Topics include: About the liver and gall bladder; Types of liver disease including hepatitis, cirrhosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFL) and hepatitis; Tests and checks; Treatment including medication; Diet; Alcohol; 'Cleansing' the liver; Obesity and other lifestyle considerations; Coping with increased vulnerability to infections
