Good health starts with a healthy liver

Your liver is a miracle worker: It purifies, detoxifies, and even regenerates. So when your liver is in distress, your overall health can be in serious trouble. Dr. Howard J.

From symptoms and diagnoses to breakthrough treatments and nutrition, The Liver Disorders and Hepatitis Sourcebook explains everything you need to know, including:

  • The A, B, C, D, and Es of viral hepatitis: How to treat and prevent the acute and chronic forms of each
  • Acetaminophen and your liver: Avoiding the risks of commonly prescribed and over-the-counter medications
  • Cirrhosis: Why it's not just an alcohol-related disease
  • Herbal remedies and liver-cleansing diets: Why they don't work and why you should avoid them
