What is Essential Functions of the Liver about?

The liver performs over 500 essential functions including digestion, detoxification, protein production, and energy storage. It is located on the right side under the ribs and weighs about 2-3 pounds in adults. While the liver can withstand damage, continuous injury or inflammation can prevent it from repairing itself. Blood tests of liver enzymes and proteins help evaluate liver function and damage, though a biopsy provides the most accurate assessment.
