Liver Diseases, Transplant - Myths & Facts

"Only alcohol damages the liver."

As a healthcare facilitating company, people often send us their concerns and queries about liver health. And majority of the times they are myths. Even from educated people. And that's why it becomes imperative to conduct webinars to educate people on liver health - a vital organ in human body, next important to heart.

The liver serves many critical functions including metabolism of drugs and toxins, removing degradation products of normal body metabolism and synthesis of many important proteins and enzymes. In short, the liver is essential for digesting food and ridding your body of toxic substances.

But alike other organs, even this organ is prone to failure. And multiple factors cause the failure right from lifestyle abuse to genetics, infections and immune system abnormality.

On primary stages of liver diseases, physicians treat it with lifestyle changes and medications. But there are stages, transplantation is the only cure for liver insufficiency or liver failure because no device or machine reliably performs all the functions of the liver.
