hey guys today we’re gonna use the foot as a way of diagnosing the liver

and of course my disclaimer here is that you’re not really diagnosing a liver

disease you have to go to the doctor and have them do tests to figure that out

but this will give you some good clues on a potential problem with your liver

okay that being said let’s dive in and these are just little indicators that

can actually help you narrow things down the first thing we’re going to talk

about is the little red and brown dots they can be larger and smaller and you

can also have like little shininess to them they’re usually on the lower leg

that is poor circulation and that is usually a liver problem it could also be

diabetes it could be many other things but you see this a lot when people have

liver problems so the actual appearance of the lower leg and the foot gives a

lot of great information about the overall health of the person because the

heart has to send blood all the way down to your feet and then back through the

vascular system and usually if there’s a liver problem or a heart problem

whatever there’s gonna be a vascular problem and you’re gonna see it in this

part of your body a lot because the poor circulation that’s occurring so a lot of

these problems happen at a the greatest distance from the heart and also even

with diabetes for example you see neurological problems in your feet in

your hands because of that fact because it affects the distal fingers which is

the the point furthest away from the heart okay so you’ll see red and brown

little discoloration type specks on the lower leg and then something called

spider veins or another name would be spider nevus which usually see this in

cirrhosis and what’s happening to the liver is you’re building up a lot of

estrogen and too much estrogen can affect the vascular system so you can

see varicose veins and spider veins and you can see them in the lower legs then

we have cracked heels okay this is usually a vitamin b3 deficiency or an

omega-3 fatty acid deficiency why because one of the functions of the

liver is to make bile and help you absorb these fatty acids not just

omega-3 fatty acids but vitamin A which could be involved in the skin vitamin E

which could be involved in the skin those are fat soluble vitamins but

vitamin b3 also affects the skin other B vitamins also can affect the skin as

well just how they relate to the cofactor the to help the enzymes work

especially with proteins so b3 deficiency can create a problem another

name for that would be pellagra people with pellagra which is a B 3 deficiency

have a lot of skin issues all right each of the foot usually in the bottom of the

foot that is a backup of fluids into the liver it’s a congested liver

it could be bio backing up and you’re getting a buildup of histamines a

congested liver so you could have itching in the foot also you can have

pain or inflammation in the bottom of the foot a lot of times people associate

that with something called plantar fasciitis where it’s really not quite a

fasciitis it’s just a liver problem and then you also have hot feet hot feet is

another symptom of a bad liver and then we have bad odor so you have smelly feet

why because the liver is not able to detoxify correctly and it’s backing up

through the skin usually it delivers bad the person’s diet is pretty bad and the

entire body is backed up with garbage and especially the large intestine and

the kidneys and it’s coming out through the skin so you can’t just have a really

terrible unhealthy bad liver and have a very healthy kidney or colon there if

one is bad they’re usually all pretty congested and unhealthy okay

pitting edema that’s where you press your finger into the lower leg and it

leaves a dent and it just stays there that’s fluid back up that’s a common

liver symptom and then we have fungus toenail fungus people with liver

problems have a higher level of fungus growing on their body because they’re

they’re usually have an imbalance in the micro flora and the gut and that is

going to relate to an overgrowth of fungus and yeast and the outside of the

body so that’s why you see like dandruff and psoriasis toenail fungus and then

the the nail bed in it you can actually happen on the hands or the

feet the nail bed is going to be white you’re gonna usually lose that little

moon shape thing Luna down here so it’s going to be white because of the poor

circulation that’s occurring on that now bad alright so then the next question is

what really causes liver problems a lot of things one big one is the side effect

from medications another one is a lot of sugar in the diet especially high

fructose corn syrup cooked foods so if you’re just having canned foods which

are pasteurized and you’re not having anything raw that’s eventually going to

be very very hard on the liver and the kidney and also a lack of any vegetables

and if you’re eating junk food combined with that you have no enzymes to put in

the body no antioxidants from these vegetables so

that can be a problem excessive alcohol that’s a given

and then excessive protein so if you’re doing massive amounts of protein it

built up a lot of nitrogen waste over time that can then overload the liver

and the kidney and put a lot of stress on and so if there is liver damage or

kidney damage you want to go a little lower on the protein higher in the

vegetables okay so now what is a good diet for the liver

now if you’re new to my channel click the link down below I will show you a

combination of a healthy ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting okay so that’s why

I’m gonna recommend for those of you that are not new and you’ve been on my
