Four Food Groups to Kick-Start Your Liver
Struggling with poor sleep, irritability, weight gain (especially around the middle) and poor digestion. The best way to get all these things back on track is by doing a cleanse.
Here’s 4 food groups that can start you on the way:
· Go green. Veges such as kale, broccoli, cabbage, watercress and brussel sprouts.
· Spring into sulphur. Cruciferous vegetables, eggs, onions, raw garlic, leaks and spring onion are all excellent sources of sulphur compounds.
· Bitter is better. Excellent bitter foods include rocket, endives, mustard leaf, dandelion greens, kale, turmeric and grapefruit. These foods help to promote natural detoxification by the liver and reduce cravings for sweet foods.
· Antioxidants Fresh fruits and vegetables, and herbs and spices, provide an abundance of natural antioxidants. Some of the highest-rated antioxidant foods include goji berries, blueberries, raw dark chocolate, rosemary, thyme, turmeric. - Holistic Medical Centre
