Do you love your Liver?

• Your liver breaks down various substances, detoxing toxins out of your body in order to keep you alive. Especially now when we are being introduced to toxins, pesticides, heavy metals, plastics, harmful fumes, chemicals many times a day.

• Your liver filters and cleans all the blood in your body every 6 minutes.

• Your liver removes these toxins from the bloodstream and converts them to make them less harmful to your body.

• Your liver stores energy in the form of glycogen so you have energy when you need it, helps store vitamin and minerals

• The liver produces bile, which carries away waste and breaks down fats in the small intestine during digestion.

• The liver produces certain proteins for blood plasma, also plays a role in cholesterol regulation.

• The liver balances energy metabolism.

• Your liver regulates many important hormones, such as thyroid and estrogen.

• Over 400 vital functions have been identified with the liver.

• The more we drink alcohol, eat heavy processed foods, use cosmetics made with toxic chemicals among many other things, we weigh down the liver. It becomes congested and cannot function the way that it needs to in order to keep us healthy.

What can we do to show our liver some love?
