The hepatotrophic influence and handling of EBV, Toxocara and Erlichia

Liver diseases are among the most common causes of death. They only show obvious signs or symptoms when they are far advanced and the liver is already severely damaged. The liver is the second-largest organ and performs more than 5000 different bodily functions (e.g., blood clotting, etc.).
