LIVER DEFATTING DIET - WHY IS IT WORTH IMPLEMENTING?

 

The liver is one of the most important organs in our body. As a multifunctional gland consisting of four glands, it often helps us digest heavy and poisonous substances. The liver consists of the right lobe, left lobe, quadrate and caudate lobe. In addition, we can distinguish the diaphragmatic and peritoneal surfaces.

 

Her basic tasks are:

  • bile production,
  • production of blood plasma protein,
  • polysaccharide production,
  • enzyme storage,
  • processing of carbohydrates, amino acids and purines.

 

If liver disorders occur, many biochemical dependencies in our body are much worse processed. There are many causes of fatty liver disease and for this reason we should look at them. Everyday stress, lack of a balanced diet and stimulants lead to its burden and then damage. Fatty liver disease in the initial phase may turn out to be a harmless disease. Unfortunately, failure to detect previous symptoms and then failure to change eating habits may result in permanent damage to this organ.


 

WHAT IS THERE IS A FATTY LIVER?

 

Hepatic steatosis is the accumulation of fat in liver cells - hepatocytes. It may be alcoholic or non-alcoholic in nature. Alcohol has a hepatotoxic effect and is responsible for the deposition of fat in the liver. However, its abuse is not the only reason that causes this disease.  

 

Research shows that fatty liver affects people who are overweight and obese. Moreover, taking hormonal drugs, diabetes and lipid metabolism disorders lead to this state of affairs. Fatty liver disease occurs when the liver is inflamed (mainly of the viral type).


Many people are at risk of fatty liver disease because it depends on lifestyle, genetic tendencies and even metabolism. If our metabolism is irregular, the liver increases its uptake fats and then stores them inside. This action leads to cell damage and cell remodeling over time. Fatty liver occurs occasionally in pregnant women. However, there is no rule whether this disease affects adults or children. Every person is exposed to them.


 

FATTY LIVER — CAUSES

 

The main cause of fatty liver disease is the consumption of large amounts of alcohol and an ill-balanced diet. For this reason, people often talk about alcoholic fatty liver disease. This is not the only reason that leads to disorders of this organ. There is also non-alcoholic fatty liver, which results from problems with metabolism and nutritional factors. The problem in this case is not only excessive meals and obesity, but also fasting and protein malnutrition. diabetes and hyperadrenocorticism may play a significant role in this disease.
 

Other causes that lead to fatty liver disease are:

  • digestion and absorption disorders,
  • pancreatic diseases,    
  • malabsorption syndrome,  
  • bowel resection,  
  • celiac disease,    
  • Leśniowski's disease — Crohn's,
  • colitis,
  • hepatitis D and C,
  • Reye syndrome,  
  • post-pregnancy complications.

 

The probability that fatty liver disease will occur as a result of congenital diseases. Examples include abetalipoproteinemia, congenital urea cycle disorders and storage diseases. Fortunately, they are rare. However, we should know when our liver may be fatty and how to recognize it.


 

FATTY LIVER SYMPTOMS - HOW TO RECOGNIZE?

 

Unfortunately, fatty liver disease does not cause symptoms that can be immediately identified with this disease. We only learn that the liver is fatty during tests such as abdominal ultrasound. There are cases in which the patient feels fatigue, weakness, and even discomfort on the right side of the abdominal cavity. The doctor can use a physical examination to determine whether the liver is enlarged or whether the spleen is enlarged.

WHAT TESTS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT TO DETERMINE CHANGES IN LIVER CELLS?


The priority examination that should allow us to identify fatty liver disease is abdominal ultrasound. If after performing this activity we do not have a certain diagnosis, an MRI can be performed, and even take a liver sample for histopathological examination. In addition, biochemical blood tests can be performed, which will show an increase in the activity of ALAT and ASPAT aminotransferases. Very often, in such a case, we are dealing with hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia.


 

FATTY LIVER DIET - WHAT TO EAT?

 

A fatty liver diet should be the most effective way to combat this disease. The success of the entire treatment depends on it. People suffering from fatty liver disease should primarily avoid fatty and fried foods and alcohol, which greatly burdens the liver. Many people like meat. Unfortunately, most of its forms are fatty and are additionally served after thermal treatment in the form of frying in another amount of fat. Such a menu will not help us in degreasing the liver. It will be best if we change fatty meat and frying it to lean meat, baked or steamed. The diet should include meat products, but it is best to change our habits regarding their preparation. Cold cuts should also be chosen with a view to ensuring that they are lean.     
 

Vegetables will help in your diet, especially:
  • pickled cucumbers,
  • carrot,
  • lettuce,    
  • chicory,  
  • Chinese cabbage,       
  • tomatoes.
 
Seasonal and tasty fruits are also recommended if we want to take care of our liver.
 
The following products can be distinguished here:  
  • apples,           
  • kiwi,       
  • nectarines,        
  • watermelons,   
  • melons,  
  • bananas,  
  • peaches.
 
Vegetables and fruits can be eaten in unprocessed, steamed and baked.  
 
Dairy products that will help us replenish protein in our body include: 
  • soft-boiled eggs,   
  • skinny cheese,    
  • low-fat dairy products,   
  • natural yogurt,   
  • natural buttermilk,  
  • curd,   
  • kefir.
         
It is not recommended to consume cream by people who suffer from fatty liver disease. Carbohydrates are provided by appropriate cereal products.
 
Recommendable ones include:      
  • small "thread" type noodles,         
  • barley cereal flakes,     
  • oatmeal,    
  • light and dark bread,   
  • millet.
 
The above-mentioned products should be beaten or steamed or baked. Avoid frying. If we are unable to give up this habit, we should at least use as little fat as possible.
 
We know what products to eat. Currently, we still need to define a list of things that we should not consume if we plan to degrease the liver.
 
Due to their composition, it is not recommended to eat the following foods: 
  • wheat bread; with caramel, with honey, with malt,    
  • mountain oatmeal, muesli,        
  • loose rice     
  • thick noodles
  • cream, cream, Cremona,      
  • coarse groats: barley, buckwheat,         
  • fat white cheese, cottage cheese yellow and processed cheeses, Feta, blue cheese,
  • cured meats and fatty meat, some offal products, e.g. pâté, brawn,
  • spicy spices, ketchup, mustard, vinegar.
 
The diet itself is an obligatory form of fighting fatty liver. In addition, regular physical activity will be very helpful. Thanks to it, we will also lose a few unnecessary kilograms, which are one of the main causes of fatty liver disease.
 
Unfortunately, there are currently no pharmacological agents specifically designed for the above-mentioned disease that will guarantee effective treatment. However, there are dietary supplements that support liver function. Such substances are effective, but the real and best effect will be achieved when we combine them with a proper diet and physical training. It is recommended to change not only the food, but also the entire lifestyle, because proper treatment of fatty liver disease should take place on many levels.

Winter milkweed extract has been shown to influence glutathione levels and help regenerate liver cells. The sulfur-containing compounds naturally occurring R-alpha-lipoic acid and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) are also involved in the regulation of glutathione. Sulforaphane GlucoSinolat, from broccoli, is a precursor of sulforaphane, an inducer of phase two detoxification enzymes. PicroMax, a standardized extract of Picrorhiza kurroa, is a hepatoprotective herb recognized in Ayurveda. B vitamins support liver enzymes and promote liver regeneration.  In addition, uridine nucleoside supports liver detoxification, while NAC conjugates and promotes the excretion of acetaldehyde, a toxic intermediate in alcohol metabolism.
