1 WALNUTS are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and the antioxidant glutathione, both support liver health.
2 WATER (eight to 10 glasses daily) will flush the liver and kidneys—squeeze in some lemon for extra cleansing.
3 PAPAYA, melons and berries pack antioxidants and flavonoids to heal and cleanse.
4 BROCCOLI, cauliflower, cabbage and brussels sprouts, rich in sulfur compounds, aid liver detoxing.
5 EGGS, high in protein and vitamin B, detox, too. Other healthy protein sources include fish, chicken and tofu.
6 BEETS, carrots, tomatoes and dark, leafy greens carry antioxidants and flavonoids.
