IMPROVE LIVER HEALTH
10. EGGS
Yolks are rich in choline, an essential nutrient to support liver health. Inadequate intake of choline is linked with fatty liver disease, which can lead to irreversible damage (cirrhosis) and liver cancer. Other good sources of choline include salmon, cauliflower and spinach.
11. BRAZIL NUTS
Just one or two Brazil nuts provide more than your daily dose of selenium, a trace element that’s crucial for liver health. A 2016 study involving 477,000 adults
found that those with the highest selenium levels were five to 10 times less likely to get liver cancer than those with the lowest levels. Too much selenium can be toxic, however, so snack on just one or two nuts.
12. BRUSSELS SPROUTS
This cruciferous vegetable is a good source of sulforaphane, which may help to protect against the development of fatty liver and liver cancer. Researchers from the University of Illinois say broccoli and cauliflower may have the same effect, and recommend three to five servings a week.
