Kale and pears are both good liver foods, and great prebiotics for the gut as are the onions and parsley. The avocado and cashews add some good quality fats and the yogurt provides both prebiotic and probiotics.
Avocado Dressing
Trim the kale and tear into pieces suitable for a salad. Add the celery, pears, red onion, and parsley. Mix well. Add the avocado dressing and mix. Allow the salad to sit for an hour before eating to soften the kale. Chopped cashews can be added to make it more substantial. Season to taste.
Note: Purple Kale or Black Kale can also be used

Less anxiety = more sociable. Who knew it could be that simple?
