What does the liver help digest?

Answer 1

All the nutrients that are digested in the alimentary canal and absorbed into the blood, then go to the liver for further processing. Only water can be absorbed without further processing by the liver.

Answer 2

Well, your liver shouldn't have to digest food; food only passes through your mouth, your esophagus, stomach, duodenum, small intestine, large intestine, then is excreted from your body.

Although, your liver does break down food, with bile, AKA as gall. This is an essential part to break down the food's lipids. Without it, you couldn't take in food properly, and probably would die, if not treated. (This is why liver failure is so serious)

Answer 3

The liver digests natural sugars and acidic liquids aswell as butter or chelestrol in that matter

Answer 4

Digestion takes place in the stomach and small intestine. The liver is involved in the metabolism of nutrients, but not in their digestion.
