News India Live, Digital Desk: Liver Health: Our liver is a very important part of our body, which does thousands of important things – from digesting food to getting poisonous substances out of the body. But, there is a disease that is secretly weakening our liver – that is fatty liver (Fatty liver)The sad thing is that in the initial stage, its symptoms are often not known, and by the time it is revealed, it has taken a serious form. If it is not controlled in time, it can turn into deadly diseases like liver failure or cirrhosis.
Actually, when excessive fat accumulates in our liver cells, it is called fatty liver. This is mainly the result of our bad lifestyle and eating. You will be surprised to know that your daily dinner includes some things that are secretly ill. So, if you want to save your liver and reduce the risk of fatty liver, then make a distance from these 4 things today:
-
White Bread and Refined Grain:
From morning breakfast to evening snacks, our diet often includes things made of flour and refined flour – whether it is white bread, pasta, or biscuits. They have less fiber and high processed sugar, which takes a lot of hard work to digest the liver. These things very quickly turn into glucose and when excessive glucose occurs in the body, the liver starts storing it into fat. This fat is deposited in the liver and causes fatty liver. -
Sugar drinks (eg cold drinks and packet juices):
Be careful if you like cold drinks, energy drinks or packets with packets! They are one of the biggest enemies of the liver. These include high-fructose corn syrup and a lot of artificial sugar. The liver specializes in converting fructose into fat, and when this fat accumulates excessively in the liver, the risk of fatty liver and insulin resistance increases. These sweet beverages also do not have any nutrients, only empty calories. -
Fried and Oily Foods:
We Indians are very fond of eating fried and spicy – parathas, samosas, french fries, pakoras… The list is very long! Unfortunately, all these deep-Friday and high-fat foods are filled with unhealthy trans fat and saturated fat, which directly attack the liver. They are at the forefront of making the liver fatty. By processing so much fat, the liver work increases greatly and over time it starts to weaken. -
Liquor:
The ‘friendship’ of alcohol and liver is very old… and very bad! Excessive alcohol consumption causes the liver rapidly, and the fatty liver starts. Liver has to do a lot of work to break alcohol, and in this process the liver cells are damaged, causing fat to accumulate and also increases inflammation. This is the main cause of alcoholic fatty liver disease – AFLD, which can reach cirrhosis and liver failure.
The good thing is that fatty liver can often be corrected by changing the right diet and lifestyle, especially in the early stage. Include fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins in your diet. Exercise regularly, keep your weight under control and keep distance from the things mentioned above. Remember, healthy liver is the key to healthy life! If you feel any symptoms, do not delay in consulting a doctor.
