Whether the liver is good or not depends on the 'prophet' of the stomach. If there are these 5 kinds of 'abnormalities' in the abdomen, beware that the liver is 'calling for help'
World HepatitisDay# Every July 28th is World Hepatitis Day. The liver is a very important organ of the human body. It not only stores glycogen, various vitamins, minerals, etc., but also decomposes toxins brought by the food and drugs that are ingested into the body. Therefore, the liver needs to be cleaned regularly. Hepatitis refers to the inflammation of liver cells and a large number of death, resulting in the decline or even loss of liver detoxification, metabolism and other functions. Of course, hepatitis is not a sudden disease, but is caused by people's many bad habits, among which the most damaging to the liver is staying up late.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that 1 am to 3 am is the time when the liver meridian runs, so it is recommended to go to bed and rest before 11 pm so that the liver meridian can function normally. However, due to changes in work and living habits of modern people, especially young people, few people go to bed before 11 o'clock, and the liver is in a working state for a long time. Over time, functions such as detoxification and metabolism decline or even become abnormal, causing liver disease, hepatitis, etc. even carcinogenic. Of course, liver disease and hepatitis are not sudden diseases, but chronic ones, and the liver often warns us before the onset of the disease.

Some people never drink alcohol, but beer belly is uninvited, which may also be a manifestation of liver dysfunction.
