so what’s all this talk about this this

liver thing is is it that important do

we really need a liver

yes you need a healthy liver and the

problem is the majority of population

has a fatty liver and a lot of people

don’t even know that they have fat in

the liver until they get an ultrasound

or they get a cat scan and then they’re

they’re shocked so i think it’s number

one important understand

about the liver and the importances as

well as how to get the fat out of the

liver there’s a great simple thing that

you can do which i’m going to talk about

and there’s also a drink that you can

make every day

to reduce fat on your liver and with

some pretty good science behind it and

i’m going to put those links down below

with each of the ingredient that i’m

going to talk about the first thing i

want to mention

about the liver is that

people don’t realize that

bile is made by the liver they think

it’s made by the gallbladder no the

gallbladder is just a sac that holds the

bile

but i want to talk about the importance

of bile for a second because the liver

makes the bile and the more you

understand about what bile does you’ll

appreciate the liver much much more now

bile is a detergent that helps you break

down fat

but exactly what does that mean break

down fat let’s say for example this is

some fat okay

and this is traveling through the

stomach you just ate some fat and it’s

going to be now going down into the

small intestine so the stomach will kind

of break it down to a certain level but

then we need help from the gallbladder

releasing bile to act on this

this big clump of fat right

so the problem is that um

bile needs help to break this thing down

and it uses help from the pancreas

there’s an enzyme

and the pancreas called lip base okay

lipid meaning fat

ace meaning enzyme the problem is that

in order for lipase to do its job it

needs

the bile’s help and what the bile is

going to do it’s going to break down

this

significantly so there’s more surface

area for the enzyme to act on so this is

what bile does so the file starts to

break this down into small little pieces

here

so let me just kind of break all that

down right here all right so now we have

a much greater

surface area

of

fat

for

the enzyme lipase to do its job okay so

simply bile increases the surface area

of fat

so you can get more of a complete

digestion of that fat in the extraction

into the small intestine that’s where it

gets absorbed

so without enough bile

then the enzyme can’t do its job and now

you don’t get enough vitamin a the first

symptom of a vitamin a deficiency is

like night blindness so you’re

you’re driving at night it’s raining and

you just can’t quite see it’s hard to

see at night okay night vision that’s

vitamin a i mean vitamin a also

counters

bad sinus problems if you have an immune

system issue so if you have really bad

sinuses chances are you could be

deficient in vitamin a but vitamin a

does a lot of other things as well then

we have a lack of vitamin e well that

could show up in your heart so maybe you

get more inflammation in the heart in

the coronary arteries which shows up as

calcification higher levels of

cholesterol plaquing

things like that other than that it

probably won’t do anything else i’m

being very sarcastic

then we have vitamin d let’s say you

can’t absorb vitamin d

well that’s a big problem because you

need it for

getting rid of pain you need it for

decreasing blood pressure you need it

for the formation of calcium in your

bones and as well as the absorption of

calcium in the small intestine so if you

don’t have vitamin d

the rate of absorption of calcium is

like way way lower with vitamin d you

absorb 20 times as much calcium as if

you didn’t have it so now you have all

sorts of calcium problems like bone loss

and

problem sleeping at night and you name

it then we have vitamin k with vitamin

k1 and vitamin k2 if you’re deficient in

vitamin k1 then you get bruising easily

you bleed easily you can’t clot as well

and with vitamin k2 a deficiency of that

you have a calcium building up in the

arteries as well as the joints

then we have other fats like omega-3

fatty acids you need that to keep your

inflammation really low and without

enough omega-3 fatty acids you have all

sorts of inflammatory conditions

arthritis

heart problems

even dementia because of the involvement

in your brain

your brain apparently needs a lot of

omega-3 fatty acids now the other thing

that

bile does is it helps get rid of the

excess amount of cholesterol let’s say

for example you decide you’re going to

lose weight and you get on the ketogenic

diet and now all this fat cell is

releasing its triglyceride

and its cholesterol that’s what’s in

a fat cell the combination of

triglycerides which is can be used for

energy

and also

cholesterol which can’t be used as

energy so we need bile to help eliminate

that excess amount of cholesterol so if

you don’t have enough bile

because you don’t have enough capacity

of liver function

then you end up with

gallstones gallstones are created by a

super concentrated

cholesterol situation because there’s

not enough bile to emulsify and break it

down so we get this crystallization of

cholesterol so when people have

gallstones they actually need more bile

they don’t need necessarily less

cholesterol

and then you also have people that are

on statin drugs which basically block

the production of cholesterol and guess

what bile is made out of

cholesterol this is why the risk goes

way up

in getting gallstones and all these

other issues if someone’s on a statin

and then the other big important purpose

of bile salts is to help eliminate

toxins

and now your body becomes instantly more

toxic because you don’t you can’t get

rid of the toxins that are floating to

the liver because the purpose of the

liver is not to store toxins it’s to

break down toxins into harmless

particles so if you can’t break them

down then and you’re taking medication

and you’re being exposed to planet earth

boy you get a lot of extra poisonous

things that are flooding through the

bloodstream and through your body so we

really need this liver to work correctly

another symptom of a fatty liver is that

you start getting a heavier liver it

becomes enlarged

and that pressure

doesn’t fit in the cavity anymore on the

right side so it backs up and it puts

pressure into the right side of your

neck

up to here to the shoulder so you get

shoulder pain uh you get a lot of

tension in your right trap and that can

create a fullness underneath the right

rib cage is one of the symptoms

and you know people say well i need to

flush out my gallbladder well you know

you need to get rid of the fat in the

liver it’s a little bit different than

fleshing out

anything which i’m going to explain the

other important part about the

liver is its conversion function from t4

to t3 your thyroid without a good liver

you can’t convert the thyroid hormones

so you might have hormones there but

they’re not activated because they can’t

be converted 80 percent

of all the active form of t3 the thyroid

hormone

works through the liver so without that

liver fully functioning

maybe you get

70 or 60 or 50 of it being converted and

here you are wondering why do i have a

thyroid problem there’s no reason to

have a thyroid problem the problem is

not the thyroid it’s your liver it’s the

conversions

okay

very important

the other very important function of the

liver is to

buffer um

certain excesses of sex hormones like

estrogen and testosterone it’s not good

to have too much testosterone or too

much estrogen and so without the liver

working right you cannot form the

proteins to

buffer those hormones and so then we

have

issues like polycystic ovarian syndrome

in women which is

too much androgen and we also have too

much estrogen and even men they start

getting all sorts of problems with

breast tissue

and low testosterone and the list goes

on and on and on now because i talked a

bit more on bile i do want to mention

some other symptoms

to

try to identify if you have low bile

okay number one do you have an

intolerance to digesting fat when you

eat fat do you find that you get more

bloating that would be an indication

that you need more bile do you find that

your stool is light colored like pale or

even gray

or does it float

or does it leave skid marks

that could mean that you’re low in bile

do you find that after you eat you’re

just not satisfied

well maybe because you’re not extracting

the fats

to be absorbed to then tell the brain

like okay i’m done eating that could be

a sign that you need more bile if you

have

nausea or you have indigestion or

bloating those can be signs bloating

burping belching

are classic signs of low bile as well

all right so now that you have some

basics

on the liver and the importance of bile

[Music]

bile is really important into keeping

the fat out of the liver so anything you

can do to increase bile reserves is

going to help you get rid of a fatty

liver so some people even take purified

bile salts and i did put a link down

below for more information on that but

today i want to talk about a

a really simple shake you can make too

to help reduce fat on your liver now i

just want to let you know that

being on the ketogenic diet as well as

doing intermittent fasting together

can

reduce

the fat on your liver by 50 in just 14

days

if you haven’t seen that video i put

that down below so i just wanted to give

you that foundation first because it’s

essential to go on keto and doing

intermittent fasting if you have a fatty

liver but this shake i’m going to talk

about next is a really simple thing

everyone can do to keep fat off your

liver and it’s backed by some pretty

good science

so the ingredients are simple you’re

going to use kale

you’re going to use blueberries and

you’re going to use kefir okay i would

use organic cal and organic blueberries

and i would keep them in the freezer

okay keep them in the freezer they’re

much easier to blend so you just take

your blender out and you take two cups

of kale frozen and you can break it up

into little chunks just put two cups of

kale in there because it blends really

nicely when it’s cold and it tastes

better too and then you put one cup of

blueberries blueberries not only have

curicin but so does kale kirsoten is the

ultimate weapon against the fatty liver

not to mention its involvement in many

other aspects of your health including

having a stronger immune system but

kercetin is a

is a fabulous vital nutrient to target a

fatty liver but there’s many other

things in kale and blueberries that also

help you with fatty liver and liver

function in general so we take two cups

of frozen kale okay put in a blender we

take one cup of frozen blueberries okay

we put a cup of water and we also put

one cup of plain whole fat

kefir okay don’t get the flavored kind

don’t get the sweetened kind get the

organic if possible

grass-fed if possible whole milk plain

kefir that’s going to give you the

probiotics that you need to reduce fat

on your liver so we have the water the

kefir the kale and the blueberries and

then you’re going to simply blend this

up for a couple minutes okay and blend

it up really nicely and then chug it

down it tastes really good and it’s

extremely effective in reducing fat on

your liver and do that every single day

in combination with a healthy keto diet

as well as intermittent fasting now if

you haven’t seen my video on how to

reduce a fatty liver within 14 days
