Try doing a 'net search on "liver congestion" or "liver overload." The liver has over 500 known functions. A liver that is overloaded and incapable of taking care of body needs can cause a wide variety of symptoms. This is because the liver has so many separate and distinct functions, affecting health in many ways.

Removing poisons from your body is an important function of the liver. In fact, this is one of the main reasons the liver becomes overloaded. Poisons may enter your body in many ways. You may inhale the poisons sprayed on your lawn, insecticides and household cleaning solvents, or chemicals used in a hobby, such as photography. These are all known poisons and should be avoided as much as possible.

Also, medications purchased and used so freely in our culture, put a significant extra load on the liver and can eventually be harmful.

Chemicals used as preservatives, stabilizers, artificial flavorings, artificial colorings and to aid in the processing of foods are all potential problems regarding liver function. Add to all this smog, aerosol sprays (perfumes, hair sprays, deodorants, room fresheners, insect repellents, dusting aids), alcohol, and many other varied poisons in our environment and you can see how the liver may become overworked and ultimately damaged.

The liver is a major storage area for carbohydrates and proteins. Ordinarily the liver stores very little fat; it should normally contain 3% to 5%. There are several reasons that too much fat or fat-like substances accumulate in the liver. People with poor protein intake have more fat in the liver because certain substances in protein are essential in breaking down fat. Without these substances, fat is deposited rather than used. Conversely, too much protein in the diet causes a liver overload because the liver must eliminate the waste products from the protein breakdown. Consumption of too many refined carbohydrates and/or too much alcohol can cause an elevation of triglycerides, which are fat in nature and accumulate in the liver, causing congestion and interference with normal liver function.

Symptoms of liver overload may be aches and pains, severe fatigue, digestive disturbances, swelling, a constant chilled feeling, and poor appetite. There may be an inability to tolerate medications due to improper breakdown and elimination of the drugs, with an increased number of side effects.
