5 foods to help give your liver a much needed detox

If you went a little overboard at the weekend, no doubt your liver is crying out for a detox. Give it some much needed TLC with these super cleansing foods.

Garlic
No, it’s not good to eat this on a first date or before job interview, but it is pretty beneficial if you over indulged on the wine. It helps to flush out toxins and cleanse the liver.

Green tea
Green tea is getting a pretty good wrap lately and it is not surprising. It is full of antioxidants making it perfect after a night out.

Lemons
Lemon in hot water is great for stimulating the liver, helping it to do its job right.

Avocado
Avocado is another example of a pretty trendy ingredient. It helps the body get rid of toxins by helping it produce glutathione.

Carrots
Chew on some carrots sticks to help detoxify the liver. Just like the avocado, the carrot contains glutathione, although it has the added benefits of vitamin C, B and potassium.
