The liver is a very important organ for the organism because it intervenes in the metabolism of food, drugs, toxins and more generally of whatever is introduced into the human body.

The liver can be compared to a model worker, always punctual, efficient and who hardly gets sick or complains about too much work.

Precisely because it is aware of its extreme importance, many people ask themselves what are the best strategies to keep it healthy and efficient day after day.
