Lemon Ginger Tea

Lemons are rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, which stimulate the liver to produce detox enzymes. Ginger, on the other hand, is a powerful anti-inflammatory and aids the liver in flushing out toxins.

Directions: Squeeze the juice of one lemon and grate a thumb-sized piece of ginger. Add these to 250ml of warm water (around 40°C). Drink this first thing in the morning.

Note: Avoid using water that is too hot as it can reduce the nutritional value of the lemon juice.

Celery Juice

Celery contains apigenin and luteolin, which reduce inflammation and support liver detoxification. It also acts as a diuretic, reducing pressure on the kidneys.

Directions: Wash 3-4 stalks of celery and extract the juice. You can dilute it with 100ml of water. Drink this 15 minutes before breakfast.

Note: Those with low blood pressure should consult a doctor before consuming celery juice regularly.

Artichoke Tea

Artichoke tea is packed with cynarin and silymarin, two compounds that aid in liver cell regeneration and enhance detoxification. This tea also helps the kidneys filter waste more efficiently.

Directions: Boil 5-7 slices of dried (or fresh) artichoke with 500ml of water for 10 minutes. Let it cool down and drink it in the morning.

Note: You can add a drizzle of honey to make it more palatable, but avoid overdoing it with sugar.

Turmeric Ginger Water

Both turmeric and ginger possess strong anti-inflammatory properties, supporting the liver in toxin processing. Curcumin, found in turmeric, also protects the kidneys from oxidative damage.

Directions: Slice a small piece of ginger and a fresh turmeric root (or use 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder). Boil them with 300ml of water for 5 minutes. Strain the liquid, let it cool, and drink.

Note: Add a few drops of lemon juice to enhance curcumin absorption.

Cucumber Mint Detox Water

Cucumbers are packed with water and minerals, making them a natural diuretic that cleanses the kidneys. Mint stimulates digestion and supports the liver in its detoxification process.

Directions: Slice half a cucumber and add it to a jug with 5-6 mint leaves and 500ml of water. Refrigerate overnight and drink it in the morning.

Note: For added flavor, you can include a few slices of lemon or green apple.
