Liver Complex

Liver Complex consists of a combination of various plant extracts such as turmeric, dandelion and artichoke, which are characterized by a broad spectrum of action, and vitamins B6 and riboflavin.

The liver is the central metabolic organ in the body and performs a number of important functions. It plays a key role in the metabolism of sugar, proteins, amino acids, fatty acids, and energy production. It maintains constant blood sugar levels and regulates the balance of many other important substances.

The liver consists of two large lobes and is located below the diaphragm in the right upper abdomen. It is the largest metabolic organ in the human body. The liver consists of numerous tiny lobules, approximately one to two millimeters in size, which form functional units and are composed of liver cells. The liver's functions play an extremely important role in the human body. The liver absorbs all substances that are transported to it via the blood from the portal vein and the hepatic artery. It processes and/or stores these substances and then releases them into the bloodstream and the bile duct system. This property makes the liver the largest gland in the human body.

The liver is involved in the metabolism of glucose (sugar), storing glucose in the form of glycogen and releasing it again when needed. In this way, it helps to keep blood sugar levels as constant as possible. The liver can extract energy from blood fats and/or convert them into stored fat. It serves as an energy reserve in times of hunger and can then release stored substances in a targeted manner. Vitamins, trace elements, and amino acids are also metabolized and stored in the liver. If the supply of micronutrients is temporarily poor, the need can be met by emptying the stores. The liver produces important plasma proteins (e.g., clotting factors) and precursors for the production of sex hormones. The liver's excretion product is bile. It contains salts of bile acids, which serve to emulsify fats in the intestine. Only in this way can fats from food be "digested" and absorbed into the body.

The liver can detoxify foreign substances (such as alcohol, chemicals, pesticides, environmental toxins, heavy metals, and medications) that are produced during metabolic processes in the body through a process known as biotransformation. More than 50 enzymes are involved in the breakdown and excretion of harmful substances. During the detoxification process, increased amounts of free radicals and aggressive oxygen species are produced. These, too, are converted into less harmful substances and broken down with the help of various substances, including antioxidants. Alcohol is one of the substances that places a significant strain on the liver. Small amounts can usually be broken down without problems. However, with regular, increased alcohol consumption, the liver becomes increasingly damaged. It is estimated that around 30 to 50 percent of all liver diseases are caused by alcohol abuse.

Metabolic processes in the liver require a lot of oxygen and generate heat. Unlike other organs, the liver adapts to increased or decreased oxygen demand by changing oxygen uptake from the blood, rather than by changing the amount of blood flow. The liver's diverse functions are performed by all liver cells, and their capacity to perform these tasks is extraordinarily large. Because the liver has a special ability to regenerate, it can cope with acute and chronic damage relatively well.

TurmericTurmeric, often referred to as turmeric, is an important spice plant and the main ingredient in curry powder. It is not only excellent for seasoning dishes but also known as a versatile medicinal herb.

ThedandelionIn Central Europe, it is a common wild herb found in meadows, roadsides, and gardens. Dandelion's main active ingredients are bitter compounds and antioxidants (phenols). Dandelion was used in folk medicine for stomach and liver complaints as early as the 16th century.

TheBitter melonis a tropical plant species from the gourd family. The vegetable fruits of the bitter melon have been a popular food and medicinal plant for centuries in many countries, especially in Asia. Pregnant women are advised against its use, as some ingredients can have teratogenic effects.

TheartichokeOriginates primarily from Europe. The flower heads, harvested before flowering, are commonly used as a vegetable. The fleshy receptacle (the "artichoke heart") is considered a particularly delicacy. In herbal medicine, the fresh or dried, whole or chopped leaves of the artichoke are used.
