,
Liver Cleanse - Master Cleanse
Ingredients
a) Extra virgin olive oil (250 ml) for a person of about 75 kg or more
b) Fresh juice of oranges, sweet lime (mausami) or pineapple approximately same quantity as oil
c) Epsom salt/magnesium sulphate (MgSO4.7H2O) - quantity four tablespoons (12-15 grams each dosage for a 60 kg person).
d) Water 800 ml
Heavier people should increase their dosage proportionately, based on weight - subject to a maximum of 20 grams x 4 times = 80 grams per person per liver cleanse. Lighter people/people suffering from hypertension should take lower quantity, unless they are on regular medication to control hypertension. People suffering from low BP should also take a reduced dose, since this salt sometimes tends to lower BP marginally.However, there is likely to be no problem if a 50 kg person with BP problem takes a total dose of 80 grams Magnesium Sulphate in one day.
You can substitute the water that is used in this recipe to dissolve Epsom salt with freshly pressed orange/mausambi juice or pineapple or apple juice. That way, you will not feel the unpleasant taste of Epsom salt. However, for best results, take magnesium sulphate in water and observe the better cleansing by way of increased number of stones in diarrhea.
Schedule
When I was on a fruit diet, I passed out the maximum number of stones. The reason is simple. Fruits do not need bile for digestion and the bile is stored. It develops pressure and hence, more stones are passed. Incidentally, now I do my liver cleanse on a working day, with a slight modification in the schedule. I do not take rest the next day.
2:00 pm
6:00 pm
Drink one cup of the mixture of Epsom salt. If you did not prepare this ahead of time, mix Epsom salt in one cup water now. You may add 1/8th tsp Vitamin C powder to improve the taste. You may also drink a few mouthfuls of water afterwards or rinse your mouth. The quantity of water for mixing Epsom salt does not matter. Visit the bathroom, if needed.
8:00 pm
Repeat the procedure by drinking another cup of Epsom salt mixture. You have not eaten since 2 O’clock but you won’t feel hungry. Visit the bathroom, if needed.
9:45 pm
Pour 175 ml extra virgin olive oil into the cup. Wash orange/mausambi. Cut and squeeze into the measuring cup. Remove the seeds. You should have about 175 ml of the juice. Add this to the extra-virgin olive oil. Mix the contents in a mixer/whipper for about 10 seconds. The medicine is ready now. Avoid the use of packed or canned juice because it is processed. It is not fresh and contains preservatives. Visit the bathroom, if needed.
.10:00 pm
Drink the medicine (mixture of oil + juice) now. For some people, drinking through a large plastic straw helps it go down easier You may sip honey in between to help you drink the mixture more easily. Take it all to your bedside if you want but drink it standing up. Get it down within five minutes (15 minutes for very elderly or weak persons).
As soon as the drink is down, walk to your bed and lie down quickly on your right side for about 30 minutes, with your head up high on the pillow. The liver is on the right side. This way, more pressure is created on the bile ducts to push out stones. The sooner you lie down the more stones you will get out. Be ready for bed ahead of time. Do not waste time now to clean up the kitchen etc. Try to think about what is happening in the liver and keep still for at least 30 minutes. You may feel a train of stones travelling along the bile ducts like marbles. There is no pain because the Epsom salt has opened the bile duct valves. Go to sleep. After 30 minutes, you may sleep on any side that suits you. Take sleeping pills in advance, if you expect sleeping problems. Wear loose clothes for sound sleep
6:00 AM
Or whenever you get up next morning, take the third dose of Epsom salt. If you have indigestion or nausea, drink the Epsom salt after it is gone. Go back to bed.
8 .00 AM
After the third dose of Epsom Salt wait for two hours and take a second dose of the extra virgin olive oil and fruit juice mixture (75 ml + 75 ml) and go back to bed, in the same way that you did the previous night.
10.00 AM
Two hours after the third dose of Epsom Salt take the fourth and final dose of Epsom salt.
11.00 AM
You may eat. Start with fruit juice because the digestive system is weak due to Epsom salt. Eat fruit or some light food ½ an hour later. You may eat regular food after one hour but keep it light. By supper, you should feel recovered from the effects of Epsom salt.
Liver cleanse over
You may postpone the entire schedule by a few hours if you go to bed late, around 12 midnight or so, instead of 10 pm like me. Even the gaps between the doses may be increased or decreased up to one hour, in order to suit individual requirements. The serial order of medicines is important.
What to expect immediately after a liver cleanse
Expect diarrhea in the morning. Use a flashlight to look for gallstones with the bowel movement, in the toilet. You can use a net if you have an Indian toilet, to collect the stones. If possible, use a European toilet, so that you can see the stools float. In Indian toilets, they will be washed away. If you are using an Indian toilet, use a strainer or a net to collect stones, otherwise you will not believe that all this was inside you. Loose motions may start at any time after the first dose of Epsom salt. This is due to the cleansing action of the salt in the intestines. However, stones come out only after the third-fourth dose of Epsom salt. They may continue till 2-4 pm. This varies from person to person. Sometimes, the bile ducts are full of cholesterol crystals that did not form into round stones. They appear as chaff floating on top of the toilet bowl water. It may be tan coloured, harbouring thousands of tiny white crystals. Cleansing this chaff is just as important as purging the stones.
Mild diarrhea is not a serious side effect at all. Hospitals today are full of patients who have fallen victim to the side effects of drugs and anti-biotics. Drugs drain the body of nutrition and the vast majority of the patients are anaemic.
During diarrhea, the body feels some weakness. Epsom salt is not accepted by the body. So the blood releases a lot of water through the intestines to flush out Epsom salt. In this process, the valves inside the capillaries of the liver and gall bladder get opened. Then the stones pass out easily. The release of this water for diarrhea carries out some essential mineral and nutrients. So the body loses some source of energy, which it takes some time to recover. Hence we recommend a gap of two weeks between two liver cleanses. Avoid cleansing when you are ill.
Contradiction
This cleansing procedure contradicts many modern medical viewpoints. Gallstones are thought to be formed in the gallbladder, not the liver. They are thought to be few, not thousands. They are not linked to pains other than gallbladder attacks. It is easy to understand why this thought is prevalent - by the time you have acute pain attacks, some stones in the gallbladder are big enough and sufficiently calcified to be seen on an X-ray or radiograph. When the gallbladder is removed, the acute attacks are gone but the bursitis and other pains and digestive problems remain.
Facts
The truth is self-evident. People who have had their gallbladder removed surgically still get plenty of green, bile coated stones and anyone who decides to dissect their stones can see that the concentric circles and crystals of cholesterol exactly match textbook pictures of gallstones. Such gallstones are from bile ducts.

- Digestion: :The liver helps in the digestion and assimilation of carbohydrates, fats and proteins which are the main components of food. The bile juice that is produced by the liver and stored in the gall bladder helps in the digestion of fats. The liver excretes the bile pigments - bilirubin and biliverdin formed in the cells by the digestion of worn out red blood cells.
- Metabolism:: It breaks down the carbohydrates and converts them to glycogen which is stored in the liver and converted to glucose whenever and wherever in the body energy is needed
- Detoxification: As the blood from the portal vein passes through the liver it removes many potentially toxic substances. It also converts alcohol and drugs into inactive and less harmful substances
- Storage: :Glycogen converted from carbohydrates is stored in the liver and converted to glucose whenever and wherever in the body energy is needed. Fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, K, and B12, and the minerals iron and copper are also stored in the liver and released, providing a constant supply of these essential substances to the tissues of the body.
- Production:: The liver uses amino acids and coverts them into proteins; such as albumin, prothrombin components, fibrinogen, transferrin and glycoprotein.
- Immunity:: Kupffer cells of the liver capture and digest bacteria, fungi, parasites, worn-out blood cells, and cellular debris. The large volume of blood passing through the hepatic portal system and the liver allows these cells to clean large volumes of blood very quickly.

Symptoms when Gallstones are the Problem
- Gallstones can cause symptoms such as gas in the stomach, intestinal gas or cramping in the stomach.
- Gallstones are also known to cause abdominal pain, which could be transmitted to the right shoulder.
- If a gallstone remains lodged in the bile duct for a long time, there will be a build-up of bile behind it. This can result in obstructive jaundice.

Liver Cleanse - Master Cleanse
Ingredients
a) Extra virgin olive oil (250 ml) for a person of about 75 kg or more
b) Fresh juice of oranges, sweet lime (mausami) or pineapple approximately same quantity as oil
c) Epsom salt/magnesium sulphate (MgSO4.7H2O) - quantity four tablespoons (12-15 grams each dosage for a 60 kg person).
d) Water 800 ml
Heavier people should increase their dosage proportionately, based on weight - subject to a maximum of 20 grams x 4 times = 80 grams per person per liver cleanse. Lighter people/people suffering from hypertension should take lower quantity, unless they are on regular medication to control hypertension. People suffering from low BP should also take a reduced dose, since this salt sometimes tends to lower BP marginally.However, there is likely to be no problem if a 50 kg person with BP problem takes a total dose of 80 grams Magnesium Sulphate in one day.
You can substitute the water that is used in this recipe to dissolve Epsom salt with freshly pressed orange/mausambi juice or pineapple or apple juice. That way, you will not feel the unpleasant taste of Epsom salt. However, for best results, take magnesium sulphate in water and observe the better cleansing by way of increased number of stones in diarrhea.
Schedule
- Choose a day like Saturday for the liver cleanse, so that you can take rest the next day.
- Have a light dinner on the previous evening. Eat a light breakfast and lunch which is easy to digest. This allows the bile to build up, since bile is less required for digestion of light food. This develops pressure in the liver. Higher pressure pushes out more stones.
- The whole liver cleansing process can be scheduled between 2.00 PM on the first day to 11 AM on the following day.
When I was on a fruit diet, I passed out the maximum number of stones. The reason is simple. Fruits do not need bile for digestion and the bile is stored. It develops pressure and hence, more stones are passed. Incidentally, now I do my liver cleanse on a working day, with a slight modification in the schedule. I do not take rest the next day.
2:00 pm
- Stop any other cleansing programs like the kidney cleanse, acidity cleanse, parasite cleanse and zapper.programs at 2 pm, i.e. four hours before the scheduled liver cleanse program begins. Continue other unavoidable medication, e.g. for blood pressure etc that you take regularly.
- Get your Epsom salt ready. Mix 20 grams X 4 = 80 grams Epsom salt (individual needs may vary) in four cups water. This makes four servings. Keep the jar in a refrigerator to cool the liquid (this refrigeration is for convenience and taste only).
6:00 pm
Drink one cup of the mixture of Epsom salt. If you did not prepare this ahead of time, mix Epsom salt in one cup water now. You may add 1/8th tsp Vitamin C powder to improve the taste. You may also drink a few mouthfuls of water afterwards or rinse your mouth. The quantity of water for mixing Epsom salt does not matter. Visit the bathroom, if needed.
8:00 pm
Repeat the procedure by drinking another cup of Epsom salt mixture. You have not eaten since 2 O’clock but you won’t feel hungry. Visit the bathroom, if needed.
9:45 pm
Pour 175 ml extra virgin olive oil into the cup. Wash orange/mausambi. Cut and squeeze into the measuring cup. Remove the seeds. You should have about 175 ml of the juice. Add this to the extra-virgin olive oil. Mix the contents in a mixer/whipper for about 10 seconds. The medicine is ready now. Avoid the use of packed or canned juice because it is processed. It is not fresh and contains preservatives. Visit the bathroom, if needed.
.10:00 pm
Drink the medicine (mixture of oil + juice) now. For some people, drinking through a large plastic straw helps it go down easier You may sip honey in between to help you drink the mixture more easily. Take it all to your bedside if you want but drink it standing up. Get it down within five minutes (15 minutes for very elderly or weak persons).
As soon as the drink is down, walk to your bed and lie down quickly on your right side for about 30 minutes, with your head up high on the pillow. The liver is on the right side. This way, more pressure is created on the bile ducts to push out stones. The sooner you lie down the more stones you will get out. Be ready for bed ahead of time. Do not waste time now to clean up the kitchen etc. Try to think about what is happening in the liver and keep still for at least 30 minutes. You may feel a train of stones travelling along the bile ducts like marbles. There is no pain because the Epsom salt has opened the bile duct valves. Go to sleep. After 30 minutes, you may sleep on any side that suits you. Take sleeping pills in advance, if you expect sleeping problems. Wear loose clothes for sound sleep
6:00 AM
Or whenever you get up next morning, take the third dose of Epsom salt. If you have indigestion or nausea, drink the Epsom salt after it is gone. Go back to bed.
8 .00 AM
After the third dose of Epsom Salt wait for two hours and take a second dose of the extra virgin olive oil and fruit juice mixture (75 ml + 75 ml) and go back to bed, in the same way that you did the previous night.
10.00 AM
Two hours after the third dose of Epsom Salt take the fourth and final dose of Epsom salt.
11.00 AM
You may eat. Start with fruit juice because the digestive system is weak due to Epsom salt. Eat fruit or some light food ½ an hour later. You may eat regular food after one hour but keep it light. By supper, you should feel recovered from the effects of Epsom salt.

You may postpone the entire schedule by a few hours if you go to bed late, around 12 midnight or so, instead of 10 pm like me. Even the gaps between the doses may be increased or decreased up to one hour, in order to suit individual requirements. The serial order of medicines is important.
What to expect immediately after a liver cleanse
Expect diarrhea in the morning. Use a flashlight to look for gallstones with the bowel movement, in the toilet. You can use a net if you have an Indian toilet, to collect the stones. If possible, use a European toilet, so that you can see the stools float. In Indian toilets, they will be washed away. If you are using an Indian toilet, use a strainer or a net to collect stones, otherwise you will not believe that all this was inside you. Loose motions may start at any time after the first dose of Epsom salt. This is due to the cleansing action of the salt in the intestines. However, stones come out only after the third-fourth dose of Epsom salt. They may continue till 2-4 pm. This varies from person to person. Sometimes, the bile ducts are full of cholesterol crystals that did not form into round stones. They appear as chaff floating on top of the toilet bowl water. It may be tan coloured, harbouring thousands of tiny white crystals. Cleansing this chaff is just as important as purging the stones.
Mild diarrhea is not a serious side effect at all. Hospitals today are full of patients who have fallen victim to the side effects of drugs and anti-biotics. Drugs drain the body of nutrition and the vast majority of the patients are anaemic.
During diarrhea, the body feels some weakness. Epsom salt is not accepted by the body. So the blood releases a lot of water through the intestines to flush out Epsom salt. In this process, the valves inside the capillaries of the liver and gall bladder get opened. Then the stones pass out easily. The release of this water for diarrhea carries out some essential mineral and nutrients. So the body loses some source of energy, which it takes some time to recover. Hence we recommend a gap of two weeks between two liver cleanses. Avoid cleansing when you are ill.
Contradiction
This cleansing procedure contradicts many modern medical viewpoints. Gallstones are thought to be formed in the gallbladder, not the liver. They are thought to be few, not thousands. They are not linked to pains other than gallbladder attacks. It is easy to understand why this thought is prevalent - by the time you have acute pain attacks, some stones in the gallbladder are big enough and sufficiently calcified to be seen on an X-ray or radiograph. When the gallbladder is removed, the acute attacks are gone but the bursitis and other pains and digestive problems remain.
Facts
The truth is self-evident. People who have had their gallbladder removed surgically still get plenty of green, bile coated stones and anyone who decides to dissect their stones can see that the concentric circles and crystals of cholesterol exactly match textbook pictures of gallstones. Such gallstones are from bile ducts.
