What does the liver do? – Emma Bryce

There’s a factory inside you that weighs about 1.4 kilograms and runs for 24 hours a day. It’s your liver: the heaviest organ in your body, which simultaneously acts as a storehouse, a manufacturing hub, and a processing plant. Emma Bryce gives a crash course on the liver and how it helps keep us alive. Lesson by Emma Bryce, animation by Andrew Zimbelman for The Foreign Correspondents’ Club.
