liver problems

[jackie08]

Can anyone explain to me what a stressed liver is

[chinadog]

Basically a stressed liver is due to over indulging with food and drink jackie. A detox will help,drink lots of water and eat a healthy diet. Milk Thistle tablets help as well.

Could be worried about bringing in the bacon.....

There is no such term in the medical world.

Totally meaningless phrase.

[jackie08]

Hi sqad6`7 you say there is no such term in the medical world but that is what my aunt was told by her doctor.

[sqad617]

What doctors tell patients is often completely different from what patients think that the doctor has said and by the time it has been told a few times, it bears little or no relation to what the doctor ACTUALLY said.

apparently so http://www.getalife.net.au/mag/liverstress_htm l

[sqad617]

apparently not....that is a non recognized medical site.

Google any medical directory and type in "stressed liver" and I doubt that anything will come up.

I agree sqad.
It IS something a doctor would tell a particularl sort of patient, but has no real medical meaning...

[sqad617]

reefgal quotes a website getalife...which to me sums it up.

squad617...I googled the link for jackie08
the link was to help jackie08 understand what a STRESSED LIVER is. wether its a medical term or not.

[sqad617]

reefgal you are quite correct and I apologise.

I was under the misapprehension that it was a medical term.

Hi sqad, I googled Stressed Liver and several links showed up.
