The largest internal organ in humans, the Liver is considered as a workhorse for its remarkable ability to perform a wide range of duties. The vital organ has an involvement in nearly every body function and is known to carry out more than 500 tasks. Some of the significant role played by the liver in the human body are:

  • Liver converts harmful toxins present in the body into waste products
  • It distributes and stores essential nutrients in the body
  • Liver produces bile which carries away waste and break down fats during digestion.
  • This organ plays a pivotal role in blood clotting
  • Liver maintains the right level of blood sugar in the body

It is clearly evident from the above points, that how crucial is an organ like liver for the human body and why there is a genuine need to preserve its health. Despite the fact that Liver is a regenerative organ and has an ability to detoxify itself, the constant exposure of dietary and environmental toxins in humans can hamper this vital organ’s ideal functioning. Hence, one needs to take adequate steps to manually cleanse the liver in order to restore the organ’s vitality.

Like any other health problems, the human body gives out cues and signals when the liver isn’t functioning to the optimal level. Following are some of the most common signs of a problematic liver:

  • Constant Feeling Of Exhaustion

One of the most common signals of a liver disease is chronic fatigue. Several experimental findings have found that the extreme tiredness associated with liver disease is likely due to a change in neurotransmission in the brain. The low energy level tremendously reduces the productivity of the affected person.

  • Foul Breath

Last stage liver failure causes a condition known as “Fetor Hepaticus,” which results in an extreme bad breath. This symptom is potentially used as a diagnostic method for detecting liver pathologies.

  • Bloating

A person who has a liver disease experience the problem of bloating even without consuming a heavy meal. Bloating is considered to be a subtle sign of having a liver insufficiency.

  • Stomach Ache

It is common for a person with liver disease to have stomach pain, which is often followed by nausea and vomiting. In a person with liver disease, the pain is usually felt in the upper right area of the abdomen, just below the ribs.

  • Abnormal Weight Gain

The bad bacteria starts to get accumulated in the gut of a person with liver disease, leading to slow metabolism and inflammation. This causes a tremendous weight gain within a short period of time.

  • Abnormal Weight Loss

It is equally true that the liver disease can also cause slimming. A condition like Liver Cirrhosis makes the affected body difficult to absorb the nutrition, leading to weakness and weight loss.

  • Losing The Ability To Concentrate

Fogginess is experienced usually by people having liver diseases. When it becomes hard for the body to flush out the toxins fast, it gets quickly accumulated in the body, causing inflammation. The protective blood-brain barrier gets damaged by the inflammation, leading to a condition known as “leaky brain syndrome.”

What All Factors Impair The Liver’s Health?

Apart from genetics, certain way of lifestyle and the practice of some unhealthy habits can cause liver damage. Some of the external factors which can cause liver inefficiencies are:

  • Excessive Alcohol Consumption

Binge Drinking is one of the major causes of Liver Cirrhosis. The over consumption of alcohol damages the liver, leads to the build up of fats, inflammation and scarring. The accumulation of fats inside the body can lead to abnormal weight gain, which is another leading cause of liver damage.

  • Too Much Sugar In The Diet

Several studies have shown that too much sugar in the diet of a person with liver disease, mimics the same harm caused by alcohol. As the liver converts fructose (type of sugar) into fats, too much sugar can cause fatty build up which often proves harmful for the liver.

  • Taking Medications Erratically

Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen is a famous medicine used to treat pain and fever. Not many people know that Paracetamol overdose is the leading cause of liver failure in Britain. It is therefore advised to take recommended dose of the medicines only.

  • Consumption Of Certain Supplements

Certain supplements like Vitamin A, Green Tea Extract, Niacin etc when taken in higher doses can severely harm the liver. The doctor’s advice should always be taken before consuming such supplements.

  • Exposure To Harmful Chemicals

Toxic Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver caused by the ingestion of harmful chemicals. This might include pesticides, fungicide, paint or even prolonged exposure to pollution.

How To Detoxify The Liver Naturally?

There are several measures one can take to naturally detoxify and cleanse their liver. The top 6 of the best natural liver detoxification methods are given below.

  • Eliminate Toxic Foods From The Diet

Processed food containing Trans Fats work against the liver health. One should also cut down on refined sugar and hydrogenated oils from their diet.

  • Go For A Gut Friendly Diet

A balanced, healthy diet rich in fibres promote weight loss and also keeps excellent gut health. Salmon, Lentils, Leafy Greens, Citrus Foods, Almonds are some of the foods that boost the liver health.

  • Try Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting is an excellent way to flush out toxins from the body. The fasting also decreases the level of inflammation, promoting better health.

  • Use Liver Supplements Wisely

As the liver process each and every tablets going into the system, supplement overdose can be detrimental for liver health. The dosage should be followed strictly for each and every medication.

  • Indulge Often In Sweating Session.

Sweating is one of the natural ways our body manages to throw out the toxins. By engaging in a healthy dose of physical activity daily, one can detoxify themselves greatly, which would be beneficial for the overall liver health.

  • Learn To Let It Go

Stress can have a negative impact on health and is often the cause of manu auto-immune disorders. By learning to manage the thoughts and emotions, one can tremendously boost their vitality.

IS THERE ANY TREATMENT FOR PERMANENT LIVER FAILURE ?

The liver completely stops functioning in people experiencing liver failure. The best way to restore health in permanent liver failure is by opting for a liver transplant. In this procedure, a patient’s diseased liver is replaced with a whole or partial healthy liver from another person.However, it should be taken into account that liver transplant is always a last resort. Dropping alcohol consumption and adopting a healthy lifestyle is the best way to regain the vitality of the liver.

Summary

There is clearly no magic wand that can instantly boost the liver?s health. A healthy diet and an active lifestyle is key for maintaining the vitality of any internal organs, including the liver. Nevertheless, by practicing the above mentioned detoxification methods, one can gradually retain the superb health of their liver.
