hack #2:

liver flush

rule #2: liver flush

Wake the F*ck Up’s second “Arousal Hack” is called ‘Liver Flush’.

Fatigue and brain fog in the mornings are not solely due to poor sleep, caffeine addictions or gut issues.

They’re actually caused in large part by:
“A liver that’s saturated with toxic heavy metals, scented candles, air fresheners, fragrances, pesticides, herbicides, and other toxins that are providing fuel to the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).”1

“When EBV feeds on these poisons, the neurotoxins it releases explode through your bloodstream and spinal fluid, and from there, they can cross the blood-brain barrier due to their unique infiltration quality, enter the brain, and short-circuit neurons and/or damage neurotransmitters.

These neurotoxins have the ability to diminish neurotransmitter activity and neurotransmitter chemicals themselves, meaning that when an electrical impulse tries to run down a neuron, the electrical impulse can misfire as it’s approaching any kind of contamination or inconsistency.

The electrical impulse was carrying messages, thoughts, and information, so when it misfires, confusion and brain fog is the result of these messages becoming fragmented.”1

Because your liver does most of its cleaning work while you sleep, it needs to be flushed right when you wake up, otherwise the toxins will settle back in.

The easiest way to flush and detox your liver is by starting your mornings with 16oz → 32oz of freshly-squeezed, room(ish) temperature lemon water.

Lemons and limes are also ultra-hydrating and electrolyte-producing, because they are a top source of mineral salts and trace mineral salts.

And as if that wasn’t enough:

“Lemons and limes have some of the most highly absorbable vitamin C and calcium around. Plus, phytochemicals actually bond the vitamin C and calcium together, so that wherever one goes in the body, the other rides along.

This enhances the bioavailability of each, and also creates alkalinity in the body to help prevent the growth of almost every type of cancer.”1

If you really want to take the liver flush (and therefore your health) to the next level, you should also be avoiding all fats until noon, sticking to just fruits and leafy greens until then (this is completely contrary to all of the typical advice out there of eating a “high protein” breakfast, but you’ll notice a surge in your vitality almost immediately).

And what if you get hungry!? Well then just eat more fruit and leafy greens, of course 🙂!

I have so many more thoughts on this subject, and often talk about using plants to heal in my monthly workshops.

Watch the quick tutorial of my lemon water ritual below, otherwise I’ll see you in the next hack.

P.S. Man-made electrolyte powders are not nearly as powerful as lemons and limes, celery juice, or leafy greens. Remember: Mother Earth has had billions of years to fine-tune her recipes and nutrition for us.

P.P.S. I receive my information from the Medical Medium. Obviously I can’t tell you what to believe, but it’s worth reading the books to see if the information resonates with you. It has dramatically improved my health.
