📺 Do You Know Your Number? – Episode 8: Liver Health & Fatty Liver Disease

🔑 Key Takeaways

1. Why the Liver Matters

   • The liver has over 500 vital functions, including detoxification, breaking down fats, storing nutrients, and producing clotting factors.

   • When the liver fails, the whole body fails.

2. Major Causes of Liver Failure

   • #1 Alcohol abuse (alcoholic liver disease)

   • #2 Viral hepatitis

   • #3 Fatty liver disease (NAFLD) – now affecting 25% of adults and 5–10% of children in America.

3. Know Your Liver Numbers

   • Key tests: ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

   • Healthy range: 35 or less

   • Danger signs: ALT/AST > 40 (trouble), >100 (serious), >200 (dire)

   • If ALT/AST and hsCRP (inflammation marker) are elevated → high risk of fibrosis and cirrhosis.

4. Stages of Liver Damage

   • Fatty liver → inflammation → fibrosis → cirrhosis → liver failure.

   • Fibrosis shrinks the liver from the size of a football to a small cantaloupe.

5. Silent Warning Signs

   • Early stages often have no symptoms—may just feel fatigued.

   • Swelling in abdomen and legs, sudden weight gain (50–100 lbs of fluid), and enlarged spleen are late signs of failure.

🍽️ Foods & Habits That Damage the Liver

• Worst culprits:

  • High-fructose corn syrup, sugar, fruit juice, dried fruit, honey, maple syrup.

  • Processed carbs: white bread, flour, pasta, potatoes.

  • Bad fats: hydrogenated oils, fried foods, seed oils.

• High-risk groups:

  • People with obesity, prediabetes, diabetes, or metabolic syndrome (belly fat, high BP, high triglycerides, insulin resistance).

✅ How to Restore and Protect Your Liver

1. Lifestyle Changes

   • Follow Beyond Keto or Keto Zone (low sugar, low processed foods, Mediterranean-based).

   • Intermittent fasting to burn fat and reduce inflammation.

   • Exercise to burn belly fat.

   • Increase fiber intake (Fiber Zone, vegetables, nuts).

   • Avoid alcohol.

2. Supplements for Liver Support

   • Nano Glutathione (Spray or Dropper) – powerful antioxidant for detox and liver protection.

   • Liver & Gallbladder Cleanse – contains milk thistle, alpha-lipoic acid, beetroot, and artichoke to support detox pathways.

   • High phenolic olive oil – helps protect the liver.

3. Medical Support

   • Tests: FibroScan or MR Elastography to measure fibrosis.

   • For obesity-related fatty liver: GLP-1 agonists (like semaglutide) can help reverse fat buildup.
