Cleansing Alkaline Food #3: Kale
By Energise Ross
Kale is a green leafy vegetable, and is a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. This helps to naturally detoxify your body whilst keeping you feeling healthy.
[Big word warning ahead] This is due to the fact that the isothiocyanates made from the kale’s glucosinolates have been shown to control detox activities within the cells of the body.
Kale is also rich in vitamins, including vitamin A, vitamin K and vitamin B6. I love to recommend kale whilst cleansing, because it helps to reduce your overall cholesterol levels. It is also wonderful to eat after cleansing, as it helps to rebuild your body with new material.
Kale is also high in vitamin k, vitamin a and vitamin c and being leafy green it also has huge chlorophyll content.
Remember, when you’re cleansing it’s especially important to cleanse the blood – so getting a big boost of chlorophyll is always fantastic.
