GĐXH - The liver is an organ that is often overloaded and therefore easily poisoned and damaged. When the liver is detoxified, the patient will feel healthier, mentally improved and sleep better.

Signs of an overworked liver, warning of the need for liver detoxification, often develop subtly, are not obvious, and are easily mistaken for other illnesses. Especially after the Lunar New Year, many people visit the hospital with symptoms of an overloaded liver.

According to medical experts, fatty liver disease contributes to the development of cirrhosis or scarring of the liver. In the long term, the resulting scar tissue poses a risk of permanent liver damage. Therefore, people should pay attention to any unusual signs in their bodies to detect the disease early and receive prompt treatment.

The main causes stem from an overload of free radicals, leading to a weakened immune system, increased inflammation, and metabolic disorders in blood vessels and tissues; insulin resistance and atherosclerosis, resulting in microcirculation disorders in organs and tissues...

To reduce the burden on the liver, it is necessary to have a regular exercise regimen, be physically active, eat a healthy diet, get enough sleep, etc.

Signs of an overworked liver, requiring liver detoxification.

Digestive disorders

The liver secretes bile, which aids in the digestion of food. Liver damage causes symptoms such as loss of appetite, bloating, indigestion, and in more severe cases, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, and constipation. These conditions, if prolonged, lead to lethargy and weakness.

Pain or discomfort in the right lower rib area.

The right hypochondrium, or right flank, is the right side of the abdomen located just below the ribs. This is also where many important internal organs of the body converge, including the liver. Pain or discomfort in the right hypochondrium can be caused by liver diseases.

Tiredness, difficulty sleeping.

Chronic fatigue indicates an imbalance in the body, especially liver disease. Melatonin is a hormone that helps the body relax and induce sleepiness. People with liver disease often experience changes in melanin metabolism that lead to decreased concentration, drowsiness, and lethargy.

Skin problems

When liver function is impaired, the body reduces bilirubin excretion, leading to jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes). Normally, the sclera (the white part of the eye) is white, but when bilirubin levels in the blood are high, the skin and conjunctiva of the eyes turn yellow.
