The liver is the body s largest internal organ. The size of a football, it lies just under your ribcage, on the right side. Its main job is to filter your blood and pass the detoxified blood to the rest of your body. In doing so, it produces bile and excretes all the toxic wastes from the body. Over time, your liver can become damaged and can lead to long-term (chronic) impairment.
