The function of bile secretion, the cells of the liver secrete about 600-800ml of bile every day, which is discharged into the gallbladder for concentration. After eating, it is emptied into the intestine to participate in the digestion of important substances such as fat, and also plays an important role in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
Of course, the liver also has the function of metabolism. Nutrients digested and absorbed from the intestine, such as fat, amino acids and sugar, return to the liver through the portal vein for metabolism and transformation.
Hepatocytes also participate in coagulation function, and important vitamins and coagulation factors are synthesized and stored in the liver.
In recent years, due to improper eating habits and bad work and rest habits, the outbreak rate of liver disease has risen sharply. Doctors often say that the stomach is a trumpet and the liver is dumb.
The liver is a dumb organ, which is easy to be ignored, because it is in the upper abdominal cavity of human body, hidden under the deep surface of the right diaphragm and costal season, and its left lateral lobe passes through the midline of the abdomen and reaches the left upper abdomen.
It has no digestive tract problems, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea and other signals; Unlike the lungs, there will be symptoms such as cough; Unlike the thyroid gland, you can see the neck swelling when you look in the mirror; Unlike breasts, you can feel something strange through self-examination. ...
If these phenomena appear in your body, it means that you need to raise your liver.
First, people with bad liver qi are irritable, irritable, prone to insomnia and dreaminess, and easy to wake up after shallow sleep.
The reason is that liver cells are damaged, which may lead to the increase of serum transaminase and the decrease of alkaline phosphatase, showing fatigue, lethargy and fatigue.
Second, due to the dysfunction of the liver in hormone metabolism, men may have telangiectasia, red nose, increased acne, yellow or black face and red palms.
When there is a problem with the liver, there will be a special lesion in the palm, which is called the liver palm. There are red spots and plaques in thenar area of thumb and little finger of liver palm, which can be inferred as chronic liver disease.
Third: when hepatitis attacks, there will be low fever, swelling and pain in the liver area, yellowing of the skin, eyes or urine.
Wu, the "father of liver disease", summed up 60 years' experience in protecting the liver: Doing three things well is still good for the liver.
In 1950s, liver surgery was regarded as a "forbidden area" with a low success rate. The research on prevention and treatment of liver cancer in China is even blank.
Under the guidance of teacher Qiu Fazu, Wu, who was already a surgeon at that time, chose to study hepatobiliary surgery.
A Japanese medical delegation visited China, and one of the professors proudly said, "It will take at least twenty or thirty years for China's liver surgery to catch up with our level."
Wu was greatly stimulated by his assertion, and he felt a strong sense of mission, which made the young Wu determined to March into the field of liver surgery more firmly.
Academician Wu: Summarizing 60 years' experience in nourishing liver, three things are widely circulated.
First: a nutritious diet.
As the largest detoxification organ in the body, the daily task of the liver is very important, so the relationship between the liver and diet in life is also very close.
Incorrect diet may bring sub-health to the body, and the liver is no exception. To protect the liver, we must treat eating habits correctly, supplement a variety of nutrients, and make the liver work normally!
Like some green foods in life, vitamin E and B vitamins are nutrients that the liver needs!
Second: keep exercising.
Insisting on exercise can relieve people's troubles, depressed emotions and common anger, and can also achieve the purpose of doing this work through exercise.
Academician Wu once said: When doing sports, don't blindly follow the trend, follow others, choose sports that suit you, and increase the amount of exercise according to your physical quality and condition.
Third: vaccination against hepatitis.
In order to protect the health of the liver, we should not only control diet, exercise and drugs, but also protect the liver from viruses. There are many kinds of hepatitis viruses, the most common are hepatitis A and hepatitis B virus.
Therefore, in order to protect the health of the liver, we should pay attention to reducing the risk of hepatitis B virus infection as much as possible, and injecting hepatitis B vaccine is an effective preventive measure.
Conclusion:
Wu likes the famous medical scientist Qiu Fazu's famous saying: He who doesn't approach the Buddha can't be a doctor.
In another interview, the old man wrote this line without thinking with a deformed finger holding a pen: "Be a good doctor and serve the people wholeheartedly." Knowing and doing are one, Wu Yisheng is practicing this sentence!
