The world has lost its borders and around the clock eats incomprehensible things... The liver plays a key role in the metabolism of any type of energy source, whether it be proteins, fats or carbohydrates.
Everything we eat, she has to deal with..
If a person constantly overeats and gains weight, the liver receives very sensitive blows - inflammatory signals coming from both the accumulated fat itself and from the digestive tract, where sooner or later bacterial imbalance begins and unfavorable elements strengthen their positions - LPS (lipopolysaccharides) and candida.
The former feed on toxic fat from overcooked butter / processed foods / trans fats, the latter are very fond of sugar.
Now is the time to praise yourself for not having this on your menu..
Do you know what metabolic problem is defining in our time
The world has completely lost its borders and around the clock eats and drinks it is not clear what.
White adipose tissue cannot accumulate fat as quickly as we now supply the body with excess nutrients..
The body involuntarily has to use the liver reservoirs, which are very, very small.. Fat lingers there, but does not have time to get out, a new batch is already underway.
Metabolism starts sneezing and coughing like a decrepit motor. And the waist is rounded accordingly.
If the arms and legs do not particularly increase, and the stomach grows happily, it is worth running to the liver test, getting scared and reducing calories (due to sweets) three times. Everything will be fine soon.
Stagnant fat overloads the liver. Sounds just apocalyptic, but it's true.
And then the vulnerable gallbladder gets hit. Although we have learned to solve this problem. It is impossible to remove a diseased liver, but the gallbladder is easy!
Business, - the surgeon will say, - I cut off so many of them in my lifetime!
But if you are incredibly drawn to pounce on sweets, please remember that we don’t have extra organs - and never have.
Inflammatory metabolic signals become stronger over time, fat in the liver makes it dysfunctional, and it no longer helps us in any processes..
One of the bells - unable to lose weight. The main energy management mechanism is out of order. The metabolism of fats and sugar is disturbed - now they do not provide energy, but begin to accumulate in the vessels, interfere with the brain and bring inexorable old age.
In general, the liver is not only the first line of defense against excess calories, but also our last stronghold..
If it collapses, there will be no one responsible for the safety of the body.
What else prevents the liver from working?
For example, an excess of the hormone leptin, which is produced by white adipose tissue, lowers levels of its companion adiponectin, a condition for liver insulin resistance.. It's bad for her, in short.
Blood sugar begins to rise and at the same time turn into fat in the liver.
The inability of the liver to properly process carbohydrates is a condition for rapid weight gain..
And rapid weight gain is a reason to check the liver.
If you are faced with this, no sweet, including a bunch of fruits, wonderful honey and Jerusalem artichoke syrup, is no longer for you..
Get by with stevia and a small amount of berries, you will be healthier.
Fatty liver is 5 times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
Think about it.
What to pay attention to?
Fluctuations in blood sugar / persistently elevated glucose + overweight may be harbingers or signs of excess fat in the liver.
• If you are gaining weight even from normal complex carbohydrates, this indicates that the liver cannot cope.
• If you can use them and do not gain extra pounds, the tests are normal - everything is fine with your liver.
In the first scenario, it makes sense to return the metabolism to its previous course by minimizing carbohydrates.. When it gets better, return. But not in the form of sweets, flour and sugar, please..
What about fat? When the liver cells are clogged with fat, it cannot break down the fat to use it as fuel..
In a normal situation, the liver constantly breaks down and regenerates fat cells, but if its health suffers, the process begins to limp and tends more towards accumulation than splitting..
You usually see it as an increase in triglyceride levels in the blood..
The problem with triglycerides is that they can turn off the function of a special gene in the liver that controls fat storage.. And this is going to be hard to fix..
How to Lower Triglycerides or Prevent High Triglycerides?
Very simple - stop snacking between meals and make dinner endless, until the very night.!
Ate at 18-20. 00, and that's it - your mouth is locked.
Plus, another golden rule is to never overeat..
As soon as triglyceride levels begin to fall, the liver will have the conditions to start getting rid of fat that has clogged it..
If the level of triglycerides does not fall on proper nutrition, but stands still or grows - you have not cut calories enough and cleansed the diet, there is no progress.
We need an environment in which the liver breathes freely and begins to get rid of excess.
What else can help the liver?
•Stay active. Muscles and aerobic processes voraciously consume both fat and sugar, and the liver of a sedentary person faces a huge problem - what to do with the excess?
• Do not overeat in any case. When everything is already going through the roof, the liver turns on the “last resort” backup mechanism - dumps unnecessary calories in the digestive tract, and this is a real poisoning with excess food, an incredibly inefficient and harmful process for the body..
As a rule, the liver can be brought to this point by the habit of eating a whole cake in one person / three kebab skewers / a pound of mashed potatoes as part of a normal meal..
In general, do not see the edges at all and absorb food either thoughtlessly, or emotionally, or to the point of mechanical distension of the stomach with high-calorie foods.
In order to protect itself and carry those kilograms of food to the intestines, the body begins to synthesize additional cholesterol and bile - as a mechanism for exporting fat..
Just think - the body does not know what to do with food, and it literally has to self-poison!
I dare to suggest that this is a consequence of some kind of eating disorder - when a person feels that something is wrong, but eats, eats, eats... Side effects - indigestion and heartburn.
The reason is too much bile, which strongly irritates the mucous membrane of the small intestine and is thrown into the stomach.. One of the foundations for the development of acid reflux. People are swallowing antacids instead of finally reviewing their diet. Mind incomprehensible.
No need to choke the acid, it will return to normal when the bile calms down - you need to choke the internal overeater. stop connivance.
•There is protein. Especially for breakfast. To restore a healthy metabolism, the liver needs a regular supply of protein, not nightmarish simple carbohydrates.. Especially if the waist has already increased.
You can even try to start metabolism in the morning with a serving of protein..
• Grow friendly microflora. Do not feed any ragamuffins industrial chemicals and sugar, but eat whole foods - including probiotic products. Digestive imbalance is another colossal metabolic stressor that puts the liver out of action.. Good bacteria protect the digestive tract from bile irritation, among other things.
•Work with stress. She promised to talk about him every day. High stress is the release of cortisol, and excess cortisol is an inflammatory. All inflammation is also a liver headache.
By the way, when overflowing, cortisol becomes a serious enemy of the liver, turning off its ability to effectively break down fat..
This is why chronic stress, among other things, leads to insulin resistance, excess weight, diabetes and critical vascular problems..
• Add a normal amount of fiber to the diet.
Fiber is what absorbs all sorts of waste like excess fat, cholesterol, toxins, and brings them out.. Plus, it does not allow you to overeat, taking up space in the stomach..
So let's sum it up....
Do you know what excites me? Here I am talking about what organs suffer from. I tell, I tell... The third year already.
And all the same, constantly these questions: “Or maybe I’ll drink milk thistle? ” “How do you feel about hepatoprotectors? “Yes, you yourself are both the main hepato-hater and the main hepatoprotector.
Dot.
Understand, if you break down all the time, haven’t weaned yourself from overeating, haven’t reached the MRI, haven’t started to be active, eat all sorts of prepared foods for nothing, fry food to a crust, gain weight and can’t deny yourself sweets, then I have good. And milk thistle too.
These poultices are useless if the SYSTEM APPROACH remains the same..
The liver should become EASIER!
And it will be HARDER for some time, because the reverse process is always difficult.
You get used to abundance, inactivity and fat-sweet pleasures quickly, right?
Once again, what needs to be done exactly:.
•Find out what's wrong with the liver.
If everything is not thank God (big belly, high triglycerides, fat in the liver):.
• Minimize carbohydrates. Only difficult ones to leave - and then, a couple of times a day.
• Portion cut in half at least. No frills, simple food. Extremely simple, few components in dishes.
•Introduce workouts and not be afraid to add exercises specifically for the press. All aerobic exercises and stretching are also great.. The goal is to start losing weight and change body composition.
Strength training promotes the production of growth hormone, which helps the liver get rid of fat - this is why the gym improves metabolism sooner or later.
•Eat more protein for breakfast. And don't forget about fat. This is both a guarantee against overeating for the whole day, and functional assistance to the liver..
• Stop snacking, especially mindlessly! Meals 3-4 times a day, and that's enough.
•Early dinner. If you can’t eat early, then at least three hours before bedtime - and let it be minimally caloric and practically carbohydrate-free.
Bad advice for liver health: top google insanity.
Liver Detoxification. You can, I will not comment on this medieval nonsense? Stop overeating or eating weird things, and you won't have to do bucket coffee enemas with olive oil.. Well true.
The liver perfectly detoxifies itself - without any single handicraftsmen and members of the “Crazy hands of the healer Semyon” circle.
It just sounds somehow illogical - for a year we scoff at her, bring her to obesity, and at the end of the year we have no less brutal cleansing procedures. And what kind of mutual understanding with the body can we talk about? He will be afraid and hate such a master, with all the consequences.
Starvation. If it lasts more than a day, then this is a severe test for the liver.. Especially for the weakened and obese. Look, at first she accumulated stagnant fat and toxins, and voila - suddenly the food stopped coming in, everything began to be released from the bins and went where? That's right, in the blood. For the metabolism of the liver is already weak and bad if it is sick. It will take a very long time for the body to recover later even on a reasonable diet.. Intestinal malfunctions are simply guaranteed.
There are also all sorts of warming up of the bile and branded choleretic measures from grandmother Agafya. Drinking oil, nuclear juices, removing stones with their own hands... People do not understand at all where they are climbing. I want to be a god? Well, for a while - yes, until a hospital bed. A whole few hours of glory and boundless happiness.
Honestly, who came up with the idea that our brain, exhausted by the Internet, is smarter than the liver.?
Yes, she is the brain. Someone says - the second or third, but I think - the first.
For the liver to work better, active fat burning must be a long-term trend, and nothing else..
Do not make it so that the liver cannot physically cope with something, so that something accumulates somewhere and clogs your body.
And all!
Plus, normal food and a healthy gut.
It is worth accepting the fact that almost all problems are solved by a moderate portion of decent food..
The rest of the “detox activities” only create them.. And not only the liver.
