LIVER: Known as “Yakrut” in Ayurveda, Liver is the largest and one of the most important internal organs, which functions as the body’s chemical factory and regulates the levels of most of the main chemicals in the blood. It absorbs oxygen & nutrients from the blood and regulates the blood’s glucose and amino- acid levels. It helps breakdown drugs & various toxins and produces bile which removes waste products and helps process fats in the small intestine. The liver has many functions vital to the body including producing of important proteins for blood plasma; like albumin (which regulates the exchange of water between blood & tissues), complement (a group of proteins that play a part in the immune system), coagulation factors (which enable blood to clot when a blood vessel wall is damaged) and globin (a constituent of the oxygen carrying pigment haemoglobin). The liver also produces cholesterol and special proteins that help carry fats around the body.
