It’s such an easy motto to follow. …… “ Any food that is linked to a television commercial should not be consumed.” It is so easy to follow this simple rule. Eating has become a sport. When you look at the advertisements on television almost every single commercial is either big Pharma or a processed food.

I discovered I had fatty liver 5 years ago after I did a liver cleanse. During the cleanse, one of the stones got stuck in my intestine for several days causing severe pain which prompted me to go and get a cat scan. During my wait in the waiting room, the stone passed but I still had the scan. After the scan, the doctor was supposed to call me within 2 hours to go over the scan, which he didn't, so I went back to the facility to get a digital copy along with the notes. The notes said there were no obstructions, but that I had an enlarged liver that they noted to likely be fatty liver. When the doc called me at the very end of the day, I didn't tell him that I already had the scan/notes, I just let him talk. He proceeded to tell me there were no obstructions and everything appeared to be fine, not once mentioning my liver. I thought that was weird, so I mentioned the liver and asked about it. His response was, "How did you get a copy?" To which I said, "I just asked for it." He was quiet for a few seconds and said that mostly everybody has fatty liver, and it is really not a big deal. I realized that it was not a big deal to him because he didn't have a pill to push on me like he always did or a jab to give to prevent it from occurring. Needless to say, now I have a host of awful symptoms that are related to my liver not being able to detox properly.

Dr. Lustig, I got a very stupid injury, about 8 years ago. And kept eating but became very much less active and ended up at 5”4’ and 212 pounds. I decided to do something about it, and fairly quickly lost down to 192. Then I came out of Covid and stress (( like having 13 people in a house designed for five )) among other things. And I came out of it, once I got my vaccines, I had become a Covid Long Hauler, and was also diabetic, had cancer, and a minor heart issue. I discovered you and your book. And also Jason Fung’s books. I now weigh 172, my ALT has gone from 28 to 16. My trigs are down from around 280’s to 212. My “good cholesterol is up into the 60s ( 66 last draw ). My diet consists of home cooked meat or eggs, fruits and berries, tea with whipping cream or plain Icelandic yogurt, and a bit of bread or Cheerios or the like. ( I relapse with ice cream under stress. ) I did try Keto without being able to stick to it after the first four months or so. Weight loss is slow. Long hauling (( PASC is a very slow recovery, far from complete. But I am very slowly “getting younger”. (( I am 77 !!)) Thank You Dr. Lustig !!! Your work is saving lives !!! But please get ice cream made with allulose into the grocery stores as soon as possible. I don’t think you need any regular sugar. I now think ice cream is really too sweet !! I am under very high stress- my daughter is dying of liver disease and can’t stop drinking. She almost died of end stage liver disease and esophageal verices last month. Last spring my grandfather was shot by an upset, most likely drunk young man in her Minneapolis, Minnesota neighborhood. She is recovering. In this situation, I have lost considerable fat from my butt and legs, as compared to my waist. (( sigh )) I doubt that I will be living with any less stress anytime soon. Some things diet can’t fix. Though, as per Chris Palmer, I do time restricted eating, and am therefore in ketosis some. I do think I do better with stress on the time restricted, protein first around noon, real food diet. Thank you !! THANK YOU !!!

Take dandelion root and milk thistle. My cousin had to have a liver transplant but avoided it completely and was taken off the transplant list by listening to me. Hes fine.

Just have to add that as a Brit you can't just 'get an ALT'. You have to make an appt with your GP for it, and unless your GP has concerns about your liver function, they won't do it! As it's virtually impossible to see a GP these days without a long wait except in emergency, they're not going to use up patient time with a test they don't consider important. This is not the US. Private medicine yes, but the average person can't afford it.

You can ask for a general blood test that includes liver function test. And if you have the NHs app that documents your test results - you can login and find it there. Also known as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and the number comes up here when I see my blood test results.

[@ktpuss]

That’s not entirely true, if you speak to the docs (for us it’s by phone where we are) and would like the occasional check up they usually agree - if they seem hesitant state that you’ve been feeling fatigue and run down for some time. The ALT marker and many others are all checked within a standard blood panel/Full blood count they will order. Then Ideally go and pick up a print out of results to compare with any the following year or so. Any others we need we order online, which luckily is easy these days.

@janicetribbiani7535 yes, you're correct. I'm assuming people watching would know. I still have some fruit, especially berries and a ton of veg. Otherwise I'd end up doing a semi-carnivore diet 😆

[@mikepeek5655]

​​@@TreeOfWisdom2you must gradually phase into keto. You have to be patient because so many of us have metabolic disturbances and as result especially insulin problems and that too causes some to have trouble. But, it works but you must give it time . Could take several months depending how bad you are. But it works for 99 percent. See Dr Berg , Dr Ekberg, and Dr Berry videos. Type in fasting , insulin resistance with their name. Keep it simple. Fasting must be phased in. Eat low low carb. Only green veggies but mostly fatty meat, salmon, sardines, butter, bacon. The fattier the better. It carries you longer while fasting. More carnivore is keto. Good luck

36:27 DEPRESSION: -Gut no longer being a symbiotic environment -Good bacteria, the source of serotonin, dying from lack of nutrients (fiber) -Overgrowth of bad bacteria, sending negative signals and suppressing serotonin generation in the intestine. 36:48 Thereby reducing the retrograde anterograde transport of serotonin back up into the nucleus tract to solitarius

[@pmo873]

37:23 All because you didn’t feed your gut: leaky gut, inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, insulin resistance Because you’re not feeding the bacteria, they’re basically stripping the mucin layer right off your intestinal epithelial cells because they can eat that. And then that’s exposing and denuding your intestine and making it so all the junk thats within can get through, contributing to all this

Why do we not have lab results charts (upper and lower limits) that are based on optimal health?

The meat in my grocery store has labels to show the percentages of fat and protein unless it is a whole chicken. Obviously meat does not contain carbohydrates if the meat has not been processed other than being cut into pieces. Beef, pork, and poultry portions have labels. I like this as I can check to see the proportion of protein and fat in any meat.

[@vietnam891]

This doctor is so right. My three incompetent ignorant doctors need to learn from him instead of ignoring our fatty liver problems.

[@GoldenBlaisdale]

I really like Dr Lustig, but I think there is nuance when it comes to fibre. I think that removing fibre from foods that contained fibre is a problem, as those foods, which are plant foods of course, often contain sugars. But if you're not eating food that originally contained fibre i.e. animal foods there's no necessity to put the fibre back because they don't contain sugars and don't need the mitigation of fibre to limit the speed of absorption. I say this from experience of my own animal-based diet, carnivore if you wish, which I discovered and used for eight years. No fibre yet all health problems resolved including an autoimmune issue, psoriasis. Bowel movements were easy and regular. And in the case of my mum who I now look after, having removed all fibrous plant material from her diet her lifelong constipation resolved. Saying that the bacteria eat the mucus of your intestine if you don't give them fibre is something that is often repeated but isn't shown. In a recent lecture that I listen to they ran through all the literature and showed that this is not true and if this was true this would happen when people do fasting particularly extended fasting and it doesn't. And what about indigenous populations like the Inuit who famously eat little to no plant food? And Steffenson experimented with this when he had visited them by eating an animal based diet for a whole year and was healthier than ever, no fibre. What about the case of the carnivore diet eater who had been eating a mixed diet, had his bloodwork and microbiome checked and then went carnivore and on this so-called limited diet the microbiome became more diverse. Clearly, we don't have the absolute whole story.

[@AlteroCoach]

I'm glad that you are not falling for his theories easily, as you have proven on your own example that some of his claims are nonsense. Someone who is a doctor can be wrong. And it's normal.

ALT doesn’t indicate liver fat, it’s an indicator of liver damage and repair. I know this because my ALT is in normal range 32. But my ultrasound I had done showed advanced liver disease. Just looking at my blood levels everything said I was fine. But because of the severe pain in my UPQ, along with some other symptoms had me do an ultrasound thinking it was my gallbladder. Well it was fine but my liver is not at all, so much so I need to have other imaging and scans done.
