Mindsip insights from this episode:
Understand fat storage as a protective mechanism against toxins
Your body isn't storing fat because you ate too much; it's storing fat to protect you from poison.
Recognize signs of sluggish bile flow for better digestion
Clear warning signs of poor bile flow include feeling heavy and bloated after fatty foods, fat in your stool, and a dull ache under your right ribs.
Utilize bile to break down fats and prevent body fat storage
Think of bile as your body's dish soap for fats, breaking them up so your body can use them instead of storing them as body fat.
Support liver detox with glutathione, glycine, and calcium D-glucarate
Support all phases of liver detox with three specific supplements: Glutathione, Glycine, and calcium D-glucarate.
Eliminate seed oils and synthetic fragrances to support liver detox
Seed oils and synthetic fragrances are two of the most common things that overwhelm your liver's detox capacity and keep you storing fat.
Incorporate cauliflower to neutralize excess estrogen
Vegetables like cauliflower and Brussels sprouts contain special compounds called glucosinolates that help neutralize and eliminate excess estrogen from your body.
Support liver health to regulate hormones and boost energy
When your liver is overloaded, old hormones like estrogen and cortisol pile up, sending signals to store fat, lower your energy, and affect your mood.
Incorporate bitter foods to stimulate bile production
You can get your bile moving again with bitter foods like dandelion greens, arugula, and radicchio, which naturally stimulate your gallbladder to contract.
