Liver Cleansing Foods

The liver is a very important organ.  Its main job is to filter the blood from the digestive tract before passing it to the rest of the body.  The liver also detoxifies chemicals and metabolizes drugs.  The liver secrets bile that ends up back in the intestines. 

There's a lot we can do to help cleanse the liver and avoid any difficulty.
Here's a list of foods that can help cleanse the liver.

Broccoli
Walnuts
Lemons
Avocado
Garlic
Beets
Leafy green vegetables

The 7 Don'ts After A Meal

An interesting read I received and want to share.

1     Don't smoke - Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of   cancer is higher).      
                                                                                  
2    Don't eat fruits immediately - Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause the stomach to be bloated with air.  Therefore take fruit 1-2 hours after meals or 1 hour before meal.      

                                    
3  
  Don't drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid,  this substance will cause the protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.  
  
4     Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted and blocked.              

                                
5    Don't bathe - Bathing will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs and body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease.  This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.

                                                                                                                                              
6    Don't walk about - People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99.  In actual fact this is not true.  Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.                   

                                                                                                         
7    Don't sleep immediately - The food we intake will not be able to digest properly.  Thus will lead to gastric and infection in our intestine.
