In the summer, when the weather is hot, many people turn to cooling drinks such as pennywort, cogon root, guava buds, and wormwood to cool and detoxify the liver. Although they are benign and beneficial to health, experts warn that if used indiscriminately and unscientifically, they can "bring disaster" to the liver.
Abuse of cooling and liver-cooling water – Be careful of “inviting trouble”
In hot summer, many people often make their own cooling drinks from cooling foods such as pennywort, black beans, roasted brown rice, cogon grass roots, guava leaves, etc. to detoxify the liver.
According to Associate Professor, Doctor Nguyen Thi Hang - Former Deputy Director of Tue Tinh Hospital, Academy of Traditional Medicine: The above mentioned heat-clearing drinks have been passed down by word of mouth and used by the people for generations. According to Traditional Medicine, these herbs are cooling, help to clear heat, diuretic, and are often used to prevent and eliminate the condition of "heat accumulation" in the body. However, they only stop at the effect of cooling, diuretic and do not have much impact on the liver - the organ that performs the main detoxification task of the body. Meanwhile, many people think that the more they drink, the cooler and cleaner the liver is, so they abuse it, even replacing daily drinking water, causing "more harm than good".
The case of Ms. Le Thi Mo (Ha Dong, Hanoi) is a typical example: “In hot weather, people always feel thirsty, hot inside, rash , itchy, so I boiled pennywort and black bean water to drink to detoxify the liver. At first, drinking this water made me feel comfortable, but after drinking it continuously for nearly 3 weeks, I had bloating, indigestion, and sometimes stomachaches and diarrhea for no apparent reason. When asked, I found out that it was because I drank too much cooling water.”
According to Dr. Hang, in addition to digestive problems like Ms. Mo, cases of abusing cooling water can also cause electrolyte imbalance, increased excretion of active substances, poor absorption of some micronutrients such as calcium, potassium, etc. In particular, if used daily, it also causes excessive liver lubrication, the liver secretes a lot of fluid while the body does not need it, which will cause liver and health problems.
In addition, if you use foods as cooling drinks of unknown origin, containing pesticide residues or sulfur (anti-mold agent), it can be toxic to the liver.
Therefore, using heat-clearing drinks arbitrarily and unscientifically will not only not detoxify the liver but can also cause dangers to your liver and health.
What is a safe and effective solution to cool down and detoxify the liver?
The liver is the main organ responsible for metabolizing and eliminating toxins. Most harmful agents such as alcohol, environmental pollution, drugs, “dirty” food, chemicals, etc. pass through the liver. The liver is responsible for converting toxins into less toxic or non-toxic substances and then eliminating them through feces and urine. Therefore, drinking cooling and diuretic drinks also helps to eliminate toxins more easily. However, detoxification still belongs to the liver.
Therefore, experts recommend that everyone should proactively protect the liver by limiting exposure to toxic factors, while supplementing with clinically proven herbs that enhance liver function and detoxify the liver to protect the liver from the root.
