Liver

Detox capacity + fat metabolism + protein synthesis

The liver does ~500 jobs at once: filters everything you eat or drink, runs Phase I (CYP450) and Phase II (sulfation, glucuronidation, glycine conjugation) detox, packages fats for transport, makes most of your blood proteins (albumin, clotting factors), and stores glycogen. When choline + glutathione raw material (NAC) + B-vitamin cofactors are low, the liver runs slow — fat accumulates (NAFLD) and detox waste backs up.
