Barbara O'Neill - COMPASS - Part 9 - The function Of The Liver [2] - Detoxing The Liver
Introduction and Opening Remarks
The video begins with music playing and applause from the audience. The speaker thanks everyone for being present.
Transition to Main Topic
The music continues playing in the background.
Introduction to Liver Detoxification
The speaker expresses gratitude for the liver's ability to manage and deal with environmental poisons in our bodies. They mention that at Misty Mountain Health Retreat, guests undergo a fast after having lunch on Sunday, followed by vegetable and fruit juices every couple of hours on Monday and Tuesday.
Fasting and Liver Detoxification Process
The speaker explains what happens when a person goes on a fast. They mention that even though guests are given fresh vegetable and fruit juices during their fast, it is still not enough nourishment for the body. As a result, the liver starts breaking down fat stores to provide glucose for energy. However, these fat stores may contain environmental poisons, which can lead to unpleasant side effects such as bad breath, strong body odor, and changes in bowel movements.
Conversion of Fat-Soluble Toxins by the Liver
The speaker discusses how fat-soluble toxins stored in fat stores need to be converted into water-soluble toxins by the liver before they can be eliminated from the body. They explain that most toxins are initially stored in a fat-soluble state but need to be broken down by the liver into a water-soluble state for excretion through urine, sweat, or feces.
Three Phases of Liver Detoxification
The speaker introduces the three phases of liver detoxification. They mention that this information has only been known since around 2010. Phase one begins approximately 24 hours after no food enters the stomach, which aligns with the fasting period at Misty Mountain Health Retreat.
Phase One of Liver Detoxification
In phase one, the liver takes fat-soluble toxins and breaks them down into metabolites. These metabolites can be even more toxic than the original toxins and can generate free radicals, which are damaging to tissues.
Antioxidants and Liver's Needs in Phase One
The speaker explains that during phase one, the liver requires antioxidants to counteract the damaging effects of free radicals. Antioxidants contain electrons that neutralize free radicals. They mention beta-carotene as an example of a powerful antioxidant found in dark green and dark orange vegetables.
Juices High in Beta-Carotene
The speaker describes the juices given to guests at Misty Mountain Health Retreat, which are high in beta-carotene. They mention that most juices consist of 80% carrot, 10% apple (usually Granny Smith), and 10% celery (dark green). Beet juice is also mentioned as being high in beta-carotene.
Importance of Whole Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids
The speaker emphasizes the importance of consuming whole vitamin C with bioflavonoids rather than just ascorbic acid alone. They explain that vitamin C with bioflavonoids provides more comprehensive benefits and can be found in nature.
The summary includes the main points from the transcript, organized into meaningful sections. Each section has a clear title and is concise. Timestamps are provided for each section to help locate specific parts of the video.
New Section
In this section, the speaker discusses the importance of incorporating green barley and natural sources of vitamins and minerals into a detox routine.
Incorporating Natural Sources
- The speaker suggests mixing green barley with homegrown vegetables for detox purposes. However, if tablets or powders are not available, natural sources can be used.
- Homegrown vegetables contain essential nutrients, but during a detox, a higher dose is recommended.
- Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps in the detox process. It is fat-soluble and can be obtained from sources like almond milk and coconut cream.
New Section
This section focuses on antioxidants and their role in the detox process.
Antioxidants
- Antioxidants such as beta-carotene, vitamin C, and vitamin E are important for detoxification.
- Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that acts as an antioxidant.
- Fat-soluble vitamins include vitamins A, D, E, and K.
New Section
The speaker explains how minerals are obtained during a detox program.
Minerals
- Minerals are necessary during stage one of the detox process.
- Guests are encouraged to consume Celtic sea salt before drinking water to obtain minerals.
- Broth made with sea nettle and homegrown celery is also high in minerals.
New Section
This section discusses the importance of vitamin B in the detox process.
Vitamin B
- Vitamin B is necessary during stage one of the detox process but is not an antioxidant.
- Liquid vitamin B supplements are recommended for optimal results.
- Methylated vitamin B is preferred as it can be better utilized by the body.
New Section
The speaker introduces phase two of the detox process.
Phase Two
- Phase two of the detox process begins around Tuesday morning for guests who start their detox on Sunday.
- The purpose of phase two is to convert fat-soluble toxins into a water-soluble state.
- In phase two, the liver combines toxic metabolites with amino acids to produce a water-soluble state.
New Section
This section emphasizes the importance of protein in phase two of the detox process.
Protein in Phase Two
- Protein is essential during phase two as it provides amino acids to neutralize toxic metabolites and facilitate the water-soluble conversion.
- Failure to supply protein within 48 hours of starting a detox can lead to liver function loss.
- Guests are advised to consume protein supplements, such as pea protein, along with almond milk or soy milk during their detox program.
New Section
The speaker explains why long water fasts without nutritional support are not recommended.
Long Water Fasts
- Long water fasts without nutritional support can lead to severe symptoms due to an increase in fat-soluble toxins.
- Compared to a hundred years ago, there are more fat-soluble toxins present today.
- Nutritional support is crucial for effective detoxification and supporting liver function.
New Section
This section discusses the timing and order of consuming green barley and protein supplements during the detox program.
Timing and Order
- On Monday, guests are given green barley at 8 AM, 12 PM, and 4 PM. Protein supplements are provided at 10 AM and 2 PM.
- On Tuesday, the schedule is reversed. Guests receive protein supplements at 8 AM, 12 PM, and 4 PM, and green barley at 10 AM and 2 PM.
The transcript does not provide timestamps for the remaining content.
The Three Phases of Liver Detox
In this section, the speaker discusses the three phases of liver detox and the importance of nutrition for liver health.
The Three Essential Food Groups
- Fiber: Contains antioxidants found in vegetables.
- Protein: Essential for phase two of the liver detox.
- Fat: Needed for vitamin E and phase three of the liver detox.
Phase Three of Liver Detox
- In conjunction with phase two, phase three involves the liver releasing water-soluble waste through kidneys, sweat glands, and colon.
- Adequate water intake is crucial for this process.
Importance of Core Strengthening Exercises
- Core strengthening exercises are emphasized to strengthen core muscles connected to the spine.
- Ellen White's writings highlight the significance of an erect form and strong abdominal muscles.
Duration and Nutritional Support during Fasting
This section focuses on fasting duration, nutritional support during fasting, and the use of fiber for bowel movements.
Duration of Fasting
- Two-day fasts are recommended weekly instead of longer fasts to prevent excessive release of fat-soluble toxins.
- Longer fasts may be done under proper nutritional support.
Nutritional Support during Fasting
- Guests at a retreat are provided with exercise programs and adequate hydration to support kidney function.
- Steam saunas are considered important for detoxification, along with sufficient water intake to maintain colon function.
Fiber and Bowel Movements during Fasting
- Flaxseed and psyllium husk should be avoided during fasting as they promote digestion.
- Buckthorn cascara and Christian tea are used to stimulate peristalsis and maintain bowel movements during fasting.
Importance of Organ Elimination during Fasting
This section highlights the importance of organ elimination during fasting and the impact of fiber on colon function.
Organ Elimination during Fasting
- It is crucial to keep organs of elimination, such as the colon, functioning properly during fasting.
- Some individuals may experience a cessation of bowel movements when fiber intake stops.
Impact of Fiber on Colon Function
- Fiber is not given during fasting to allow for a more effective fasting process.
- The absence of fiber can lead to a temporary halt in bowel movements.
The transcript provided does not contain any timestamps beyond this point.
New Section
This section discusses the use of colonic irrigations at Misty Mountain retreat. The frequency of colonic irrigations varies depending on the individual's needs and preferences.
Colonic Irrigations at Misty Mountain Retreat
- Some guests choose to have colonic irrigations during their stay at Misty Mountain.
- The frequency of colonic irrigations depends on the person's needs and health director's advice.
- Colonic irrigation can help with constipation and improve colon health.
- It may not be as effective for everyone, so individual history and symptoms are considered.
- In some cases, guests may opt for multiple colonics per week, such as a lady with breast cancer who had five colonics a week for four weeks.
New Section
This section discusses the use of coffee enemas and herbs to support liver function at Misty Mountain retreat.
Coffee Enemas and Herbs for Liver Function
- Coffee enemas stimulate the liver to release waste and can be used in combination with colonics.
- Not everyone chooses coffee enemas, as it depends on personal preference.
- Liver function cannot be directly measured but can be assessed through symptoms like dark urine or light-colored stools.
- Bitter herbs like dandelion, gentian, and Mary's thistle are beneficial for liver health.
- Mediherb is an Australian herb company that offers herbal tablets containing these liver-supporting herbs.
- Sucking on bitter herbs can provide relief from liver or gall pain.
New Section
This section addresses misconceptions about cholesterol and its relationship to heart disease. The liver produces cholesterol according to the body's demands.
Cholesterol Production by the Liver
- Cholesterol production by the liver is influenced by glucose and fat.
- The liver produces cholesterol based on the body's needs.
- High-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are the two main types of cholesterol.
- HDL is often referred to as "good" cholesterol, while LDL is considered "bad."
- There is no proof that cholesterol causes heart disease, according to Dr. Malcolm Kendrick.
- The body does not produce inherently "bad" substances.
New Section
This section discusses additional herbs and their benefits for liver health.
Artichoke and Other Herbs for Liver Health
- Artichoke is another herb that supports liver function.
- It can be beneficial to include artichoke in a liver-supporting regimen.
- Bitter herbs like dandelion, gentian, Mary's thistle, and artichoke have positive effects on the liver.
The transcript ends here.
New Section
In this section, the speaker discusses the importance of LDL cholesterol in delivering cholesterol to the brain and how the brain utilizes fat for energy.
LDL Cholesterol and Brain Function
- LDL delivers cholesterol to the brain, which is essential for its proper functioning.
- The brain consumes 15 times more fuel than any other cell in the body because it serves as headquarters.
- Glucose burns at four calories per gram, while fat burns at nine calories per gram. This explains why the brain prefers fat as a source of energy.
- Both HDL and LDL cholesterol are used by the brain.
New Section
In this section, the speaker explains how HDL and LDL cholesterol work together in the blood vessels.
HDL and LDL Cholesterol in Blood Vessels
- In blood vessels, LDL is found on the edge due to its low density, while HDL is located in the middle due to its high density.
- Environmental poisons can damage endothelial cells that line arteries, leading to clogged arteries.
- Chemicals from laundry detergent and other sources can contribute to arterial wall damage.
- Using sodium bicarbonate as a degradable laundry detergent alternative is recommended.
New Section
This section focuses on environmental toxins present in everyday items like clothing and food.
Environmental Toxins
- Sodium bicarbonate can be used as an alternative for washing clothes, hair, body, etc., reducing exposure to chemicals present in regular detergents.
- Chemical residues from laundry detergents can be absorbed through our skin.
- Environmental poisons come from various sources such as fabrics (polyesters, acrylics), food (pesticides), and air pollution.
- Mercury fillings and mold in houses can also contribute to damage.
New Section
The speaker discusses the role of LDL cholesterol and protein molecules in artery blockages.
Artery Blockages
- Protein molecules floating in the blood can become sticky when there is excess glucose from a high carbohydrate diet.
- These sticky molecules can attach to arterial walls, leading to blockages that cause strokes and heart disease.
- Chemical exposure, diet, and lifestyle choices can contribute to these blockages.
New Section
This section addresses misconceptions about cholesterol's role in heart disease.
Cholesterol Misconceptions
- Blaming cholesterol for heart disease is like blaming fire trucks for fires; it is only doing its job.
- Hybridized wheat with altered starch structure can raise blood sugar levels higher than sugar itself, potentially contributing to artery damage.
- The speaker suggests that many people consume hybridized wheat without realizing its impact on their health.
The Role of Grain in Heart Disease
This section discusses the role of grain in heart disease and how it is not the sole cause.
Grain and Heart Disease
- Excess glucose glues to protein, which may contribute to heart disease.
- Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride discusses this in her book "Put Your Heart in Your Mouth."
- Ansel Keys' research in 1953 suggested that saturated fat causes heart disease, but his selection of countries skewed the results.
- Zulus who consume blood meat and milk have zero heart disease.
- French and Norwegians with high dairy consumption had lower rates of heart disease.
- It is not the butter or olive oil itself but what it is paired with (bread or pasta) that affects heart health.
Low-Fat Diet Misconceptions
This section addresses misconceptions about low-fat diets and margarine as a substitute for butter.
Low-Fat Diet Misconceptions
- Authorities promote low-fat diets to reduce heart disease risk.
- Olive oil is mentioned in the Bible as a concentrated food that should be consumed moderately.
- The problem lies in excessive consumption of fats, including both healthy fats like olive oil and unhealthy fats from fried foods.
- Some authorities suggest getting all fats from nuts and seeds instead of animal products.
- Margarine, introduced as a substitute for butter, is an altered plastic fat that can be harmful to health.
Lowered Cholesterol Levels
This section discusses the lowering of cholesterol levels and its impact on health.
Lowered Cholesterol Levels
- Cholesterol level standards have been lowered over time, leading to unrealistic targets for normal levels.
- The Framingham heart studies aimed to prove that cholesterol causes heart disease but failed to do so.
- People with low cholesterol levels are at risk of mental problems.
- High cholesterol levels do not necessarily indicate a higher risk of heart disease.
The transcript is in English, and the notes have been provided in English as well.
New Section
In this section, the speaker discusses the impact of cholesterol-lowering medication on heart health and memory.
The Effects of Cholesterol-Lowering Medication
- Cholesterol-lowering medication has been widely prescribed to reduce heart disease.
- However, these medications can have negative effects on the body.
- They block the pathway in the liver that produces cholesterol, but this same pathway is also responsible for producing coenzyme Q10, a heart protective enzyme.
- Therefore, taking cholesterol-lowering medication can lead to a deficiency in coenzyme Q10 and increase the risk of heart attacks.
- There are cases where individuals experienced memory loss and confusion after starting cholesterol-lowering medication. These symptoms improved when they stopped taking the medication.
- Side effects of cholesterol-lowering medication include Alzheimer's, dementia, memory loss, muscle wasting, and breast cancer.
New Section
In this section, the speaker highlights how cholesterol-lowering medication is not effective in reducing heart disease.
Lack of Effectiveness in Lowering Heart Disease
- Despite widespread use of cholesterol-lowering medication, it has not significantly reduced heart disease rates.
- In Australia alone, there are 1700 new cases of dementia and Alzheimer's diagnosed every week.
- Some individuals choose not to get their cholesterol levels tested or take cholesterol-lowering medication due to lack of interest or concerns about side effects.
New Section
In this section, personal experiences with cholesterol-lowering medication are shared.
Personal Experiences and Resistance to Medication
- Some individuals refuse to take cholesterol-lowering medication and face criticism from their doctors.
- It is important to find healthcare professionals who are open to discussing alternative approaches and not solely relying on medication.
- Dietary choices, such as consuming meat, butter, cream, and cheese, have been found to lower cholesterol levels in some cases.
- The focus should be on addressing the damage to arterial walls rather than solely targeting cholesterol levels.
New Section
In this section, the speaker emphasizes the importance of education and natural remedies for better health outcomes.
Educating People on Natural Remedies
- The hope for better health lies in educating people about the restorative power of nature instead of relying solely on drugs.
- Changing the system requires individuals taking a stand against unnecessary medications and advocating for natural approaches.
- A heart specialist suggests not blindly following doctors' recommendations regarding cholesterol-lowering medication.
- It is essential to question medical advice when it does not align with personal values or beliefs.
The transcript provided was already in English.
The Impact of Chemicals on Our Health
This section discusses the potential harm caused by chemicals in our daily lives, particularly in clothing and household products.
Chemicals in Clothing
- Little chemicals present in clothing can gradually damage arterial walls.
- Some clothes made from cotton contain over 5% elastone, which doesn't bother the speaker as long as it is mostly natural fiber.
- Chemicals in animal products may also contribute to arterial wall damage.
Dr. Atkins Diet and Heart Disease
- The speaker acknowledges the scientific accuracy of Dr. Atkins' diet but does not advocate for it.
- It is interesting that none of Dr. Atkins' patients died of heart disease despite consuming saturated fats from animal products.
- The healthiest couple known to the speaker consumed all organic food without chemical fibers or substances.
Long-lasting Effects of Chemical Fabrics
- Chemical fabrics take a long time to break down in landfills, posing a problem for environmental pollution.
- Organic herb growers have experienced soil contamination due to chemicals leaching from carpets used for weed control.
Liver Cleansing Methods
This section explores different methods of liver cleansing, including fasting and specific techniques focused solely on liver detoxification.
Fasting and Liver Cleansing
- Most liver cleansing is done in conjunction with fasting, although it can be performed separately.
- One well-known method involves drinking half a cup of lemon juice or grapefruit juice mixed with half a cup of olive oil before bedtime.
- This method stimulates the gallbladder to release bile and potentially expel stones.
Importance of Apple Juice and Stone Breakdown
- Consuming apple juice during the week leading up to liver cleansing helps break down stones due to its malic acid content.
- However, modern apples may lack sufficient malic acid, making it necessary to obtain apples from old trees for effective stone breakdown.
Gentle Liver or Gallbladder Cleanse
- The speaker describes a gentler liver or gallbladder cleanse that spans five days and does not require fasting.
- This method involves consuming a tablespoon of olive oil and either lemon juice or grapefruit juice daily.
The transcript provided does not cover the entire video.
Detox Methods for Gallstones and Liver Health
In this section, the speaker discusses detox methods for gallstones and liver health.
Castor Oil Compresses for Gallstones
- Wearing castor oil compresses under the right rib can be beneficial for individuals with large gallstones.
- This method can help support liver health and is recommended to be worn for at least three months before considering a gallbladder cleanse.
Sea Water Flush
- The sea water flush involves drinking a mixture of pure sea water, hot water, and plain water.
- This detox method aims to stimulate the colon and can be effective in cleansing the system.
- However, it may cause discomfort or vomiting in some individuals, so it is not commonly used.
Importance of Enemas
- After undergoing detox methods such as the apple and grapefruit olive oil cleanse, it is important to perform an enema.
- Enemas help eliminate toxins released from the liver and gallbladder during the cleanse process.
Gerson Therapy and Liver Support
In this section, Gerson Therapy and its connection to liver support are discussed.
Gerson Therapy's Approach
- Gerson Therapy focuses on supporting the liver as part of its treatment approach for various diseases.
- It involves consuming liver essence from cows and drinking large amounts of carrot juice daily.
- However, excessive carrot juice intake may raise sugar levels in individuals with cancer.
Sprouts in Gerson Therapy
- Gerson observed that cancer patients who consumed sprouts experienced slower healing.
- This was attributed to a chemical present in sprouts that protects them from insects.
- It is important to note that some store-bought sprouts may contain mold.
Coffee Enemas for Pain Relief
In this section, the speaker discusses the use of coffee enemas for pain relief.
Coffee Enemas and Liver Reaction
- When coffee is administered as an enema, it stimulates the liver to eliminate waste.
- Max Gerson shared a story about how coffee enemas reduced pain levels in patients during World War I when water was scarce.
Coffee Enemas for Migraine Relief
- In cases where other treatments fail to alleviate severe migraines, coffee enemas can be effective in reducing pain levels.
