How to cleanse a fatty liver?
The liver is the largest “chemical factory” of the human body and its largest detoxifier, as it does important metabolic processes. Therefore, there is no life without the liver. And interestingly, diseased or fatty livers don’t hurt until it’s too late. The disease is mostly asymptomatic and doctors may detect it accidentally if there are alarmingly high levels of liver enzymes in the blood.
Fatty liver: silent killer of our body
Fatty liver is a disease of modern times and a result of an unhealthy lifestyle. We talk about fatty liver when the fat exceeds 5% of the weight of the liver. Fats are accumulated in the liver cells or hepatocytes, and interfere the cell’s normal functioning. If the excessive accumulation of fat in the liver cells is accompanied by inflammation, we are talking about steatohepatitis, which can lead to fibrosis and liver cirrhosis, which further leads to the collapse of this organ, that at the beginning of the disease onset manifests as jaundice.
Fatty liver does not show any symptoms that would alert the patient or the doctor, but it may progress to liver cirrhosis and complications, such as swelling in the abdomen and legs, gastrointestinal bleeding, severe immunosuppression, repeated infections, kidney and lung failure, and even liver cancer! Fatigue, lack of appetite and decreased concentration commonly occur in many diseases, but they may be signs of liver disease as well!
Why does a fatty liver occur?
This disease is associated with the metabolic syndrome, a result of the unhealthy lifestyle of today’s modern life. It is manifested as a central obesity around the waist, diabetes, high blood lipid levels or high blood pressure.
Best prevention and treatment are healthy lifestyle, healthy balanced diet, regular and daily physical activity, as well as moderate, occasional alcohol consumption.
Milk thistle and silymarin – support for a healthy liver
Most of the Slovenians often like to enjoy in a glass of alcoholic beverage. That’s why fatty liver is a problem that face as many as 30 percent of people!
It was believed that only people who resort to excessive consumption of alcohol, might have liver problems. But unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, smoking, lack of sleep and daily stress are among the main factors for the problem that every third Slovenian faces! Most are unaware that fatty liver is the cause of many of their problems and malaise.
Milk thistle is a plant from the Asteraceae family, it has purple flowers and pale green leaves with white veins. At first it grew only in southern Europe and Asia, now it is found everywhere.
The fruits of the milk thistle are being used for the medicinal preparations. The fruit contains flavonoids, also known as silymarin. The most important active ingredients are silibinin, silychristin and silydianin. These compounds have a beneficial effect on liver function, so extracts from the fruit of the milk thistle are used to prevent and alleviate liver disease, as well as cleanse the fatty liver. The milk thistle has a fruit and a shiny seed coat. The smell of freshly ground seeds is reminiscent of the smell of cocoa.
Besides the silymarin, the fruit contains 15 – 30% of fats and 20 – 30% of protein. Mainly, silymarin is found in the protein layer of the seed coat. Resent studies have shown that silymarin promotes faster regeneration of cells isolated from kidney tissue, which were damaged because of the use of analgesics, cytostatics or other drugs and toxic substances.
Scientists predict that even liver damage caused by cancer chemotherapy could be treated with the help of milk thistle or silymarin dietary supplements.
