functions every minute of every day to keep you alive; let’s take a look at the
most vital functions of the liver:
• Fat metabolism: This helps with your weight and cholesterol levels
• Detoxification and filtering of your blood: This helps your energy
level, plus ability to think and concentrate.
• Destruction of unhealthy cells and bacteria
• Manufacturing of essential proteins which are necessary for healthy
immune function

5. Viral Hepatitis
Indication
"Hepatitis" means inflammation of the
liver and also refers to a group of viral
infections that affect the liver . The
most common types are Hepatitis A,
Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. Viral
hepatitis is the leading cause of liver
cancer and the most common reason
for liver transplantation.
Hepatitis is most commonly caused by a viral infection. There are, however,
other causes of hepatitis. These include autoimmune hepatitis (a disease
occurring when the body makes antibodies against the liver tissue) and hepatitis
that occurs as a secondary result of medications, drugs, toxins and alcohol.
6. Sluggish liver
What causes a sluggish Liver?
• Excessive accumulation of fat within the liver cells due to alcoholism, obesity,
diabetes, drugs (like corticosteroids, tetracycline and aspirin) or elevated serum
triglyceride levels can lead to impeding liver function.
• Other cause for sluggish liver function is intrahepatic problems which occur due
to over exposure to food additives, solvents (cleaning materials, formaldehyde,
toluene, benzene, etc.), heavy metals (lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, nickel,
and aluminum), and other toxins.
• Viral infections of liver like hepatitis, inherited disorders like Gilbert's syndrome,
hyperthyroidism, consumption of anabolic steroids/synthetic oestrogens/oral
contraceptives are some other factors that can restrict the bile flow in the liver and
cause impaired liver function.
• Lack of physical activities, poor nutritious diet, aging, etc, are some other
common causes for sluggish liver function.
Indication
7. Loss of Appetite
A decreased appetite is when your desire to
eat is reduced. The medical term for a loss of
appetite is anorexia. Anorexia can be a
symptom of diseases such as cancer, AIDS,
and some neurological conditions. Without
treatment, anorexia and malnutrition can
hinder the treatment of underlying conditions
and lead to serious complications.
Indication
How is it treated:
A doctor will often attempt to treat the condition that is causing the anorexia. He or
she will focus on healing mouth sores or relieving pain, for example. Alleviating
depression can also help improve appetite. A doctor may also reduce or adjust
medications that might interfere with a patient’s appetite. And medications that
either stimulate appetite or help food move through the intestines may also be
prescribed.
8. Drug induces
Hepto-toxicity
Drugs are an important cause of liver
injury. More than 900 drugs, toxins, and
herbs have been reported to cause liver
injury, and drugs account for 20-40% of
all instances of fulminant hepatic failure.
Approximately 75% of the idiosyncratic
drug reactions result in liver
transplantation or death.
Indication
Drug-induced hepatic injury is the most common reason cited for withdrawal of
an approved drug. Physicians must be vigilant in identifying drug-related liver
injury because early detection can decrease the severity of hepatotoxicity if the
drug is discontinued. The manifestations of drug-induced hepatotoxicity are
highly variable, ranging from asymptomatic elevation of liver enzymes to
fulminant hepatic failure.
10. Jaundice
Jaundice occurs when there is an
abnormal build up of the bile pigment,
bilirubin in the blood. The skin, whites of
the eye, mucous membranes and bodily
fluids then take on a yellowish cast.
Jaundice can have many causes, from
benign (gallstones) to life threatening
(pancreatic cancer).
Diagnosis of the Disease
There are more than just a single way to
diagnose that what is causing jaundice.
The non-invasive methods of diagnosis for
jaundice include ultrasound computed
tomography, Laboratory and clinical
evaluations. The yellowing of the skin often
serves as the most common clue for the
doctors to use before confirming jaundice.
Indication
Yellowing is from accumulated bilirubin in the
skin, often caused by liver and gallbladder
disorders
