Unless there is the liver damage which induces head pressing and confusion after a high protein meal, the liver needs high quality, high protein in order to regenerate, it is not supposed to have low protein.

I would opt for an Atkins type diet for weight loss and overall health, be it raw or homecooked.

I am a big fan of Country Life's Liver Support Factors for high liver values.

There is another Wobbler's post on the forum right now, just pointing it out in case you haven't seen it.
