   • 2018, Anthony William, Medical Medium Liver Rescue:

     You can't buy elevated biotics packaged up in bottles at the store, and you can't even find them in fermented foods. They don't exist in any area of industry; they exist on a fresh sprout or microgreen or an organic apple you pick from a tree or on kale you pluck from your backyard plot. These elevated biotics create the strongest beneficial bacteria environment possible in the intestinal tract, and this greatly benefits the liver in ways undiscovered by medical research and science.
