Do you like liver?
My liver is a big, brown, soft organ. It is located under my ribs on my right side. The liver does lots of things:
- It makes proteins.
- It stores energy.
- It makes sugar (glucose) to use as fuel when I am not eating.
- It removes waste products from my blood.
- It makes bile, which carries waste products into my intestine and helps me digest food.
Whew! My liver sure is important! Now do you like liver?
