Is it right to eat boiled eggs for breakfast to detoxify the liver

Eating boiled eggs for breakfast to detoxify the liver is a controversial issue and there is not enough clear scientific evidence to confirm its effectiveness.

The liver is an important organ in detoxifying and metabolizing waste and toxins in the body. Many medical studies have shown that the liver has the ability to self-cleanse and repair thanks to functions such as metabolism, production of bile and decomposing toxins.

According to a study by the World Health Organization, the liver has the ability to process and eliminate toxins by metabolizing fat, protein and carbohydrates. However, in some cases such as when the liver is damaged by disease, supporting a reasonable diet will help improve liver health.

Chicken eggs, especially boiled eggs, are a source of high-quality protein and vitamins such as A, B12, D and minerals such as selenium. The protein in chicken eggs plays an important role in supporting liver cells in the process of regeneration and recovery. Protein-rich foods like eggs help support tissue repair and protect liver cells from damage.

However, to say that boiled eggs have a detoxifying effect on the liver is a concept that has not been clearly proven through scientific research. Studies on detoxification mainly focus on measures to support the liver such as maintaining a healthy diet, limiting alcohol, using supplements of vitamins and minerals to support the liver and drinking enough water.

Studies from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also recommend that the liver can best detoxify itself when we maintain a healthy lifestyle, not relying solely on a single food.

Although chicken eggs are a nutritious food that is beneficial to health, it cannot be confirmed that eating boiled eggs for breakfast will help detoxify the liver effectively. It is important to maintain a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle to support the liver to function best.
