When we focus inward to the liver, ironically we can in fact de-age the skin, help keep off the weight, enhance nutrient processing to build muscles and so much more.. A healthy liver is the ultimate de-stressor, anti-aging ally and safeguard - if we look after it!

Did you know that fatty liver disease is now recognised as the most common cause of abnormal liver function test results in Australia. Around one in five people in the general population in Australia has a fatty liver. Luckily though, in most cases, fatty liver disease is reversible.

If you have any questions about fatty liver or about the treatments that are available, please contact The Liver Centre WA in Perth to make an appointment: 08 6163 2800.

With liver disease on the rise, it's fast becoming a very serious health problem. Many of us don't even realise we have it. Fatty Liver Disease is just one of the liver's 'silent' diseases and affects up to one third of all Australians. There is hope though. The good news is that fatty liver disease is 100% reversible if detected early enough.

There’s only one beverage that can detox your body of toxins.

Your body is built to naturally eliminate toxins, with water being the only substance that can speed this process up. By drinking enough water, you're supporting your natural detoxification process and avoiding restrictions that could result in problems in the long run.

Water is clearly the best beverage you can have to avoid chronic liver diseases, or for those suffering from it. Drinking a glass of water after waking up, before a meal, before physical activity, or while going to the bed will give you optimal hydration and keep your liver healthy 💦💧💦
