Eating Sweets To Relieve Stress? He Has Severe Fatty Liver At The Age Of 30! Eating Less Of 3 Foods Can Be Reversed

30-year-old Mr. Bao is an engineer. Because of the high pressure of work, he likes to eat desserts and snacks to relieve the pressure. Although he is not fat and has a medium body, he did not expect that he had severe fatty liver during the medical examination! Not only that, his health check results also found abnormal liver function and blood fat exceeding the standard value.

Ultrasound is white! He has severe fatty liver at the age of 30

It can be seen from the abdominal ultrasound examination that Mr. Bao's liver is white, and the small blood vessels in the liver are almost invisible. Since ultrasound cannot penetrate fat, when the fat blocks the ultrasound reflection and cannot receive the signal, the back of the image will appear black.

Seeing the results of the ultrasound examination, Mr. Bao couldn't help but wonder: I am still very young and have no habit of drinking, why do I have fatty liver? Liang Chengchao, vice president of Beitou Health Management Hospital, explained that most people think that excessive drinking will damage the liver. In fact, modern people eat delicately and do not exercise enough. Civilized diseases such as three highs and obesity are easy to cause fatty liver.

If you don’t drink alcohol, you will also get fatty liver. Be careful of liver cancer.

Fatty liver can be divided into two types: alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Liang Chengchao explained that Mr. Bao usually has a delicate and high-calorie diet, and he suffers from non-alcoholic fatty liver; Excessive calorie intake is easily converted into fat and stored in the liver, and the fat exceeds 5% of the liver, which is called fatty liver.

According to statistics, 1 in 4 people in the world has non-alcoholic fatLiver patients; and in Taiwan, fatty liver patients also have a gradually increasing trend, the prevalence rate is about 11.4% to 41%. Liang Chengchao reminded that although fatty liver is common, don’t take it lightly. Be careful, it may progress to hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and even liver cancer, which is commonly known as the “Trilogy of Liver Diseases”.

There is no specific medicine for fatty liver. Eat 3 kinds of food to reverse it.

Although there is no effective medicine for fatty liver, it can be started from daily life, and exercise habits and weight control will help to stay away from liver disease trilogy .

Liang Chengchao reminded that there are almost no symptoms in the early stage of fatty liver, and most people are accidentally discovered during the health check. Abdominal ultrasound is a powerful tool for checking liver health and can effectively diagnose whether there is fatty liver. If it is found to be moderate or severe fatty liver, it is recommended to use zero-radiation magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to examine the liver cell-specific contrast agent, which can make up for the possible dead spots of ultrasound and achieve a more accurate judgment.
