Alchohol and Liver Health

Its that time of the year, when excessive alcohol consumption gets the green light. As a society we've agreed that the holidays are a time of indulgence. But, unfortunately our bodies don't go on holiday. And, they will pay the price and take the brunt of our holiday indulgences. All is not lost, as mother nature has provided us with a great many herbs to help cleanse the body.

The Liver

The liver is a real workhorse, constantly filtering and neutralizing toxins, to keep the body safe from harmful substances like alcohol. The liver filters the blood at a rate of 1.5 liters per minute, an astounding volume and rate. When we drink, alcohol is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, so the liver is filtering alcohol at an equally fast rate. If the liver had only one function, its job would be easy. But, the liver is a complex organ responsible for hundreds of process and detoxing alcohol is only one of them.
The liver processes the alcohol and essentially removes it from the bloodstream. Alcohol is a poison and if it were not broken down and detoxified it would kill you. Each year there are a number of alcohol induced deaths, simply because people have consumed too much alcohol for their liver to process. I am not suggesting that you are in danger of alcohol poisoning this season. I just wanted to illustrate the point and remind you that alcohol is essentially a poison. Alcohol in moderation still compromises you liver, digestion and overall health.
But, there are a few things you can do to take care of your liver in a way that's easy to implement and will allow you to enjoy the holidays.
  1. Drink plenty of water - alcohol is dehydrating
  2. Avoid overeating - overeating and alcohol stresses the liver
  3. Take a B complex vitamin - these will help all systems function smoothly
  4. Use Probiotics - alcohol will upset your intestinal bacteria
  5. Support you liver with natural herbs - use Liver Rescue +4
