The liver helps detox your body from impurities by cleansing your blood according to Western Medicine.

In acupuncture and Chinese medicine, the liver spreads energy (Qi) stores blood and is important in women's menstrual cycle, helps digestion and deals with emotions of anger.

At Tree of Life Acupuncture clinic in Union Square, NYC, we offer a number of holistic, natural therapies to help your liver, health and immune system, see links below.
The human liver can regenerate itself from as little as 25% of tissue. 

The liver has a connection to its paired yang organ gallbladder, which can often affect other organs like the heart, large intestine and even kidneys, through the acupuncture network of meridians.

The unbalanced liver can be a source of high blood pressure, insomnia, heart problems, reproductive problems, PMS and fertility in women, headaches/ migraines, body toxicity, allergies depression, and anxiety.  

The liver and gallbladder open into the eyes and often affect eyesight. They also affect the nails. Brittle nails could be a sign of poor liver function or deficiency of the blood. Pink nails and tongue indicate healthy liver and smooth flow of energy in the body.

THINGS BAD for the LIVER.
Alcohol, anger, stress, greasy, fried foods, drugs, toxins (food, environmental).  








SELF HELP TIP: drink a glass of water with a squeeze of lemon or apple cider vinegar (1 to 2 tablespoons)  on an empty stomach 30 mon before food to help detox the liver. The sour taste is associated with the liver and gall bladder
* Green foods like broccoli, avocados can also help the liver functioning
Be well,
