returning blood from the digestive system and the lower part of the
body to the heart makes the liver an important organ for the health
of the heart.
A weakened and swollen or congested liver can
obstruct the venous blood flow to the heart causing heart
palpitations or even heart attacks . In other
words a healthy liver is essential for maintaining an adequate
amount of blood flow to the heart and the heart can only pump the
blood it receives.

Age-related vision and memory loss: the importance of the
liver
According to the Chinese, the liver and kidneys are the organs
that "age" us. That is why almost all longevity herbs used in
Chinese medicine are liver and kidney tonics. Without a clean,
efficient liver and healthy kidneys, blood is not filtered clean.
"Dirty" blood, loaded with toxins or waste products, is heavier and
more sluggish. This causes poor circulation and reduced capacity to
carry oxygen and nutrients. As a result, tissue and organ cells are
undernourished. If this condition persists the cells will
deteriorate and inevitably age. The eye and brain cells are
especially affected because the blood has to flow against gravity
to reach them. In an article on Alzheimer disease in the January
1988 issue of the Mayo Clinic Health Letter, malfunction of the
liver and kidneys was mentioned as one of the causes leading to
Alzheimer disease. Brain tumour, which physically blocks blood flow
to the brain, was also cited as one of the causes.
The brain is only 2% of our body weight, yet it needs 20% of our
oxygen supply. If the toxin-loaded blood from a weak liver has
limited capacity to carry oxygen, the brain cells are affected
most.
I was born with a photographic memory, but I lost it at the age
of 17. Up to the age of 16, I could remember every single word in
textbooks that I glanced through just once. I was surprised to
learn that I could not do that any more before I finished my high
school. Looking back, my very stressful childhood must have
congested my liver and my inadequately filtered blood had
difficulty flowing up to my brain to nourish my cells. The fact
that I fainted in school at the age of 11 indicated that my blood
flow to my brain was already sluggish even at an early age. As the
years went by with stressful life, my memory kept going down hill
and reached the bottom at age 47, the year that I was diagnosed
with badly congested liver. When I cleansed out my liver and
gallbladder, changed my diet and started doing daily morning
exercise, my memory improved. I don't think I will get my
photographic memory back, but I did gain back some of my memory
power and stopped its deterioration.
