S03_E02 - The Mighty Liver...
In Greek mythology, Prometheus' punishment for stealing fire from Zeus was to be chained to a rock where every day an eagle would come and eat part of his liver (harsh!). And since the liver is the only solid organ in the human body that grows back, that eagle must have been pretty well-fed. But why do we even need a liver? What happens to us when something goes wrong with it? And what can we do to take care of it?
On Episode 2 of this season, we'll have an in-depth conversation about this unsung hero of the human body with Dr. José Debes (MD, MS, PhD), gastroenterologist at Hennepin Healthcare, and associate professor and researcher at the University of Minnesota. This episode is loaded with interesting facts about the liver, explanations of the different ailments associated with it, ways we can limit the stress we put on it, and the role coffee plays. Yep, coffee... Join us!
