The role of the liver
The principal role of the liver is to remove toxins and process food nutrients. Everything eaten or drunk is processed by the digestive system and must pass through the liver. The liver is one of the largest excretory organs of the body. It must be included when doing a detox. The entire body’s blood passes through the liver every three minutes to be filtered and cleaned. Special attention to nutrition and diet can help keep the liver healthy.
Infection or disease can prevent the liver from performing its vital functions. Some forms of liver disease are inherited, while others are caused by lifestyle factors. The most common cause of liver disease is excessive alcohol consumption.
Some of the many functions of a healthy liver include:
- Drugs, including alcohol, are filtered through the liver and neutralized or converted into other forms by special enzymes.
- Bile, produced by the liver, is stored in the gall bladder and used to help break down dietary fats.
- Fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K need bile in order to be absorbed by the body.
- The liver converts carbohydrates into glucose for instantly available energy, and converts glucose into its storable form (glycogen). When blood sugar levels drop, glycogen is converted back into glucose.
- Amino acids from protein are sent to the liver for the production of body proteins such as hormones.
- The liver changes ammonia, a toxic by-product of protein metabolism, into urea, which is then excreted in urine.
