Manage episode 394544720 series 3527974
Unlock the secrets to protecting your liver within the quiet world of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)!
This episode is an essential listen for anyone concerned about the silent epidemic sweeping across not just adults but also our youth. We navigate the treacherous path from harmless fat accumulation to the life-threatening stages of cirrhosis, which can leave one grappling with the prospect of a liver transplant. For my fellow post-menopausal women, the risks are even more pronounced, and we tackle the intricate web of obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome that feeds this condition. But it's not just a tale of risks; I'm here to arm you with the knowledge to spot the subtle symptoms and take proactive measures to keep your liver in check, especially when certain lifestyle choices and medications could invite NAFLD into your life.
As we dissect the misconceptions fueling fatty liver disease, you'll learn why it's time to shift our focus from a mythical pharmaceutical cure to the transformative power of lifestyle changes. Refined sugars, especially the stealthy fructose in processed foods, emerge as a prominent villain in the NAFLD saga, but I'll show you how the natural sugars in fruits and veggies play a far more benign role, thanks to their fibrous entourage. The episode is packed with practical advice to navigate the misleading world of food labels and make choices that support your liver health. You'll leave equipped with the knowledge to sidestep the traps of hidden sugars and empowered with strategies to potentially reverse the impact of fatty liver disease—your liver will thank you.
Tune in as we Thrive Through Menopause together!
