    Dr Sandra Cabot & Liver Cleansing Diet???

    Hi all, I'm here with a bit of a blast from the past: Dr Sandra Cabot and her liver cleansing diet...anyone done it? Recently? How did you find it?

    Also, anyone used her Livatone (plus) formula?

    I first read this way back in the early 90s (wasn't she on Oprah around then too?) and thought it was a bit of a crock - my GF was heavily into detoxing at the time...it just seemed a bit unnecessary. BUT here I am nearly 20 years later, having myself a fatty liver issue, I'm rethinking. Definitely a goer with the fresh veggies & fruits & juices, cutting back on the animal protein, and excess refined carbs...But I'm not giving up dairy!! hehe.

    Wow - yes I did this back in the 90's and got great results. I felt wonderful doing it and I actually still use some of the recipes as some were really yummy!

    I didn't use the tonic though.

    my mum and dad did it for a few months and felt fantastic afterwards, dropped a bit of weight with it too. they still use some of the recipes, and every now and then they go back on it for a few weeks to cleanse out the system. not something I could do long term but its not too bad

    I followed the diet (didn't use the tonic) about 5 years ago and it made me pretty sick! I would talk to your GP before giving it a go. It's not for everyone.

    ExH and I went on it before we got married. GREAT results! He looked 10 years younger, eyes bright, skin clear - I felt pretty good too.

    BUT, I didn't follow it to a T, I just followed guidelines and cooked most of the recipes. I never do anything to extremes!
