The best foods for cleansing the liver: the power of cruciferous vegetables

清潔肝臟的最佳食物:十字花科蔬菜的力量

Why does the liver need to be cleansed?

The liver is the only internal organ capable of complete regeneration; it can regain full function with only 25% of its tissue remaining. However, this process requires up to three and a half years of a healthy diet. The liver is responsible for more than 500 functions, including:

  • It produces proteins and hormones (such as IGF and growth hormone).
  • Regulating blood sugar and storing sugar
  • Storing fat-soluble vitamins
  • Detoxification and metabolic waste
  • Assists the thyroid gland in converting T4 to T3

Liver health is inextricably linked to overall health. If liver function is impaired, many symptoms may not appear until 95% of the liver tissue has been damaged.

Cruciferous vegetables are the best choice for liver cleansing.

The foods that best promote liver health are cruciferous vegetables, including:

  • Kale
  • Collard Greens
  • Cabbage
  • Broccoli
  • Brussels Sprouts
  • Radish

These vegetables are rich in:

  • Vitamins, minerals, amino acids and trace elements
  • Phytonutrients (such as Indole-3-Carbinol , Sulforaphane , Isoflavonoids , etc.)

Phytonutrients have antioxidant, anti-cancer, vision-protecting, and cell-function-restoring effects.

How do cruciferous vegetables help the liver?

These types of vegetables can activate the liver's "stage one and stage two detoxification enzymes":

  • Phase 1: Breaking down toxins into smaller molecules
  • Second stage: Completely eliminate the decomposed toxins from the body.

Unlike conventional herbal cleansing methods, cruciferous vegetables can gently complete the detoxification process without causing discomfort or a "detox reaction".

How can I determine if I need liver cleansing?

  • A protruding abdomen (beer belly) may be a sign of fatty liver disease.
  • Normal blood test results do not necessarily mean healthy liver.
  • Those who consume processed foods, sugar, alcohol, or drugs over a long period of time should pay more attention.

Practical suggestions

  • Consume cruciferous vegetables daily, such as kale and cauliflower.
  • You can make a "kale and blueberry smoothie" as an everyday drink.
  • If you plan to undergo dietary adjustments or a cleansing treatment, you can refer to Chapter 10, "Liver Strengthening," in Dr. Berg's book.
