The liver is incredibly important. It helps process nutrients in our food, makes bile, removes toxic substances from the body and is involved in the building of proteins. A liver that doesn't function properly means that nutrients are no longer effectively processed and we become vitamin and mineral deficient. In addition, a malfunctioning liver cannot pull out toxins from the blood, and instead, these toxins get re-absorbed into our cells, accumulating and creating problems that manifest in forms of different illnesses and disease.
Taking care of our liver is incredibly important! Avoiding alcohol, refined sugar & processed foods, and fatty foods is your first step to healing the liver. Getting rid of the root of the problem, and repairing the liver with natural foods is a recipe for liver-repairing success! Start with these three liver cleansing juices to get your liver functioning properly again!

ReplyDeleteIt’s really great article on why we should cleanse liver! I never knew about the points shared here. I think to cleanse the liver Green drink is really important to take, for its health benefits. I make green drink with spinach, cauliflower, tomatoes and some seasonal fruits. Only a glass of drink completely full my stomach and it helps in reducing weight too.
ReplyDeleteHi, do you add water; and if so, how much??
ReplyDeleteI don't have a juicer, just a blender. If I put it in the blender on liquify and strain out the solids, do you think it would have the same health benefits? A juicer is just not in my budget right now. thanks.
