Yeast and Liver Detoxification


The liver is an important organ of our body as it performs a wide range of functions such as detoxification, production of enzymes necessary for digestion and synthesis of protein. The liver has a reddish brown colour and has four lobes of unequal size. Liver is considered to be the largest gland of our body as well as the largest internal organ. Also it is the only internal organ which is capable of regenerating itself naturally. Even 25 % of regenerated liver can form a whole liver. Many organs of our body are supported by liver and this also accounts for the liver being so vulnerable to many diseases. Liver helps in the mainstay of protein metabolism as well as lipid metabolism. In a foetus liver is the site where production of red blood cells takes place.

Liver diseases are also known with another name which is hepatic diseases. A majority of hepatic diseases are accompanied by jaundice which is mostly caused by the consumption of contaminated water. Liver is a sensitive organ and therefore it is very important to take its care. Liver cleansing or liver detoxification is one of the ways to keep our liver functioning in a proper manner and ensuring its longevity. One of the natural ways to deal with liver detoxification is to have nutritional yeast which is full of fifteen kinds of minerals and eighteen kinds of amino acids. In addition to this nutritional yeast also contains vitamin B which is extremely necessary for the process of liver detoxification. People should not confuse this yeast with the yeast used in breweries for fermentation which is very bitter to taste.


Yeast are microorganisms which divide themselves through binary fission. Binary fission is a process in which a single cell divides itself in to two which further develops into full fledged micro organism. A sub species of yeast called Candida albicans causes candida or a kind of yeast infection which is a very common form of disease in the reproductory system of both the sexes. Candidiasis can be manifested in the form of vaginal irritation in females. If immediate action is not taken candidiasis takes no time in turning itself into a life threatening disease. Candidiasis is easy to treat as it can be overcome by following simple measures at home itself. One just has to type yeast infection natural remedy in Google search bar and a long list of home remedies for this list is available. Yeasts have a positive side as well as since bygone eras yeast has been in use for fermenting bread and other bakery products. The traditional breweries could not be maintained without yeast which helped in fermentation.
