We think we know everything there is to know about them. After all, faithful paparazzi haunt them down just so we can get a picture or a glimpse of their lives. However,repparttar “money shot” doesn’t tell us everything. Especially how they stay in shape, maintain their youthfulness, and flawless skin.

We have seenrepparttar 143175 Demi Moore transform before our very eyes, we have watched Alicia Silverstone remain just as radiant as she was in “Clueless”. We have seen Angela Basset evolve from a muscle built Tina Turner in “What’s Love Got to Do With It” to a lean and fit beauty right before our eyes.

So, what is their secret? The secret is your natural fat burner. Your body has a natural fat burner called your liver. The liver is responsible for breaking down fats and excreting bile fromrepparttar 143176 system. It isrepparttar 143177 largest internal organ inrepparttar 143178 body and often times we ignore it.
