Description

  • Your liver handles over 500 essential functions, including detoxification, hormone balance, metabolism, bile production, and immune regulation
  • As you age, your liver’s ability to regenerate slows down, making it more vulnerable to damage from metabolic stress, toxins, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies accumulated over time
  • Liver disease affects over 100 million Americans. It often develops silently, with many unaware until the damage becomes advanced and difficult to reverse
  • Industrial seed oils and alcohol overwhelm your liver with reactive aldehydes that damage mitochondria, impair detox pathways, and accelerate fat accumulation, inflammation, and cellular aging
  • Targeted dietary and lifestyle strategies, such as avoiding vegetable oils, eating choline-rich foods, improving sleep, managing stress, and staying physically active, help restore your liver function
