we’ll share some interesting uh data

related to foods that you can eat to

strip off the fat from your liver fatty

liver disease is

huge

i mean if we’re just talking about a

non-alcoholic

fatty liver disease we’re talking about

1.7

billion people on this planet and then

when you get into fatty liver that’s

caused by alcohol that’s another huge

percent and this is not counting the

people who drink alcohol that develop a

fatty liver

so

both non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

and alcoholic fatty liver disease

same problem

different causes okay

now i’m excited to

share um a tool that helped me find a

lot of this information it’s called

illicit.org okay

it’s an incredible search tool it goes

out into i think over 200 million

research papers and it helps you find

certain pieces of information that are

sometimes hard to find when you’re doing

google searches okay i’ll put a link

down below it’s very very helpful and so

today we’re going to talk about the

foods that you should be eating to help

remove fat from your liver well on the

flip side i should also tell you what

foods

will worsen the liver the big one is

fructose okay

the thing that’s unique about fructose

is that fructose is a type of sugar

that cannot be dealt with

by all of your cells in your body like

glucose

only by your liver cells so anytime you

consume

high fructose corn syrup or any type of

fructose from fruit

the liver is forced to deal with it and

if you overload the liver with too much

fructose

you start developing a fatty liver even

now fructose is low on the glycemic

index and of course anything that will

increase insulin can contribute to a

fatty liver that would be like sugar

refined carbohydrates there are also

other things like inflammation that can

cause a fatty liver and so we have this

whole stage of

inflammation fatty liver

scar tissue of the liver cirrhosis and

then of course you have insulin

resistance in the liver that can

actually increase more

insulin and create more fatty liver and

then of course having the fatty liver

itself can create more inflammation

which can worsen the insulin resistance

so it’s a it’s a never-ending cycle but

if you’re standing up and you look down

at your shoes and you can’t see your

shoes because of your belly in the way

you definitely have a fatty liver but

even if you don’t have a belly you could

still have a fatty liver

that’s called skinny fat and before we

get into it if you have not seen my

video

on how to remove 50

of the fat off your liver in two weeks

using the ketogenic diet and

intermittent fasting i will put that

link down below we want foods that also

have a good ratio of high omega-3 fatty

acids to low omega-6 fatty acids because

omega-3 fats can help remove the fat off

the liver the other thing i want to

mention that’s also very

counter-intuitive

short-chain fatty acids they’re fats

and they can help get rid of fat off

your liver because they can

significantly improve insulin resistance

and the way that your body can create

short chain fatty acids

is by consuming fiber that feed the

microbes and then the microbes make

these short chain fatty acids as a

byproduct and i want to mention this

before we get into the foods

there’s all sorts of phytonutrients okay

plant-based

compounds

that dramatically lower inflammation

which can indirectly help you

reduce fat on your liver

curcumin okay from turmeric like

resveratrol which also comes in grapes

and then sometimes people start eating

the grapes the problem is they have

fructose so that’s going to counter that

effect

and or they might start consuming wine

because that has resveratrol the problem

is the alcohol in the wine creates liver

damage so it’s not going to help you

then you have this very powerful

compound in green tea which is e g c g

and even in many supplements or spices

like the phytonutrient in black seed

called thymoquinone is a very powerful

compound to help strip fat off your

liver and other things you can do

like fasting especially

and exercise can help decrease fat off

your liver and even the vitamin d from

the sun can help you remove fat off the

liver vitamin a and vitamin e

both help reduce fat on your liver but

as far as foods go let’s go ahead and

cover that right now okay

all of the cruciferous vegetables

significantly help reduce fat on the

liver so we’re talking about arugula

broccoli brussels sprouts

cabbage

radish swiss chard you have this high

fiber relatively low carb low sugar

food with the fiber the other vegetable

that’s very very potent for removing fat

from the liver is dandelion greens now

it’s a bit thicker or the texture is a

little bit harder to chew it’s not as

tender as salad but i grow dandelion

greens in my greenhouse and it’s a

really good greens to add to your salad

because of its potent liver effects not

just for a fatty liver but for many

other problems with the liver and

salmon okay wild caught salmon why

because of the high amounts of omega-3

omega-3 fats help strip the fat off the

liver but i did find a study

by using that tool illicit that

consuming farm-raised

salmon

worsened the fat on the liver

so you’d want to do wild caught salmon

and then we have olive oil olive oil is

a

certain fat that can help get rid of fat

in your liver plus olive oil is very

anti-inflammatory but it has some really

good potent phytonutrients just make

sure

it’s not the fake olive oil which is so

common nowadays so spend a little bit

more money on a quality olive oil that

that actually really will create the

effects that you want now probiotics

okay

help get rid of fat on your liver so

that would include probiotic foods like

fermented vegetables especially

sauerkraut

kimchi and you can even use kefir okay

as a fermented food product that can

help you the next two vegetables which

i’m going to include based on the

research i found garlic and onion okay

both have very powerful effects on

getting rid of fat on your liver so

definitely start including more garlic

and onion in your meals and the last one

is not really a food but it’s a drink

coffee believe it or not

coffee has the potential to help you

strip fat off of your liver

of course i’m only going to recommend

doing one cup because the excess

caffeine can keep you up at night but

the catholic acid and other uh chemicals

in coffee

even caffeine helps reduce fat on your

liver and green tea and black tea

also can help you reduce fat on your

liver so i just wanted to give you uh

some practical things to do if you have

a fatty liver and i put that very

important video up of how to get rid of

50 of your fat off the liver within two

weeks so check it out it’s right here
