Understanding Liver Function
The liver, weighing approximately 1.5 kilograms, is the body's largest internal organ and performs over 500 vital functions, including:
| Detoxification: |
The liver filters and cleanses the blood, converting toxins into safer forms for removal.
|
| Metabolism: |
The liver processes carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It stores glucose as glycogen for energy.
|
| Bile Production: |
The liver makes bile, stored in the gallbladder, which helps digest fats in the small intestine.
|
| Storage: |
Important nutrients like vitamins, minerals, glucose, and glycogen are stored in the liver.
|
| Blood Clotting: |
The liver produces proteins necessary for blood clotting, preventing excessive bleeding.
|
| Immune Function: |
It aids the immune system by removing harmful substances like bacteria and viruses from the blood.
