Liv-LongSupports the Most Important Detoxifying Organ in Your Body.

There is a reason your liver is the largest organ of your body (over 300 million cells). It is your BLOOD CLEANING FILTER. And as your liver goes, your skin, lungs, kidneys, brain, eyes, and life go.


Your liver protects you by cleaning your blood of toxic chemicals and poisons that are in the food, water, air and environment, and that are the byproduct of metabolism. Modern living and our modern diet overload your liver. And so your blood gets congested with thick, muddy, toxic sludge that further burdens your liver’s ability to do its enormous job.

Liv-Long helps in the following ways:

  • Helps the liver keep itself clean.
  • Supports healthy bile production & flow
  • Encourages comfortable digestion of fats
  • Provides gentle daily detox & liver support

Liv-Long was formulated by Dr. Kellas to help people going through the very toxic challenge of chemo therapy. Liv-Long was found to dramatically enhance the body's ability to handle such toxic onslaughts. It also improves the liver's handling  of overconsumption of alcohol. It was found to profoundly help in maintaining a clean blood stream.

🌿 Why Choose Liv-Long?

Because your life can feel lighter and clearer when your bloodstream is clean, bile is flowing and detox pathways are supported.

In modern life, our livers process more than ever—yet many of us overlook daily bile and liver support. Artichoke has been used to encourage bile flow and digestive comfort, while sarsaparilla has a long tradition as a gentle detox botanical. Together they offer focused, everyday support you can actually feel.

Interesting Both the number one and number two causes of mortality have to do with toxicity. The #1 cause of death is heart disease and strokes often caused by cholesterol blocking your coronary or cerebral arteries. It’s the liver’s job to control the level of cholesterol in the blood. The #2 cause of death is cancer. It is well known now that carcinogens or toxic materials in the body are a significant contributing factor to cancer. And, it is the liver’s job to keep your bloodstream clean.

What Our Liv-Long Product Is:

Liv-Long is a two-ingredient formula featuring concentrated extracts of artichoke root (Cynara floridanum) and sarsaparilla root (Smilax aristolochiaefolia), often spelled “sarsparilla”). No stimulants, no fillers — just straightforward botanical support for bile, digestion, & gentle detoxification.*

Liv-Long contains significant, and balanced amounts of these two ingredients that contribute significantly to maintaining internal cleanliness and liver strength.

What Does Liv-Long Do for Human Health?

🥗 Artichoke Root Extract — Bile Flow & Digestive Comfort*

Artichoke contains naturally occurring compounds (including phenolics such as cynarin) that are traditionally used to support the production and flow of bile. Healthy bile flow helps emulsify dietary fats and supports comfortable digestion. Many people notice meals feel “lighter” when bile moves as it should.*

🌱 Sarsaparilla Root Extract — Gentle Detox & Clear-Feeling Vitality*

Sarsaparilla provides saponins and related phytonutrients used historically to support detox pathways, clear skin, and joint comfort. It’s a gentle, botanical way to nudge the body’s natural cleansing processes without harsh laxatives or stimulants.*

🔗 The Duo — Simple, Synergistic, Daily Support*

Liv-Long combines these two botanicals for a focused formula that supports the liver–gallbladder–gut axis. No kitchen-sink blends—just targeted ingredients that align with Dr. Kellas’s philosophy of reducing toxicities and replenishing what’s needed.*

Human Studies & Reviews on Liv-Long Ingredients

Note: Most modern human trials on artichoke use leaf extract; artichoke root shares key phenolics (e.g., caffeoylquinic acids) but has fewer human studies. For sarsaparilla (Smilax spp.), modern human monotherapy trials are limited; several human studies use multi-herb formulas that include Smilax. Each item is labeled with its evidence tier.
