Why it’s good for detoxification
Eggs provide choline, supporting normal liver function and fat metabolism.
Watercress belongs to the cruciferous vegetable family and contains glucosinolate-derived compounds.
Garlic and onion provide sulphur-containing compounds relevant to normal liver enzyme activity.
Celeriac and chickpea flour add fibre, helping support normal digestive elimination.
