hey guys today we’re going to talk about a very unconventional uncommon counterintuitive

fatty liver cleansing tip okay before I get into the tip I just want to

give you some basics about the liver the liver is about three and a half pounds

it sits over on the right side right about here it has 500 different

functions here’s the problem when someone develops a fatty liver there is

virtually no symptoms at all now you start to develop a gut but it’s very

rare to have symptoms until it starts becoming more advanced and then

eventually the person starts getting fatigued weak nausea abdominal pain

right shoulder pain pain in the upper right trap maybe some headaches on the

right side pain in the right rhomboid back here but what happens is you have

this fatty liver and then eventually after years of inflammation you get

cirrhosis and this is scar tissue now builds up in the liver and in this

process you basically lose function of the liver you lose the ability to

detoxify okay so you build up toxic waste you also build up excessive

amounts of cortisol because the liver is the organ to help buffer and regulate

excessive amounts of cortisol that’s the stress hormone this is one of the causes

to a an adrenal fatigue problem also you start building up excessive amounts of

estrogen this can manifest as many different things one man boobs a woman

that’s estrogen dominant you can have cancer so a functional liver is really

important in the detoxification and regulation of these two hormones right

here the other problem is when you have less function of the liver you get less

bile production and if you’re not producing a bile

you can’t break down toxic waste you can’t break down fats you can’t actually

absorb vitamin A D e K omega-3 fatty acids and the list goes on and on and on

now there’s two different categories of a fatty liver one would be caused from

drinking too much alcohol the other one is not the other one is a non-alcoholic

fatty liver disease you can develop that from eating very poorly and the big

thing that causes a fatty liver would be fructose in the form of

high-fructose corn syrup it’s in the sodas it’s in the food in

fact fructose is 20 times more likely to cause of fatty liver than any other

sugars and as far as the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease 25 percent of the

population actually has this but not just overweight people not just people

with a gut skinny people are twice as likely to die from a fatty liver then

overweight people probably because they’re skinny and they think they’re

healthy and they can eat whatever they want so they do eat whatever they want

now this next point was quite interesting there’s actually many

studies on this but here’s what happens when mice are fed methionine and choline

deficient diets they get a fatty liver but they don’t gain weight they don’t

get insulin resistance or diabetes they just get a fatty liver the thine eyne is

an amino acid in choline is an essential nutrient in the B vitamin family and the

thine eyne is a precursor a building block to the most powerful antioxidant

in the body which is called glutathione which is a software-based compound that

helps you break down chemicals and choline is a called a lipid trophic

nutrient it actually dissolves fat in the body and it can actually strip off

fat from your liver so now let’s get into the counterintuitive tip I’m going

to talk about typically when you think about liver cleansing or getting rid of

a liver problem you’re thinking of juicing a vegetable cleanse consuming

low fats consuming lower amounts meats things like that however when you do

that you only get a certain amount of results because check this out the foods

that are loaded with choline are egg yolks

liver grass-fed dairy and cruciferous vegetable okay math I’m you have beef

chicken pork nuts fish eggs so two of the most important nutrients in

correcting or reversing a fatty liver involve foods

higher in fat and protein so if you want to cleanse and heal a fetid liver you

don’t want to go low-fat you don’t want to keep your protein too low moderate

protein not excessive but you don’t want to start cutting out all these foods

right here so instead of doing juicing or only vegetables you should do a

combination of the cruciferous vegetables and fattier proteins

including egg yolks and fish of course make sure they’re grass-fed now there’s

two goals with detoxifying a fatty liver one is to get rid of the toxins of

course because the liver has a function of detoxification so the cruciferous

vegetables are loaded with the phytonutrients to help create this

effect and by the way certain animal products organ meats fish seafood also

have antioxidants to help remove toxins from your liver it’s not just vegetables

so we want to actually do something to get rid of the toxins as well as get rid

of the fat and to do this you must lower your carbs and this is why healthy keto

the healthy version of keto is necessary and that basically means the concept of

low carb with a lot of vegetables so that would be essential and then of

course in a minute fasting why because of intermittent fasting forces your body

to use up your glycogen Reserve and to run off fat so it kind of creates a

vacuum to pull the fat out of the body and that’s what’s needed to start to

deplete the fat in the liver I also suggest that you take choline as a

supplement you can get methionine from the protein and you can also get choline

but if you take some extra choline I recommend about 4 to 500 milligrams

you can even go as high as 3,000 milligrams if you want but typically I

always start out about 300 to 400 milligrams of choline you can get in a

tablet or get into powder and start consuming that what that will do it will

start to dissolve the fat and the liver and speed up the process so of course we

want to add the crisps I would recommend steaming or slightly

cooking these because that will release more vital nutrients eggs are essential

for the choline quality protein of course don’t get this at 7-eleven go to

the health of store and increase the quality and the last point I want to

bring up which is really important is if you try to cleanse the liver especially

if it’s a fatty liver with a low fat diet you will not have enough bile to

help detoxify it one of the functions of bio is detoxification so bile is not

just about absorbing fats on the vitamins it is about making sure the

liver can purge some of the toxic wastes and what triggers bile higher amounts of

saturated fats this is why you want to keep consuming egg yolks maybe even

organ meats and moderate amounts of protein to make sure you release the

bile and you don’t become deficient in methionine or choline alright guys well
