Liver-nourishing tea suitable for long-term consumption
I am 30 years old this year, and have recently been feeling very fatigued, accompanied by symptoms of dizziness and blurred vision. After visiting the hospital for a checkup, the doctor told me that my liver is not functioning well. May I ask, what types of liver-nourishing teas are suitable for long-term consumption?
Doctor's answer (1)
Long-term consumption of liver-nourishing tea can help improve liver function and promote liver health. Common types of liver-nourishing tea include:
1. Honeysuckle tea, which has the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, cooling the blood, and stopping bleeding. Drinking one to two cups daily can help reduce liver inflammation and internal heat.
2. Lycium (goji) berry tea, which nourishes the liver and kidneys and improves vision. Drinking one to two cups daily is beneficial for liver health.
3. Chrysanthemum tea, which clears heat and toxins and calms the liver to improve vision. It is especially suitable for individuals with excessive liver fire.
4. Green tea, which contains abundant antioxidants and helps reduce oxidative damage to the liver. Drinking one to three cups daily provides good protection for the liver.
Long-term, moderate consumption of liver-nourishing tea can serve as an auxiliary measure in the prevention of liver diseases such as hepatitis, fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis. It can also help regulate blood lipids, improve sleep quality, and enhance immunity. Although liver-nourishing tea has positive effects on liver health, it cannot replace medical treatment. Patients with existing liver conditions should choose appropriate dietary and treatment methods under the guidance of a physician.
