    In this special presentation of Be HEALTHistic, naturopathic physician Dr. Drew Sinatra welcomes his Healthy Directions colleague, internist Dr. Ken Redcross, to discuss one of the body's most important yet neglected organs — the liver. The liver works by both filtering and neutralizing toxins so they can be removed from the body. It is constantly working to break down not only environmental toxins that we encounter, but also toxins that we are exposed to daily, such as those in the food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink and the medications we take. The liver has a lot to do in our bodies and it's important to keep it healthy; today, the doctors discuss this vital organ and provide tips for keeping it in optimal shape. First, the doctors discuss how the liver functions in the body and signs they look for that could suggest liver issues. They talk about detoxification and the role the liver plays in filtering out tons of different environmental toxins. Then, the doctors do a deep dive on fatty liver disease — what it is, why it's on the rise and how alcohol comes into play. They also discuss the impact of diet and give suggestions for healthy meal plans for weight loss. Next, the doctors talk about fasting and exercise, and how both can positively impact a fatty liver. They also discuss cholesterol and triglyceride levels and why those metrics are informative. Finally, the doctors share some nutrient strategies for liver support and suggest natural supplements to help keep the liver strong. Don't miss this informative episode of Be HEALTHistic!
