Many years ago, and still in some European countries, the liver is actively considered with such comments as "I think that I have a cold on my liver". Now, we scarcely consider our liver, which is one of the very vital organs of our body, making up to 20% of our body weight.
The liver is "the toxic waste dump' of our body and processes toxins into a state that they can be eliminated from our body. Some toxins require a lot of metabolic energy and are sent from one section of the liver to another for processing. It is no wonder that our livers can be overloaded and made vulnerable to the degenerative disease of cancer.
