Description

Your liver helps digest food, stores energy, plays an important role in blood sugar metabolism, and performs hundreds of other vital functions… and yet, we don’t pay much attention to this hardworking organ until something goes wrong. In this episode, JJ shares 9 simple, effective ways to optimize liver health. You’ll learn the big culprit behind nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and what you can do to support a healthy liver, foods that are good for your liver, the right tests to measure liver health, liver-supporting benefits of oats, and JJ’s favorite liver-supportive non-starchy veggie. Plus, you’ll learn how leafy greens can boost antioxidants, the surprising fruit that helps neutralize toxins, the best supplements to support liver health, the benefits of coffee and green tea for your liver, and the meal-timing strategy that one study shows may help reduce your risk of liver problems. These strategies give you everything you need to give your liver the love it deserves!
