Ayurveda and The liver
The liver, according to Ayurveda, is the seat of pitta dosha. Different types of enzymes carry out metabolism and digestion in the body, which are referred to as ‘ agni ’ and ‘ pitta ’. The liver is the only organ that can regenerate itself, and it is also the body's biggest glandular organ. It is sometimes known as the " engine of the body " and plays several vital roles in digestion, metabolism, and detoxification. Some factors and items can prove to be extremely detrimental and toxic to the liver, such as alcohol, caffeine, cigarettes, extremely spicy foods, emotions such as rage and hatred, chemicals in pre-packaged meals or medications. Even vata and kapha kinds of liver imbalances tend to worsen pitta and cause toxic build-up in it, thus impairing its function. Keeping an eye out for these sorts of imbalances and treating them early on, naturally helps to maintain the liver's health. Here are a few tips and practices on how to maintain a healthy liver.
