If you are trying to lose weight but can't seem to do it, what you may need is not a crazy diet, but an urgent detox. The liver helps you remove toxins, improve digestion, and absorb essential vitamins and minerals, but it also regulates blood glucose, insulin, and even helps regulate estrogen and testosterone in the body. All of this helps your body process food correctly so you can lose weight. Our friends from ActitudFem share all the necessary tips to stick to your diet and improve your quality of life.

If you feel that your liver might be in trouble, consult a doctor first for tests, but if you just want to give your body a little help, detoxify with these recommendations:

1. Eliminate unnecessary medications

Replace everything you can with natural remedies (like yoga instead of aspirin). If you have been taking a medication for a long time, talk to your doctor to see if you can stop or reduce it. Medicine is one of the things that affects this organ the most.

2. Quit smoking or smoke less

Even if it’s just for a few weeks, give your body a break by stopping smoking.

3. Eliminate hydrogenated oils from your diet

For at least two weeks, pay attention to the contents of your food and avoid these harmful oils.

4. Eliminate anything with artificial coloring

Want to eat clean? The easiest way to do it is to stop buying anything with dye. This includes cookies, cereals, and many canned foods. Do it for at least two weeks, and you will feel much better. Generally, anything without dye also does not include many other harmful ingredients for your liver.

5. Cut out salt

Although it may be difficult at first, forget about the salt shaker. Season your food with garlic or rosemary, which are good for your liver. With these tips and drinking enough water (without salts), you will give your liver a break so it can function properly when you try to lose weight. Don’t get stuck! Reaching your goal is possible.
