LOVE YOUR LIVER

Hi... I’m your Liver!
Let me tell you
how much I love you... in 9 ways

   

1. I store the iron reserves
you need, as well as a
lot of vitamins and
other minerals
.

Without me, you
wouldn’t have the
strength to carry on!

2. I make bile to help
digest your food.

Without me, you’d
waste away to
nothing.

3.  I detoxify poisonous
chemicals
you give me,
and that includes alchohol, beer,
wine, and drugs (prescribed
and over-the-counter) as well
as illegal substances.

Without me, your “bad habits”
would kill you.

 

4.   I store energy, like a battery,
by stockpiling sugar
(carbohydrates, glucose and
fat) until you need it.

Without me, the sugar level in
your blood could fall
dramatically and you’d go into
a coma.

 

 

5.  I make the blood that got your
system going even before you
were born.


Without me, you
wouldn’t be here!

6.  I manufacture new
   proteins
that your body
   needs to stay healthy and
   grow.

   Without me, you wouldn’t
   grow properly!

7.   I remove poisons from the air,
exhaust smoke and chemicals
you breathe.

Without me, you’d be
poisoned by pollutants!

 

 

8.  I make clotting factors that stop
the bleeding when you
accidentally prick yourself.


Without me, you’d bleed to
death !

9.  I help defend you against the
germs going into your body all
the time. I take those cold
germs, flu bugs and other germs
you encounter, and knock them
dead - or at least
weaken them.


Without me, you’d be a sitting
duck for every infection known to
man.

 

That’s how much
I love you ...
but do you love me ?
Let me tell you some easy ways
to love me, your liver !!!
   
Don’t drown me in beer, alcohol or
wine!

Even one drink is too much for some people and could scar me for life.

     
Watch those drugs!
All drugs are chemicals, and some drugs could
damage me badly.
   
I scar easily..and those scars, called“cirrhosis”

are permanent

   
  Medicine is sometimes necessary. But taking pills
when they aren’t necessary is a bad habit.

All those chemicals can really hurt a liver.
     
Be careful with aerosol sprays!
   
  Remember, I have to detoxify what you breathe in, too. So when you are cleaning with aerosol cleaners, make sure the room is ventilated, or wear a mask.
   
That goes double for bug sprays, mildew sprays, paint sprays and all those other chemical sprays you use. Be careful what you breathe!
     
Watch what gets on your skin! Those insecticides you put on trees and shrubs not only kill bugs, they can get to me right through your skin and destroy my cells, too.
Remember they’re all chemicals.
   
Cover your skin with gloves, long sleeves, a hat and mask every time insecticides are in the air or if you’re handling them.
     
Don’t eat too much fatty food!
I make the cholesterol your body needs, and I try to make the right amount.

Give me a break. Eat a good, well balanced nourishing diet. If you eat the right stuff for me, I’ll really do my stuff for you!

     
WARNING:
I can’t and won’t tell you I’m in trouble until
I’m almost at the end of my rope... and yours.
Remember: I am a non-complainer. Overloading me with
drugs, alchohol and other junk can destroy me ! This may
be the only warning you will ever get.
Take My Advice, Please!
Check me out with your doctor.
Blood screening tests can identify some trouble.
If I’m soft and smooth, that’s good. If I am hard and bumpy that could mean trouble.
If your doctor suspects trouble, ULTRA SOUND and CT scans can look into it.
My life, and yours, depends on how you treat me.
Now you know how much I care for you.
Please treate me with tender loving care.
Your silent partner and
ever-loving lover.....LIVER
