Excretion and the liver Excretion in mammals Excretion is the removal of potentially harmful or toxic substances from the body. These substances are usually waste materials produced by complex chemical reactions taking place in living cells. Enzymes catalyse the reactions.
The liver is a vital organ within the human body. It is responsible for detoxing the body and transforming waste into urine. If it cannot perform these tasks, the body can be flooded with excess waste, toxins and fluid. This excess fluid is reabsorbed into the bodyâs tissue and can become water retention. When water retention occurs alongside liver damage, individuals have to be extremely careful in their treatment method. Herbal supplements and medication can be tough on the liver.
