Impact recipe! Beetroot juice to cleanse the liver at home

“We are what we eat” - Hippocrates.

Is everyone familiar with this phrase?

I think everyone knows this cool expression. And the trouble is that, for the most part, because of what we eat, our body’s main filter, the liver, suffers.

But the joy is that this organ can be restored. But how to do this simply, how to cleanse the liver at home, how to help it?

Let's talk about everything in order...

In general, it’s sad when we begin to suffer from excess weight, diabetes, cancer just because of nutrition and we don’t know it ourselves! ... (“People die from ignorance” - it’s even written in the Bible) ...

Therefore, I invite you to know a lot more about yourself today...

The liver is, of course, the main filter of our body. Just look at that list of features below. Peoples' Friendship University of Russia made an excellent list:

metabolic (regulates the metabolism of proteins and amino acids, lipids, carbohydrates and biologically active substances (hormones, vitamins), microelements. The liver is involved in the regulation of water metabolism).
depositing (accumulation of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, hormones, vitamins and minerals occurs in the liver).
secretory (formation of bile, which is an important way of removing a number of substances converted in the liver from the plasma and is involved in digestion by emulsifying fats).
detoxification (biological filter of the liver - hepatic macrophages - Kupffer cells forming slightly toxic ester-sulfuric acids, which are then excreted into the intestines)
excretory (toxic compounds indole, skatole, tyramine combine in the liver with sulfuric and glucuronic acids)
homeostatic (the liver is involved in the regulation of metabolic, antigenic homeostasis of the body).

This is a real housewife in our body! It seems to me that since she looks after us so much, then we are obliged to look after her in the same way.

Signs of liver blockage and possible consequences

The human liver pumps blood through itself and cleanses it of harmful substances that enter the body from outside. In parallel, this organ produces an important digestive enzyme - bile. A normally functioning liver produces 1-1.5 liters of bile per day, which enters the duodenum and is involved in digestion.

An unhealthy lifestyle, “wrong” food, and a polluted environment lead to disruption of bile production. A deficiency or impaired outflow of this enzyme leads to increased stress on the liver. Clogging of an organ with toxins leads to disruption of its functioning, which subsequently affects the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and the entire body.

The first signs that the liver needs cleansing are heaviness in the right side . Such sensations appear when the bile ducts are blocked. In addition, spider veins, age spots, and itching appear on the skin. An additional symptom is constant nausea and belching. A characteristic symptom of liver and gallbladder dysfunction is the appearance of a bitter taste in the mouth.

Ineffective liver function affects your overall well-being. A person experiences yellowing of the skin and eyeballs, frequent headaches, constipation, a feeling of bloating and seething in the intestines. The presence of 3-4 of these signs is a signal of the need for liver cleansing.

Important! Ignoring signs of liver blockage leads to intoxication of the body. Poor functioning of the gastrointestinal tract leads to blockage of blood vessels with cholesterol plaques, accumulation of bile in the liver and bile ducts.

Benefits of beets for the liver

Red beets are a storehouse of vitamins, minerals and fiber, and therefore can have a beneficial effect on many organs. The high iron content in vegetables helps prevent anemia. Vitamins and microelements help improve immunity. Beets are especially useful for normalizing the functioning of the liver, gall bladder and intestines:

Fiber and organo-acids stimulate intestinal peristalsis, so cleansing the body with red beets begins with the intestines.
Pectins adsorb and remove toxins from the intestines.
Fiber helps food pass through the intestines;
Betaine normalizes the process of protein breakdown, which promotes their rapid absorption. Doctors recommend combining meat with red beets on the menu for better protein digestion.
Bioflavonoids relax the walls of the bile ducts, which helps cleanse them.
Freshly squeezed beet juice has an antioxidant effect on liver cells and, if taken in accordance with the rules, can dissolve stones formed in it.

Scientists have no doubt about the healing properties of beets. Therefore, medicines have been created based on this vegetable. But no medicine can compare with a natural product, which is absorbed and acts on the body much better than chemicals.

Properties of beet juice

The healing properties of the vegetable were known back in the era of Hippocrates and were widely used in the treatment of anemia, hyperthermia, infectious diseases and pathologies of the digestive tract. The maximum therapeutic effect can be obtained by using a dark burgundy vegetable, cylindrical in shape and without whitish veins.

100 g of juice contains 60 calories, as well as a huge amount of useful elements:

vitamins A, C, E, group B, PP (nicotinic acid);
glucose;
acetylcholine, necessary for conducting impulses along nerve fibers;
oxalic, malic acids;
minerals (potassium, magnesium);
sucrose;
fructose;

Thanks to its complex composition, the vegetable has a positive effect on many body systems and gives vitality to a person. Rarely found cobalt is needed for the synthesis of vitamin B12 by intestinal microflora, which is necessary for the nervous system and, together with PP, is involved in the formation of new red blood cells.

Beetroot juice contains fiber and pectin, which has a destructive effect on pathogenic bacteria in the intestines, and also accelerates the removal of toxins from the body. In addition, they are involved in the formation of glycogen, which is stored in the liver as an energy reserve.

Thus, fresh beet juice:

promotes erythropoiesis, that is, the formation of red blood cells, thereby eliminating anemia;
cleanses the hepatobiliary tract (liver, bladder, bile ducts);
has an anti-inflammatory effect;
improves the functioning of the lymphatic system;
increases immune defense and resistance to infections;
promotes recovery after heavy physical labor;
improves metabolic processes;
gives freshness to the skin;
has a laxative, antispasmodic effect;
stimulates cellular regeneration;
lowers blood pressure. Beets contain natural nitrates, which are transformed into nitric oxide. The latter substance promotes the dilation of veins, as a result of which blood supply to the myocardium improves and blood pressure normalizes;
strengthens the vascular wall;
prevents stone formation in the biliary tract;
improves visual function;
promotes weight loss;
Beetroot juice for liver diseases helps cleanse the organ and normalize metabolism. This is ensured thanks to B4. In turn, betaine prevents the accumulation of lipids in hepatocytes (liver cells) and the development of steatosis;
improves memory and brain function by stimulating blood flow;
boron is important for the osteoarticular system;
accelerates the elimination of “bad” cholesterol, thereby preventing the formation of plaques on the walls of blood vessels and their atherosclerotic damage;
normalizes the psycho-emotional state due to the presence of lithium. The person becomes less irritable, internal fear and anxiety are suppressed, and stress resistance increases;
has antitumor and antioxidant effects.

As for boiled root vegetables, they are inferior to fresh ones in terms of the amount of vitamins that are destroyed under the influence of temperature. In beet tops, the content of some substances is several times higher, namely folic acid, iron, calcium, and phosphorus.

The leaves are widely used in the treatment of ulcerative lesions and inflammation of the mucous membrane of the digestive tract, which is provided by vitamin U, which has regenerative and analgesic properties.

Note that fresh beet juice can only be drunk two hours after preparation. This is necessary to evaporate harmful compounds and prevent poisoning.

Possible contraindications to the use of the technique

Natural products rarely cause harm to the human body, but for some diseases, cleansing the body with beets is contraindicated. The method is not recommended for use in the presence of the following pathologies:

hypotension – beets will further reduce the patient’s blood pressure;
increased stomach acidity – eating beets will increase the amount of acid;
diabetes mellitus - due to the increased sugar content in vegetables;
tendency to diarrhea - beets have a laxative effect;
Osteoporosis - the vegetable can interfere with the body's absorption of calcium.

Cleansing the liver with beets can be harmful during infectious diseases. Experts do not recommend using the method after severe stress, physical activity, during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Carefully! Before using any cleaning procedure, you must undergo an ultrasound. Cleaning is absolutely contraindicated if gallstones are found. Stimulating the outflow of bile will lead to blockage of the bile ducts!
