The Liver: Detox the Body

The Liver: Detox the Body

The liver is one of the body’s hardest-working organs, and when it comes to detoxification, it’s the superstar. Acting as your body’s natural filter, the liver processes everything from toxins and chemicals to the fats and sugars you consume daily. But just like any hardworking system, the liver can get overloaded. All we need is a little daily support and regular detoxification to keep this critical organ functioning well!

THE LIVER AT A GLANCE

Filters toxins, chemicals, and waste from the bloodstream on a constant basis
Regulates blood sugar, fat storage, and energy production
Bile production in the liver supports digestion and fat absorption.
Helps balance hormones, including stress and reproductive hormones
Is linked to emotions like anger and stress
Can easily get overwhelmed with our current lifestyles, sugar, or alcohol consumption
Can easily be supported daily with supplements and simple habits

The liver works tirelessly to filter toxins, regulate metabolism, and support digestion, but in today’s world, it can become overburdened by processed foods, environmental toxins, and stress.

Supporting liver health requires a balance of gentle, daily habits along with occasional intentional cleanses to help reset and rejuvenate its function.

THE GALLBLADDER

The gallbladder is a small but vital organ that stores and releases bile, a digestive fluid essential for breaking down fats. When functioning optimally, it supports smooth digestion and nutrient absorption, but poor diet and sluggish bile flow can lead to discomfort and gallstones.

The liver and gallbladder work closely together in the process of filtering things in the body. While the liver produces bile to break down fats and eliminate waste, the gallbladder stores and releases that bile into the digestive system when needed.

But over time, these organs get congested and can’t function at their best. Supporting the gallbladder naturally with bitter foods, hydration, and gentle detox practices helps maintain its health and prevent stagnation.

THE LIVER AND EMOTIONS

In traditional and holistic medicine, the liver is closely linked to emotional well-being, particularly in storing unresolved emotions like anger, frustration, and stress.

When the liver becomes stagnant or overburdened, these emotions can manifest as irritability, mood swings, or even physical tension in the body.

Releasing stored emotions and supporting the liver requires a combination of mindful practices, nourishing foods, and natural remedies that encourage both physical and emotional detoxification. Essential oils, breathwork, and intentional self-care can help clear emotional blockages and restore balance.
Use essential oils like Lavender, Frankincense, and Valor or Peace & Calming to soothe stress and encourage emotional release.
Practice deep breathing or meditation to calm the nervous system and support liver function. This is wonderful when paired with Valor or Peace & Calming, as both of these oils contain Blue Tansy, which is known to calm the nervous system.
Incorporate liver-supporting supplement to aid detoxification.
Engage in gentle movement like yoga or stretching to release stored tension and energy. Diffuse and apply oils before and during your practice.
Journal or practice emotional release techniques to process and let go of pent-up anger or frustration. This is another great time to diffuse and apply your oil(s) of choice.

LIVER CLEANSING

A sluggish liver can lead to fatigue, weight gain, skin issues, and digestive problems. That’s why a targeted cleanse, one that supports both liver and gallbladder health, is so important.

The Cleansing Trio is a wonderful option for a more in-depth cleanse.

This bundle of ICP, Comfortone, and Essentialzyme supplements was paired together as an excellent means of cleansing the body's system and supporting a healthy liver.
As Essentialzyme stimulates natural enzyme activity in the body, ICP introduces a unique blend of fibers that assist in eliminating waste.
Comfortone then promotes a gentle boost in supporting digestive health and wellness.
This is a great trio for the liver and colon, and is a good one to do after a NingXia Reset for deeper cleansing

Life Essentials 2 Kit is another cleansing option.

This curated cleanse is similar to the Cleansing Trio, with the addition of DiGize oil blend!
Includes Daily Prebiotic Fiber Powder, ComforTone capsules, Essentialzymes tablets, and DiGize Vitality essential oil blend
Provides the body with daily fiber to help cleanse, digestive enzymes and essential oils to comfort and soothe digestion, and herbs to help remove toxins.
This is a great trio for the liver and colon, and is a good one to do after a NingXia Reset for deeper cleansing.

DAILY HABITS FOR A HEALTHY LIVER

Supporting liver health requires a balance of gentle, daily habits—like staying hydrated, eating whole foods, and incorporating liver-loving herbs such as milk thistle and dandelion—along with occasional intentional cleanses to help reset and rejuvenate its function.

Regular movement, dry brushing, and essential oils can also aid the body’s natural detox pathways, ensuring the liver remains strong and resilient for overall well-being.

Drink lots of water with minerals!! Add Mineral Essence to your water as well as salt or electrolyte packets.
Eat liver-cleansing foods–beets, leafy greens, and lemons that stimulate bile production and flush out toxins.
Add JuvaPower powder to your routine. This is a food-based, nutrient-dense, antioxidant-packed powder that supports a healthy liver through plants–spinach, beets, broccoli, flax, barley (and more!), and essential oils.
Add JuvaTone as a daily supplement. It is an excellent source of choline, berberine and dl-methionine, which helps with normal excretion and recycles glutathione, the body's innate, natural antioxidant.
Use JuvaCleanse essential oil blend. This blend of Celery Seed, Ledum, Helichrysum, and other oils that have long been known for their cleansing properties.
Use with a castor oil pack for cleansing and overall liver health, and/or add it to an empty vegetable capsule with olive oil to use as a supplement while cleansing.

JuvaTone and JuvaPower work really well together for a whole body, whole life liver support protocol. If you have to choose, start with JuvaTone, but ideally you would use both together.

By incorporating these habits & supplements into your routine, along with plenty of water and fiber, you can help your liver and gallbladder do what they do best—detox the body and keep your systems running smoothly.

ESSENTIAL OILS

When you have a cough or cold or feel one coming on, you just want to be comfortable – especially if you still have to work, travel, or take care of your children or loved ones! (click on the individual oil pictures to learn more about the oil)

Thieves Essential Oil Blend:

This blend is our go-to for all things immune system related! It's the blend infused into the chest rub and cough drops we just talked about – and for good reason! We love to apply and diffuse this blend, add Thieves Vitality to a mug of echinacea tea, or add it to epsom salts for an immune supporting detox bath!

Frankincense Essential Oil:

Frankincense is an immune and respiratory powerhouse! This historical oil has been used for centuries for health. Apply it with Thieves, Lemon, R.C. or Purification to the chest and back, add a few drops to the Thieves Chest Rub when you apply, add Frankincense to epsom salts for a detox bath, and diffuse this oil when you're feeling down. Get it in, on and around you as much as possible!

Lemon Essential Oil:

Lemon is a wonderful oil for soothing cough and creating comfort in times of congestion. Diffuse it, apply it with Frankincense and Thieves Chest Rub, add a few drops of Lemon Vitality to echinacea tea, and add Lemon to detox baths. Lemon is high in limonene, a constituent highly regarded for its immune system support.

R.C. Essential Oil Blend:

Standing for Respiratory Comfort, R.C. essential oil blend is a gentle eucalyptus blend that we love for soothing and comforting the respiratory system. Diffuse, apply, and add this oil to detox baths as much as possible. This is a great choice for little ones too!

Purification Essential Oil Blends:

This purifying blend is another favorite for immune and respiratory needs. Containing Tea Tree, Lemongrass, Myrtle and other purifying oils, it makes a great addition to your comfort routine during times of cough or cold. Diffuse, apply, and add to bath salts.

Raindrop Technique Collection: This curated set of essential oils is a powerful tool for promoting health, wellness and vitality – both proactively and for acute needs since the oils included can be incredible tools for healing! This collection features nine essential oils with immune and respiratory support properties. We love them for making rollers and adding to detox baths!

Thieves chest rub & cough

THIEVES CHEST RUB

A must-have for every medicine cabinet, Thieves Chest Rub is a 100% plant-based alternative for over-the-counter cough and congestion relief. This natural chest rub soothes sniffles, coughs, and congestion for the whole family with a powerful blend of essential oils and natural, plant-based ingredients.Plus the easy-to-use bottle doesn't even require you to get your hands messy!! The formula is free of petroleum, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, synthetic perfumes or dyes, artificial colors, or preservatives and still packs an incredible punch when it comes to cough and cold! Pure ingredients and all the power of Thieves kicking that chest congestion to the curb? We will take some of that!

Sadly, conventional chest rubs are filled with synthetic additives and diluents, and even the ‘natural' options are less than ideal. Many options use petroleum as a base. Petroleum (petrolatum) is often not fully refined in the US, which means it can be contaminated with toxic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Many ‘natural' chest rubs also contain impure essential oils or other lower-grade components that don't meet the same standards as the ingredients found in Young Living products. The active ingredient in the most popular over the counter chest rub is actually a synthetic version of Ravintsara essential oil! And we are always going to choose the original over a synthetic copy, especially when it comes to our health and our family's health!

THIEVES COUGH DROPS

Get natural, quick, and safe cough, congestion, and sore throat relief Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops! These are a staple in our cough and cold toolbox. They are easy to keep at home or take on the go, made with naturally derived ingredients, taste great, and work wonders!

Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops are minty, spicy, and sweet without processed sugar, dyes, artificial flavors, or preservatives found in conventional cough drops. Infused with Cinnamon Bark, Peppermint, and Lemon essential oils, these menthol-based drops make soothing coughs and colds simple and tasty.

THIEVES HARD LOZENGES

Infused with Young Living's signature Thieves essential oil blend of Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, and Lemon essential oils, these lozenges are one of the things we reach for to keep our immune systems firing on a daily basis! The Thieves Hard Lozenges are a sugar-free dietary supplement to add to your daily wellness regimen with more of a cinnamon taste than a menthol one.We use these daily when we need a lozenge, when we travel to bolster our immune systems, and sometimes in place of the Thieves Cough Drops when we are out or if someone doesn't want the strong menthol taste of the drops (but it's that menthol that helps open the airways and soothe the throat!).
