Consume alimentos que estimulen al hígado a producir y descargar bilis, tales como:
- Ajenjo
- Diente de león
- Menta
- Rábano
- Alcachofa
- Cardo mariano
- Cebolla
Estos alimentos te ayudarán a aliviar el estreñimiento.
La descarga periódica de bilis en sí misma ayuda a digerir los alimentos. Cuantos menos alimentos sin digerir lleguen al colon menor será el efecto inflamatorio que producen al desequilibrar la flora.
