in-depth, but written for a general audience. There's lots of information on the basic functioning of the liver as well as individual chapters on specific diseases. Treatment & supplement regimes are also included.

I started to read this book but it’s got far too much information in it to read in one go.
I have made many notes and researched several of the facts given.

An incredibly useful book when taking care of your liver.
Written for US citizens, there are a few things that are different but it all points to a similar direction.

I enjoyed this read but it was overwhelming in some ways and a let down in others.

I have NAFLD and this had some great information and breaks down each liver disease. It is odd that the way to help each one is with supplements, which my doctor does not agree with because I asked after I read this book. I have to say that the sugar parts where interesting.

The Liver Cure was a very informative read, written by Russell L. Blaylock. I learned a lot; however, I would have liked the author to cover additional liver issues such as Intrahepatic Cholestasis of pregnancy. Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for my opinions.

Thank you to NetGalley for an arc of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A well-written account of the complexity of how the liver works with other organs in the body. Recommended.

Wealth of information about the liver and its functions. I enjoyed the dietary information on what can help your liver and what harms it.

What did I like? This book is like an encyclopedic book of information on your liver and it’s functions. How the liver interacts with your other organs while doing it’s job of cleaning toxins from your blood. There is a lot of information to take away from this book if you have liver problems or just want to give your body a healthy boost. It’s an interesting read in an easy to understand style of writing.

Would I recommend or buy? I recommend it to people with liver disease, or if your just curious about the functions of the liver. I grabbed a copy to see what it said about alcohol consumption and liver to see if glasses of wine were bad for it. Ideally surprised about sugar chapter and why lowering sugar intake can help your liver. Tons of stuff I didn’t know but was curious enough to find out. Four stars!

I received a complimentary copy from the publisher to read and voluntarily left this review!

If you want a book to scare you into taking care of your liver, this is it. Or perhaps scare you into anything you put into your body. Seriously, though, I found it to be highly informative and interesting, and unusual since not many books are written about the powerhouse of our liver. It goes in-depth into many types of different diseases that affect our liver, and things we can do about it, including the proper supplements to help. This is a good book to keep on hand as a reference. I appreciate the author, publisher, and Netgalley for allowing me to read and review.

A book I’ll definitely be rereading in the future. Super informative, I’ve suffered problems in the past related to the gallbladder and surgery and I’m interested in the liver and the importance on all our bodily functions. The Liver Cure offers natural remedies, lifestyle strategies and dietary solutions that can take your liver off overload to resolve a wide range of symptoms and conditions, along with the latest treatment solutions from conventional and alternative therapies to new scientific discoveries and interventions.

I am so impressed by this book. Topics like this can typically go over my head. So I appreciated so much the style of writing that was both informative and interesting for such a heavy topic. I’ve grown so much in my appreciation of the liver. It’s definitely an eye opener. I’ll have to implement the suggestions throughout the book! Thanks for an ARC for an honest review.

Everything you wanted to know is here in this book. Very informative with a great deal of technical facts. If you are suffering any sort of liver issue or think you might be, then read and understand more about the steps you can take. I liked the dietary facts and recommendations so you can read sections that are of concern or interest. Although written from an American view point, not much difference in any other westernised country. Thank you #NetGalley for the book to review.

3.5 stars
I was diagnosed last year with NAFLD so when I saw this book available for request on NetGalley, I requested it right away. I felt like changes to the structure of the book would have made a big difference. There was a benefit to having each liver issue dealt with separately, but it also detracted from the whole of the book. Almost every liver condition benefits from the same supplementation regime so the book quickly got very repetitive. I felt that it would have been more accessible to readers if the authors had outlined the various liver conditions in the first half and then discussed the various supplements afterwards, mentioning at that point which conditions responded best to each one. In a nutshell, the answer is turmeric (nano-curcurmin)!

This book is a very comprehensive work, written mainly in technical terms.

It is very informative and has given me lots of information to contemplate.

I would definitely recommend this book if you are particularly interested in the Liver and its functions.

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for gifting me this arc in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

An interesting read, particularly as I suffer from a liver condition. Sadly, mine was not covered but still a plethora of good information.

I have been having some liver problems in the past few years, so I was immediately drawn to this book.
It's very interesting and informative, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who would want to keep their liver healthy in a natural way.

Concerned with a family member’s liver, I knew any book by Dr. Blaylock would have excellent advice. I learned so much about the liver and easy solutions to cure many liver diseases. Highly recommend this book to anyone who has liver issues or just wants to know about keeping your liver healthy the natural way.

As a Natural Living Specialist I was immediately drawn to this book for the cover and description. The Liver Cure has so much information in it on how important diet is to our well-being. It shares usable information on what foods to eat and explains why they are effective. It goes into great detail on dangers of fluoride, bug sprays and chemicals often used on lawns and in homes.

I particularly found the many studies that are sited very interesting. However I was disappointed in not finding in depth information such as where to find/read these studies or links to these studies. For this reason I only gave this book a 4 star rating.

The fact that this book was written by a Dr makes it more appealing. This book shares usable information on diabetes, adrenal, as well as other health issues.

I found this book helpful in my ongoing quest for healthy living. I do recommend this book to anyone who wants a healthier lifestyle with more energy.
