As the name suggests, fatty liver refers to the accumulation of excess fat in the liver . You must know that there is indeed a small amount of fat accumulation in the liver tissue of normal people, including triglycerides, phospholipids, and glycolipids, which account for about 3 to 5% of the total weight of the liver .

  And if the accumulation in the liver exceeds the upper limit of this data, or 50% of the liver cells have steatosis, this is what is called fatty liver clinically. It belongs to the pathological liver disease of the liver, not an independent disease!

  In recent years, with the continuous improvement of the living and dietary standards of Chinese residents, the incidence of fatty liver has also risen, and it has gradually shown a trend of younger people. It is not uncommon for young and middle-aged people to suffer from fatty liver in clinical practice.

  Fortunately , fatty liver is a reversible disease, with early diagnosis and timely treatment, the liver can gradually return to normal.

  Especially in patients with mild to moderate fatty liver, the body often has no symptoms, and they do not need to take drugs to protect liver cells or lipid-lowering drugs. All the patient has to do is find out the cause and make adjustments through life and diet. Therefore, if you do not want to let fatty liver develop to an uncontrollable level in the future, it is necessary to start adjusting now:

 

 1. Diet adjustment

  Many people mistakenly believe that only obesity can definitely cause fatty liver. In fact, obesity is indeed a high risk factor for fatty liver, but it is not the only one. If you eat a vegetarian diet for a long time, lose weight quickly, and your body is malnourished, it may also lead to fatty liver . This happens because the liver plays a role in integrating nutrients and assisting in digestion and absorption.

  Although vegetarianism is beneficial to the human body, its essence is still a single-nutrient food type. Long-term vegetarianism and excessive dieting will lead to protein deficiency. The liver cannot synthesize apolipoprotein properly, which leads to the accumulation of large amounts of triglycerides in the liver.

  Not only that, if you suddenly change your eating pattern and diet excessively, it will cause a large amount of body fat to be decomposed in a short period of time, consume the glutathione component originally existing in the liver, and cause malondialdehyde and lipid peroxidation substances to accumulate in the liver cells. Eventually fatty liver is formed.

  Therefore, the dietary adjustment of fatty liver is not a diet and vegetarian diet in an absolute sense, but the patient should arrange three meals reasonably , that is, on the basis of controlling calories, a variety of nutrients should be reasonably matched in the three meals. Reduce fatty foods and sweet foods, and use high-protein lean meat and seafood as a source of nutrients, which can not only control the weight, but also relieve the symptoms of fatty liver.

  In addition, if the patient has the habit of drinking alcohol for a long time, it is likely to have alcoholic fatty liver disease . Because alcohol is decomposed in the liver, it has the effect of inhibiting fat synthesis and metabolism, and alcoholic beverages are originally high-calorie types. Therefore, for this group of people, it is also necessary to quit drinking in time.

  2. Exercise can not be less

  As mentioned above, obesity is the main risk factor for fatty liver. For this group of people, dietary adjustment is only the first step. At the same time, patients should also cooperate with daily physical exercise to accelerate the consumption of body fat .

  However, exercise is not equal to vigorous exercise. Patients should choose the best exercise method according to their age and weight base, and start gradual and long-term adherence . Only in this way can the weight loss effect be seen.

  Finally, I would like to remind everyone that fatty liver seems to have no symptoms at present, but it does not mean that it is harmless, and it is closely related to various metabolic diseases.

  And the continuous development of fatty liver will also cause damage to the liver. Severe fatty liver is very dangerous. Therefore, do not underestimate fatty liver. Once diagnosed, you should cooperate with the doctor to actively adjust it.
