The Human Liver
The liver is the largest organ in the body, and has many dynamic functions, which are all performed, to perfection, when the liver is in its healthy state. Anybody can appreciate the role the liver plays in health by taking a look at its amazing functions:
- Elimination of all toxic substances from the blood
- Regulation of carbohydrate metabolism
- Regulation of protein metabolism
- Storage of Glycogen and vitamins A, D, and many of the B complex vitamins ( including vitamin B12, iron and copper
- Synthesis of most blood components
Medical orthodoxy has, to date, not recognized that the average modern-day lifestyle imposes a toxic overload. Thus, the liver cannot keep up with the detoxification requirements and must contend with these toxins.
This is the genesis of auto-immune disease and explains the paradox of how our own immune system is fooled into attacking the very tissues it was originally designed to protect.
Liver toxicity is common all over the world. Resultant conditions of a toxic liver include the following:
 | chronic fatigue and obesity
| depression and stress
| Insomnia and auto-immune disease
| allergies and sexual dysfunction
| headaches and irritability
| hormonal imbalance and thymus malfunction | |
