The liver is the largest gland in the body. Glands are organs that are similar to sponges. They secrete and absorb fluid. The liver secretes the digestive fluids, which are stored in the gallbladder. They are used for breaking down carbohydrates and protein. The liver stores six-hour supply of reserved natural sugars, which can be used in emergencies.
Dis-eases of the liver usually cause digestive problems, sluggishness, weakness, vomiting, headaches, fever, weight loss, nausea, mental disorders, hemorrhages, fatigue, and low energy levels. The most common dis-ease of the liver is jaundice, which is characterized by the yellowish eyes, fingernails, toenails and skin. Drinking alcohol, soda or vinegar damages the liver and causes the liver to get hard. All drugs, synthetic chemicals, hormones and toxins go to the liver. Chemicals made in body by radiation (computers, television, etc.), chemicals in polluted air, water(public drinking water), noise (makes chemicals) and synthetic hormones decreases the livers functions such as making blood thinner(heparin), blood clotting (thickeners) constituents, red blood cells for the fetus, body heat, cholesterol, buffers (ammonia) that neutralize acidic blood, storage of Vitamin B12 and Vitamins A,D,E,and K and destroying the bacteria in the blood. When the liver gets weak, enlarged, inflamed or hard (cirrhosis), the spleen and kidney become weak.
*Meat eaters should never eat an animals liver because it is the most toxic(polluted) organ in the animals body.*
