Welcome to the VitaLife Show. I'm doctor Janine Bowring a naturopathic doctor and
today's topic is all about a fatty liver now what a fatty liver is is an increase
in the fat inside the liver cells and this can compromise a healthy liver
function and this can cause unfortunately then inflammation and
scarring you can get pain and fatigue but most times people have a fatty liver
because they know so because the doctor said that they have found it on their testing
and this is something that you know you may have for years and years
and years and not even know it well the causes are seemed pretty random it could
be due to alcohol for sure or not so people that even you know don't consume
alcoholic beverages may still have a fatty liver
diabetes is also a risk factor as well as certain medications and malnutrition
is not getting enough of essential nutrients that we need every day can
also cause of fatty liver now toxicity is also a big concern and that's why in
terms of treating a fatty liver naturally detox is you know the number
one priority in terms of natural treatment so in terms of the diet what's
best actually decrease the sugar in your diet and trans fats and especially in
terms of sugar that high fructose corn syrup
this is even worse than sugar spikes your insulin levels and this can has a
negative effect on the way that your liver is functioning increase
anti-inflammatory foods so the favorites of course are the Omega three's things
like nuts and seeds cold freshwater fish are always best always good to take
high-quality fish oil supplement which will talk about in just a moment if you
can't get enough fish into your diet which I actually don't recommend any
more because of the toxicity levels in fish and you know not knowing how many
PCBs and dioxins and heavy metals that you're actually getting
in your fish if you're eating fish also increase your fruits and vegetables in
your diet is a raw fruits and vegetables are always best we actually created a
product called by the VitaFruits and VitaVeggies you can check it out on our website
vitatree.com for people you know like most of us who just can't get enough raw
fruits and vegetables into the diet on a daily basis now one of the great things
to do for a fatty liver is actually a castor oil pack. So we do have video here
on the VitaLife Show all of the castor oil pack how to do that properly so do
check that out. Detoxification so I promised that I would share this product
this is actually our own formulations I actually formulated called the VitaDetox
based on my years of practice over the years as a naturopathic doctor working
with my patients knowing what worked what didn't work in terms of detoxifying
especially the liver but also all of the internal organs and that's what the
VitaDetox does its total body cleanse for all of the internal organs very very
gentle you don't have to worry about that you won't be running to the
washroom but it's a first supplement of choice when I'm treating
fatty liver that we're using in terms of normalizing liver function as well as it
also helps to regenerate healthy liver cells so that you know incredible in
terms of that formulation also Vitamin D3 is really really important so there's
been a link
related to having a fatty liver and not having a Vitamin D3 so that's another
supplement that you can take certainly get as much natural sunlight as possible
to you know large parts of your body and your skin so that you can convert into
Vitamin D3 on a daily basis and the VitaFish Oil. The VitaFish Oil omega-3
fatty acids fish oil supplement probably the safest way to get your omega-3 in
a high concentration you can check that out at vitatree.com so thanks for
