the cholesterol in their system is produced by the liver. If the liver is
not producing the exact amount needed you might have High cholesterol or
imbalanced cholesterol. Low Hdl or Low cholesterol indicates a weak liver
or possible liver disease.
Triglycerides are a byproduct
of poor digestion, due to the liver therefore, blood clots are also
usually caused by a liver which is sluggish. Remember a clot to the heart
causes a heart attack and one to the brain causes a stroke. So heart
attacks and strokes are often liver based.

allergies can be linked directly to the liver.
Liver is involved in
digestion. If your liver is not digesting you might experience
Bloating or gassiness
Flatulence more than
once a week.
The liver helps regulate
blood sugar levels along with the pancreas and adrenals.

liver is not balancing blood sugar levels are: Getting either shaky,
weak, grouchy or aggressive if you skip a meal
Abnormal appetite.
Feeling like taking a
nap after you have eaten a large meal.
If you wake up during
the night to urinate or look at the clock or any reason, the liver is
probably releasing a little bit of sugar when it detoxifies.
The liver also regulates how
the body gets rid of toxins. The favorite eliminating system is through
the skin. Often people will develop rashes, psoriasis, eczema, boils or
acne if the liver is putting the toxins out through the skin.
Moles and skin tag are a symptom the liver is
sluggish.
It is also the liver's job to
release what stimulates the bowels to empty. If you have less than 1 bowel
movement for every meal that you eat, the liver might be sluggish.

and Iron so therefore can affect red blood cells.

pro-D Vitamin, which when you are in the sun turns into vitamin D and a
tan. A deficiency in any of these Vitamins could indicate a weak liver
