Suggest Treatment For Liver Dysfunction

I am 68 years old and over the past four to five years I have put on weight around my mid section. I am told that thios is due in part by liver slow down or dysfunction. Both my mother and my brother had complications regarding their liver prior to passing away. I ve heard that there are liver cleansing remedies available or that can be purchased but at a considerable cost. I am on a fixed income and personally was hoping to find a more natural way to cleanse my liver. Do you have any suggestions?

there are no liver cleansing medicines available in the first place. Secondly, your belly fat is due to food and physical inactivity. in fact liver is affected secondary to this and not a cause of this. my advice is to go for weight loss by diet control and exercise. control of diabetes if any. once this is done liver will become normal on its own
