LEBER FIT Complex

The liver - the "organ of emotions"

Do you know where the saying "A louse has run over someone's liver" comes from? The phrase comes from the Middle Ages, when the liver was considered the "organ of emotions". Back then, people simply asked "Has something run over your liver?" The louse was added later to give the matter something banal, in the sense of "What little thing are you angry about?" ...

This little story shows how important the liver was as an organ even in the Middle Ages.

The liver: energy supplier and detoxifier

The liver is no longer regarded as the "organ of emotions". Today, however, we know that the liver is the heaviest organ in the human body (approx. 1.5 kg) and plays the main role in our metabolism.

It functions like a chemical factory, breaking down, converting and building up substances - and is involved in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates and proteins. The body can excrete toxic substances via the liver. It also provides bile acids for fat metabolism.

The liver stores excess glucose and releases it to the body as required. The liver also stores vitamins and trace elements such as iron, zinc, copper and manganese.

These many tasks make the liver absolutely vital! It is dangerous that diseases of this organ are often not recognized at first, as it is insensitive to pain. However, sugar, alcohol and toxins can damage the cells of the liver unnoticed for many years.

Possible symptoms of liver disease

In Germany, around 5 million people suffer from liver problems. The initial symptoms that indicate liver disease can vary greatly. These include

• Nausea/feeling of fullness
• Feeling of pressure in the right upper abdomen
• Jaundice (with typical yellowing of the skin or eyes)
• Tiredness/weakness
• fever
• Light (clay-colored) stool and beer-brown urine
• Itching on the body
• Bleeding and bruising

Risk factors for liver overload

First and foremost, there are genetic factors: 50% of the population have a genetically reduced capacity to produce sufficient detoxification enzymes.
Other risk factors can be ...

• Too much sugar
• Too much alcohol
• No or too little physical exercise
• Too many "refined" carbohydrates (cereals, potatoes, pasta, sugar, sweet drinks)
• Medication (reduced breakdown with fatty liver)
• Too little fruit and vegetables
• Too much fructose and fructose-containing drinks

You can of course take action yourself here. By paying attention to your diet, exercising more or reducing your intake of medication. But this is easier said than done - and unfortunately not possible for many people. But herbal substances can help.

LEBER FIT Complex: the 10-in-1 nutrient formula

With its 10 ingredients combined in one capsule, LEBER FIT Complex is a holistic dietary supplement for all aspects of the liver. The focus of interest here is milk thistle. The "silymarin" extracted from the plant has won over researchers and users alike.

The importance of milk thistle for your liver? Read on ...

Milk thistle can contribute to liver balance

Overloading the liver can lead to digestion no longer functioning optimally. This can result in complaints such as bloating, flatulence and upper abdominal pain. Milk thistle can help to normalize liver function*.

Milk thistle capsules contain silymarin from high-quality extract

There is no question that milk thistle supports the normalization of liver function. However, until now researchers have been faced with the problem of the very low bioavailability of the important silymarin contained in milk thistle.

This means that it cannot be absorbed very well by the body - up to 90% of the oral silymarin can be lost on its way to the liver.

Silymarin is often made from the ground seeds of milk thistle. However, this powder then only contains small amounts of silymarin - usually around 1-3%. Our concentrated extract is standardized to 80 % silymarin - many times more than in the powder.

By combining it with phospholipids - in LEBER FIT Complex in the form of phosphatidylcholine, a phospholipid found in all cell membranes in the body - even greater bioavailability is achieved.

LEBER FIT Complex - the all-inclusive capsule

In addition to milk thistle, LEBER FIT Complex also contains the tried and tested choline. Choline transports the fatty acids from the liver to the places needed in the body. If there is a choline deficiency, more fat is stored in the liver because this metabolic process is disrupted. A liver with a high fat content ("fatty liver") can only detoxify the body to a limited extent and liver functions are impaired. Choline supports normal lipid and homocysteine metabolism - and above all: normal liver function*.

LEBER FIT Complex is rounded off with vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, zinc, manganese and selenium. These are all ingredients that are directly or indirectly related to the liver - they support the normal function of the immune system, lipid, energy, carbohydrate and homocysteine metabolism and also help to protect cells from oxidative stress*.

LEBER FIT Complex - the answer to modern stresses

Today, a person's liver has to cope with many times more than it had to 50 or 100 years ago: too much sugar and modern additives in our food, medicines and environmental toxins that were not even known in the past. Think of your liver, think of LEBER FIT Complex.
