Broccoli, rich in antioxidants, supports liver detoxification
Broccoli (including spinach, spinach, sweet cabbage...) is a food group rich in vitamin K, vitamin C, folate and powerful antioxidants such as glucosinolate. These are substances that help the body neutralize free radicals and help the liver eliminate toxins through bile.
According to Dr. Barbara Quinn, a clinical nutritionist at Stanford Medical Center (USA), shared with Health: "Glucosinolate in mustard can help the liver produce detoxification enzymes, neutralize them and remove toxins from the body".
Eating a boiled or stir-fried bowl of broccoli with olive oil for dinner is not only good for the liver, but also helps to digest easily, avoiding bloating before bed.
Vegetables that need water, diuretic, blood-clearing, good for people with fatty liver
Water spinach is a cool, slightly sweet vegetable, rich in fiber and minerals such as potassium, magnesium, calcium. In particular, celery has the ability to naturally diuretic, helping to eliminate excess sodium, which increases the burden on the liver and kidneys.
According to the World Health Organization, celery is very suitable for people who are treating fatty liver or have dyslipidemia. If eaten in the evening, you should cook soup or boil it to make it easier to absorb without causing indigestion.
Do not stir-fry celery with too much oil or use the same animal organs in the evening because it can be counterproductive, causing bloating and difficulty sleeping.
Broccoli, increases detoxification enzymes, prevents liver cancer
Broccoli is one of the vegetables that are highly appreciated for its ability to support liver function. Cabbage contains sulforaphane, a liver-stimulating compound that increases the production of detoxification enzymes and protects liver cells from damage.
Professor Jed Fahey, a nutrition research expert at Johns Hopkins University (USA), once published research results showing that: Sulforaphane in broccoli can significantly reduce the risk of liver cancer and improve liver function in people with chronic liver damage.
Broccoli can be steamed or lightly stir-fried with garlic, used as a dinner replacement for rice if you want to lose weight but still have enough energy.
