Tips to Keep Your Liver Healthy

Dr. Michael Millis, a liver expert, says that detox diets don’t really help fight liver cancer. The best way to care for your liver is by living a healthy lifestyle.
Fun Fact!
Your liver is like a superhero—it can repair itself when it gets hurt! But it needs your help by making healthy choices.
