Liver Cysts: What they are and what to do about them
Liver cysts are also known as hepatic cysts. They are fairly common and can be detected by ultrasound or CT scan. One or two liver cysts usually do not cause any problems and do not require treatment, however, sometimes the cysts are numerous or grow very large and require medical attention.
One or more large liver cysts can cause pain or discomfort in the right upper abdominal region. If they cause significant discomfort, cysts can be drained or removed in hospital. Ideally you would address them before they reached this level of severity.
There are several types of liver cysts:
- Simple cysts
- Polycystic liver disease (an inherited condition)
- Cysts caused by parasties (such a hydatid disease)
- Cysts occuring in conjunction with liver cancer
What causes simple liver cysts?
These cysts usually arise when a small area of liver cells dies or degenerates. The most common cause is advancing years and poor diet and lifestyle. Sometimes these cysts can be full of "fatty material" in those with a fatty liver. At other times the cysts are filled with fluid or mucus. These cysts do not represent liver disease because the liver, being such a huge organ, has plenty of other areas containing healthy cells to enable liver function to remain normal.
Natural remedies for overcoming liver cysts
If your doctor finds that you have one or several of these degenerative types of liver cysts (simple cysts), do not become alarmed. Obviously you do not want to develop many more of these cysts and thankfully it is easy to stop them from multiplying. In many cases it is possible to gradually shrink the cysts using nutritional medicine.
I recommend the following:
- Remove dairy products from your diet. The hormones naturally present in all dairy products encourage the growth of cysts and mucus in the body.
- Avoid or minimise exposure to substances that cause damage to liver cells, such as alcohol, some medication and drugs, environmental chemicals and sugar in excess.
- Follow the eating principles in The Liver Cleansing Diet Book.
- Take a good quality liver tonic. This will help to protect your liver cells from harm and help to repair damaged liver cells.
- Take a selenium supplement. Selenium is required in order for your liver to manufacture the powerful antioxidant glutathione. Selenium helps to protect liver cells from damage.
- Drink raw vegetable juices regularly. You will find recipes specifically for the liver in my book Raw Juices Can Save Your Life. The best vegetables for a healthy liver include kale, broccoli, radishes and onion. Include a carrot and apple in the juice to make it more palatable.

If it’s faulty or wrongly described, we’ll replace it.
I went to the ER today with severe on one side of my body that was diagnosed as kidney stone. However the results of my CT scan also mentioned: "HEPATOBILIARY: 5mm indeterminate hypotension dome lesion, most likely a cyst. Normal gallbladder and bile ducts." I was treated for stage 2 breast cancer in 2019 and considered cancer free at end of treatment in 2020. So I called my oncologist and he said cysts are fairly common it would make sense to do another CT in "a certain number of months". Or I could do a contrast CT scan or MRI now, but he would leave it up to me. Ugh! I really don't know what to do....what are your thoughts?
Thanks!

To shrink cysts we recommend taking:
Livatone Plus 1 cap twice daily for the first 2 weeks and then increasing to 2 caps twice daily, to improve liver function.
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC 600mg) – 1 cap twice daily for first 2 weeks and then increasing to 2 capsules twice daily well away from food, if any upset occurs take at the beginning of your meals. NAC should be taken with a whole glass of water away from food. Do not take just before retiring to bed. NAC can be strong on the stomach, and this is why you need to take it with a whole glass of water.This supplement works well with Livatone Plus to get your liver better faster. This supplement is the precursor nutrient of glutathione; the body’s strongest anti-oxidant and potent detoxifier.

well they will shrink slowly so be persistent with SELENOMUNE one daily, NAC 2 twice day with a whole large glass of water - 2 on arising and 2 mid morning, SERRAPEPTASE 2 daily, Livatone Liver and gallbladder cleanse 2 twice day
the main thing is that you do not get anymore cysts forming and that your liver function is normal.
eat plenty of salads and vegetables and good quality meat. eggs are also good for the liver.

I have sent response via email.

That's not a lot of information
Do the doctors think the lesions are benign or malignant ?
Perhaps they are just cysts?
if the lesions are simple cysts they can be helped a lot using nutritional medicine

Castor Oil packs can certainly calm and soothe your liver, but they are not a recommended treatment for liver cysts.
Follow the advice in the article and begin taking Livatone Plus - 2 capsules twice daily with or without food, and NAC - 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid temporary stomach irritation.

cysts on the liver are common and usually benign
you do not want to keep getting more cysts!
Follow a healthy lower carbohydrate diet and take LIVATONE PLUS 4 capsules daily to improve your liver function and liver tissue
have another liver scan in 6 months to see if cysts are shrinking by taking LIVATONE PLUS
Cheers

Most liver cysts are benign and cause no problems, but Fatty Liver is fast becoming the number one cause of the need for Liver Transplant.
Hepatomegaly means that your liver is enlarged and would be the cause of your considerable discomfort.
Most often the cause of this is that liver detox phases are out of detox synchronicity.
To improve liver detox begin taking Livatone Plus – 2 capsules twice daily, and NAC – 2 capsules twice daily with a large glass of water to avoid temporary stomach irritation.
To encourage best liver health and protect against your enlarged liver getting worse or developing into Fatty Liver we recommend you follow the eating plan in Dr Cabot’s Fatty Liver book.

Thank You.
Your liver cyst may have developed before you learned to eat as clean as you are now.
We are all very lucky because the liver will readily repair itself, and to speed the healing we recommend Livatone Plus – 2 capsules twice daily, and NAC - 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid temporary stomach irritation.
Have an abdominal ultrasound in 3 months to determine if the cyst has shrunk or is gone.

I have 9 mm benign liver cyst in my left lobe.
Can it be shrink in future?
Can i eat Oats and Wheat bread?
Is there anything i should avoid in foods?
How to take livertone and selenium or vitamin C? Pls advise.
Yes, it is possible to shrink a small hepatic cyst rather than letting it become larger with no dietary and lifestyle changes.
It is very likely that your present diet, which seems to be based on high energy carbohydrate foods like oats and wheat bread, and perhaps processed foods, grains, sugars, starches, sodas, industrial seed oils and hydrogenated oils, and maybe even alcohol.
All these foods are highly inflammatory, which places considerable stress on the liver and may lead to cyst formation.
If you want to repair your liver, we strongly recommend you remove any of these products you are consuming from your diet, including oats and all breads.
To hasten the speed of liver health improvement, please begin taking Livatone Plus – 2 capsules twice daily, and NAC - 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach irritation.
Vitamin C is best taken in divided doses throughout each day. 4 doses of 250mg will be absorbed far better than 1 dose of 1000mg.

Have a very clean diet with virtually no sugar, lots of veggies, little to no grains (occasional quinoa or rice). I eat protein in the forms of legumes and lean meat/fish. I find fatty meats cause me discomfort in the upper abdomen and also extreme pregnant looking belly. I am post menopause and now on HRT. I take NAC away from food, LivaTone twice daily, selenium, B vitamins. I recently bought some serrapeptase to try. Can you offer any other advice? Should I use LivaTone Plus too?
Although you have no sweet sugar, many of the foods you choose to eat result in raised blood sugar and may have contributed to the formation of the cyst you have.
Raised blood sugar stimulates the production of insulin and insulin is a growth promotant and may have stimulated the growth of your cyst.
We strongly recommend you begin taking Livatone Plus on alternate days to Livatone and B vitamins.
Being on HRT makes it especially important to ensure your liver is able to detoxify as effectively as possible.
Kind regards

I did my altar sound test and the result was fatty liver and small cyst. It was an year ago. Later after blood test. Doctor said it was good. I feel some pain on and off but nothing serious. Kindly advise should I go for another altra sound or MRI? Thank you in advance.
It is good that your liver enzymes are now in the normal range, but unfortunately all it really tells you is that you are no longer contributing to making your Fatty Liver any worse.
Another Ultrasound or MRI can determine if your liver has returned to normal architecture.
Pain and discomfort may indicate Gallstone formation and it is good to know if these are present and we can advise you how to shrink them, rather than having your Gallbladder removed.
Kind regards

Naturopath for Dr Sandra Cabot MD
It is most important to embark on an anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle as is found with Dr Cabot’s 15 Day Cleanse and Maintenance Program.
To add further limitations to the growth of your cysts, please begin taking Livatone Plus – 2 capsules twice daily, NAC - 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach irritation, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D.

During a recent CT scan my liver showed cysts. My doctor recommended ultrasound. During ultrasound The sonographer detected I have 10 cysts my liver. Course of action is just to watch for a year and see if the cysts grow. I was also Diagnosed with fatty liver 4 years ago
To reverse these cysts, follow the recommendations in the article and remove all forms of sugar from your diet, reduce processed foods to a minimum and also remove dairy foods from your diet.
Supplementation to hasten resolution of the cysts include Livatone Plus – 2 capsules twice daily, NAC – 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach irritation, Ox Bile – 1 to 2 capsules during a meal twice daily, Thyroid Health Capsules – 1 capsule twice daily.
This protocol may also reverse your Fatty Liver, if it is still present.

Most liver cysts are benign and cause no symptoms, and we are pleased all your tests have come back showing nothing of concern.
To improve liver health and to shrink the cyst, begin taking 2 capsules of Livatone Plus twice daily and ½ teaspoon Vitamin C twice daily.
Diet and lifestyle can also determine liver health and we recommend you begin Dr Cabot’s 15 Day Cleanse and Maintenance Program.

I just found out last week after a routine ulrrasound abdomen and pelvis scans that I 2cm fibroid at my right uterus, polyps measured 0.4cm in gallbladder and cysts 3.9cm on my liver. I'm schduled for appt to see specialist later this month. What can I do to help shrink these ?
Fibroids are quite common in women as they approach the later fertility years.
This coincides with a reduction of progesterone production and we recommend you begin taking bio identical progesterone.
Polyps in your gallbladder may be due to toxic bile being stored in it, and to improve the quality of bile please begin taking Ox Bile to immediately increase the amount of bile available to carry toxins through your liver and into your Gallbladder. To stimulate your own bile production begin taking Livatone Liver Tonic.
Selenium is prescribed to help shrink cysts, polyps, and nodules throughout your body.

I have 5 liver cysts I do not know about size and doctor said repeat ultrasound after 3 month but I am very stressed about it please suggest something I have also gallbladder stones and surgery will happen next month.
Thank you
Liver cysts are usually a result of a diet high in sugars, starches and/or processed foods.
Remove these from your diet and if this is difficult begin taking Glicemic Balance to make the transition far easier.
Gallstones are products of a long standing dysfunctional liver, and with diligence they can be shrunken, and passed and it is possible for you to keep your Gallbladder in most situations.
Dr Cabot’s 15 Day Cleanse and Maintenance Program offer an easy to follow way to make the transition to a liver friendly way of eating for life.
To hasten the resolution of your liver cysts, Dr Cabot prescribes Livatone Plus and Selenium.
For Gallstones please add Ox Bile to dissolve them efficiently.
If you decide to have your Gallbladder removed we advise you take Ox Bile with each meal for the rest of your life for the absorption of good dietary fats and fat soluble vitamins.

Eating an occasional egg with wheat bread would not be considered of concern and eating high quality protein foods like fish, meat, poultry and eggs are beneficial for liver health, whereas a diet that contains too high a percentage of starchy foods like bread may result in liver problems.
If there was no liver enlargement or Fatty Liver your present food choices may be fine. For best liver health and function Dr Cabot prescribes Livatone Plus.
Kind regards
Victoria
Naturopath for Dr Sandra Cabot MD
Whenever there are liver issues Livatone Plus is indicated and as you have a cyst that is continuing to grow please begin to take increased Selenium each day to shrink the cyst.
Dr Cabot has a highly anti-inflammatory dietary program and we recommend you begin the 15 Day Cleanse and Maintenance Program.

I have been diagnosed with tiny cysts in the right lobe of my liver and following your recommendation to one of the persons above, I have ordered Livatone Plus and NAC. Do I need to take both capsules at the same time? Furthermore, I still have pain occasionally in the upper right abdomen which lasts just for a few seconds, especially when I am about to go to bed or when I wake up. Is there anything I can do about it?
Tiny cysts in the liver are usually of little concern and taking Livatone Plus and NAC are very beneficial for liver health.
Livatone Plus can be taken at anytime but NAC is to be taken before foods and it is best to ensure at least 20 minutes before eating.
Your occasional pain may be due to a number of things, and we recommend you take magnesium powder or tablets each day.

Is it ok to drink coffee everyday ? Is it ok to eat the “ old fashioned “ oatmeal everyday ?
Thank you
Liver cysts are usually benign and at 17mm, yours is not likely to cause discomfort.
Fatty Liver, on the other hand, is not to be ignored and it is best to reverse it as quickly as possible.
Follow the program in Dr Cabot’s Fatty Liver book.
Coffee may be beneficial, especially if there is no milk or sugar added.
Unfortunately, you will find that your oatmeal, and perhaps other items in your diet have added to your Fatty Liver and Gallbladder problems.
To reverse Fatty Liver as quickly as possible also begin taking Ox Bile, Livatone Plus, and NAC.

Is it safe for dogs to take Livatone and the selenomune?
She has a cyst on her liver.
Thankyou.
Both Livatone Liver Tonic and Selenomune are beneficial for your dog.
Please ensure your dog has no grains in her diet, although she may enjoy some vegetables, but be aware that potato may encourage arthritis.
Canned fish can also provide valuable omega 3 oils and a change from meat and bone.

It is all dairy food that is to be removed from the diet.
It is the protein of dairy foods (casein) that causes the problems with the liver, not the sugar lactose.

I have 1 cyst of about 2 cm on each liver lobe, and also a small polyp of 3 mm on the gallbladder wall. My doctor said they are of not concern now but I feel uncomfortable, and I have pain sometimes if I do physical effort or when I get angry( somehow being mad or upset is not what my liver likes). I want to try to shrink these cysts and prevent more from forming. Also I am a little worried about the polyp on the gallbladder because they can be dangerous if they grow to big
Thank you very much
Monica
Most liver cysts are benign, but it is important to not ignore the polyp in your gallbladder.
To shrink liver cysts and produce sufficient high purity bile we recommend Livatone Plus and NAC at a dose of 2 capsules twice daily.
Selenium is valuable to assist the body being able to shrink polyps where ever they occur in the body and a therapeutic dose is found at our recommended dosage.
Gallbladder polyps are best to be monitored regularly and assistance is recommended if yours continues to grow.

I have had some left side stomach pain (radiating to left shoulder) & diarrhea around 20 years ago & done my abdomen USG then which said some cyst in liver (I dont have size & measurements now) Things went well for years. An Ultrasound done in 2011 (regular check up) said I am having grade 1 fatty liver and was asked to reduce weight. Later as a part of regular medical check up in Dec 2015 & 2017 the report said "elongated cystic area in the left lobe of the liver measuring 4.0 X 0.8 cm - possibly a simple cyst / prominent vein. No internal change in size & morphology to previous scan dated Dec 2015".
I have some mild pain in left side under the ribs which is ok now. I am 45 years old man weight 80 Kg and do some moderate exercise however unable to reduce my weight. My questions - 1) Is the cyst making the pain in my left side under ribs ? 2) What can be done to remove or eliminate the cyst with diet or pills /medicine although there is no pain in my right side but feel uncomfortable at the upper stomach side & have a black spot there ?

Thank you for your enquiry.
Please read the article at the following link, and keep for future reference,https://www.liverdoctor.com/liver-problems/polycystic-liver-disease/.
There are a number of strategies you may find beneficial to reduce the size of your present cysts and reduce the incidence of further cysts developing.
A diet high in low starch vegetables and vegetable forms of protein are encouraged.
Modest amounts of animal protein is recommended and dairy foods to be removed from the diet completely, to reduce the level of novel hormones entering your system.
Sugars, starches, damaged fats, artificial sweeteners, processed foods are quite toxic to the liver and best avoided.
Hormones are very detrimental when PLD is present and this makes it important to reduce exposure to xenoestrogens, OCP or HRT.
To guard the health of your liver and kidneys, Dr Cabot prescribes
Vitamin D 5,000iu – 1 capsule daily. Please have a Vitamin D blood test to ensure this dose is sufficient.
Livatone Plus – 1 to 2 capsules twice daily, to improve liver function.
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC 600mg) – 1 to 2 capsules twice daily well away from food, if any upset occurs take at the beginning of your meals. This supplement works well with Livatone Plus to get your liver better faster.
MSM + Vitamin C – ½ to 1 teaspoon twice daily in vegetable juice or water to reduce oxidation, inflammation and boost liver health.

Had biliary colic on 19th March 2017 and abdominal ultrasound showed thickened gallbladder wall, no stones, no dilation. Biliary crystals seen. Right lobe of liver was noted to have 28×28×32 mm complex loculated cyst. Should i be worried about this complex cyst ?
You may not be producing enough bile to keep waste products from your liver in suspension while in the Gallbladder and this may lead to the thickening of the wall you have.
Biliary crystals are often the beginnings of gallstones.

“Minimal Diffuse Parenchymal Liver Disease Suggestive of Non Alcoholic Fatty Infiltrationwith Simple Cyst” is just a way of the doctor writing the ultrasound report saying that they think you have Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and a Simple Liver Cyst.
We recommend you talk to your doctor to see if it requires medical attention, especially if it is causing any discomfort.
Dr Cabot recommends following the eating program in her book: 'Fatty Liver: You Can Reverse It'.
This will help to reverse the NAFLD and possibly shrink the cyst over time.

It has taken 10 years to triple in size, and with good liver function it may be that more of your liver tissue is breaking down naturally.
To ensure there is nothing to concern yourself about Dr Cabot recommends you have CA 19-9 and CEA tumor markers tested.
To stop this breakdown Dr Cabot recommends you change your diet to a less liver inflammatory one, if this is necessary.
Please remove all processed food, artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup, and all gluten containing foods.
Replace these with home prepared meals with lots of fresh vegetables, moderate portions of protein, and at least 1 quart of water daily.
Dr Cabot also recommends you begin taking
Livatone Plus – 1 capsule twice daily, to improve liver function.
