Fleeing from terrible migraines, debilitating toothache or acute colic, we reach... right behind the pill. But, silos, analgin, aspirin. Each of us has its own set of capsules and pills. But not for nothing that the doctors themselves like "black" saying that one treat, and the other KALEKIM. Long-term use of drugs can lead to even more serious trouble than a headache attack.
The first blow
it is necessary for the liver and kidneys, providing cleansing our body from the rubble of toxins and other waste. And not to forget that medicine is not the only thing that we loaded. Add to the doses of painkillers, hormonal and cold portions of vodka, smoked and roasted. Poor nutrition and hard liquor is another drawback of our everyday lives, depriving the body's ability to cleanse itself from chemical precipitation. Any substance that is not close in structure to our cells and tissues, is toxic. And then - sad: metabolic disorders, slips of the brain, the nervous system.
The process went
You become irritable or sluggish, as sloth in the dry season. This is a valid manifestation of intoxication. Because nerve cells are most sensitive to the chemical composition of our internal environment. Just at the moment when violated any social ties, people can say what happens to him long - side effects of those drugs, without which already do not. So the process has not gone too far, take care of myself. First and foremost, you should

- there is no later than 19.00 to at night to free the liver and kidneys from any loads.
The second task is to support the liver:
- to exclude from the diet of alcohol, strong tea and coffee. For initially healthy body this is sometimes enough to almost neutralize the destructive action of the components of the drug;
in parallel, the doctor may prescribe protecting drugs (substances that protect and strengthen the liver cells). As a rule, they are made from natural raw materials of vegetable origin. This milk Thistle in different kinds of drugs on the basis of artichoke (hofitol), cholagogue collectings, immortelle or all of the above in various combinations.
But if you approach the issue carefully, the sad effects of hormonal therapy and, say, a long etching themselves from bacteria antibiotics differ significantly. Below we have tried to systematize the available data and proposed to postpone tablet, replacing it with alternative methods.
