Liver health represents an unaddressed medical concern worldwide.
The liver is a vital organ and maintaining optimal liver health is crucial.
Key Liver Facts
The liver is the largest solid organ and is located in the upper right side of the abdomen, just below the diaphragm. Without it the body can’t carry out essential functions.
Key Functions
Metabolism:
Digests carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, converting them into usable forms for energy production and storage.
Detoxification:
Clears harmful substances, including toxins, drugs, and alcohol, by breaking them down and eliminating them from the body.
Storage & Synthesis:
Stores essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. Synthesizes proteins, including blood-clotting factors and albumin, which helps maintain proper fluid balance in the body.
Immune Function:
Removes bacteria, viruses, and other harmful substances from the bloodstream and contributes to the body’s overall immune response.
