A sugar-free liver tonic especially formulated for diabetics.
The liver plays a key role in metabolism. It has anabolic and catabolic, exocrine, and endocrine functions. The liver is a blood reservoir, filter, and store of different substances (e.g. glycogen, vitamins). It is the site of serum protein (e.g. albumin, prothrombin, fibrinogen) and enzyme synthesis. Metabolic processes (e.g. bilirubin, hormone, carbohydrate, and lipid turnover) and the removal of toxic products are important liver functions.
Hepatotoxins (e.g. alcohol, tetracycline, acetaminophen, fungal toxins, and anabolic steroids) can cause specific damage to liver cells. Toxic hepatitis may be clinically silent or severe enough to lead to the rapid development of hepatic failure. Clinical features include hepatomegaly, enzyme abnormalities, fever, abdominal pain, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss. In patients with underlying cirrhosis, manifestations of portal hypertension may predominate. Aversion to fatty food, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and vomiting after meals may be symptoms of cholelithiasis. Jaundice results from accumulation of bilirubin. It has non-hepatic as well as hepatic causes. Hyperbilirubinaemia may be due to abnormalities in the formation, transport, metabolism, or excretion of bilirubin.
AlphaTM-Liv Sugar-Free aids recovery and normalisation of liver functions in diabetics. Severe liver disease needs specialised treatment.
