#Gallbladder and liver - two closely connected organs

Our two organs - the gallbladder and liver form a complex system that has various tasks in our body.

Caring for these two organs may include taking herbs to support the gallbladder and liver, which is exactly what we'll discuss in this article.

To start, we'll do a quick review of the two closely connected organs to better understand their function in the body. Then we'll discuss herbs for gallbladder and liver health and several supplements that we can add to our wellness routine to maintain these important organs.

  • The gallbladder and liver

Over 500 vital functions have been identified with the liver.

Therefore, we must not forget that our liver and gallbladder have important work and work hard every day.

  • How exactly are the two organs connected?

The liver, about the size of a football, is located on our right side under the ribcage. Meanwhile, the gallbladder is smaller (about the size of a pear) and is located under the liver.

One of the tasks of the liver is to produce bile (digestive fluid), which then moves to the gallbladder where it is held before being released into our small intestines.

To summarize, we can say that the two organs help our body digest food, regulate chemical levels in our blood and get rid of toxins.

Although they work together, the body can function without the gallbladder, so sometimes it is removed.

With these things in mind, we will discuss herbs and natural treatments that maintain gallbladder and liver health, as they are so closely connected.
