Want a healthier metabolism? Detox your liver — here’s how

The end of the ‘silly season’ signals the start of a new one: ‘detox season’. Your liver is one of the hardest working organs in your body and is responsible for your metabolism as well as your immune, digestive and detoxification systems.


There are lots of reasons why it may be a good idea to do a liver detox, like:


  • Diets high in saturated and processed fats and carbs

  • Alcohol and prescription medications

  • Lack of sleep and proper rest

  • Over-exercising

 

Here’s a recipe for our ultimate liver detox juice you can make at home.


  • 1 beet

  • 1 carrot

  • 1 lemon, peeled

  • 1 handful parsley

 

Instructions: Run all ingredients through a juicer and enjoy.
