In this video, we’re going to talk about how cruciferous vegetables detoxify the body.

Cruciferous vegetables are able to help the liver detoxify by supporting phase 1 and 2 enzymatic biotransformations.

This means your body has the ability to dismantle poisons into harmless water-soluble particles.

However, constant exposure to poisons, chemicals, endocrine disruptors causes phase I to speed up, overwhelming phase II enzymes. In turn, this can cause you to experience the symptoms of having a buildup of toxic substances.

Every day, we’re exposed to countless toxic chemicals, including…
• Pesticides
• Herbicides
• Fungicides
• GMO foods
• Plastics
• Cleaning chemicals
• Cosmetics
• Tap water chemicals
And the list goes on and on.

Many of these toxins act like estrogen in your body.

Cruciferous vegetables—and a concentrated cruciferous vegetable phytochemical known as DIM—promotes healthy phase I detoxification and balances phase II detoxification. This allows your body to, once again, detoxify normally. The enzymes involved are called cytochrome P450.

The best cruciferous vegetables to add to your diet are:
• Kale
• Arugula
• Bok Choy
• Brussels Sprouts
• Cabbage
• Cauliflower
• Collard Greens
• Radish

My Whole Cruciferous Food and Estrogen Balance (With DIM) products are incredible for promoting normal and healthy phase 1 and phase 2 detoxification.

I was taking DIM and started feeling a lump in my throat and bloating. DIM helps to lower estrogen. Estrogen blocks the thyroid hormones. Zinc helped to stop this from happening. Added selenium and now I'm feeling great.

I feel like the student in the front row of the Indiana Jones movie. She is watching Indiana and blinking her eyes...her lids say "I love you." Dr. Berg is wonderful...such a gentle delivery of this info. My gallbladder was kicking up something fierce, I have been having the greens, knocked back the grains and am feeling better. I also am doing apple cider vinegar in the morning with apple juice and bouncing on the mini trampoline.

[edouardocastillo]

Dr. Berg,
Taurine
NAC N acetyl cysteine
Glycine
L Glutamine
Milk thistle
Kickstart the phase 2 of the detoxification. That would be cool if you could do a video on that.

[kielbasaj]

You do a really good job of explaining it to laymen. Well done Dr. Berg.

[louise]

Our bodies are wonderfully made with built in mechanism to heal itself, with the proper foods, amazing thank you.

[vimalneha]

I have enormous respect for this gentleman, can't express it enough! He is giving all important hints, that can be easily taken up.

Ever since I started blending cruciferous veggies, I have seen a huge improvement in my overall health. I just can’t wait to get a real juicer and make it a daily thing. I also pray that my skin which has a lot of hyperpigmentation will clear off and my horrible disgusting PMS will disappear so I get off the toxic Naproxen and Tylenol.
