Water Plant Cures Liver Disease!?(Wow!)

Your liver is under attack.
And that’s bad news for your health.
Because it’s the largest organ in your body and it filters out the toxins that can make you sick.
But our carb-rich, sugar-loaded diets are pushing our livers to the brink.
Currently, 80 million Americans suffer from liver disease. And that number is on the rise.
But you don’t have to the next victim.
Because there’s a strange plant from the Far East that can keep your liver healthy and protected.
I’m talking about an ancient, time-honored Asian remedy called the lotus plant.
Most people haven’t heard of Lotus plant or Nelumbro nucifera, but it’s a well-known food and medicine used throughout Asia.
Whether it’s made into a tea or consumed whole, the Lotus plant is popular in both Chinese and Japanese diets.
However, the seeds are the most miraculous part of the plant.
They’ve been used for hundreds of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine to help soothe digestive issues, support the kidneys, and nourish the blood.
But now modern scientists are intrigued by their ability to heal your liver.
In fact, a study published in the American Journal of Chinese Medicine found that lotus seed extract REDUCED the type of inflammation that causes liver disease.
The scientists tested Lotus seeds by using a bacteria called a lipopolysaccharide, well known for accelerating liver inflammation.
Then they used an extract purified from Lotus seeds called epigallocatechin, or EGCC.
EGCC is also the main antioxidant found in green tea, and is what makes it so good for you.
Antioxidants help fight free radicals, which cause cell damage, aging, and more issues.
And when the EGCC began to interact with the liver cells, it BANISHED the inflammation!
But these aren’t the only benefits scientists have found. Lotus seeds can also help lower blood sugar, improve sleep, strengthen your immune system, and so much more.
Try adding them to your diet. You can find them at your local health food store.
