Our Livers Need for Water

Although many realize that the liver has its own cleansing system, it does need help - as it cannot maintain its healthy state if its being abused. Abuse occurs when too much of the wrong foods are entering the body.

The livers main role is to neutralize the wastes and toxins in the body. Toxins refer to "bad foods" that do more harm than good. Some of these "bad foods" are fried foods that are high in fat, caffeine and alcohol.

There is nothing wrong with eating these foods in moderation, however, too much of these unhealthy foods in the body can lead to low energy levels. These low levels are caused because the liver has to work much harder to break down the excessive amounts of "bad food" in the body and the liver is unable to continue processing the toxins at its optimum rate.

In order to avoid problems, drink plenty of water to assist the livers cleansing function by flushing out wastes. Water hydrates the body and allows the cells to stay healthy and active. This is necessary for the proper function of all bodily organs.

Try to eat green leafy vegetables and fruits and exercise is always recommended.
