Liver

Liquid Filter

Function:

Have you ever seen a water filter before? It can help you get rid of unhealthy substances and produces something purer for you to use. That’s what our liver does! The liver cleans the blood and tries to get rid of any toxins. Those toxins inside the blood are very unhealthy for our body.

Did your parents ever tell you that you need to eat more vegetables so that you can keep yourself healthy and growing? That’s because vegetables contain so many healthy substances that we can use to build up our bodies. The liver plays an important role, but how? When we eat food, it will eventually be dissolved and absorbed by the blood. The liver filters the healthy stuff from the blood and saves it for your body to use.

Fun Fact:

10% of our liver is made up of fat.
