Signs From The Body That Your Liver Is Overloaded

We all hear about this organ constantly, since many health disorders are directly or indirectly related to having an overloaded liver.

Why it happens? Because the liver is the great victim of poor diet, pollution, stress, negative emotions, etc.

In this article we help you know if your liver may be overloaded from some easy-to-detect signs.  

The liver affects the entire body

The liver is a vital organ related to the circulation of the whole organism, as well as to the purification of toxic substances. For this reason, if it does not work correctly, our body can suffer the consequences in different areas.

In this article we explain how liver function is reflected, for example, in the face, mouth, skin or hair.

Signs that your liver is overloaded

Wrinkles between the eyebrows

We have always considered that wrinkles are the result of aging, and that genetics is what conditions us to suffer them sooner or later.

However, wrinkles reveal the functioning of our body and can be very useful to prevent diseases.

This is the case, for example, of vertical wrinkles that appear between the eyebrows. These can be the sign that our liver is overloaded. The deeper they are, the more serious the condition.

In spring or autumn we can lose more hair than usual. However, there are people who suffer from it for long periods of time and for no apparent reason. To solve it, it is important to observe in which area we lose hair.

If the alopecia is located in the central part of the head or even begins to lighten, both in men and women, it would indicate a malfunction of several organs, including the liver.

Premature graying could also be putting the liver and gallbladder on the line.

Vision problems

According to traditional Chinese medicine, the liver directly conditions the blood flow to the eyes. For this reason, vision problems could be caused by a poor liver, among other reasons.

If the liver is not working well, the eyes may also lose their natural brightness, the pupils may have a whitish reflection, and a yellowish color may stain both the sclera and the area under the eyes.

Swollen gums and throat

Many people have swollen gums and they bleed easily when they brush their teeth. This issue is also related to the liver, as well as inflammation in the throat area.

Even if we use special toothpastes, if we do not improve liver function, we will not solve the sensitivity and inflammation of the gums and throat.

How are your stools?

Stool is also an indicator of health that we do not usually pay too much attention to. Here we tell you which ones could indicate a malfunction of the liver:

• Feces with strong and bitter odors and sticky texture, the result of poor digestion and subsequent fermentation of food.
• Hard and dry stools, in the form of balls, typical of constipation. They are also related to the liver.

• Diarrhea
• Pale or clay-colored stools.
• Floating stools, the result of the fat in food that has not been able to be well digested.
