5 foods that cleanse

Help your body conduct a little spring-cleaning by eating certain foods that facilitate the detoxification process. Incorporate these fruits and vegetables into your diet to support liver function and your digestive system as a whole.

Avocados

Avocados contain a nutrient called glutathione, which blocks the absorption of certain fats that cause oxidative damage, helping the liver to cleanse and eliminate.

Lemons

Lemons are rich in vitamin C, which helps synthesize toxic materials so they can be absorbed by water. Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to your water to reap the benefits.

Pineapple

Pineapples contains bromelain, a powerful digestive enzyme that helps to digest protein, break down fats and reduce inflammation.

Apples

Apples are high in pectin, a type of fiber that attracts molecules, such as cholesterol and heavy metals, and binds to them. These bad molecules then can be eliminated, helping to cleanse the intestines of toxic buildup.

Cabbage

Cabbage is a natural diuretic that activates enzymes in the liver to help flush out toxins. This crucifer also cleanses the digestive tract and neutralizes some of the damaging compounds found in cigarette smoke.
