Jaundice

Yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes are a result of an underlying liver disorder that leads to an accumulation of bile products in the body. This may be due to (hepatitis), Cirrhosis blockage of the bile duct by a stone or tumor: or the abnormal destruction of the red blood cells, which leads to the release of large quantities of red pigment into the blood.
Dietary: Eat plenty of fruits and raw vegetables, along with vegetable protein(soy, cooked dried beans, peas, whole grain cereals) Drink lemon juice and carrot juice daily. Reduce your intake of all fats, including nuts and seeds. Avoid alcohol, caffeine and smoking.
Herbs: Dandelion-root decoction is a gentle liver tonic: Put 3 teaspoons of the chopped dried root into 1 cup of water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 10 minutes: drink 3 times daily.

Please consult a physician before starting any treatment
