Pumpkin is loaded with nutrients that our livers can easily store. High in carotenoids that protect liver cells from damage, the glucose in pumpkin can stabilize the liver, allowing blood sugar to stabilize overall in the body. Pumpkin is a rich source of B-vitamins such as niacin, thiamin, and pantothenic acid and minerals like calcium, potassium, and phosphorus. It is an excellent food for aiding weight loss and for reducing cholesterol.
Bananas provide quick fuel to the liver and wakes up sleepy cells, increasing their ingenuity and work output. Bananas also soothe the linings of the intestinal tract and the nerves attached to the intestinal tract. Contrary to popular belief, bananas are one of the most antibacterial, anti-yeast, anti-fungal foods.
