Toast to a Healthy Liver this Chinese New Year!
29 January, 2024
Are you ready for a ride into the Year of Dragon? Chinese New Year is knocking at your door, so get ready to embark on a journey of celebration where all the family, friends, and relatives gather and savor the delectable dishes and drinks served during this most significant annual occasion.
Sharing stories, laughing, and drinking might sound fun. But too much alcohol can take a toll on your liver, the unsung hero of our body. The liver is vital for detoxification. It works hard to get rid of the harmful substances from our bodies. Still, after over-eating & drinking during CNY, it can get overwhelming, slowing down metabolism and allowing fats and toxins to accumulate.
It is when the superhero – milk thistle comes to the rescue. When our liver is busy cleaning up, it generates things called free radicals, and to keep the balance, antioxidants are essential. Milk thistle contains powerful antioxidants – Silymarin to shield our liver from harm; it defends the liver against free radical damage and inflammation.
If you are already developing a fatty liver, the essential phospholipid is the critical ingredient that is crucial to reverse fatty liver. Liver cells comprise bilayers of phospholipids, of which phosphatidylcholine is the most abundant type among all the phospholipids. Phosphatidylcholine serves as the primary building block for maintaining the structure and function of the liver cell membrane. Thus, it is necessary to help regenerate healthy liver cells and improve the fatty liver condition.
Which supplement can you incorporate into your routine? Let’s meet the liver tonic – BiO-LiFE Livasil and Livolin Forte.
Livasil is a high-strength milk thistle extract (500mg), traditionally used as a liver tonic to improve liver function. Loaded with silybin, the active substance in milk thistle extract acts as an antioxidant, preventing free radicals from attacking the liver, reducing liver inflammation, and facilitating liver detoxification. It helps your liver cope with the extra load from the Chinese New Year feasts.
Livolin Forte supplies essential phospholipids (phosphatidylcholine), B vitamins, and Vitamin E to help repair and regenerate liver cells and reverse fatty liver conditions. Phosphatidylcholine acts as the fundamental building block for the liver cell membrane. Consequently, replenishing phosphatidylcholine in cases of fatty liver issues helps regenerate liver cells, ultimately reversing the condition. As you gear up for the Year of the Dragon celebrations, show your liver some love and keep it healthy during the festivities. Watch out for your alcohol intake and deep-fried oily food, drink sufficient water, boost your fiber intake, stay active, and consider incorporating a liver tonic. Here’s to a Chinese New Year brimming with health and prosperity!
