FuzzyFlare+FollowMy Surprising Liver Reset RoutineLast year, I felt sluggish and realized my liver needed some TLC. After a bunch of trial and error, here’s what actually made a difference for me: 💡 Cut back on alcohol—seriously, my energy shot up after just a few weeks. ✅ Hydrate like crazy. I keep a water bottle with lemon on my desk—tastes good and helps my liver do its thing. 🔔 Add greens and garlic to meals. Spinach, beets, and a little extra garlic (even if my breath pays the price) made me feel lighter. ⚠️ Watch the processed foods and bad fats. Swapping out fast food for homemade smoothies and walnuts was a game changer. Small tweaks, big results. Always check with your doc before making big changes! #LiverHealth #WellnessJourney #HealthyHabits #Health #Wellness20Share
