Liver the single largest internal organ in the human body, works day and night to filter out the toxins from our body. If the liver function slows down, then toxicity will build in the body eventually breaking down the human system. However, there are certain substances which are toxic to the liver itself and they are called hepatotoxic agents. The common hepatotoxic agents include ethanol, paracetamol, carbon tetrachloride, heavy metals, ochratoxins, hexachlorocyclohexane, antitubercular drugs etc. These agents are present in your everyday food and also in the medicines you take for common cold to serious diseases. Research article published in the food and function journal titled “Hepatoprotective properties of the Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn)” concludes that the Indian Gooseberry or Amla has Hepatoprotective properties meaning it protects the human liver from the above hepatotoxic agents.
