Q & A : Porphyria cutanea tarda

QUESTION:
I have been diagnosed with Porphyria cutanea tarda. My father and brother had the same thing. I went to hospital today and had 3 ltrs of blood removed from my body. This procedure will take place every 2 weeks.  My body lacks the ability to rid itself of iron.  When sores appeared they got infected with staph, which thanks to your and Helga’s help I cleared up with Oregon Grape.  So I was misdiagnosed from beginning. They feel that menopause  along with me using tanning booth all summer awakened this condition. I had 10 times normal iron levels in my blood.
I have never been to tanning salon before and must say I will NEVER again. thankfully my liver was only mildly inflamed.
Can you recommend a good liver cleanse?

No words can thank you for all your help.

 

ANSWER:

An excellent liver cleanse is the Tiao He Pak – Tiao He, means Balance and Harmony in Chinese. This  is a whole body cleanse that also addresses bowels, lymphatic and kidneys – all systems that need to be eliminating to help the liver function better.

As your condition is excess iron, you may want to consider the Heavy Metal Detox formula for 2-3 months after. As you are probably getting iron levels monitored regularly,  you will be able to see empirical improvement, and even more important feel improvement.  In addition to, or after this,  Milk Thistle Standardized Extract– 1 or 2 per day will be a good liver support overall.

The Oregon Grape that was so successful for your staph infection is also an excellent aid for liver, skin and digestion. It is a good one to keep on hand, should any skin condition flare up in future.

Genral healthful tips, including diet, exercise, pH balancing, some recipes can all be found in my book: The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally

Your condition is chemically complex, as all minerals have interactions and protagonist actions with each other, and rather than picking apart what is and is not functioning in the liver, anlayzing what pathways and chemical reactions are or are not working, the natural approach is to nourish and support the liver. IT knows what to do, and given the proper support, it will do it. The fact that this is genetically inherited should not dissuade you from healing it, as biogenomics science is showing that environment is much more powerful than genetics. This means YOU have the ability to change your past and your future!
