The health of your liver and gut plays a key role in your overall health. Nutrition is essential to maintaining a healthy liver and gut, even if lifestyle adjustments are also crucial. Additionally, you can reap these advantages by beginning your day with healthful meals.

The three foods that can help your gut and liver health were identified by gastroenterologist Dr. Joseph Salhab in a video posted on April 2. As a gastroenterologist, here are three things I eat every morning to maintain the health of my liver and intestines, he said in the video. In addition, he discussed the dietary benefits of these three foods and how they might support your liver and stomach. Let's discover what they are:

1. Berries

Berries like blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries are superfoods for your gut and liver. According to the gastroenterologist, he either eats them fresh or freeze-dried when he is on the go.

“Blueberries specifically have a ton of antioxidants. They contain a compound called pterostilbene, which is a very potent antioxidant, especially for the liver, and has been shown to have anti-ageing and anti-cancerous properties,” he explained.

2. Mixed nuts 

The gastroenterologist shared that he mixes berries with mixed nuts and eats about a handful every morning. He consumes walnuts, pecans, almonds, cashews, pistachios, and macadamia nuts. He added that people who eat more nuts usually have ‘better cognitive health, a lower risk of dementia, and a lower risk of colon cancer’.

3. Black coffee

Lastly, Dr Salhab drinks black coffee every morning. “I use a light roast because a light roast keeps the nutrients intact better than a dark roast,” he shared. 

According to the expert, black coffee has been shown to help with cognitive health, cardiovascular health, and liver health, especially in fatty liver disease. “It also decreases your risk of liver cancer,” he added.
