Ginger- cooked broccoli soup
Ingredients:
200g broccoli (or spinach)
1 small ginger root (about 10g), thinly sliced
1 liter of water

Wash the broccoli, cut it into bite-sized pieces.

Broccoli contains many antioxidants and chlorophyll, which help the liver effectively eliminate toxins. Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties, aids digestion and enhances liver function.
Sauteed carrots

2 carrots, peeled and sliced
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil

Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which supports the liver in the detoxification process. Turmeric contains curcumin, a powerful anti-inflammatory, which helps protect the liver from damage.
Steamed tofu with coriander and lemon juice
Ingredients:
1 piece of white tofu (about 200g)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped coriander
1 teaspoon olive oil
Spices: Salt, pepper
How to do:

Tofu is a good source of plant protein, low in fat, helping the liver not to be overloaded. Lemon is rich in vitamin C, which helps the liver produce glutathione, an important antioxidant.
Dr. Tinsay Woreta, a liver expert at Johns Hopkins Medicine, recommends that the liver has the ability to detoxify itself if supported by a healthy diet and reasonable lifestyle. Supplementing foods rich in antioxidants and fiber as above can help the liver function more effectively.
Adding simple dishes such as ginger broccoli soup, stir-fried carrots and steamed tofu with coriander and lemon juice to your daily meals not only helps purify the liver but also improves overall health. Combined with a healthy lifestyle, these dishes will be a powerful support for your liver leaves.
