World Liver Day

World Liver Day 


World Liver Day 2019 is observed on April 19. The liver is one of the most important organs in the digestive system. Digesting food and flushing out harmful toxins from the body are two of the essential functions of the liver. Alcohol consumption, smoking and regular consumption of junk foods are some of the top causes of liver disease. In some, liver disease can also be inherited. Obesity is also a risk factor for liver disease. Constant damage to the liver can result in liver cirrhosis, a life-threatening condition that causes liver failure.
