OCTOBER 29, 2024 PROTECT YOUR LIVER

One of the most vital yet underappreciated needs is a healthy liver. We all have bad habits- alcohol, certain foods, too much Tylenol or Motrin type medications * Non steroidal anti inflammatory ) and even some herbs

Drinking alcohol can quickly lead to damage to your physical and mental health. The most notorious consequence of drinking too much is liver damage caused by long-term alcohol abuse. Excessive alcohol consumption impacts the form and action of organs in the body, particularly those responsible for metabolizing toxins like the liver. Being sober 30 years gives me a different perspective and view on alcoholism. I respect the damage of alcohol.

I stopped using excessive salt in my diet. Have you ever seen someone salt their food even before tasting it ? Eating too much food high in sodium can have nasty consequences for your body. The most significant of these are potential liver damage. Excessive amounts of sodium can cause an accumulation of fluid in the liver, which in turn leads to inflammation and scarring

Then you have foods and herbs to protect your liver. These are fruit and vegetables, nut and seeds and water. The herbs that protect your liver are dandelion, milk thistle, globe artichoke, and all the bitter herbs

Keep your liver healthy today

Until tomoorrow.
