Never underestimate the power of your mind to affect your health!
I’d had a nasty sore throat and chesty cold and had to start taking my puffers which I rarely need to do. Since I’d felt really bad when taking the puffers with palpitations and generally a nasty reaction I made an appointment with our GP and he took some routine blood tests. When a letter arrived a week later with the results showing a mild elevation of two liver enzymes I was feeling better by this time so I wasn’t that worried. However the letter suggested that if I’d consumed alcohol the day before the test then this might have influenced the result. Since I hadn’t had a drink for the last couple of months this rattled me a little.
So off I went to my trusty bookshelf and found the excellent book by Xandria Williams called The Liver Detox Plan: The Revolutionary Way to Cleanse and Revive Your Body
This is an excellent book which explains how important your liver is, how it affects your health if it’s under stress and how you can adjust your diet to lessen the load on your liver which will help it recuperate. It’s not a new book – first published in 1998 – but well worth a read if you’re looking to detox.
What I like about this book is that it concentrates on how you can make a difference in your life and the health of your liver by practical means using diet mainly but also suggesting supplements and herbal remedies for those who wish to take these.
So I re-read the book and have decided to try to improve my diet. I’ve added a couple of supplements to my daily routine – although I don’t always remember to take them.
Deciding to take my health into my own hands I felt good again in contrast to the way I felt when I received the letter.
You’ve got to ask yourself why a few printed words on a piece of paper can affect the way you feel. But it can do!
By the way the repeat blood test was fine!!
