Healthy Liver

Happy Liver Happy Life

When the liver is taken care of and operating properly it can lead to healthier blood, skin, balanced hormones, higher energy levels and toxins are moved out of the body with ease. 

An unwell liver can make people feel tired, full and in pain.  The liver's uniqueness comes from its ability to receive of a dual supply oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. The liver is a major storage site for our primary energy source, glucose. Vitamins A, B12 and D are stored in large quantities in the liver as well as ferritin (the bod's iron repository). (CITATION HERE) 

The liver can bring balance to the body in regards to sex, thyroid and adrenal hormones and may maintain the normal balance of hormones when the endocrine gland is disturbed. 

The liver acts as one of the body's main organs of detoxification.  It protects the body from chemical assaults via the ability to convert fat-soluble compounds into water-soluble metabolites that can be more easily excreted in the urine or stool.  (CITATION HERE) 

In 2009 a landmark study was commissioned by the Environmental Working Group to check the stored umbilical cord blood of ten random infants born in US hospitals during the summer of 2004.  The study found that more than 200 chemicals, including substances like mercury, organochlorine pesticides and polyaromatic hydrocarbons. (CItATION HERE)  This shows us that toxin exposure begins in the womb. 

Some markers to check for when wondering if there is a possible liver dysfunction can be early graying (before 30's), Acne eruptions in the temple area, red swollen ears, yellowing in the eyes, excessive sweating etc.
