Learn How Fatty Liver Symptoms Can Cause Weight Gain...
Fatty Liver Symptoms can impede a weight loss
program through reduced fat metabolism and reduced fat burning, one of the liver's main
functions, as well as seriously impacting on your health. Fatty Liver
Symptoms are
especially common in people who drink too much alcohol, have high blood
triglycerides, have diabetes, are obese or overweight, follow poor nutrition
weight loss programs, eat a lot of junk food and trans-fats, or who follow diets
that are too calorie restrictive.
As a matter of fact, many
people who follow calorie restrictive weight loss programs and yo-yo diets end
up with gallstones and gallbladder disease and Impaired Liver Function.
This in turn perpetuates the weight loss / weight gain vicious cycle (commonly
known as yo-yo dieting), often resulting in insulin resistance / metabolic
syndrome, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (Ovarian Cyst Syndrome) or Diabetes.
The more of the following symptoms that apply to you, the more likely it is that
Impaired Liver Function may be a major cause of your poor health and weight loss
struggles:

The liver is one
of the most important organs in our body because it is not only responsible
for fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism, but it also processes and
detoxifies our bodies of any toxic substances we ingest. The liver also
cleanses the body of waste products such as those formed from the breakdown of
protein (at least it does when liver function isn't impaired as in Fatty
Liver!).
Years of poor
diets including the over-consumption of fatty foods, sugars and refined
carbohydrates, as well as chemical overloads such as antibiotics, painkillers
and environmental toxins all contribute to overworking your liver, resulting
in Fatty Liver symptoms. Your liver is faced with the tremendous job of processing all
these toxins and as the years go by, it becomes less and less effective at its
job.
Poor diets in
particular make your liver work overtime to process all the fat and high GI
refined carbohydrates and over time this often leads to gallbladder disease
and gallstones and fatty liver symptoms, as well as problems associated with blood
sugar metabolism such as insulin resistance, hypoglycemia and diabetes. The
liver is responsible for turning glucose into glycogen and storing it in the
liver. If blood sugar levels drop too low, the liver releases the glucose to
meet the body’s needs.
As time goes on
and your diet doesn’t improve, your liver becomes less able to cope with
filtering out toxins and burning fat and your liver function becomes
impaired. At that point, the liver doesn’t regulate fat metabolism very well
and instead of burning fat or eliminating fat and cholesterol through the
intestines, the liver starts to become a fat-storer. When the liver has
progressed to the stage of exhibiting fatty liver symptoms, then it develops deposits of fatty
tissue in the liver and its function is impaired.
If the liver
function is impaired and exhibits fatty liver symptoms, it cannot process or
metabolise circulating fat in the bloodstream, so this fat gets deposited in
many areas of the body, including in organs and under the skin. If you have
fatty liver symptoms, is essential to restore the liver to its previous state
of health where its functions include carbohydrate, protein and fat
metabolism. This can be done in various ways, including a liver detox.

What is Liver Detox?
One of the main jobs of the
liver is to detoxify the body of toxins and unhealthy substances. In the
process of doing this job the liver can become overloaded. A liver detox
is a way of "cleansing" the liver and supporting it so that it can work more
efficiently. There are many ways of doing a liver detox, including
fasting and juice fasting, drinking "detox" smoothies and herbal teas, and
taking supplements that are known to support the liver.
My recommendation would be to
do a liver detox in a safe and liver supportive fashion by increasing the
amount of water you drink and eliminating processed foods and meats from your
diet. As a matter of fact, I believe that detoxifying your body and
liver is so important to your overall health that I wrote a new e-book
outlining a safe and easy detoxification program that will not only improve
your health, but will also "kick-start" your liver and elimination organs to
help you to eliminate fluid retention and toxins and fire your liver up to be
a fat-burner again.
