According to nutritional studies, passion fruit is rich in polyphenols, soluble fiber and antioxidants, factors that play a role in supporting the liver in the detoxification and anti-inflammation process.
According to Ms. Frances Largeman-Roth, a nutritionist (US), author of many books on healthy foods: "Eated nuts in fruits, including passion fruit, provide polyphenols that help reduce oxidative stress, one of the factors that cause liver weakness over time".
Here are 3 simple recipes for drinks made from passion fruit, easy to make at home.
Warm passion fruit and honey seed water
How to do:
Take the passion fruit intestines, filter the water, and retain the seeds. Soak the seeds in warm water (about 4050°C) for 10 minutes, then add 1 tablespoon of pure honey.
Benefits:
Honey has mild anti-inflammatory properties, combined with polyphenols in passion fruit to help support free radical neutrality. This drink is suitable for morning use, helping the digestive system and liver to "starter" gently.
Fresh ginger passion fruit juice
How to do:
Soak the passion fruit in warm water, add a few slices of crushed fresh ginger, cook for 1015 minutes, can be drunk warm or cool.
Benefits:
According to Dr. Andrew Weil, an integrative medicine physician (University of Arizona, USA), ginger helps improve circulation and support liver function, especially in cases of overloaded liver due to eating a lot of fat.
Seed lemon juice diluted with lemon
How to do:
Gently thoroughly blend the passion fruit with water, strain the crude pulp, mix a few drops of lemon juice, without added sugar.
Benefits:
Vitamin C from lemons combined with antioxidants in passion fruit helps support liver enzymes and the body's natural detoxification process.
Experts note that these drinks only have a supportive effect, not a replacement for liver treatment drugs. People with chronic liver disease, weak stomach or taking medication should consult a doctor before using it regularly. Maintaining a balanced diet, limiting alcohol and getting enough sleep are still the most important foundations for a healthy liver in the long term.
