The liver is the largest organ in the human body, weighing about three pounds (1.5kg).
It lies next to the stomach in the upper right part of the abdomen below a thin sheet of muscle known as the diaphragm.
The liver has many vital functions, these include storing sugars and releasing them into the blood or converting them into useful chemicals, building proteins, and cleaning the blood of poisons before disposing of them in bile (digestive liquid secreted by the liver).
The heat produced from all of these activities helps to maintain your temperature, it has an amazing capacity to regenerate itself, and will function normally with only a small portion in working order and you can survive with only half a liver.
It is a very uncomplaining organ-if it is not working properly you may not even know!
