Your liver is your life.
You only have one and though it is unique in its ability to regenerate, it can only survive limited damage - so it does need looking after.
The liver is the largest gland, and solid organ in the body, weighing some 1.8 kg in men and 1.3 kg in women. It holds approximately 13% (about one pint or 0.57 litres) of the total blood supply at any given moment, and it is estimated that it has over 500 functions.
