These 4 Juices Can Help Reduce Bloating, Brain Fog & Support Liver Detoxification

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's always best to consult your doctor about your specific plan of action. However, looking at what you eat can be a good place to start—here are three juice recipes that can help you get the nutrients you need.

Bloating is a real problem for many people and can be extremely uncomfortable. The ingredients in this juice can really help. Pineapple has helpful digestive enzymes, but the secret to this juice is the fennel and ginger. They combine to build up good prebiotic bacteria, which help the gut deal with food more efficiently and therefore can help reduce the bloating.

Method: Pass all the ingredients through the juicer.

Rosemary is well-known for aiding memory and concentration. The sage can also help balance the hormones, especially for those at the start of menopause, as it can reduce hot flashes. The combination of these herbs can help reduce brain fog and improve focus, while the other healthy ingredients add beneficial nutrients.

Method: Pass all the ingredients through the juicer, wrapping the rosemary and thyme in the sage leaves (otherwise they will get lost in the juicer).

This juice is amazingly nutrient dense. It is a powerhouse of sulfur-containing vegetables that have antioxidant properties, all geared up to assist the liver and the production of glutathione, which is one of the most essential antioxidants in the body.

Method: Pass all the ingredients through the juicer, except the lemon juice, stirring it in at the end.

This juice is great for the morning. The lemon gets the liver going, helping to produce digestive juices that can support your body's detoxification. Turmeric is good for gut health, but it is the curcumin found in turmeric that is the key to this recipe—helping to mop up any residues left by alcohol.
