The human body has many organs, the heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney.
If the stomach is the most squeamish,
If you feel a little uncomfortable, you have to show us the color.
Then the liver is the most sensible one,
Because there are no nerve endings on the liver,
so it doesn’t hurt.
In this way, the liver works diligently every day,
Don’t tell us when it hurts,
Until it can’t bear it…
But then it was too late.
3 major red flags of a bad liver
Redness of the palms, red moles on the skin
Redness of the palms is medically called the palm of the liver and often occurs On both sides of the palm, the blood color of the palm becomes uneven, and there is patchy bleeding at the thenar area at the base of the thumb and little finger;

The liver is not good, eat less and never touch it
You should eat less white sugar, white fat, and white wine
Sugar:
The liver is an important organ of digestion and metabolism in the human body. 90% of the food and drugs we eat are metabolized by the liver. A long-term high-sugar diet will increase the burden on the liver, thereby increasing the risk of fatty liver disease.
What’s even scarier is that high fructose syrup is now used in many products, which contains a lot of fructose, which is more powerful than white sugar. Studies have shown that high intake of added fructose can cause fatty liver, liver cirrhosis and other diseases.
Fatty meat:
Fatty meat is higher in triglycerides and fat than regular meat. Excessive intake of fat is deposited in the liver, which will hinder the synthesis of hepatic glycogen, increase the burden on the liver, lead to a decrease in the rate of liver metabolism, and also reduce the rate of fat metabolism, which may easily induce fatty liver, liver cirrhosis and other problems.
Alcohol:
Alcohol is “poison” to the liver. 90% of alcohol is catabolized by the liver. Drinking one tael of white wine will keep the liver busy for 4-6 hours. If you drink three taels of white wine, the liver will not be able to completely decompose and excrete the alcohol after working hard for a week.
Unprotected, one heavy drink is equivalent to one episode of mild acute hepatitis. Long-term excessive drinking can lead to alcoholic liver disease, and lay the root cause of liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Never touch moldy food
Moldy food will produce aflatoxin, which is a clear carcinogen that can cause liver cancer. Improperly stored corn, peanuts, wolfberry and other foods will produce aflatoxin, which cannot be destroyed even by boiling.
In addition, hepatitis virus and aflatoxin have a synergistic effect, that is, hepatitis patients who eat more Aspergillus flavus are more susceptible to liver cancer.
