A healthy microbiome also enables a healthy excretion of all the toxins the liver works so tirelessly to excrete, as well as enabling the absorption of the nutrients we receive from our food to fuel the hepatocytes in their dynamic functions.

Chicory root also works on phase 1 CYP enzymes, specifically CYP1A2 and CYP2. Traditionally and contemporarily, Chicory root is used alongside Dandelion root as a caffeine replacement beverage to decrease stress on liver health since caffeine can overburden the liver as it’s metabolised through it.
Chicory is also rich in polyphenols which provides that antioxidant effect for supporting the liver and reducing oxidative stress.
