Improvement in catering habits can reduce liver disease by 50 percent
New -Delhi, April 18 (IANS). Medical experts on Friday emphasized that there is a significant link between liver health and our food. If we can bring healthy changes to our lifestyle, liver -related diseases can be reduced by 50 percent. Prior to the Liver Day (April 19), doctors said that the treasure of health was hidden in our food. Nowadays, liver -related diseases are increasing in cities as well as towns. Earlier, the cause of liver disease was mostly considered alcohol, but now people are suffering from ‘non-alcoholic fatty liver disease’ without drinking alcohol. The reason for this is wrong eating, obesity and lack of physical activities. A great research published in the magazine “Frontiers in Nutrition” indicates that people who eat such things that increase the body (eg fried and processed) are at risk for severe liver disease, which includes chronic liver disease (CLD). On the contrary, this danger decreases in meditrarenic diet and good nutritional foods. Dr Sanjeev Saigal, president of the Liver Transplanting Association of India, says: “About 50 percent of liver diseases can only be prevented from improving food. The liver damage due to alcohol, processed foods and lazy lifestyle can also be cured by the right diet.” The liver has a tremendous ability to heal itself. If the right lifestyle is adopted in time, the damage of years can also be resurrected. If we eat fresh fruits, green vegetables, whole grains and protein, the disease can not only be avoided, but the liver can also be repaired. Dr. Saigal says: “When patients start eating clean and balanced food, the liver condition becomes better, energy yields in the body and good health stay long long. If we adopt fresh fruits, vegetables, household foods, plenty of water and food, we can avoid liver disease. But sugar -filled drinks, junk food and fast food liver are harmful. Another research published in the magazine ‘Nutrients’ indicates that the thick children who eat too much sweet and processed food get liver disease ‘masld’. These children collect a lot of ‘fructose’ (found in sweet drinks and snacks) in the body, which increases the problem of fat and insulin in the liver. Therefore, it has become very important to reduce excess sugar from children’s food, so that liver diseases can be prevented. -Ians as/
