Detoxing your own body is fast becoming a new trend for all including the fitness freaks. People who consume detox drinks daily as part of their fitness routine can’t help but talk about their natural health benefits. Eating junk food and drinking too much alcohol makes the liver overworked. It becomes difficult for the liver to cleanse the blood. This also affects digestion and fat metabolism.
It is important to detoxify our liver. Here is a list of drinks that you can make at home for detoxification of the liver.
Mint tea
