Kapanlagi.com - The liver is one of the most important organs in the human body. The liver itself functions to filter toxins that enter your body through the blood. The liver can also repair and regenerate damaged tissues. Therefore, maintaining liver function is very important for overall health.

However, unfortunately, many people suffer from this disease. Certainly, this cannot be taken lightly. Because, if not immediately addressed, this disease will cause serious complications. In addition, it is not uncommon for people with liver disease to threaten the life of the patient.

In general, the causes of liver disease can come from infection by parasites and viruses. As previously known, the liver is an organ in the body that can easily replace damaged cells, but if the required cells are lost, the liver cannot meet the body's needs properly.

Well, for that reason, it is important for you to be very concerned about the health of your liver function. Here are tips for maintaining liver function and health that you need to apply.

 

 

1. Do Immunization

Liver disease or hepatitis can be caused by viruses. To prevent it, you can do immunization as early as possible. In fact, some types of hepatitis vaccines like hepatitis B vaccine are recommended to be given to newborns. By doing immunization with hepatitis vaccines, it will provide protection for the body to fight against the disease.

 

2. Drink Water

Did you know that the liver is an organ that functions to neutralize various harmful substances in the body? That's why it is necessary to fulfill the body's water intake by always drinking water. Of course, it is no longer a secret that someone is highly recommended to drink at least 8 glasses of water per day.

Because if the body lacks water, the liver's work to neutralize toxins will become heavier because there is no solution that can help dissolve those substances. This is where water plays an important role in helping to dissolve various substances and chemicals in the body.

 

3. Do Not Consume Alcohol

Liver disease can be caused by excessive and long-term alcohol consumption. In addition to causing inflammation, swelling, and cirrhosis or scarring of the liver organ, the abuse of alcohol consumption can reduce the liver cell's ability to regenerate itself. As a result, the patient will experience serious liver disorders and permanent liver damage.

Because when someone consumes alcoholic beverages, the liver automatically works too hard to cleanse alcohol from the body, resulting in the disease. Therefore, in order to avoid liver cirrhosis, do not attempt to consume alcohol.

 

4. Take Medications According to the Dose

If you are taking preventive measures for liver health, it is advisable to be careful when taking medication and consume them according to the prescribed dose. Because the liver functions to convert drugs into active or neutral substances. So, if you are accustomed to taking fever medication, cough medicine, and body supplements, they can become toxic to the liver if consumed excessively and without clear rules. This is what triggers increased liver workload and can damage the liver organ.

 

 

5. Consumption of Green Vegetables

Diet is one of the factors that determine the health of body organs, including the liver. To avoid various dangerous liver diseases, it is good for you to consume green vegetables such as cabbage, broccoli, spinach, and others.

Because, if you regularly consume green vegetables, then the liver's work will become lighter because the traffic of metabolism in the body can be well regulated. In addition, consuming nuts is also very necessary because it can help prevent liver disease.

Those are a series of tips to maintain the health of the liver. Therefore, avoid yourself from various bad threats to kidney health like the advice above. Hopefully useful.
