Liver Cleanse
This is an excellent liver cleanse recipe that we have adapted from about four or five other liver cleanse recipes that we have tried over the years. It's been supercharged with a few extra ingredients.
It's recommend that you do this over the weekend, and in the morning. It is particularly effective if you have undertaken some light exercise such as walking or jogging prior to the liver cleanse as this helps to get the toxins moving out of the body and invigorates the lymph system.
After the juice we recommend some breathing exercises to help the lymph flow on its way.
Ingredients
- Grapefruit - 2 Large
- Lemon - 4
- Alkaline water (or filtered, pref both) - 300ml
- Udo’s Choice - 2 Tablespoons
- Acidophillus - 1 Teaspoon
- Cloves of Fresh Garlic - 1-2
- Fresh Root Ginger - 2 Inches
- Cayenne Pepper - Optional for more spice!
Instructions
- Squeeze the juice of the grapefruit and lemon into a blender
- Grate the garlic and the ginger, and then using a garlic press, squeeze this into the juice
- Add the water, Udo’s and acidophilus powder and blend for 30 seconds
- Add more ginger/garlic to taste
This juice contains all of the most potent liver cleansing ingredients.
It gives your liver a gentle flush and the opportunity to heal itself.
There are no side effects to this drink, apart from a bit of garlic-breath for a while. However, the grapefruit removes most of the odour.
We have also been told that this liver cleanse recipe is the most incredible hangover cure in the world – so it might be worth bearing in mind just for that!
It contains everything you would need to cure a hangover (vitamin c, omega 3, probiotics, water, ginger) so we can see how it would work!
This Juice is very low in Cholesterol and Sodium. It is also a very good source of Vitamin C. It is a good source of vitamins A, E, K, Thiamin, B6, Folate and the alkaline salts Magnesium and Potassium.
