“Detox” has become one of the most abused words in health.
Juice cleanses promise it. Supplements claim to support it. Social media tells us certain foods can “flush toxins” from the body.
But your body already has an extraordinarily sophisticated chemical-processing system and the liver sits at the center of it.
In Episode 8 of Inside Your Biology, we investigate what the liver actually does with alcohol, medications, nutrients, hormones, fats, and potentially harmful compounds.
We explore liver metabolism, detoxification enzymes, bile, glycogen, cholesterol, ammonia, fatty liver disease, alcohol metabolism, drug interactions, and what happens when this organ begins accumulating fat or losing function.
And we ask the question behind one of wellness culture’s biggest claims:
If the liver already detoxifies the body, can anything really “detox” the liver itself?
