Detoxify your Way to Great Health!

Cleansing your body is a powerful way to reset your health, regain energy and detox. Your liver is the hardest working organ in your

body. Liver booster juice recipe is an excellent way to help detoxify your blood and assist your liver to function properly. According to Josh Axe, M.D., when your liver is not functioning properly we cannot digest our foods, especially fats. The liver removes toxins from the blood, produces essential proteins and cholesterol (Contrary to what we’ve been taught to believe, cholesterol is needed in

every cell and is not bad.) Processes nutrients so they are more efficiently absorbed. And breakdown and metabolize alcohol and medications.

If organic produce is not available to you, at least adhere to the clean fifteen and avoid the dirty dozen.

 

Shop your local co-op, farmer’s market, and grow your own!
