My fellow readers, as you are reading this article, I wonder if you have any nicknames for your loved ones? Have you ever heard of someone calling his or her significant other as their “sweetheart”?

In fact, did you know that there is also a “sweetheart” living in our body? Just so you know, it is our dearest liver!

So why is the liver so important? So much so that we call it our "sweetheart"? Let us continue reading and find out why!


One of the functions of the liver is to synthesize cholesterol. At this time, you would probably start questioning your liver: “Why do you secrete cholesterol? Isn't cholesterol bad for health?”

In fact, it is not completely harmful to the human body! As a matter of fact, synthesizing cholesterol is important for our organs, cells, and hormones!


Besides that, the liver also synthesizes nutrients such as proteins, sugars, and fats, which are processed by the liver before they can be absorbed and utilized by us.

I think most of us would know that the function of the liver is to detoxify, filter and decompose unwanted wastes and toxins.

Actually, detoxification is to discharge the drugs, toxins, metabolites and other components in our body through the bile secreted by liver tissues. Therefore, if our liver function is damaged, it will cause the index of cholesterol or liver inflammation to rise.


Since the liver is so important, we must take good care of it! But, how can we take good care of our dearest liver?

First of all, don't commit alcohol abuse, drink in moderation!
Second, avoid eating raw or stale food.
Third, avoid consuming herbs and medicines from unknown sources!


These are three key points we need to take into consideration in our daily lifestyle to protect our dearest livers. When choosing food, we need to choose products that comply with Malaysian food regulations, and the medicines we take also need to be certified by the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA).

This is because products with unknown origins, unclear labels or exaggerated efficacy are likely to be added with some illegal ingredients, which may threaten our health!


Of course, our family members, friends, and partners around us are also very dear to our hearts. Why not share this article with them, so that they can better understand how important their liver is!
