I stopped my meds (remedies) through the holidays. I wanted to experience a good life which I did.

My liver got bad from the smoke in the apartment and I also found that I can't tolerate fried meat. The other family member in the apartment was frying fish, bacon, lots of meat while I was sauteeing sometimes.

My eyes and nose burn and then my liver starts to sting. It stings almost all the time lately.

Then the last week I've had some suicidal thoughts. Conversations have been difficult and I have been easily depressed this week.

I changed what I was eating again to only raw or baked or water cooked and no heated oil only put on vegs after.

I started my meds last night and today. I had soup today. I'm doing better and can cope today.

Hi gerdy,

Sorry you were feeling poorly. I think most everyone cheats during the holidays but I'm glad you are back on track again. That's interesting that you could feel sensations from your liver, I never did and I'm curious to what that feels like.

Have you tried drinking homemade bone broth for healing your gut? Or doing a liver/gallbladder cleanse?

Happy New Year to you!

Thank you Denise.

I feel a stinging around my rib cage on my right side and once in a great while a little on the left side. It's mild today on the right.

Do you have a favorite recipe for homemade bone broth? I'd like to try it.

Liver/gallbladder cleanse is a good suggestion. I did one last year.

I hope your year is going well.

Hi Nicki,

Glad the stinging is on the mild side. I make both beef bone broth and chicken. I like them both so I don't have a favorite. The chicken recipe is more work because I separate all the bones from the chicken after it's done which can take a while.

Here are the recipes I use from Dr. Mercola though I do not use his apple cider vinegar or any of his products:

Basic bone broth using beef:

Chicken (I use a whole organic chicken):

My Mom and I enjoy the broth and I feel really good after drinking (eating) it! Let me know if you decide to make one.

Denise,

Both sound good. I'll try the chicken first because I have less trouble with chicken than beef. I'll share it with my daughter, if she wants it. She tried making bone broth a while back but didn't strain it, and she got sick from it.

Thank you for caring and sharing. heart heart

Since I've been taking Neuro Antitox II Basic again, I have not any more extreme depression or frustration.

Denise,
Do I have to skin the whole chicken first or do I put it in the pot like it is? (for the bone broth)

Hi Nicki,

So happy to hear that you are no longer feeling depressed! Also, I read that you order the Neuro-Antitox from Walmart, wow, I had no idea Walmart would carry Jernigan products, interesting!

As far as the chicken, I don't remove the skin. After the chicken is cooked for 12 or more hours (I use a slow cooker), I remove the chicken, separate the meat from the bones, put the meat back in the broth (transfer the broth to a different pot) and refrigerate it so I can skim off the fat. I don't like the taste or texture of the broth with fat. That's just me.

Let me know how it turns out.

Denise
