Think of your liver like your own personal filtering system: Suck in the bad and spit out the good.

"The liver has many important functions that keeps a person healthy. It removes harmful material from the bloodstream and helps digest food," says holistic nutritionist Hermeet Suri from Mississauga, Ont.

The liver, weighing in at an average of three pounds, is a rubbery and reddish-brown organ that sits on the right side of your stomach, according to WebMD.com.

A functioning liver works as our bodies' fat-burning organ: It converts nutrients from the food we eat into essential blood components, storing vitamins and minerals and producing proteins and enzymes to maintain hormone balances in our bodies, Suri says. Our livers also help our immune system fight infections, remove bacteria from the blood and make bile, which is essential for digesting our meals.

Problems with your liver can be inherited or can occur if your body is infected by any viruses or harmful chemicals, according to The Mayo Clinic. Mistreating your liver can raise the risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease, chronic fatigue, headaches, digestive problems, allergies and many other ailments, Suri says.

"Although the immune system protects our body from many dangers, it is the liver that protects the immune system from becoming overloaded," he says.

Suri says avoiding an excessive consumption of tobacco, alcohol, coffee and white sugar and adding in low impact exercises (like daily walks) and drinking lots of water are all ways to ensure good liver health.

Spinach

This hearty green is rich in magnesium—and when you’re low in this mineral, you can end up feeling tired, irritable, and even foggy, says Young. Spinach is also high in vitamins A, B, and C, and it's a solid source of iron and protein, both of which pump up energy levels. It gets better: Research has found that spinach may boost weight loss by reducing cravings for sweets and salty junk food.

European Stocks Advance Amid Optimism on Earnings, Growth.

European stocks rose for a second day amid optimism that the euro’s weakness against the dollar will boost profits at the region’s companies and the strength of the U.S. economy will drive global growth. U.S. index futures were little changed, while Asian shares outside Japan fell.

The benchmark Stoxx Europe 600 Index climbed 0.4 percent to 345.75 at 9:56 a.m. in London after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi told a Lithuanian newspaper that the euro-area economic recovery seems to have lost its momentum. Standard & Poor’s 500 Index futures slipped 0.1 percent, while the MSCI AC Asia Pacific Excluding Japan Index lost 0.6 percent.

“The strong dollar is very good news for European equities,” Pierre Mouton, who helps oversee about $8 billion at Notz, Stucki & Cie. in Geneva, said in a phone interview. “This helps the competitiveness of European companies on a global scale thanks to a cheaper euro and secondly it will translate into better earnings for export-oriented companies. Yesterday’s home sales in the U.S. were sharply up which is very good news for the health of the U.S. economy which is very important as it is the real driver of the world economy.”

Currency Devaluation

The euro, the shared currency of 18 European countries, tumbled to its lowest level since November 2012 against the dollar, falling for a third day. The shared currency of 18 European countries has dropped 8.7 percent since a high in May.

The ECB is unanimous on the use of unconventional monetary policy to revive growth in the euro area, Draghi told the region’s central bankers at a conference in Vilnius, Lithuania. In an interview to Verslo Zinios before the event, he said heightened political tensions and inadequate policy changes are risks to the economic recovery.

In the U.S., data this week showed new-home sales surged in August to the highest level in more than six years and manufacturing continued to expand in September. Reports today may show first-time applications for jobless benefits rose last week, while durable-goods orders slumped last month, according to economists surveyed by Bloomberg News.

Cambrian Period.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal

Aside from them, most known animal phyla make a more or less simultaneous appearance during the Cambrian period, about 542 million years ago.It is still disputed whether this event, called the Cambrian explosion, is due to a rapid divergence between different groups or due to a change in conditions that made fossilization possible.

Precambrian.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal

The next oldest possible animal fossils are found towards the end of the Precambrian, around 610 million years ago, and are known as the Ediacaran or Vendian biota.These are difficult to relate to later fossils, however. Some may represent precursors of modern phyla, but they may be separate groups, and it is possible they are not really animals at all.

665-million-year-old Rock.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal

The first fossils that might represent animals appear in the Trezona Formation at Trezona Bore, West Central Flinders, South Australia.These fossils are interpreted as being early sponges. They were found in 665-million-year-old rock.

Origin and fossil record of the Animal Kingdom.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal

Animals are generally considered to have evolved from a flagellated eukaryote.Their closest known living relatives are the choanoflagellates, collared flagellates that have a morphology similar to the choanocytes of certain sponges.Molecular studies place animals in a supergroup called the opisthokonts, which also include the choanoflagellates, fungi and a few small parasitic protists.The name comes from the posterior location of the flagellum in motile cells, such as most animal spermatozoa, whereas other eukaryotes tend to have anterior flagella.
