Dr. Cabot's Eight-Week Diet
-
Dr. Sandra Cabot focuses her diet on eating plentiful raw vegetables and fruits. Eat various foods that contain vitamin K, antioxidants, fatty acids and sulphur compounds for liver health. She recommends eating a wide variety of whole grains and beans, which are very beneficial to the liver. Eat only natural and organic food if possible. Dr. Cabot stresses that if you cannot afford/find organic food it will not ruin the diet, so do not become discouraged. Keep desserts and sugars down to an extreme minimum, but an occasional treat will help you stay motivated. As with any diet, it is essential to remain hydrated and consume a lot of water to flush toxins from the liver. Dr. Cabot's eight-week diet incorporates eating meals that follow these guidelines, which will result in a healthier, cleansed liver.
