Keeping Your Liver Healthy And You Happy The liver cleans the blood in your body. The liver supports the digestive system, controls blood sugar and regulates fat storage. It stores and mobilizes energy, and produces more proteins than any other organ in the body. It also regulates your blood flow. In addition to taking a liver-cleansing supplement, and performing at least two liver cleanses per year, eating the following foods is the best way to keep your liver healthy and functioning the way you need it to. Holistic Healing Studio encourages you to incorporate these liver cleansing foods into your weekly diet. Avocado This nutrient-dense super-food helps the body produce glutathione, a compound that is necessary for the liver to cleanse harmful toxins. Beets Beets are high in plant-flavonoids and beta-carotene; eating beets can help stimulate and improve overall liver function. Olive Oil Cold-pressed organic oils such as olive, hemp and flax-seed are great for the liver, when used in moderation. They help the body by providing a lipid base that can suck up harmful toxins in the body. In this way, it takes some of the burden off the liver in terms of the toxic overload many of us suffer from. Lemons & Limes These citrus fruits contain very high amounts of vitamin C, which aids the body in synthesizing toxic materials into substances that can be absorbed by water. Drinking freshly-squeezed lemon or lime juice in the morning helps stimulate the liver. Turmeric The liver’s favorite spice. Try adding some of this detoxifying goodness into your next lentil stew or veggie dish for an instant liver pick-me-up. Turmeric helps boost liver detox, by assisting enzymes that actively flush out dietary carcinogens. Garlic Just a small amount of this pungent white bulb has the ability to activate liver enzymes that help your body flush out toxins. Garlic also holds high amounts of allicin and selenium, two natural compounds that aid in liver cleansing. Build your nutritional wealth & health and add more relaxation in your life! Join Us!
