I did a bit of research on the net to see what I could find out.\n\nI focused on the sites that were not trying to sell the product so nothing to gain by any information provided.\n\nHere are a couple sites that I found:\n\n(1) http://www.pdrhealth.com/drug_info/nmdrugprofiles/herbaldrugs/101270.shtml\n\n(2) http://au.health.yahoo.com/041101/25/1umx.html?r=967507925\n\n\n\nIt seems it is not recommended to use in this day and age and if used should be done under medical supervision only. \n\nIt has been noted that overdose reaction in sheep is “spasms, paralysis, and death through asphyxiation” (1)\n“Possible side effects include headache, weakness, jitteriness, yellow-green saliva.”(2)\n\n\nIt is contraindicated for pregnant and lactating women and for children and infants (2)\n\n\nI  scanned through a number of  other sites but unable to find anything specific to men or to any specific affect adverse or other wise specifically to men.

"The nutritive composition of a hot aqueous extract of wild Ganoderma fruit bodies was determined. This extract was assessed for cytotoxicity and in vivo genotoxicity by both acute and subchronic exposure of mice (given by mouth at a dose equivalent to extract of 220g fresh Ganoderma fruit body/kg body weight). To test any alleged protection against mutagens by Ganoderma treatments, the mice were injected intraperitoneally with the radiomimetic mutagen ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), and after 24hr of treatment their lymphocytes were examined using the comet assay. Ganoderma extract consisted of Folin-positive material (68.9% of dry weight), but protein comprised only 7.3% of dry weight. Glucose accounted for 11. 1% and metals 10.2% of dry weight (K, Mg and Ca being the major components with Ge (often touted as being of value in sales literature for Ganoderma preparations) having the fifth highest metal concentration at 489 microg/g). In comparison to rodent chow, Ganoderma extract was a modest dietary supplement. No evidence was found for genotoxic chromosomal breakage nor cytotoxic effects by Ganoderma extract in the mouse, nor did it protect against the effects of ethyl methanesulfonate. We found no support in this study for the extract having any value in protecting against the test mutagen.\nPMID: 10717357, UI: 20183650" (1)\n\nSince the fungus has been used for 2100 years to treat both liver disease and diabetes, and the most effective treatments of both have been discovered only in about the last 50 years, I'd wait until more studies were done, and any healing components of the fungus described, extracted and purified before I'd count on it. Really, they didn't cure hepatitis or diabetes very well 1000 years ago!

I don't know about a hospital.  But it depends on how severe your problem is. For digestive problems you can try "Boldocynara" By Dr.A Vogel.  It is a 2 month supply to help the digestive system and also to clean the liver function. \nI started taking it myself recommended by my family doctor as I want to clean the liver.  \nHope you check with your doctor and try it too.  Not too expensive and worth the try.\nGood Luck -

Hi Max - Of course this is a question for your doctor.  No one here is qualified to give medical advice.  That said, there are some natural remedies that many believe are helpful in detoxifying/cleansing like Milk thistle, and the such.  Go to your local health food store and ask for something that detoxifies the liver.  BTW, congrats on getting sober!  That is truly a grace from God.  Blessings to you!

I drink like  a fish too. Was shocked to see results of a general blood test.\n\nNever actually believed in alternative medicine, but decided to try "Liv 52".  Friggin thing works!  I pop a Liv 52DS every single day from the past 2 years.  \n\nIt also helps to pop a "PartySmart" capsule (made by the same pharma: http://www.himalayahealthcare.com/) about half an hr before a binge.\n\nOne year later, my liver fn test is more or less normal - I haven't cut down on the booze ;-)

The Tongans themselves would probably refer the curious back to an ordinary sea plant which the Tongans have harvested and eaten for thousands of years, as they believe it to be a source of longevity and health. \n\nLimu moui is a valuable source of an interesting biochemical called fucoidan and is a marine vegetable native to the coastal region of the island of Tonga. Recent research has revealed that the Tongans' faith in their brown sea plant has not been misplaced as it would appear to be a natural restorative and rejuvenator packed with nutrients, rich in antioxidants and live plant enzymes. It is said that these enzymes can provide improved protein digestion, support for the immune system and optimize overall health.\n\nLimu moui contains quantities of polyphenols-natural antioxidant compounds which mop up the dangerous free radicals which can damage cells thus causing degenerative conditions such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes offering nutritive support to anyone suffering from a nutrient deficient diet. These powerful antioxidants can detoxify the body from heavy metals, free radicals and toxins, improve the structure of hair, skin and nails, support gastrointestinal function, assist in the reduction of high blood sugar and cholesterol and help to protect cells from damage at a cellular level.\n\nAs scientific research and data begins to emerge, this remarkable sea plant is creating significant interest among biochemists. Simply eaten as a vegetable it has offered people remarkable immune building and nutritive support, now it is available as an extract after 15 years of research into how to harness its unique properties and optimize the utilization of its therapeutic applications.\n\nLimu Moui- the health secret of the South pacific\n\nIn the temperate and unspoiled seawater off the coast of Tonga, dense aquatic forests of Limu moui thrive in the fertile bottom soil. Although used by the local populace for its healing and restorative properties over many years, the potential of Limu moui has only recently been recognized in the western world then only due to the curiosity of health-minded individuals. Soon questions regarding the superior longevity, vigor, disease resistance and overall body strength and stature of Tongans provoked investigations into the diet and routine consumption of this sea vegetable were initiated, with researchers attributing the superior health of the Tongans to this unique plant.\n\nLimu Moui contains a balance of synergistic nutrients in natural proportions:\n\n\n\nGlyconutrients (galactose, mannose, xylose)\n\nAmino acids (including glycoproteins)\n\nA wide range of essential and non-essential fatty acids\nA broad spectrum of essential minerals and vitamins\nA variety of polyphenols (powerful antioxidant plant compounds that protect the body from dangerous free radicals)\n\n\nLimu moui's polyphenol content alone is sufficient reason to consider this sea plant a valuable dietary supplement. These polyphenols are known to act as superb cell protection that can help prevent - malignant growths, tissue damage, degenerative diseases, toxic accumulation in tissues, skin deterioration. \n\nLimu moui also contains additional agents which can optimize health such as:\n\n\nFucans and fucoidan - complex polysaccharides

Only 1 person has actually listed anything OTC & nicotine is a good call (though I'm not sure if it actually counts as a "medication"). I would say Tylenol. Tylenol is extremely toxic to the liver - do NOT take it for a hangover or in combination with aspirin. It is the most common drug used for suicide attempts (& the death is not pleasant). It really should be pulled from the market.

Try doing a 'net search on "liver congestion" or "liver overload."  The liver has over 500 known functions.  A liver that is overloaded and incapable of taking care of body needs can cause a wide variety of symptoms. This is because the liver has so many separate and distinct functions, affecting health in many ways. \n\nRemoving poisons from your body is an important function of the liver.  In fact, this is one of the main reasons the liver becomes overloaded.  Poisons may enter your body in many ways.  You may inhale the poisons sprayed on your lawn, insecticides and household cleaning solvents, or chemicals  used in a hobby, such as photography.  These are all known poisons and should be avoided as much as possible.\n\nAlso, medications purchased and used so freely in our culture, put a significant extra load on the liver and can eventually be harmful.\n\nChemicals used as preservatives, stabilizers, artificial flavorings, artificial colorings and to aid in the processing of foods are all potential problems regarding liver function.  Add to all this smog, aerosol sprays (perfumes, hair sprays, deodorants, room fresheners, insect repellents, dusting aids), alcohol, and many other varied poisons in our environment and you can see how the liver may become overworked and ultimately damaged.\n\nThe liver is a major storage area for carbohydrates and proteins.  Ordinarily the liver stores very little fat; it should normally contain 3% to 5%.  There are several reasons that too much fat or fat-like substances accumulate in the liver.  People with poor protein intake have more fat in the liver because certain substances in protein are essential in breaking down fat.  Without these substances, fat is deposited rather than used. Conversely, too much protein in the diet causes a liver overload because the liver must eliminate the waste products from the protein breakdown.  Consumption of too many refined carbohydrates and/or too much alcohol can cause an elevation of triglycerides, which are fat in nature and accumulate in the liver, causing congestion and interference with normal liver function.\n\nSymptoms of liver overload may be aches and pains, severe fatigue, digestive disturbances, swelling, a constant chilled feeling, and poor appetite. There may be an inability to tolerate medications due to improper breakdown and elimination of the drugs, with an increased number of side effects.
