To function at full capacity, the liver needs to be pampered. Among the plants that are the most popular are turmeric , black pepper, and linden . In infusion form, they will become a must-have after a heavy meal or a night of heavy drinking. We might as well warn you right away (and we mean it), you won't be able to live without them!
Located at the heart of the digestive system, the liver is on all fronts!
Multifunctional, it performs three vital daily functions: a purification function, a synthesis function, and a storage function. Three missions that never frighten the body's largest organ.
It's after meals that the liver comes into play: it stores and distributes the nutrients from digestion, breaks down toxic substances, and synthesizes blood proteins, not forgetting to protect the bile. A formidable mission that requires champion training!
And that's where plants come in. Thanks to their benefits, they will help us take care of our liver, detoxify it, and even give it a boost.
Traditionally sought after for its antioxidant and digestive effects, turmeric is logically a friend of the liver.
In Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, it is even one of the ancestral remedies recommended for jaundice.
How does turmeric protect the stomach and liver? Quite simply by stimulating bile secretions. In addition to its protective action, turmeric has the ability to stimulate the liver, prevent the accumulation of fat (by facilitating its removal), and fight against gastric acidity. By encouraging mucus secretion, turmeric is even able to protect the liver and even manage to alleviate nausea.
It is therefore a powerful ally for supporting normal liver function! In combination with black pepper, it would be even more effective in relieving the liver (since curcumin would be better assimilated).
A regular on our plates, black pepper also works wonders in the cup. When it's added to an infusion, it sets a completely different tone. Rich in antioxidants, the berry helps protect and detoxify the liver. Aside from its detoxifying effect , black pepper can also aid digestion.
The piperine it contains doesn't just tickle our taste buds, it also excites our salivary glands and stimulates our digestive enzymes to soothe digestion. Behind its spicy side, there are actually soothing properties and a lot of wisdom, to allow us to digest serenely and feel lighter before going to bed.
If linden works so well with the liver, it is because it contributes to its drainage (and that of the gallbladder).
An excellent diuretic, it will definitely give the liver a helping hand to accomplish its filtering mission as best as possible.
While linden helps us cleanse the body of the little excesses of the moment and purify it, it is also capable of relieving many of the small daily ailments. Disturbed sleep, stress, anxiety, migraines, anxiety episodes: linden tea will help you feel good from head to toe, including the liver, of course!
