The liver is the largest organ in the body and plays a vital role in regulating life processes. Each year more than 25 million Americans are afflicted with liver and gall bladder diseases, and more than 27,000 die of cirrhosis. Experts believe that more than half of all liver diseases could be prevented.
Liver Disorders Sourcebook contains basic consumer health information about the liver, how it works, and how to keep it healthy through diet, vaccination, and other preventive care measures. Readers will learn about the symptoms and treatment options for such diseases as hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, Wilson's disease, hemochromatosis, liver failure, cancer of the liver, and disorders related to drugs and other toxins. Also included are a glossary and directories of support groups and additional resources.
