You probably haven't given much thought to your liver, but its health is the key to your overall health and even your weight.

It’s the largest solid organ and the largest gland in the human body. It carries out over 500 essential tasks that help keep the

body healthy. The liver plays a central role in all metabolic processes in the body. In fat metabolism, the liver cells break down

fats and produce energy. The liver's role is therefore crucial for efficient circulation, metabolism, and fat breakdown.

YOUR LIVERRehab

5

The liver is your first line of defense against

toxins. It prevents toxins and other substances

from passing into the bloodstream by filtering

the blood that comes from your digestive tract

before transmitting it through the rest of your

body. Because the liver is such a huge part of

the digestive system, a healthy liver benefits

almost every aspect of your health. A healthy,

well-functioning liver can help you

experience…

• More Energy

• Clearer Skin

• Regular

Hormone Cycles

• Stronger Immune

System

• Regular

Digestion

• Better Oral

Health

• Normal Weight

6

The liver is the body’s detox powerhouse; it takes the brunt of all the toxins we encounter

in modern life. No matter how hard you try to keep your diet and environment clean, you

just can't avoid all the harmful toxins in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the soil

in which our food is grown.

The liver is the ultimate multi-tasker. It acts as a filter to remove toxins, it aids in digestion

by producing bile to help break down fat and absorb fat- and water-soluble vitamins

and minerals, and it plays a part in regulating glucose, blood pressure, blood sugar,

insulin, estrogen, testosterone, and immunity.

7

This quote from American philosopher William James

reminds us that the health of the liver is the key to living a

healthy life. The liver plays several roles in the regulation of

the blood, breaks down insulin, breaks down toxic

substances, and allows them to be excreted. Of the

approximately 500 functions performed by the liver, the

most important include synthesis of amino acids and

cholesterol; metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and

fats; and the production of bile which assists digestion in

the small intestine.

“Is life worth living? It

depends on the liver.”

~ William James

The liver supports almost

every other organ in the

body. If you want to live, you will need a healthy liver.

8

YOUR BODY’S DETOX FACTORY

A ventilator can take over for the lungs. An artificial pump can replace your heart. The liver’s functions are so

complex that its only replacement is a transplanted liver. If liver disease sets in, it affects just about every

organ of the body, including the kidneys, lungs, and heart. Without a healthy liver, it’s nearly impossible to

have a properly functioning metabolism, healthy circulation, balanced hormones, and strong digestion.

Everything you swallow is filtered by the liver. Food, drinks, and medicines are

digested by the stomach and processed by the intestines, then they get absorbed

into the blood and filtered by the liver.

9

Because of the vital importance

of the liver and its functions,

evolution has ensured that it

can regenerate itself.

With consistent nutritional

supplementation, the liver cannot

only release toxins, but

regenerate cells and rejuvenate

the complete organ.

This Gives You The Power To Take Back Your Health!

“Water before a meal is nectar. It replenishes fluids and encourages juicy digestive organs. Small sips

during a meal is honey. It helps turn the food into a sauce. Water after a meal is poison because it

dilutes stomach acids.” – Dr. Vasant Lad

In case you haven’t heard, getting enough water in our diet is kind of a big deal. There are so many

reasons for, and benefits to, increasing our daily water intake that skipping out on this foundation of

life just doesn’t make sense. Drinking more water, or rather sipping more water, is about preventing

dehydration as much as it is about replenishing and exchanging the fluids in our body, keeping our

cells hydrated, and keeping our blood alkaline.

19

• Our blood is 96% water; it helps transport nutrients &

oxygen (and components of the immune system) to all

cells of the body (which differ in size and hold differing

amounts of water)

• The brain is 75% water, the heart 75%, the lungs 86%, the

liver 85%, the kidneys 83%, bones 22%, and both saliva

and perspiration are 95% water

• On average, water makes up 60 - 70% of body weight.

Babies have the most water, being born at about 78%.

By one year of age, that amount drops to about 65%.

Adult men’s bodies are about 60% water, and adult

women have about 55% of their bodies made of water

20

Essential systems throughout the

body can become impaired if

the body does not receive a

continuous, safe, and reliable

supply of water. The vast

majority of people are

chronically dehydrated, and

over time, long-term health

conditions can develop.

Dehydration causes toxins to

build up in the body due to

infrequent urination. With

dehydration, your blood

becomes thicker, resulting in

the liver not being able to

properly filter toxins which can

potentially lead to damage of

other organs.

Dehydration is the result for

many as they select

alternatives like alcohol,

caffeinated drinks, and sugar-

laden water replacements that

worsen dehydration. The

dehydration process is

essentially compounding itself

and resulting inflammation.

21

ABSORB MORE WATER. HYDRATE BETTER.

One of the simplest and most dramatic ways we can improve how

much water our body absorbs, and increase our overall health at every

level, is to add nutrients that the water molecules can bind to. Then

sipping the enhanced water so that our body and cells absorb the

added nutrients.

"Time-restricted eating didn't just prevent but also reversed

obesity,” says Satchidananda Panda, an associate professor

at the Salk Institute who oversaw the studies. “That was

exciting to see...”

Precisely how a time-based eating pattern staved off weight

gain and illness is not fully understood, but Dr. Panda and his

colleagues believe that the time at which food is eaten

influences a body's internal clock.

“Mealtimes have more effect on circadian rhythm than dark

and light cycles. And circadian rhythm in turn affects the

function of many genes in the body that are known to

involve metabolism,“ Dr. Panda says.

INTERMITTENT FASTdeep cleansing takes [a night’s] time

23

Your body has only so much energy each day to perform all of

the complicated, behind-the-scenes work that keeps you alive.

That energy is limited, so your body must constantly prioritize

how it’s distributing energy, what functions are being

performed first, and what the priorities are.

Digestion is one of the most energy consuming functions of the

body (we’re all too familiar with food comas). So if your body is

constantly tied up with the process of digestion, it will put

deeper cleansing on hold.

When you limit eating to a 12-hour window, you give your body

a break from digesting food. Since so much of your daily

energy goes to digesting the foods that you eat, your body will

have a lot more freed-up energy when you are fasting,

Your body will use this extra energy to perform functions that it

normally doesn't have enough time to. For instance, like healing

old wounds and removing built-up toxins that have been in your

body for years.

After your evening meal, leave a twelve-hour window before

having your morning meal. If you have your evening meal at 7

pm, you should have your morning meal at 7 am or later.

Contain your eating to 12 hours a day or less. And pay attention

to when you begin. The clock starts, Dr. Panda says, with “that

first cup of coffee with cream and sugar in the morning.”

If you fill your belly late at night and then eat

early again the next day, your body isn’t given

the time or opportunity to clean house.

WHY FASTING MAKES SENSE

24

The twelve-hour window can be a challenge to make happen every day but committing to it will help you get the most

out of your new HBN Cleanse lifestyle. The twelve-hour eating schedule will become your new normal. This is how you will

eat every day so that your body will always have time to divert energy to functions other than digestion.

The body sends the signal to go into deep detox mode approximately eight hours after your last meal.

Then the body needs another four hours to do a deep clean.

“Sleep services all aspects of our body in one way or

intellectual function, alertness, and mood,” says Dr.

National Institutes of Health (NIH), in a story on the

NIH website.

ESSENTIAL OILS & YOUR LIVER

As the metabolic powerhouse of the body, our liver is

responsible for processing proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and

other nutrients into forms more easily utilized by the rest of our

body. The liver also plays a vital role in clearing the blood of

drugs, alcohol, and other substances that may be potentially

harmful or toxic.

Many essential oils are hepatic in nature, which means that

they stimulate, strengthen, and tone the liver, thereby helping

increase bile flow and detoxification. Essential oils, combined

with other modalities, can be a great way to support the liver

as it does its important job.

There are thousands of different

kinds of molecules in essential oils,

many of which mimic the

molecules used by our bodies for

support, maintenance, and

regeneration.

The chemical constituents

contained in essential oil

molecules can produce

therapeutic effects through their

interaction with the cells in our

bodies.

35

HepaDetox is a blend of essential oils that are known

to help the liver detox and also to regenerate and

rebuild liver cells. It is important to protect the liver

and to help it detox when possible. The liver must deal

with everyday toxins such as drugs and alcohol, food

additives, and any other poisons that find their way

into the digestive system along with toxins that we

breathe in or are exposed to through the skin

Carrot Seed is a very full essential oil, and therefore a

precious aid in therapy, and able to be assimilated just as

well through the skin as orally. It has the strongest affinity for

the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and skin. It is an anti-

inflammatory agent which may assist the body with

cardiovascular functions.

Carrot Seed is an excellent purifier due to its detoxifying

effect on the liver. It is both diuretic and hepatic, operating

well as both a kidney and liver cleanser.

An animal study suggests that Carrot Seed may be an

effective antioxidant with benefits against liver damage.

have been studied and proven by the scientific community.

Cooling properties that help ease pain, inflammation, and

muscle cramps and spasms are one of the biggest reasons

Peppermint oil is so popular.

mentha piperita

Peppermint stimulates bile flow

while relaxing bile ducts and

helping to break down fats. It can

be beneficial in the reduction of

Autumn.

Rosehip Oil has been used in aromatherapy for centuries,

and according to a 2009 study, inhaling Rosehip Oil reduces

autonomic responses like systolic blood pressure, blood

oxygen saturation, and breathing rate. Additionally,

participants who inhaled Rosehip Oil were calmer and more

relaxed than those in the control group.

"In a healthy body, the process of detoxification runs

smoothly," says Dr. Mark Hyman, a functional medicine

doctor and New York Times best-selling author.

"When you become toxic, the mechanism for detoxification

in the liver gets sluggish, and certain toxins can remain

active longer than we want or than our systems can handle.

This makes us sick and impedes normal metabolism. It also

causes fluid retention, bloat, and puffiness.“

Lemon juice helps detox the body by aiding in the removal

of toxins that can build up in the liver.

High in Vitamin C, a natural

antioxidant, Lemons are

known to be a terrific

antiseptic and digestive aid.
