In TCM, liver is responsible for guiding the flow of qi, storing blood, aiding in digestion, maintaining emotional health, and especially managing women’s health. In order to ensure that our liver functions at its best, we want to have foods that can subdue rising liver yang/fire, reduce stagnation of the liver, and support the stomach and spleen-- the two organs that work closely with the liver for our digestion and more.
