Have you ever got up one morning with dark circles under your eyes, bad breath, and a swollen abdomen? It’s important to know that these all-too-common symptoms can be linked to an intoxicated liver, and that’s what we’ll talk about in this article next.
It is clear that any discomfort is a symptom of some underlying problem that is not necessarily serious. However, one thing we should never do is resort to self-medication.
First, we will strive to take care of ourselves a little more, improving our lifestyle and eating habits. If we notice that these annoyances are going on for too long a period of time, we shouldn’t hesitate to consult a doctor.
The Effects of a Slow-Working Intoxicated Liver
There are times when we commit one or another excess: we eat excessively high-fat foods, few fruits and vegetables, drink little water, and we lead a sedentary life or with an exaggeratedly high stress level.
All of this causes small imbalances in our body, which are shown on our outside through dark circles, bad breath, as well as a swelling abdomen.
What can cause liver poisoning?
- We spend a few weeks eating incorrectly and soon realize that we are suffering from an episode of constipation.
- This inadequate diet causes our bloodstream to fill with toxins, dead cells and waste elements that eventually end up in the liver, which synthesizes and purifies our blood.
- This accumulation causes the liver to become saturated and unable to perform its functions normally.
- A slow-functioning liver cannot produce the normal, necessary amount of bile.
- If there is not enough bile, digestion does not take place properly, fats cannot be destroyed and nutrients are not properly absorbed by the intestine.
- Thus, poor digestion causes discomfort and abdominal bloating.
- A liver that does not work well gives its first signs of tiredness and dark circles under the eyes, in addition, it causes a change in the color of our skin.

This type of problem can be specific. In other words, we’ve all gone through times of general malaise, of seeing the uncomfortable dark circles under our eyes and dealing with this uncomfortable taste in our good mornings.
If it is something sporadic, we can resolve the situation by improving our lifestyle and eating habits, but even so, do not hesitate to consult a doctor if you notice that it is something recurrent, and if you always experience the same symptoms over time.
Dark circles, bad breath and swollen abdomen… How can we solve it?

Lemon and artichoke medicine
The first thing to do is to cleanse the intoxicated liver and encourage the proper functioning of our digestion. In order to detoxify the liver, for 10 days we will take this simple remedy made with artichoke water and lemon. Take note.
Ingredients
- 2 artichokes
- 1 liter of water
- 1 lemon
How to prepare
It’s very simple. It is a question of cooking the two artichokes until they are very soft. Right after that, we’ll just keep the water used in cooking.
Once it’s not so hot, add the juice of a lemon. Then pour the entire contents into a glass bottle. We’ll be drinking throughout the day. The first cup on an empty stomach in the morning, and the rest before main meals.
Salad to improve the functioning of an intoxicated liver
It would be very fitting that, every day or every other day, you prepare this salad rich in bitter vegetables and nutrients that the liver needs to regenerate.
Ingredients
- 100g red cabbage
- One cup of finely chopped cabbage (80 g)
- 1 small grated carrot
- 1 cup spinach leaves (30 g)
- 3 nuts
- 1/2 avocado
- A handful of chopped parsley
- 8 raisins
- a little fennel
- 1/2 pear cut into pieces
- the juice of a lemon
- 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil (25 g)
How to prepare
What interests us, first of all, is consuming these raw foods. In other words, do not cook carrots or spinach. Just wash them well. The only step is to cut the vegetables, pear and avocado into very small pieces and season with the juice of half a lemon and a spoonful of extra virgin olive oil.
It’s delicious. Be sure to try it!
A ginger infusion every afternoon

This tea goes very well. Taking a ginger infusion after eating will improve our digestion process as well as help us clear out toxins.
Ginger root contains monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes and gingerol, potent antioxidants that help the intoxicated liver do its job.
In addition, ginger allows us to stimulate the transformation of cholesterol into bile acid. That way we can reduce the level of bad cholesterol, or LDL, and improve our digestion.
Do not hesitate, therefore, to have a cup of this medicinal infusion every afternoon. If you pay attention to your diet, avoid high-fat dishes, increase your consumption of fresh vegetables and water, you will undoubtedly be able to avoid bothersome dark circles, bad breath and bloated abdomen.
