6-INGREDIENT LEMON-GINGER LIVER DETOX JUICE TO STOP YOUR BODY FROM STORING TOXINS IN FAT

The liver does the main detoxification and depending on your diet or environment, it can get seriously bogged down.

When you consume too much processed foods or alcohol, are physically inactive or just live in a polluted environment, the liver can accumulate a lot of toxins and will be unable to process them all. As a result, toxic compounds will be stored in the tissue and will severely damage your overall health.

Health benefits

Beets and Carrots are extremely high in beta-carotene (vitamin A) and plant flavonoids. These foods can stimulate and improve the overall liver function.

Kale

One of the most powerful cleansing agents, kale can eliminate toxins from the bloodstream. It can be eaten raw, cooked or juiced and is able to neutralize toxic chemicals, metals and pesticides.

Apples

Apples are rich in pectin, a compound that can help the body get rid of toxins from the digestive tract. With this, it makes the job easier for the liver to handle the toxic load during the cleansing process.

Lemon

Lemons contain high amounts of vitamin C that are able to synthesize toxic materials into substances that can be absorbed by water. Drinking lemon juice in the morning can help stimulate the liver function.

Ginger root

One of the most effective ingredients used in the treatment of constipation, bloating or flatulence is the ginger. It also found that ginger can be very effective for stress-related ulcers.
