If you haven't seriously damaged your liver it will recover. If you are concerned your doctor can test your liver functions yeah.. it can't hurt! It might. Depends on what caused the damage and how progressed it is. What's more certain is that stopping drinking can help prevent further damage to your liver. You liver may or may not heal itself if you quit. Without even thinking about your liver you have done permanent damage to so many other areas of your body already so it is a good idea to stop drinking to lessen the amount of permanent damage to your body. That depends on a lot of factors: like how heavy a drinker you've been, what kind of diet you have, as well as other pathogens you may have been exposed to.

Yes. It will always help your liver to get off the booze. Check some holistic web-sites for natural boosters.....
