What are the roles of the liver in the body?
The liver is a fundamental organ responsible for more than 500 essential functions for the proper functioning of our body. It is notably responsible for storing fat-soluble vitamins (vitamins A, D, E and K), participating in the metabolism of the three macronutrients (proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) and producing bile which helps the body digest fats. But the liver is best known for being a so-called “ emunctory ” organ, just like the kidneys, intestines, lungs and skin. Indeed, it has a detoxification function making it possible to eliminate toxins (medications, alcohol, tobacco, pollution, etc.) and toxins produced by our body.
In addition, the liver constitutes THE filtration and regulation system of our body. To give you an idea, it works continuously and ensures the filtration of approximately 1.5 liters of blood per minute . You will have understood, it is therefore essential to keep it in good health, by adopting a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Sometimes, it happens that our liver is saturated and is no longer able to properly eliminate harmful elements from our body. This is when a detox treatment using plants is necessary!
