There’s so much more to learn about the liver – but we’ll leave that for another day. For now, let’s focus on what we can do to help the liver function at a higher level. My recipe (below) can help – but, first, here are some interesting facts:
Did you know that the liver can completely rehabilitate itself given the proper support it needs to function optimally?
The liver helps us by taking toxins out of our blood so that our blood can be as clean as possible as it flows through each one of our internal organs such as the heart, pancreas, stomach, intestines and spleen.

The liver also cleans blood that has just been enriched with vitamins and minerals during digestion. After you’ve eaten something, the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients from the food pass from the intestine into the blood.
Before going out to the rest of the body, the nutrient-rich blood makes a stop at the liver. It processes the good stuff into forms that the rest of the body can use.

Waste or stuff your body doesn’t need can be carried by bile back into the intestine and out of the body when you defecate. Other waste processed by the liver goes through your blood to your kidneys and out when you urinate. It’s truly an amazing organ – isn’t it?

Let’s face it, living healthy is the best way to care for the liver. The liver can be damaged if a person is overweight, drinks too much alcohol, has a stressful life, drinks too much coffee and eats too many unnatural sugars.

Try to keep yourself physically active, eat well, and your liver will keep on loving you back
