If your body was a corporation, your liver would definitely be the "President." That's how essential this vital organ is to your optimum health. Unfortunately, in our modern society, your liver is under constant attack. Every second of every day, it's working to deal with unhealthy foods, alcohol use, prescription drugs, household chemicals, pesticides, or even worse.
As the liver and kidneys are critical organs for enabling the body's natural detoxification capacity, supporting their health could lead to many more years of healthy living.
Here are some important facts to demonstrate why your health depends on a fully functioning and healthy liver:
Fact #1-Your liver produces a quart of bile daily to break down fat.
Fact #2-Your liver removes harmful toxins from nearly 100 gallons of blood per day.
This includes internal and external environmental pollutants.
Fact #3-Your liver produces 13,000 essential chemicals and hormones and manages over 50,000 enzymes.
Fact #4-Your liver supports healthy blood sugar metabolism.
Fact #5-Your liver stores essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, D, K and B12.

Be nice to your liver. I posted the above list of liver functions to make you realize vital the liver is. You can Google "liver cleanse" or you can start by taking a look at the above URL which has an advertisement for their product. There are others available. It touts Milk Thistle as its major ingredient.
I copied the Xtendovite formula but at higher dosages. I take mega doses of Milk Thistle and Kyolic (Garlic concentrate) 3 times a day with Cayenne, Bilberry and Hawthorne Berry. I will see in a couple of months how well this works. The Kyolic- Garlic detoxifies the liver and the Milk Thistle handles the toxins the liver releases. This combination should lower my bad cholesterol numbers and detxify my liver.
