You don't always have to take the same supplements every day.
An interesting technique is to periodically support a single Key Body System. Under this method, you support
with supplements a single Key Body System. at the start of each new season (i.e., four times a year). This support
generally lasts only one month.

| Detoxification System |
The liver is an important detox organ because of its many metabolic functions. Liver-supportive nutrients, such
as milk thistle and alpha-lipoic acid, can be taken as supplements.
"Silybum marianum (milk thistle) has been shown to have clinical applications in the treatment of toxic
hepatitis, fatty liver, cirrhosis, ischemic injury, radiation toxicity, and viral hepatitis via its antioxidative,
anti-lipid peroxidative, antifibrotic, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulating, and liver regenerating effects."[1]
"The triple antioxidant combination of alpha-lipoic acid, silymarin [milk thistle] and selenium was
chosen for a conservative treatment of hepatitis C because these substances protect the liver from free radical
damage, increase the levels of other fundamental antioxidants, and interfere with viral proliferation. The 3 patients
presented in this paper followed the triple antioxidant program and recovered quickly and their laboratory values
remarkably improved. Furthermore, liver transplantation was avoided and the patients are back at work, carrying
out their normal activities, and feeling healthy."[2]
