Your Liver Can Regenerate Itself From 25% (Only Organ That Can)

Описание: Your liver is the only human organ that can completely regenerate itself. Surgeons can remove 75% of your liver, and it will grow back to full size within weeks.

The science of liver regeneration:
🔬 Remains of liver detect mass loss
🔬 Hepatocytes (liver cells) start dividing rapidly
🔬 Grows back to FULL SIZE in 8-15 days in mice, 3-6 months in humans
🔬 Stops growing at exactly the right size

This is why living liver donation works - a donor can give half their liver to a patient, and BOTH people end up with full-sized, functioning livers within months.

The liver is the largest internal organ and performs over 500 functions including:
✅ Filters toxins from blood
✅ Produces bile for digestion
✅ Stores vitamins and minerals
✅ Regulates blood sugar
✅ Produces blood-clotting proteins

The ancient Greeks knew about this - the myth of Prometheus being punished by having his liver eaten daily by an eagle, only to have it regenerate overnight.

Modern medicine uses this for liver transplants, cancer treatment, and trauma recovery.

Your liver is literally superhuman.
