Tips for a Healthy Spring Diet

Follow these tips for a healthy spring diet that supports your liver.

• Keep meals light. Overeating taxes your liver.  Play around with intermittent fast by starting the the 12 hours on / 12 hours off tactic.  Try to only eat during 12 hours in the day.  
• Eat greens.  Sprouts, wheatgrass, spinach, kale and dandelions are particularly good foods in the spring.
• Drink milk thistle or nettle tea.  These teas detox and supports your liver.
• Season your food.  Pungent spices like basil, fennel, marjoram, rosemary, caraway, dill and bay leaf are excellent for spring cooking—and they taste good.

By keeping your wood element balanced and your liver healthy, you’ll feel vital, flexible and clear.
