Passion fruit is known as a refreshing, refreshing drink rich in vitamin C. However, few people know that this fruit also helps detoxify the liver, reduce the burden on the digestive system and enhance energy metabolism.
According to Healthline, passion fruit contains polyphenols, vitamins A, C and soluble fiber - ingredients that have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effects and protect liver cells from free radical damage. In addition, the fiber in passion fruit helps reduce fat and sugar absorption, thereby reducing fat accumulation in the liver.
Simple recipe to help detoxify the liver from passion fruit:
- 2 fresh monk fruit
- 200ml of filtered water or fresh coconut water
- 1 tablespoon pure honey
- (optional) a few fresh mint leaves
How to make: Cut the lemon in half, remove the intestines and put them in a glass. Add water (or coconut water) and honey, stir well. You can add ice or refrigerate it to enhance the flavor. Taking it 2-3 times a week in the morning is the time when the liver is most active in detoxifying.
Note: Do not eat lemon on an empty stomach or drink too much because the acid can irritate the stomach. People with stomach problems should take it after eating for 30 minutes.
