1. Drink warm water immediately after waking up
After a long sleep, the body is dehydrated and the liver needs to "activate" the function of blood filtration. Drinking 300 - 500ml of warm water immediately after waking up helps increase blood circulation to the liver, supporting the liver to work more effectively. You can add a few slices of lemon or ginger to increase the detoxification effect.
2. Practice deep breathing or light movement for 10 - 15 minutes
According to the Mayo Clinic, deep breathing helps increase blood oxygen levels, reducing oxidative stress on the liver. Some stretching, yoga or light walking in the morning will boost metabolism, helping the liver process toxins accumulated overnight more effectively.
3. Don't miss breakfast, choose dishes with less sugar - rich in fiber
The liver needs energy to function. Skipping breakfast causes the liver to use stored energy, causing metabolic disorders. Breakfast should include whole grains, vegetables, boiled eggs or oatmeal to be both gentle and rich in nutrients. Harvard Health says that people who eat a scientific breakfast have significantly better liver function.
Note:
These habits do not replace medicine if you have liver disease. However, if you maintain it regularly, it will help the liver stay healthy, improve digestion and overall energy every day.
