The liver has functional roles such as synthesizing bile, promoting metabolism, and synthesizing various proteins and enzymes.
1. Synthesize bile: The liver converts direct bilirubin into indirect bilirubin through liver cells, synthesizes bile needed by the body, and discharges it outside the body to emulsify fats and other foods.
2. Promote metabolism: a large number of drugs and foods in the body are metabolized through the liver function, if the liver function is abnormal, resulting in abnormal metabolic function of the body.
3. Synthesize various proteins and enzymes: the liver can synthesize various proteins and enzymes such as hormones, etc., which are secreted to various organs and parts of the body to replenish the energy needed by the body and promote the digestive function of the body.
