Menstrual Pain, How Is This Reduced By Optimal Liver Function? - Dr. Dae (VIDEO)

Dr. Dae describes how optimal liver function can reduce a woman's menstrual pain.

Dr. Dae:
Our liver is a tremendous organ, but it’s also responsible for conjugating our estrogens, which means manipulating them in a way that’s appropriate for what we need to use them for. And it also helps to put, once we have used them, put them into our digestive waste system, our bowel, so we can get rid of them through our bowel movements. And so, when our liver function is not operating appropriately, because it has to do so many things beyond just this one function of our menstrual cycle, then it also throws off that balance.

So it’s very important, again, plant-based foods, legumes, soy products can be really helpful for that. So, we really want to focus on artichoke, beets, things that are yellow, or things that are orange because they have beta-carotene, which is really important for that liver detoxification process as well. So, those are things that I look at.
