Liver is the second largest organ we have in our body. It sits on the right hand side of the abdomen. It is right behind the bottom of our rib cage. Everything we eat, breath, or put on our skin gets filtered by our liver. It produces bile. It stores vitamins and minerals.
Signs:
Some signs of bad or over worked liver are the white coatings of the tongue (Halitosis), fatigue, digestive disorders like constipation, allergies and chemical sensitivity, unexplained weight loss, jaundice , edema (swelling and water retention), dark circles under eyes, and mental confusion.
Cure:
The first and most important thing that you could do for your liver and body is to start the day with room temperature water and few drops of fresh lemon juice from the real lemon. It only takes one day to see the results! Look at your tongue now!
Then eat food loaded with vegetables and fruits and lower in saturated fats.
Eat less or don't eat fried foods.
Always coat your liver with milk thistle tablets before x-rays or any radiation therapies.

Thyroid- Underactive
Under active Thyroid (Hypothyroidism):
Your thyroid gland and your metabolism are closely related to each other. How fast you burn food and all chemical actions in the body, from making hormones and enzymes, to digesting food and re-building cells are related to your thyroid function. All these actions create heat as a side-effect. Any machine when it works becomes hot. You can find if your metabolism work efficiently by taking your body temperature.
Deficiency in thyroid hormones can affect all body functions. Following are the symptoms of sluggish thyroid:
fatigue and exhaustion

The most common cause of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto's thyroiditis, a hereditary condition in which the immune system attacks the thyroid. Hashimoto's thyroiditis is seven times more common in women than in men.A simple blood test can detect the thyroid function by measuring your TSH. Some people can go undiagnosed because they have a mild form of Hypothyroidism. If your first TSH test was normal and you still have the symtoms associated with low thyroid levels you should try and test for TRH.
After you know for sure you have a low TSH; In order to fix this problem- First you try to amend your diet with Salt that has Iodines. Remember when cooking with Iodine enriched salt, the Iodine will evaporate in cooking. Therefore add the salt later. Consume food that has Iodine; for example sea salt, radishes and kelp.
Do not eat the following foods raw: You have to cook them for few minutes. Apples, Peaches, Garlic, Broccoli, Turnips, Green leafy vegetables. If still your levels stay low, you should supplement with the correct dose of Thyroid Hormone. These pills are the best in the market. They are safe and they exactly emulate the missing Thyroid Hormone in the body.

The hypothalamus is a gland in our brain that secretes Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone (TRH). When TRH is released, it stimulates the pituitary gland in the brain to release Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH). TSH stimulates the thyroid itself to make thyroid hormones.The first and fastest test of thyroid function is the TSH test, which measures the circulating level of TSH in the bloodstream at one point in time. The TRH test is different. A baseline TSH test is done. Then you are given an injection of TRH, which stimulates the pituitary to release TSH. A second blood sample is drawn 30 minutes later, and the TSH level is retested.
After you know for sure you have a low TSH; In order to fix this problem- First you try to amend your diet with Salt that has Iodines. Remember when cooking with Iodine enriched salt, the Iodine will evaporate in cooking. Therefore add the salt later. Consume food that has Iodine; for example sea salt, radishes and kelp.

The chart below will help you read your thyroid blood test.
| TSH | T4 | T3 | End Results |
|---|---|---|---|
| High | Normal | Normal | Mild (subclinical) Hypothyroidism |
| High | Low | Low or normal | Hypothyroidism |
| Low | Normal | Normal | Mild (subclinical) Hypothyroidism |
| Low | High or normal | High or normal | Hyperthyroidism |
| Low | Low or normal | Low or normal | Nonthyroidal illness; rare pituitary (secondary) hypothyroidism |
