this is a very interesting topic i  found the study that demonstrated  

that you could actually reduce your  liver fat by almost 50 in just two  

weeks and i’m not kidding this is not a joke this  is a credible study there’s a 14-day intervention  

study putting people on a carbohydrate restrictive  diet this is called the ketogenic diet where they  

consumed less than 30 grams of carbohydrates per  day and this demonstrated decreased liver fat  

by 43.8 percent so it’s not actually 50  but it’s close in subjects with obesity and  

what is that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease  now there are several other interesting things  

about this number one there wasn’t much weight  loss on average there was only like a 1.8 percent  

weight loss which is pretty insignificant and  there is no change in waist circumference now  

this is very good information to know because  if you started a ketogenic diet and you lost  

hardly any weight the first week  and there’s no change in your waste  

you might just quit and think it’s not working  apparently the body gets rid of liver fat  

and organ fat as a priority before  it goes after other types of fat  

and apparently the loss of liver fat was due to  decreased something called d noble lipogenesis  

what is that that means there’s a greatly reduced  conversion from carbohydrates to fat there’s like  

a 79.8 percent decrease so no longer are we  getting this conversion from carbohydrates  

to fat and there was also an increase in actual  overall fat burning called fatty acid oxidation  

by just under 5x so we had this five times  greater fat oxidation or fat burning effect  

in the liver amazing now there’s some also very  interesting additional things on this study  

first of all the participants did not lower  their calories the average amount of calories  

per day was over three thousand so this was not  a globe calorie diet there was also significant  

lower markers for liver damage significant lower  fasting insulin levels and lowered homa ir which  

means there was less insulin resistance there  was improved insulin sensitivity there was lower  

liver inflammation and there was a rapid increase  in folate producing bacteria and folate in their  

blood so apparently in the ketogenic diet your  microbes make more folate now what is up with this  

folate what does the folate do in relationship  to your liver well it improves liver fat  

metabolism and it keeps liver inflammation on  the low side and they found 94 bacterial strains  

were altered after going on this low carb  diet with major shifts in microbes occurring  

just in one day if you’re new to my channel or  you’re not new you’ve been watching my videos and  

you haven’t started ketogenic diet i think this  right here is a good enough reason to get started  

right away so i put a link down below the exact  version of the ketogenic diet you need to start  

immediately check it out hey before you go  if you’re benefiting from any of my content  

i would love to hear about your success  story please share it in the link down below
