3. Depends on who you ask. "no", if you ask me, but some plants are liver friendly, and some others are not.
Hi Sharp ,
Can you illaborate more on the PLANTS that are not liver friendly ??
Regards,
regarding plants: I did not have anything specific in mind when I said that. I meant it in a more generic way. Some plants can help the liver: ayurveda uses some of these. Some plants can severely damage the liver, and easily kill someone, whether they has liver disease or not. If the topic fascinates you (it fascinates me) you can start with this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushroom_poisoning
If you don't have the patience to read the article, I'll give you my one-line summary:
Some (not all) mushrooms are toxic. Some toxic ones kill by damaging the liver.
