Many people in Taiwan work under great pressure and stay up late to work overtime is not a new thing, and many even study and take licenses after work to improve their competitiveness, resulting in lack of sleep and poor mental health, which will definitely damage the liver in the long run. The year-end is approaching, the work on the annual review, next year’s planning, life on the social entertainment, food, drinking alcohol are not restrained, will make the liver burden increased.
Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee said that the so-called “liver” in Chinese medicine has a broader scope than in Western medicine, including not only the liver, but also the brain and nerve system. “The liver is the hub of the body, a necessary process for transforming external nutrients into internal nutrients,” he said. So, if you are healthy, you can tell by looking at your liver.
The liver is located in the upper right abdomen of the body and is responsible for the body’s digestion, metabolism, synthesis and detoxification functions. Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee said that the five senses represent the five organs of the human body, the eyes represent the liver, the ears represent the kidneys, the nose represents the lungs, the mouth represents the spleen and stomach, and the tongue represents the heart. The liver itself is the mechanism for the metabolic function, absorbing the good nutrients into the body and expelling the bad toxins, so that people will be refreshed and energized. The liver is responsible for transforming external food into nutrients, so to protect the health of the liver, we must pay attention to the intake of nutrients.
Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee emphasizes the importance of a normal life and rest! He believes that in order to have a healthy body, the first priority is to nourish the liver; it is necessary to get enough sleep, enhance the autoimmune system, maintain exercise, and have three balanced meals so that nutrition can be converted into energy. The liver is the mirror of the body. Any food that comes into our mouths is transformed by the spleen and stomach into qi and blood that can be absorbed and used by the body, and then the blood is “hidden” in the liver to provide nutrients to the body’s nervous system and organs.
The liver is closely related to the health of the body. If you feel uncomfortable, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee, a Chinese medicine practitioner, said that you can use herbs to nourish the liver, which can enhance the function and effectiveness of the liver, enhance metabolism, improve chronic fatigue, promote a rosy and elastic appearance, and assist in the activation of liver cells.

According to a study conducted by the University of Southern California, liver nourishing Chinese herbs have been proven to be effective in preventing liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, and they can bring about a transformation of the stellate cells in the liver, making the therapeutic effect of Chinese herbs recognized by Western medicine. Dr. Lee once treated a case of a pregnant woman whose first baby was born with poor hematopoietic function and had to have a blood transfusion. When she was pregnant with her second child, she started taking herbs for liver health during pregnancy, and not only did her pregnancy go smoothly, but her baby was also healthy.
A healthy liver gives you the energy you need to live life to the fullest!
