Borax Safe With Liver Disease?

Posted by Sandra (Alabama) on 02/02/2017

Had hep c, went through 2nd generation cure, have not enough healthy liver left to regenerate. On transplant list, but with cutting down on salt, taking flax and chia seed daily, my meld score is way down.

However, still have some issues with some things controlled by liver, i.e. libido, (married, children finally out of house, yes, it matters) recently ruptured varices in esophagus, they put me on antibiotics, swelled up after, started with garlic and apple cider vinegar. thrush is better, swelling gone down, but still have some symptoms of yeast.

Will borax be safe for me to take? Any contraindications for liver failure?

In reply to Sandra (Alabama),

You might consider reading about and contacting Dr. Burt Berkson in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Even if you can't go to see him, he may be able to make recommendations to you and your doctor that you can use while waiting for your liver transplant. He is more specialized in natural treatments of liver cancer, but has worked with patients with hepatitis c.

Here is a link to an article that discusses three patients that he treated who had hepatitis c and other complications:

Well wishes to you!

Sandra: There is much info about a semi-natural compound called BHT that is quite effective for most cases of Hep, and there are herbs like St Joh'n'sWort and Chanca Piedra that are also effective.

With the Esophagus problem DO NOT drink ACV, rather take maybe one tablet daily. Borax is likely not needed, but some alkalizing or buffering remedies will be (info on E.C. at top page). A good natural form of Vit-C like with Rose Hips should keep the ascites problem down.

Now on to Cirrhosis. Check out http://www.liversupport.com/ for your specific condition and shop for a natural product(s) that will address specifically. In addition to these support nutrients, eat cooked Chicken or Calf Liver (I go for the KFC often) regularly or take a Raw Liver tablets daily. It will also speed or augment healthy Liver regeneration to boost natural production of HGH or Human Growth Hormone which converts into IGF-1 by taking 1 grm GABA daily. If you don't feel a difference with the GABA this means likely not converting these hormones because of sick liver, so go for a nutritional supplement of IGF-1.

Let me know how your doing.

Consider rebuilding bone marrow quantity and quality. This will increase available stem cells for tissue regeneration. Consider hair analysis to determine mineral levels in body.
