The Best Natural Colon Cleanse And Liver Detox Smoothie

How To Detox And Cleanse Your Liver Naturally?

To detox your liver and cleanse it naturally you need a gentle slow approach. You don’t want to overload it with a fast influx of toxins. Using beets to support liver’s detox function by activating liver’s enzymes and increase bile is a great way to do it.

By making a beet smoothie recipe which incorporates both the juice and the fiber, you will tackle multiple problems at once: constipation, bloating and inflammation while getting a high amount of antioxidants.

Also don’t forget to enhance your body’s natural detoxification system by eliminating alcohol, desserts, getting adequate sleep and exercise, staying hydrated and by following healthy habits that help maintain a strong immune system.

Why Is This The Best Liver And Colon Cleanse Smoothie

• This liver detox smoothie will help to heal the colon and liver function by gradually improving elimination, reducing inflammation [1] and constipation.

Colon Cleanse And Liver Detox Smoothie Tips

• You can make some changes in the ingredient list according to your preference. Like substitute pear for apple (these two are the only fruits that pair well with vegetables in smoothies without upsetting your stomach) or add some celery root, turmeric powder or spirulina for extra benefits. I usually opt for this freeze dried organic spirulina. Increase the amount of ingredients gradually depending on your healing demands.

• It is not recommended to mix other fruits with vegetables besides apples or pear because the fruits may ferment, cause gas and slow down digestion when mixed with other foods.

Carrots

Most of the benefits of carrots can be attributed to their beta-carotene and fiber content but that’s not all. They also have manganese, phosphorus, copper, potassium, vitamin B1, B2, B6 and vitamin K, C, E.

Carrots are rich in antioxidants but because of high pesticide residues, it’s important to choose organic, especially when eating the skin.

Beets

Beet root is very well known for it’s powerful antioxidant and phase II enzyme-inducing activities, anti-inflammatory, fungicidal and a detoxification aid substance and even anti-cancer properties.

The beets are also a good source of dietary fiber, magnesium, phosphorus, vitamin C, iron and vitamin B6, also folate, manganese, potassium and copper.

All these nutrients will support kidneys and gall bladder healing, also improve stomach acid levels and normalize high blood pressure.

How to prepare beets for smoothie? Just peel and quarter. Don’t bake them, you need the enzymes and nutrients intact!

Apples

Apples are full of vitamin A – a powerful antioxidant, also a rich source of fiber, B vitamins (B1,B2, B3, B5 and B9), vitamin C, E, K.

Most of the vitamin C and vitamin A are in the skin, so don’t peal your apples if you want to really benefit from them.

Try to choose ecologically pure apples as the conventional ones are top fruits contaminated with pesticides, especially their skin.

Ginger

Ginger root  also has a complex of B vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, Vitamin C, E as well minerals like Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sodium and Zinc.

Ginger boosts your body’s natural capacity to absorb nutrients. It also has great anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal properties which make it a reliable ally against most acute infections.

Parsley

Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), Thiamin,Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Pantothenic Acid (B5), Phosphorus and Zinc, Vitamin A, C, K, Folate, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, Copper and Manganese.

Apigenin and myristicin (found in parsley) boost the productivity of one of our liver’s enzymes that helps in detoxing our bodies. It activates the production of glutathione which makes it a great heavy metal detox tool, preventing them from doing damage.

Plus helps the body clear out extra mucus. In order to achieve good results try adding more than a few strands of parley in your leaver detox smoothie.

Flax Seeds

These seeds are nutritionally unique, they have high content of omega-3 essential fatty acids, dietary fiber, vitamin B1, copper, magnesium, phosphorus and selenium.

Flax seeds are mucilaginous performing anti-ulcer activity in the intestinal tract. It is necessary to include at least 3 tablespoons in your diet per day for a while before noticing any improvements.

Hemp Oil

Hemp has perfect and natural blend of easily digested proteins, excellent ratio of essential fats (Omega 3 & 6), Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), antioxidants, amino acids, fiber, iron, zinc, carotene, phospholipids, phytosterols, vitamin B1, B2, B6,vitamin D, E, chlorophyll, calcium, magnesium, sulfur and copper.
