19 Healthy Foods To Help Cleanse & Detoxify Your Liver

Protect your body from the harmful effects of toxins by eating these 19 healthy and detoxifying foods to help cleanse and detoxify your liver.

It’s no secret that we’re living in a toxic world. From air pollution to pesticides, to toxic effects of processed foods in our bodies, to drug residues in the water and chemicals in our personal care products, we are bombarded with dozens (if not hundreds) of toxins every day. While you may not immediately feel the effects of these poisons on your body, over time, they can accumulate to the degree that you become ill.

So how can we keep our bodies functioning optimally in this toxic landscape?

One method that many people try is a detox or cleansing program. While some of these are helpful and healthy, others can actually be hard on your body, and could even harm your health.

At the Holistic Health Wire, we prefer a more natural, gentle approach. Rather than undertaking an extreme detox program, why not simply try eating foods with healing properties, that help your body to complete its own natural detoxification processes?

Here are 19 foods to eat on a regular basis, which will support your body’s detoxification functions, and help detoxify your liver:

Apples
