Your liver is the second largest organ, and the first largest internal organ.

It creates clotting factors for your blood, gets rid of toxins, creates bile for digestion, breaks down carbohydrates, amino acids and lipids, and plays a vital role in metabolism and heat generation. Not to mention, the hundreds, if not thousands of other functions.

Without a liver, a person would die due to toxicity.
