4. Dandelion Greens
For centuries, dandelion greens have been used to treat a range of physical ailments, including cancer, acne, liver disease and digestive issues. Also, some researchers suggest that dandelion’s ability to improve carbohydrate metabolism and reduce fat absorption may even lead to weight loss.
“When it comes to nutrient density (nutrients per calorie) the mighty dandelion is tops,” says Kay. “Rich in protective antioxidant vitamins A and C, dandelions are a gentle cleansing folk tonic for the liver and gall bladder.” Look for tender leaves at your local farmer’s market or health store.
