For most, seeing liver on your plate imparts immediate disinterest. But the liver is one of the most interesting organs of the human body. This amazing organ weighs about 3 pounds and is the second largest organ in the body, second only to skin (yes your skin is actually an organ!). The liver is also the only organ in the body that can actually regenerate itself. This is good news because the liver takes a beating every single day, working hard to protect us from the many toxins we are exposed to on a daily basis. A healthy life undoubtedly depends on a healthy liver!
