The liver is an essential organ in the human body — are you doing everything you can to keep it healthy?
Our liver is the second largest organ in our body after the skin. Located on the upper right side of the abdomen, the liver is responsible for a variety of functions, including filtering our blood, creating digestive hormones and bile, and storing vitamins, minerals, and energy reserves for later use. Because of its many important roles in maintaining optimal health, finding ways to maintain a healthy liver is becoming a top priority.
Our liver is the second largest organ in our body after the skin, it is located on the upper right side of the abdomen, just below the diaphragm. The main roles of the liver include; removing toxins from the body, processing nutrients, regulating body metabolism, producing bile for digestion and filtering substances such as medications and alcohol. Due to the many functions of the liver it is therefore essential to make liver health a top priority.
The importance of taking care of your liver
As our body’s main filtration system, our liver is responsible for removing toxins and waste that build up in our bloodstream. When the liver is functioning properly it is able to filter the constant demand of blood to be filtered (which can be up to 1.4 L of blood a minute!)
Because our liver is so important, it can become very apparent when it is not functioning at top capacity. Symptoms of sub-optimal liver function include itchy skin, chronic fatigue, abdominal pain, and eventual nausea and vomiting. In order to avoid these less than pleasant symptoms, taking care of your liver by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and taking liver supporting supplements like milk thistle can be incredibly beneficial.
Symptoms include; Jaundice (yellowing of skin and whites of eye), dark urine, abdominal pain, and potential nausea and vomiting.

Milk thistle (more commonly known as St Mary’s Thistle), is a flowering herb that was commonly used in Western herbal medicine as a liver tonic. Commonly consumed as tea or eaten on it’s own, this plant has been used to support liver function for thousands of years. With supporting the liver’s filtration and detoxification process in mind, we created our Liver Care supplement as an excellent option for anyone looking for ways to improve the health and function of their liver.
Our Liver Care Milk Thistle 1300mg is one of the best ways to support healthy liver function. Silybum marianum also known as Milk Thistle or St Mary’s Thistle, is a flowering herb that was commonly used in Western herbal medicine for its liver protecting properties. This herb is a potent antioxidant filled with constituents known as flavonoids. Flavonoids are responsible for the herb's effect on the livers function and processes. Studies have demonstrated that Milk Thistle can alter liver cell membranes and therefore prevent toxins from passing through the cells to help prevent cell and liver damage. Milk Thistle, tones, improves and strengthens liver function and therefore demonstrates why it has been labelled as a powerful liver herb. That’s why ANC’s Liver Care Milk Thistle 1300mg is an excellent option for anyone looking for ways to improve the health and function of their liver.
