The liver is an important organ that performs the function of filtering blood, metabolizing nutrients and removing toxins from the body. However, the liver is very vulnerable to diet high in oil, alcohol or exposure to chemicals. The use of familiar herbs in daily life to support liver detoxification is highly appreciated by experts.
According to WebMD, one of the most popular types of leaves is artichoke. This leaf contains cynarin and silymarin - two active ingredients that support liver cleansing, promote bile production and improve liver function. In addition, artichokes also help reduce cholesterol and aid digestion, especially suitable for people who often eat a lot of protein or drink alcohol.
Another easy-to-find leaf is the down-cheoep (also known as the dog that gives off toothpick). According to research, ha Cuu Trinh has the ability to protect liver cells, reduce inflammation and support liver recovery after damage. However, it should not be used continuously for more than 2 weeks because it can cause low blood pressure or affect digestion.
Users can color fresh or dried artichoke leaves to drink daily, or combine with other herbal teas such as corn silk, goji berries to increase effectiveness. However, it is necessary to pay attention to using the right dosage, avoid overusing, and consult a medical professional if treating chronic liver disease.
