🌿 Your Liver, IS the Ultimate Multitasker. (Sorry Mum).
🔍 What does your Liver even do?⬇️
The liver is like your body’s personal chemist, filter, and factory. It:
• Filters toxins from the blood
• Metabolizes hormones and medications
• Stores vitamins and minerals (like Vitamin B12, A, D, Iron and Copper)
• Helps digest fats via bile production
• Regulates blood sugar and stores Glycogen
• Breaks down old red blood cells
💜 In Naturopathy, the Liver Is:
• The hero of detox, but gentle, daily support is better than harsh cleanses.
• Considered as most active in Spring, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine and seasonal healing cycles.
• A hotspot for emotional energy, especially anger and frustration—supporting the Liver may help release stuck emotions.
🍋 Fun Liver-Friendly Tips:
1. Stay hydrated with room temperature Water.
🌞Kickstart digestion and gently stimulate bile flow.
2. Opt for bitter greens.
🌿 Dandelion, arugula, mustard greens, and chicory to help activate liver enzymes.
3. Love your cruciferous veggies.
🥦 Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Brussel Sprouts boost detoxification enzymes in the Liver.
4. Sip on Liver herbs.
🍵 Milk thistle, dandelion root, and burdock root are classic liver-supporting herbs. *Speak to your Naturopath for access to these.
