Welcome to Week One – a gentle reset.
This week, we’re softly supporting the liver, your body’s natural detox hub, by adding in foods that help it process and release what it no longer needs. Think: beets, greens, cruciferous veggies, lemon, herbs, and fiber-rich whole foods.

It’s about nourishment. By fueling the liver and gut with the right foods, we’re also supporting hormone balance and a healthy gut helps break down and eliminate excess hormones like estrogen, which can ease bloating, mood swings, and other wonky side-effects.

  • The liver is the body's primary detox organ, responsible for filtering toxins and waste from the bloodstream. During summer, people often indulge in more outdoor activities, social events, and barbecues, which can lead to increased consumption of processed foods, alcohol, and sugary treats. Supporting the liver with nutrient-rich foods helps it function optimally, aiding in the detoxification process.

    A healthy liver enhances metabolic functions, which can boost energy levels. Summer activities can be physically demanding, and maintaining high energy levels is essential for enjoying outdoor activities, sports, and travel.

    The liver plays a role in metabolizing fats and proteins, processes that generate internal heat. Consuming liver-supportive foods, particularly those with high water content and cooling properties (like fresh herbs, vegetables, and fruits), helps maintain hydration and keeps the body cool during hot summer months.

    Summer diets often include a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, which can sometimes be hard to digest. The liver produces bile, essential for breaking down fats and aiding digestion. By focusing on liver health, you can improve digestive efficiency and comfort.
