In 90%, the liver is sick. It happens that our liver has something to say , but it stubbornly remains silent , writes Dr. Andrey Laslau. And all because there are no nerve endings in it , through which a signal about pain enters our brain. Simply put , the liver does not hurt. Because of this, problems with it are often detected already in the later stages.
How to check the liver: Still, there are some symptoms that will help you suspect something is wrong:
1) Chronic fatigue.
The patient is overcome by weakness , apathy , loss of strength , he does not sleep well , becomes restless and sloppy. The reason is intoxication of the body. The liver , our main filter , cannot cope with the purification of the blood and the removal of toxins.
