i’d like to discuss the seven warning

signs of cirrhosis now there are a lot

of additional symptoms but there are

seven main symptoms that you need to be

aware of so cirrhosis is an advanced

liver problem it’s end stage liver

disease

and really what we have is

normal cells being replaced with scar

tissue so the scar tissue comes in

to try to heal the area but the problem

is we also lost function at the same

time now what’s fascinating about the

liver is that it has incredible

reparative cells

normally these cells lie dormant until

some injury comes along whether it’s

alcohol

nicotine from smoking drugs medication

junk food

seed oils like in corn oil soil oil

which create inflammation or refined

sugars carbohydrates and especially

fructose but you also have viruses too

so some people get themselves into a

situation where they have either

inflammation that’s going on in the

liver that becomes chronic or they

develop a fatty liver which then creates

inflammation and it’s really the

inflammation that triggers

these very interesting repair cells and

when these cells are chronically

irritated

they develop a very specialized type of

cell called a

myofibroblast now what is that that’s a

combination between

a contractile tissue

and collagen which is pretty interesting

that your cell is repairing with this

muscle-like contractile tissue but the

problem is you lose function your risk

for cancer in the liver goes way up when

you get cirrhosis and because the liver

makes about a liter of bile every single

day you’re going to get insufficient

bile which is going to affect your

digestion especially fats omega-3 fat

soluble vitamins and the elimination of

cholesterol and toxins because you need

bile as a way to help transport this

toxic material out of the body also

vitamin a is affected your liver

retains and stores a lot of vitamin a so

without a good functioning liver

you’re going to be low in vitamin a and

there goes the vision there goes the the

skin there goes your immune system also

iron is a problem because your liver

stores iron so either you can become

severely anemic

or excess iron that is stuck in your

body which is actually quite common can

create more cirrhosis but the liver

being damaged lowers your ability to

retain iron so it can go both ways

the liver stores glycogen which is

stored glucose to help you

go through the night without eating to

help you go from one meal to the next

also certain parts of the body

need glycogen they can’t run on ketones

a hundred percent so there’s the lens of

the eye as part of the kidney

part of your brain need glucose so if

you’re not able to hold the glucose in

the liver then these tissues do suffer

and just as a side note because your

body does need some sugar it doesn’t

mean you should consume sugar your body

can make it from non-carbohydrate

sources the liver is also involved in

digestion

carbs protein and fats so that’s going

to be impaired also it’s not going to

eliminate the toxins fully so you’re

going to get a backup of toxic material

in the body and it usually shows up in

your skin

in other places and the endocrine system

the liver makes a lot of cholesterol but

it also gets rid of cholesterol with the

help of bile but if there’s liver damage

you can’t get rid of the cholesterol so

it kind of backs up into the tissues

also your liver is pathogens so if you

can’t do that you can end up with

systemic infections the liver makes

blood proteins so if there’s

insufficient protein in the blood

what happens

is we get interstitial fluid you start

getting fluid that’s backing up into the

tissues as edema in your lower legs you

start getting fluid retention

around your abdomen like between the

tissues that’s called the cities so when

you see someone who has this protruded

belly like a beer belly

it’s a liver problem

igf insulin-like growth factor this

hormone is made by your liver it’s

triggered by growth hormone it kind of

works similar to growth hormone so if we

don’t have enough of this hormone then

we’re going to have multiple problems

which involve the building of a protein

also we’re going to have certain types

of problems in mobilizing fuel for the

body what’s interesting is the liver

converts

a good portion of the thyroid from t4 to

t3 in fact

80 percent of this conversion takes

place in the liver and t4 is the

inactive thyroid hormone and t3 is the

active form so if there is liver damage

whether you have

a fatty liver or

cirrhosis of the liver

it dramatically affects the thyroid and

then you have a whole cascade of thyroid

symptoms on top of that

you need the liver to activate vitamin d

you also need the kidney and by the way

if the liver is damaged

you’re not going to have a really

healthy kidney so when one goes they

both go because they work together but

vitamin d needs that liver and so

because vitamin d is so so important in

your immune system in getting rid of

pain

and keeping your blood pressure lowered

you can imagine all the different

additional consequences of just this one

thing right here

the liver also buffers certain hormones

like estrogen cortisol which is a stress

hormone so with liver damage

you can’t buffer these hormones so you

get this spike in cortisol you get a

spike in estrogen you see a lot of men

that are estrogen dominant because of

the liver you can’t control that there’s

another hormone testosterone which

really gets messed up with the liver

because what happens is you get a lot

less free testosterone with the liver so

then you have a problem with someone

with erectile dysfunction so they start

getting on viagra

and they never actually address

the root problem which is the liver and

then we have another

liver function called blood clotting so

without that you bleed easily okay you

bruise

easily you have these red spots you just

barely bump yourself and it turns into

this like hematoma all right so now

let’s get into the seven signs that you

may have cirrhosis number one dark urine

one of the functions of liver is to help

to

recycle red blood cells and the

byproduct of red blood cells and so when

that doesn’t occur

we get a darker urine okay so that’s one

clue

number two

mood and personality changes now why

because with the liver being damaged you

can’t break down

ammonium okay so you start getting this

buildup of ammonium into the brain and

it affects all sorts of

neurotransmitters you can actually even

go into a coma okay you could have

inflammation of the brain because of

this ammonium

the remedy that the medical profession

uses is called lactolose and that

actually helps

turn

ammonium into ammonia which is less

toxic to the brain

all right number three we have ascites i

mentioned that that is a fluid-filled

sac in your gut that is not fat it’s

it’s like fluid that’s leaking from the

liver into your abdomen that’s a huge

clue that you have liver cirrhosis right

there

all right now number four jaundice the

whites of the eyes become yellow your

skin becomes like a yellowish orange

okay that’s because things are backing

up into the blood and the skin

because the liver is connected to the

circulatory system and it’s stopping a

lot of blood flow i mean you’re also

probably gonna have high blood pressure

on top of that as well number five

you’re gonna be tired no matter how much

sleep that you get number six

you have this chronic discomfort in the

right upper abdomen right here right

where your liver is

i had this problem for 12 years i didn’t

know what it was

i wouldn’t say i had cirrhosis but i had

inflammation in my liver i was in my

late 20s when i finally figured it out

and changed my diet dramatically you may

even have some discomfort that runs up

into the right side through here

number seven itchy hot feet is another

clue that there could be cirrhosis all

right so those are the seven

signs now what do we do about it that’s

the next question well

there’s a plan that i have for you

number one you have to stop whatever is

causing

the problem get to the root cause okay

whether this is involving

your diet because you’re eating a lot of

junk food

deep fried foods fried in

soy oil or corn oil which is the worst

or you’re drinking too much alcohol

taking drugs

too many medications could cause to

cause this problem too and so you may

want to get with your doctor and

try to use more natural remedies for

example

there are a lot of benefits

using milk thistle milk thistle is

probably one of the most

powerful

natural remedies for the liver so

whether you have arthritis

maybe you have fluid retention

you should probably look up milk thistle

and see how many different conditions it

helps

and you may be able to replace with some

of your medications but of course check

with your doctor now a lot of people

have too much iron and so one clue that

you have too much iron is that when you

consume red meat you feel worse or

when you

give blood you feel better suspect you

have too much iron i have a lot of

information on that i will put some

links down below but let’s say for

example you have an autoimmune disease

of your liver and that’s what’s creating

the cirrhosis there are some things you

can do about it

one thing you can take which is very

interesting

is you can take a decoy

you can take

actual liver pills okay like bovine

liver pills and just take one before bed

what happens is the antibodies that are

attacking your liver

attack the decoy in your stomach while

you’re sleeping and so it reduces

the inflammation of the liver and it

gives the liver a chance to kind of

reset and when you do this over a period

of months it could potentially deplete

these natural tissue antibodies

and help the whole situation okay that’s

number one number two

tutka what is takka

i’ve done videos on this tudka is a very

special type of a bile salt that’s

really good for your liver

there’s been some interesting studies

showing significant improvement in

cirrhosis as well as a fatty liver as

well as decreasing liver enzymes okay

and i’ll put those links down below

you need to take at least 750 milligrams

to 1500 milligrams you can split it up

take through the day take it an empty

stomach

but i think you feel a lot better when

you take this if you have cirrhosis

because it really

opens up and allows the bile to flow

through the liver and it gives the

person a lot of relief with their

symptoms that they have

is this going to totally cure your liver

i have no idea but it can definitely

help the situation the next natural

remedy is toe katrina’s this is a

special vitamin e

group of

compounds

which

work like 50 times stronger than

tocopherols and it’s really good at

breaking up fibrous tissue scar tissue

and if you

research tocotrienols with cirrhosis

you’ll find some interesting data i

would take at least 300 milligrams per

day

number four cruciferous

why because

people with cirrhosis start to build up

estrogen in their bodies they can’t

eliminate it so you need something that

can help

boost the enzymes to detoxify excessive

amounts of estrogen

as well as other toxins there’s a lot of

phytonutrients

in cruciferous vegetables and the liver

loves bitter vegetables so like radishes

broccoli

kale

all really good for the liver and number

five i highly suggest you start keto not

just any keto the healthy version of

keto immediately i have a plan for you

on my website go to doctorberg.com

download it and you can start on that

and finally number six adding fasting to

this can be very very beneficial

not just intermittent fasting but

prolonged

fasting periodically okay like 48 hours

sometimes 72 hours why

because it’s going to induce autophagy

this is a state where your body is

recycling

damaged proteins and that’s exactly what

you have going on in the liver

so

by clearing out some of these old

proteins in the liver

it can be very beneficial to the

overwhelming inflammatory process

the the problem is there’s no drugs that

can fix cirrhosis okay

they can’t

because it’s more toxins to the body so

people get on the transplant list for a

new liver and in the united states

there’s like 15 000 people

that are on the list waiting to get a

new

liver but what do you do in the meantime

right here this right here do this plan

don’t do nothing there are things you

can do right now to at least prolong

your life

and reduce the complications

that’s occurring and i’m not saying that

you can completely get rid of it it

might be too far gone but at least you

can improve the situation it’ll give you

more time to survive longer i think the

next best video which is a very

interesting interesting video that i

have is on this tutka you should check

it out it’s pretty interesting i’ll put

it up right here

you
