Hi Jerry
You can heal the condition with the following ideas. Learn about juice fasting/ detoxification and be sure to do a colon and liver cleanse to clean out the toxins in the blood.
Cause
Liver function can be impaired by a toxic bowel. Most pharmaceutical drugs, if taken on a consistent basis, can also cause liver disease. If you are on such medications, be sure to have your liver function monitored regularly (every 3-6 months) by your physician, and consider other healing alternatives that might reduce or eliminate your need for medications.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Natural Cures
Aromatherapy: Juniper, rosemary, and rose essential oils can all help stimulate liver function.
Detoxification: Liver function can also be impaired by a toxic bowel. For this reason, bowel cleansing and rejuvenation techniques may be very important. In severe cases, repeat the bowel cleanse once a month, or as needed, and stay on bowel nutrients for up to one year depending on the severity of your condition and your response to treatment.
Diet: Diet is extremely important in preventing and reversing all forms of liver disease, including cirrhosis. Eat a low-protein, whole foods diet of organic foods, including seeds, nuts, whole grains, beans, nuts, and goat or rice milk, and also eat plenty of leafy green vegetables. Avoid all alcohol and processed fats such as margarine, hydrogenated oils, and foods with these oils added, rancid oils, and hardened vegetable fats. Instead, use cold-processed oils such as olive. Also increase your consumption of foods high in amino acids and potassium, such as nuts, seeds, bananas, raisins, rice, wheat bran, kelp, dulse, brewer`s yeast, and molasses, and drink plenty of pure, filtered water. Avoid animal protein as well as raw or undercooked fish, and limit your overall intake of fish.
Also avoid all stressors on the liver, such as overeating, drugs of any kind, a highly processed diet (especially one high in processed fats, additives and preservatives), and foods high in animal protein, and accumulation of toxins from chemicals that have to be processed by the liver such as alcohol, drugs, acetaminophen, insecticides, and chemicals from rancid and processed oils. Toxins from Candida yeast organisms within the body can also contribute to liver stress, as can the use of contraceptives.
Herbs: Milk thistle is an excellent herb to help in the treatment of cirrhosis because it helps liver cells regenerate. It may be taken in the form of tablets or the non-alcohol extract called a glycerate. The dose is based upon the content of silymarin (the active ingredient of milk thistle) and so standardized extracts are preferable. The typical dosage range is 70-200 mg of silymarin daily. The herb Picrorhiza kurroa is not as well-known as milk thistle, but may have similar effects. Licorice can also be helpful. The Chinese herb bupleurum (chai-hu) may also be helpful, as can the herbal mixture of kutki (200 mg), shanka pushpi (500 mg), and guduchi (300 mg), with is used by practitioners of Ayurvedic medicine to boost liver function. Take 1/4 teaspoon of this mixture taken twice a day, after lunch and dinner, with aloe vera juice.
Juice Therapy: The following juices can help the liver eliminate toxins that cause stress on it: beet and carrot juice and wheat grass juice. To either juice, you can add raw flaxseed oil and garlic as tolerated.
Nutritional Supplementation: Lipotrophic factor nutrients are essential for aiding liver function. These include vitamin C, vitamin E, silymarin, lipoic acid, and raw liver tablets. Other useful nutrients in this regard include vitamin B complex, vitamin B12, folic acid, niacin (in small doses such as 10-30 mg. three times), liver glandulars, digestive enzymes with hydrochloric acid (HCL) and ox bile extract, and the amino acids L-methionine, L-carnitine, L-cysteine, L-glutathione, and L-arginine.
Best of health to you

Liver cirrhosis is parenchymal (tissue) destruction of the liver and the most common cause is alcoholism, though there are other causes. Tylenol overdose by accident or suicide attempt can result in liver failure or cirrhosis. Some infectious causes can predispose to it. There are some idiopathic (cause cannot be determined) cases.
Despite what the herbalists are saying, no natural remedy is going to reverse the damage of cirrhosis. The problem is that the natural cellular architecture of the liver is already damaged and cannot fix itself. The best treatment for cirrhosis is to stop any further progression of the condition by eliminating alcohol or any other hepatotoxic compounds. I'd be VERY careful about taking unknown herbal remedies only on the basis of one person saying "Oh yeah...it works. I've seen it work before." The baseline function of your liver can be determined with blood tests that check for specific enzymes your liver produces. Any physician's office should be able to check this for you.
The only true cure for liver cirrhosis is a liver transplant. If alcoholism is the source, usually you'll have to be clean for 6 months before you can be approved for a transplant. This is because your liver may regain enough functionality once the insult of daily alcohol ingestion is gone, and also because transplant surgeons aren't too keen on going to all the work of a transplant to have the donor liver destroyed by continued alcohol consumption.

Although there is no cure for cirrhosis of the liver, there are treatments available that can stop or delay its progress, minimize the damage to liver cells, and reduce complications.
The treatment used depends on the cause of cirrhosis of the liver.
For cirrhosis caused by alcohol abuse, the person must stop drinking alcohol to halt the progression of cirrho
, My friend found many ways to treat his liver disease so he found a web and admit it,he know the natural measures to have effective treatment. you can see the web at here: http://adola.net/go/fattyliver-bible/

The liver metabolizes medication, alcohol, and toxins. When it is overloaded the first level of damage is called a fatty liver. The liver is able to regenerate itself, provided the damage is not too severe. When the liver scars and hardens in places, and is no longer able to do its job or repair itself, you have cirrhosis. There is no cure.

LIVER CIRRHOSIS IS DAMAGE CAUSED TO THE LIVER BY ABUSING THE BODY. MOST CASES ARE CAUSED BY EXCESSIVE ALCOHOL USE, AND/OR EXCESSIVE DRUG USE. IF THE DAMAGE IS NOT TOO SEVERE, INTERFURON THERAPY MAY HELP THE PROBLEM, BUT IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE, AND IS A LOT LIKE CHEMOTHERAPY. YOU NEED TO TALK TO A DR THAT SPECIALIZES IN INTERNAL MEDICINE, AND BE SURE TO BE TESTED FOR HEPATITIS C AND HIV.

Instead of sitting and reading through, listen to books on tape since you walk, clean, or garden.

Preset the timer on the TV to turn off after a couple of hours to remind you to take a step more active.
