If you get haadaclies, It's your liver. If you catch cold easily, It's your liver. If you wake up with a bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stomach be comes ranoid, it's your livor. Sallow skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes all denote liver uncleanllness. Your liver is the most important, also the must abused and neglected organ of the body. . Few know its function or how to release the dammed-up - body waste, bllei and toxins. Most folks resort to violent calomel, which is a dangerous, salivating chemical which can. only be used occasionally because it accumulates in the tissues, also attacks the bones. ;' ! 3: .
