hey guys in this video we’re gonna talk

about a fatty liver and your thyroid

okay if you have a fatty liver chances

are that’s going to slow your thyroid

down because let’s take from the top

high levels of insulin from a lot of

refined carbohydrates and frequent

eating will put fat on the liver

you’re going to get inflammation and

you’re gonna get scar tissue which will

eventually develop into something called

cirrhosis in fact this is called

non-alcoholic fatty liver disease okay

this can also come from being an

alcoholic so the damage from high

insulin from a lot of sugar is almost

identical from the damage from alcohol

especially if you’re consuming it from

high fructose corn syrup okay because

the fructose really will damage the

liver or faster than other sugars and

the average American consumes forty four

point seven gallons of liquid sugar

every single year okay so how do you

know if you have a fatty liver well if

you have a gut you’re gonna have a fatty

liver okay because the fat is spilling

over from the liver around the abdomen

it’s called the visceral fat however the

best way to identify a fatty liver is

ultrasound but what’s going to happen if

you have a fatty liver the function of

the liver is gonna go down and the

cholesterol is going to start building

up too because you’re going to get a

decrease of production of bile so when

you have a liver damage and not enough

bile

you can’t effectively remove cholesterol

too well okay so that’s one problem and

then we have the thyroid over here the

thyroid produces a hormone called t4 and

then the liver helps you convert t4 to

t3 which is the active form of a fire at

hormone this is inactive this is active

if the liver is damaged

you’re not going to convert enough into

t3 and you’re going to have a condition

known as hypothyroidism so now you have

a slow thyroid which will then build up

more cholesterol slow your metabolism

cause more weight gain so really high

insulin will affect your thyroid

because of the liver all right so what

do you do well what you do is you get on

keto and another fascinating to handle

this okay

increase a lot of cruciferous vegetables

increase vegetables in general to help

heal the fatty liver over time you can

reverse this if it’s not too far gone

the next thing I would recommend is

choline you can get it in a powdered

form some people are mixing it with the

electrolyte powder to make it taste

better but choline is the B vitamin to

help remove the fat off the liver pretty

fast I mean you can do it within within

months so I would add that in there with

really healthy cruciferous vegetables

and doing a version of keto I call

healthy ketosis and of course in a

minute fasting that’s how you’re going

to handle the fatty liver that’s how you

can improve your thyroid all right
