Top 12 foods that clean your blood naturally

Coming into the top 3, scrub your system clean with Number 3. “Apples”.

Apples are rich in polyphenols, or beneficial plant compounds, which activate a process called autophagy: the cleaning out of damaged cells in order to regenerate newer, healthier cells.

In other words, apple polyphenols “scrub away” the unwanted waste in the tissues and blood.

Additionally, apples are rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber, which can help to lower fat and cholesterol levels in the blood.

Also, the highest concentrations of antioxidants are found in the skin, so you will want to enjoy apples without peeling them.

Next, normalize your blood pressure with Number 2 “Cruciferous Vegetables”.

Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, kale, and mustard greens are perfect for nourishing the kidneys and liver due to their high content of sulfur-containing compounds called glucosinolates.

Glucosinolates help protect the liver and kidneys from damage caused by free radicals and toxins.

Additionally, cruciferous vegetables contain indole, a natural compound that has been found to combat fatty liver disease.

Arugula or rocket deserves special mention, as both a leafy green and a cruciferous vegetable.

Arugula is not only rich in toxin-cleansing chlorophyll but also in natural nitrates that, when consumed, are converted into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide dilates the blood vessels, easing blood pressure and protecting the kidneys.

You can use arugula in salads, sandwiches, pasta dishes, sauces, and more.

And at Number 1, we have a blood-purifying superfruit, “Blueberries”.

When it comes to reducing liver and kidney inflammation, blueberries are arguably the best fruit you can eat.

This is because wild blueberries have the highest concentration of anthocyanins, antioxidants that counteract oxidative stress and reduce liver inflammation.

Studies have shown that blueberries can help to reduce liver fat and improve blood sugar and blood pressure.

Furthermore, their high levels of fiber confer cleansing and cholesterol-lowering effects, while their high water content helps with hydration.

For maximum benefit, eat fresh or frozen organic blueberries.

Other than blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, cranberries, currants, and strawberries are all excellent sources of anthocyanins—the deeper and richer the color the better!

Other important ways to ease the toxic burden on your liver and kidneys are drinking lots of water, getting regular exercise and adequate sleep, and eating an anti-inflammatory diet that includes detoxifying foods.
