The liver does not store bilirubin, it actually helps to break down and excrete it. Bilirubin is a waste product produced by the breakdown of red blood cells and is excreted from the body through the liver and intestines. The liver's functions include carbohydrate metabolism, protein metabolism, phagocytosis, and storage of vitamins.
