Liver damage is a condition where the liver stops functioning properly and results in a range of symptoms, including nausea, jaundice, etc. Conditions such as fatty liver are caused by an increase in excess fat or toxins in the liver. Moreover, impaired liver function can also lead to swelling of the abdomen and even minor scratches that can lead to bleeding.
Therefore, it’s crucial to take the right care before complications worsen. Yog guru Baba Ramdev has suggested some effective ayurvedic remedies that can cleanse as well as alleviate liver problems. He explains that consuming certain medicinal leaves can promote liver health. Grinding gokharu, coriander leaves, peepal, neem, and kasni leaves and drinking their juice can effectively cleanse the liver. These leaves detoxify the body and help in the proper functioning of organs such as the kidneys.
Benefits of drinking Gourd juice
Drinking gourd juice also helps cleanse the liver. Baba Ramdev recommends drinking gourd juice and eating the vegetable regularly to remove any impurities from the liver. Avoid adding any spices to the gourd curry and consume it plain.
