The liver is a large organ that sits on the right side of the belly, with its weight of about three pounds. It has a reddish-brown color and has two large sections, called the right and left lobes. While most people are aware and believe that alcohol abuse can cause damage to the liver, this is far from the only way the liver sustains damage. When the liver becomes damaged or compromised, it can’t do its job of detoxifying the body [1] as well. When this occurs, the liver needs help. These simple ways to detoxify your liver can help your liver to be healthy again, so it can perform its function and promote overall health.
Drink Lots of Water
Drinking water is one of the effective ways [2] of detoxifying the liver might often seem simplistic. Surprisingly, water helps the liver move toxins through its cellular systems and aid the fast movement of toxins on their way out of your body.
Do not drink any kind of water without confirming its purity and its ability to detoxify. You can drink filtered tap water stored at room temperature at specific intervals of the day like immediately you wake up, in between meals, and in the early evening. Ensure you drink lots of water at least two hours before bedtime to wake up feeling refreshed. Also, you can add a tiny pinch of salt and spice turmeric to your water to boost its effectiveness.
Intake of 4 liters of water per day will be perfect for detoxifying the liver and also stay away from carbonated water or water in plastic beverage containers.
