The Liver, Fats And Cholesterol

Your liver also repackages the fat you eat into a variety of compounds called lipoproteins.

You may have heard of 'bad cholesterol' and 'good cholesterol', although to a certain extent these are misnomers. In actual fact what is being spoken of is these very much larger molecular complexes called lipoproteins.

The cholesterol is carried in these lipoproteins and there are some (the 'bad' ones or LLDs) that carry cholesterol to the tissue (some of this is needed, but too much can be bad) and the others (called the 'good' ones or HDLs) that carry cholesterol from your tissues and get it out of your body via the gall bladder.

Your liver both makes some of these proteins and repackages the cholesterol/lipoprotein complexes from one type to the other, and if it fails to do this then the LDLs, the 'bad' cholesterol-laden lipoproteins, accumulate and your heart and blood vessels are at risk.

Let's just take a moment to consider cholesterol.

It has had an amazingly bad press for a substance that is needed by every single tissue in the body.

It is needed for the walls of every cell in every tissue. It is needed to make bile so you can digest and absorb fats, and for the synthesis of vitamin D so you can have strong bones. You need it to make your sex hormones - without it where would the fun be? - and to make the cortisone-type hormones that are important for both your immune system and for handling stress.

You also need cholesterol, in very significant amounts, for all your nerve cells and for your brain. In fact brain is the richest source of cholesterol on the menu, containing up to four times as much as an equal weight of eggs; and it is there because it is needed.

Without cholesterol you would have indigestion and a bad liver, you couldn't handle stress or any infections, you would be a sexless, nerveless wimp with a faulty brain and no backbone, so the fact that all your cells would fall apart, leaving you a gelatinous splodge, would hardly matter.

It is up to your liver to ensure that the cholesterol you eat, and the cholesterol you make within your own body, perform these beneficial roles and do not get diverted into harmful activities.

It is also the liver's responsibility to break down excess amounts of these various compounds when they have done their job.

About the Liver - Part 2

A healthy liver is essential for the proper synthesis of the correct amount of cholesterol for making good any shortfall in your diet. It is also important in that it ensures the proper transport of cholesterol through your blood to the tissues where it is needed and from the tissues where it is not needed and could be a problem.

This also means that your liver plays a significant role in the build-up of cholesterol-laden atheromas that can block your arteries and lead to heart attacks and related problems.


The Liver And Energy

Another role played by the liver is that it stores glycogen, partly for its own use, but also to be able to break it down and thus release the stored glucose into the bloodstream, either when your blood sugar level falls below normal or when extra demands are made for energy, such as under stress. Hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar level) can lead to many different and varied symptoms including fatigue, shakiness, headaches, mood swings, irritability, sugar cravings and eating binges.
