Your baby can’t tell you what’s wrong, but sometimes their body is trying to.

Biliary atresia is a rare but serious liver condition that can appear in the first few weeks of life. Early diagnosis and treatment are key to improving outcomes and avoiding serious liver damage. Knowing what to watch for could make all the difference.

Early signs may include jaundice, pale stools, dark urine, swollen belly, and poor growth, often within the first few weeks of life.

Visit liver.ca to learn more about the signs and symptoms of biliary atresia and how to protect your baby’s liver health.

Liver disease doesn’t just affect adults. Liver disease can develop in the earliest stages of life, even in newborn babies.

Both genetics and lifestyle factors can play a role in childhood liver disease. That’s why it’s important to be aware of the signs and symptoms and take early action if you notice them in your child.

Here's what to look out for:
➡️ Jaundice or yellowing of the eyes or skin
➡️ Swollen abdomen
➡️ Pale coloured stools
➡️ Dark urine
➡️ Easy bruising or bleeding

Ever wonder what gives your body its superhero strength to fight off germs and infections? ⚔️ Your liver plays a major role in keeping your immune system strong and ready to defend against harm!

From filtering out toxins to helping fight infections, your liver is a key player in your body’s natural defense system. It produces important proteins that assist in germ fighting, supports immune cell activity, and even helps regulate inflammation.

Keeping your liver healthy means giving your immune system the support it needs to protect you every single day.

It’s World Hepatitis Testing Week which is the perfect reminder to check in on your liver health and take charge of your well-being.

Hepatitis B and C, like many other liver diseases, often show no symptoms until serious liver damage has already occurred. That’s why many people don’t even know they’re infected.

If you think you may be at risk for hepatitis B or C, talk to your doctor about getting tested. Early detection leads to better treatment and health outcomes.

Learn more about hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and their risk factors at liver.ca.

“For the first time in 18 years, my liver enzymes are in the normal range. My liver is healing, and so is my hope.”

Imagine having major surgery… only to discover the real problem was something else entirely. That’s Catherine’s story. For many years, her bloodwork showed elevated liver enzymes, but they were never high enough to cause concern. Until one day after her gallbladder was removed, she endured what felt like another gallstone attack.

Bloodwork showed that her liver enzymes were now alarmingly high – and they kept climbing – setting in motion a diagnosis of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a silent, rare autoimmune disease.

No one should have to wait decades for answers or face the fear and isolation of a diagnosis that few understand. Together, we can regenerate hope.
