Artichoke, Olive & Sundried Tomato Pizza
Olives and olive oil are a key component of the Mediterranean diet and its success in human health and longevity. Olives are high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, aiding cardiovascular health and reducing inflammation systematically in the body. Artichoke is used as an herbal medicine for liver health and are also great for the liver as a food. Artichokes contain cynarin which is known for stimulating bile production. Bile helps us to digest fats efficiently and flush out any toxins from our system supporting the liver’s process. It is also full of antioxidants which help prevent free radical damage to the liver and has the same compound as St. Mary’s Thistle, silymarin which improves liver regeneration. Using a wrap instead of a pizza base reduces the carbohydrate load of this meal.
