Parsley Juice for Kidney Cleansing and Liver Detoxification


Green juiceParsley juice is a concentrated version of all the nutrition in the herb, including a rich array of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, enzymes, chlorophyll and volatile oils.

Some of the best known benefits of this green herb include kidney cleansing and liver detoxification.

Ahead are two special recipes for using parsley as a natural kidney treatment and liver healer.

The first is a potent juice with a combination of natural ingredients for effective detox and cleansing.

The second is a great tasting watermelon, cucumber and parsley smoothie that is especially good for flushing your kidneys of toxins.

First, a couple of precautions before using the amounts of parsley recommended in these recipes.

Potential Side Effects

Despite its many benefits, parsley juice should not be used in large amounts by pregnant women or those taking certain prescriptions. There is also conflicting advice regarding parsley for people already suffering from kidney disorders.

Some resources caution against using too much of the herb as it contains substances known as oxalates, sometimes suggested to be avoided by people with kidney problems.

On the other hand, parsley has a long history as a beneficial herb for detoxification. Both the fresh plant and dried tea are often recommended for kidney infections or to help with kidney stones.

It would be best to consult your GP before using the larger amounts of the herb in these recipes if you have been diagnosed with a kidney condition.

Juicing Parsley with Detoxifying Vegetables and Fruits

Parsley juice is generally considered too potent to have on its own and is better mixed with other complementary fruits and vegetables.

Some of the best of these for kidney cleansing and liver detoxification include:

Beet

Beet or beetroot juice is an excellent cleanser and detoxifier, particularly for the liver. It is also said to purify the bloodstream and help eliminate calcium oxalate stones.

Watermelon

Watermelon juice is great for flushing the kidneys and watermelon seeds are especially beneficial for kidney stones. If this is something you’re concerned with, then look for a watermelon with the brown seeds rather than the seedless varieties. Watermelon for juicing with parsley

Organic Celery

Celery juice strengthens the liver and kidneys and helps to eliminate toxins. Unfortunately conventionally grown celery often has a high pesticide load so organic is definitely preferable, or scrub it with vinegar first to minimize them.

Organic Carrot

Carrot juice is another potent body cleanser and particularly good for the kidneys.

Carrots can absorb pesticides and heavy metals from the ground they’re grown in so they really should be organic to make this recipe as healthy as possible.

Organic cucumber

Cucumber is a diuretic that helps flush uric acid out of the body and dissolve kidney stones.

The skin is full of antioxidants but conventionally grown cucumbers have a significant pesticide load and are also usually coated with wax. If you can’t find organic cucumbers to juice you’d be better off peeling them.

Lemon

Lemon juice from a fresh lemon is an excellent cleanser and can help dissolve mineral deposits that lead to calcium oxalate stones. Lemon will also help delay oxidation of the other juices.

Parsley with a Juicer

While you could use as standard centrifugal juicer, unless it’s a particularly good one you won’t get much juice out of even a whole bunch of parsley.

In the past I’ve tried squeezing the herb into a ball between two carrots, but in the end I realized a proper masticating juicer just makes more sense.

While they cost more initially, a masticating juicer is an essential item if you want to juice green superfoods like parsley, spinach or wheatgrass effectively.

They also get far more out of regular fruit and veggies, as well as keeping the heat and oxidation right down. This greatly improves both the quantity and quality of the juice they deliver.

If you are juicing greens regularly, both from a nutrition perspective and financially in the long run, it’s well worth looking for a good masticating juicer. You’ll get much more juice using one of these versus a centrifugal juicer. Parsley ready for juicing

Kidney and Liver Detoxification Juice Recipe

Ingredients for 2

  • 1 ounce of organic parsley (roughly half an average sized bunch) soaked in warm water and a dash of vinegar.
  • 2 large or 3 medium organic carrots.
  • 2 sticks of organic celery.
  • 1 medium beetroot.
  • 1 small or half a large organic cucumber with the peel (peel non-organic cucumbers).
  • The juice of 1 large or 2 small lemons (always discard citrus seeds).

Method

  1. Pour lemon juice into your collection container along with a couple of ice cubes. This will help lessen the degradation of the parsley juice.
  2. Push all of the ingredients through the juicer, alternating between the harder carrots and beetroot with the softer cucumber and celery.
  3. Scrunch the parsley up into a ball and feed it through between the harder vegetables. Once again, you will get much more juice out of a masticating juicer than a centrifugal one.
  4. Stir to mix the juice and drink immediately. It’s best to sip this detoxification juice down slowly over a couple of minutes. It won’t keep and should be enjoyed straight away.

Kidney Cleansing Smoothie Recipe

A well-designed blender can pulverize any greens up into a refreshing smoothie. In this state you’re getting all of the benefits of parsley in an easily digestible form.

While you could chop up watermelon and juice it, it’s so high in water content that it is especially suitable for blending. The same goes for cucumber.

There are also beneficial nutrients in the seeds of both watermelon and cucumber, so if you’re not afraid of a little texture, then keep the seeds in (the better the blender the smaller these will be chopped up).

Ingredients for 2

  • Half an ounce of organic parsley (less is needed than in juicing as the whole herb is used).
  • The juice of 1 large or 2 small lemons (minus the seeds).
  • 1 organic cucumber, diced with the peel on and seeds kept (peel first if you can’t find organic).
  • As much watermelon with the seeds as you can fit into the blender.

Method

Blend all these ingredients up until you can see the parsley leaves finely pureed and the watermelon seeds chopped up into tiny pieces.

With all the watermelon in this smoothie you shouldn’t need extra liquid but you can add a splash of healthy ‘milk’ of your choice if you like. Though coconut water would be even better.

This smoothie is extremely refreshing and very good for cleaning the kidneys in particular. Watermelon doesn’t keep once blended though, so you’d want to drink it immediately for the richest supply of antioxidants and enzymes. Petroselinum crispum for juicing

Recommended Treatment Time

As previously mentioned, juiced parsley is quite potent. Given this, it’s best not to make it up for too many consecutive days. Even once a week will provide many benefits.

If you are doing a juice cleanse then making up the recipe above on every second day would be highly beneficial. After the first week of treatment a week off is recommended.

After that, if you would like to continue with using parsley juice for liver and kidney detoxification, you can make it up whenever you feel your body could use some cleansing.

There’s several other healing juice and smoothie recipes for detoxification on Superfood Profiles, including this tropical smoothie with papaya seeds for parasites.

I’d appreciate hearing any feedback on how you feel after making up either the parsley juice or smoothie recipe for yourself.

Hi Shosho,

I think it depends a lot on how high a temperature you roast the watermelon seeds and other kinds of seeds at. The higher the temperature the more chance of the healthy fats changing their structure and becoming less than healthy. You definitely don’t want them going too brown.

Just read a few days ago about some of the benefits of parsley for the kidneys. I am in my mid 50’s and have no known problems but since kidney problems seem to run in my family, I am going to try prevention now rather than treatment after the fact. I came up with my own “recipe” of 2 to 3 slices of pineapple with some of the juice, cinnamon and/or powdered cloves (small amount of each for taste) and about 1/2 cup of water to help the blender chop up the parsley. Now I am glad to find your website with even better suggestions for other beneficial ingredients.

Hi Robinson,

I think it’s important to find a health care professional you feel comfortable with who can help you fix what sounds like a serious health issue. Natural methods may well have a place in helping you to heal but you’d need to be seen and treated personally by a specialist I think.

Best of luck getting this fixed.

What is the amount recommended to drink?

Reply
Jim Dillan

Hi Christen,

The juice recipe here will make a good sized glass, probably a glass and a half. It’s always better to drink parsley juice with other complementary juices like the ones in the article. It’s considered a bit to powerful to have just on it’s own. Half a regular sized bunch is the maximum I’d have in a juice and a quarter in a smoothie.

Hope this helps.

Reply
Jim Dillan

Hi Misty,

Parsley is a mild emmenagogue and it can be used to induce menstruation if it is late or delayed. Only a large amount, some resources suggest at least 4 cups a day, could possibly bring a period on early and even then only by a few days. For juicing, parsley is powerful and it’s best not to have too much at once and stick to the amounts suggested in the recipes.

I have a problem with my kidney for it has a stone obstructed on my left ureter… i once had flushed out a stone and had it examined and it turned out to contain oxalates… should eating or juicing parsley be beneficial in my case?

Reply
Jim Dillan

Hi there. I have to advise checking with your physician in this case. The ingredients in this recipe are all chosen for their beneficial effect on the kidneys, including minimizing kidney stones. Parsley juice is potent though and should always be mixed with larger amounts of other beneficial juices like carrot and cucumber. Smaller amounts of parsley in meals are digested more slowly and would rarely cause problems.

Hope this helps.

Reply
Jim Dillan

Hi there and thanks for your question. Parsley is considered a gentle diuretic for reducing fluid retention. It’s actually often suggested to relieve swollen ankles. If you are having this kind of reaction though it would probably be best to stop using it for a week.

If you wanted to continue using it again after that you should start at a much lower dose than you currently use, perhaps a quarter as an example. Then see if you can slowly build up over the coming weeks. I’d still suggest keeping the amounts on the smaller side long term. If the problem with swollen ankles is persistent it would be best to visit a healthcare professional.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jim,

Wow, that’s all I can say about your extremely informative and healthy advice. I would like to ask u for a recommendation, my husband has been trying parsley toner (homemade of course) for his face for almost a week now. His skin is brown and his face gets oily around the t-zone his main concern is he has uneven skin tone and was told to give the parsley toner a try. Even if he scrubs his face and uses any types of products, when he finishes cleansing his face when he rubs and rubs his face with any toner (not parsley though), the cotton pad/facial towel still ends up looking like he didn’t clean his face but his face looks matte. Is this called hyper pigmentation? Do you have any suggestions on anything other than parsley toner he could use on his face? Does this have to do with the inside of the body? If so what suggestions could u give? He’s been to various dermatologists, all prescribing some pills etc. but as u know they can only be used for a certain amount of time which works but after usage being discontinued for a while it all starts up again. And those chemicals inside the pills, well, that’s another thing! So he believes in natural ways are so much healthier and better in the long run! If u would give him your opinion on some natural remedies it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Hi there. I’d consider regularly drinking a small amount of parsley juice diluted in other vegetable juices like carrot, beet and celery to be a good preventative against kidney disease. Unfortunately I can’t advise for someone currently being treated for kidney disease, especially in case it may affect medications. It would be best to consult his physician on using vegetable juices. Perhaps start by suggesting carrot juice, which is generally recognized as highly beneficial, and if this is well tolerated and helping you could ask about a small amount of parsley juice as well.

I hope his treatment goes well and he gets better soon.

Hi Shari,

I’m glad the parsley juice helped with your kidney pain but it is considered a mild emmenagogue so 6 days of the juice may have been responsible for this https://superfoodprofiles.com/parsley-pregnancy-precautions I think a break from it is a good idea but if you’d like to continue with it then I’d reduce the dosage by half and have it every second day.

Parsley is generally considered safe as an emmenagogue http://www.md-health.com/How-To-Induce-Your-Period.html but could you let me know how much you were using and I’ll add an extra note on this page as well as the one on the parsley precautions article about this issue.

Hello, everyone. I cut up one bunch of parsley with herb shears and boil it all in about
one gallon of water. I then throw in 3 milk thistle tea bags and 3 cilantro tea bags and let
the whole thing set for awhile then strain it. I drink a 12oz glass of this on an empty stomach
in the morning. Milk thistle has also been proven to be a great healer of the kidneys and liver.
I would recommend the Jan. 2014 edition of Life Extension magazine, page 78 , “Novel Method
Boosts Milk Thistle Liver Concentration 10-Fold.” This is accomplished by a newly-discovered
compound, phosphatidylcholine, which increases the absorbtion of milk thistle through cell
membranes.

Hello and thanks for the great info. If you do the 3 day cleans with just the parsley, Is that a fast, or is it taken between meals and if so how often per day.

Hi Tina,

It can be used in either way but as a meal replacement, perhaps for lunch would be beneficial for detox and weight loss. I’d suggest trying it this way first with a healthy breakfast and dinner before doing a full juice fast.

Hiya. Tks for all the useful info. I’ve recently put on some weight which I’m finding hard to shed cos, according to some folks, is due to my approaching menopause (49). Also have been told that I have lotsa fluid retention which could also be blocking the weight loss. So a friend suggested I do a parsley cleanse by boiling 250gms (4 bunches) in 2 litres of water, then strain, cool and store in the fridge overnight and consume the next day. What are your thoughts on this? Also do I really need to store it overnight or should 6hours suffice? Cheers

Hi Bina and thanks for your comments.

Boiling parsley is quite popular which I find a bit confusing as my research points to the some of most powerful parts being the volatile oils which would surely be boiled off in this process. The minerals would likely be usable but 4 bunches seems excessive. There’s no special benefit in overnight either.

Personally I think a smaller amount of parsley in a juice recipe like this or a smoothie would be more effective with the full compliment of nutrients available.

Hope this helps,
