Why does a large amount of carbohydrates kill the liver?

The liver is a single-task organ. Its cells can work either as a laboratory or as a warehouse. When you eat a lot of carbohydrates, these carbohydrates are converted into glycogen and stored in the liver. The more glycogen is stored, the fewer cells the liver has left for producing bile, binding and eliminating toxins and hormones (detoxification), and processing minerals and vitamins. If there are not enough cofactors to process a certain vitamin or mineral, that vitamin or mineral also starts to be stored in the liver cells, turning them into a warehouse rather than a laboratory.
