Great lecture. Thank you Dr. Danielle Brandman ! I hope everyone who watched /listened to this lecture takes better care of their liver. My brother died from hepatocellular carcinoma. He had vague symptoms, back pain, stomach pain. 7 months after his biopsy he died. 20 months later my mother died from the complications of decompensated cirrhosis, it was noted in her death certificate hepatic encephalopathy. Mom’s first obvious symptom was pedal edema. 9 months later she died. After their death I’ve been studying liver diseases. Dr. Melissa Palmer's Guide To Hepatitis and Liver Disease book helped me to in the beginning.

And my echo came back with fatty pancreas and liver. 2 weeks later my labs alp and ast were back to normal but my Alt was still at 67.

[@bighands69]

At your age what is far more important is low intensity exercise performed daily for long periods of times such as walking, gardening and so on. You can then top it off with a session here and there of higher intensity. An exercise bike is a fantastic option as well as you can do short bursts on that. You need to be very careful with the trampoline as you could cause an injury that can leave you a lot less mobile for 18 months.

You're like 80% wrong. The point of fasting is to give the body enough time to rest. And the main benefit is usually that people who fast eat less. If someone is already eating correctly, the feedback loops that good foods create in terms of satiability are entirely fine to keep consumption in check.

[@ethniclove1]

@@sawyerbass4661 You are 100% wrong! The point of fasting is to quick start a weight loss program and to help the body to produce ketones. In the US, most people with fatty liver are obese. Loose the fat and your liver loose fat as well, a reduction of 50% from fasting alone.

[@thebearcouncil8810]

@@sawyerbass4661 I think the main problem with that is that the definition of eating correctly is pretty much always up for debate, amd most food you eat will elevate your insulin. Most diets fail, and I would argue that it is easier to convince someone to start fasting than committ to a complete change in diet. I would also assume that you need something a bit more drastic when you have already progressed so as to having developed NAFLD or even worse.

I found this talk full of doctor approved and supportive information for the most part. However, the response to the "keto related" audience question, seemed glossed over very quickly, and was perhaps correct with its references to there not yet being "long RCT studies" yet available. However, there are numerous scientific studies, along with the observational and epidemiological studies, which point in the direction that including "low carb" (20-50grams/day) eating as a lifestyle therapy, is proving to be a justifiable option in treatments for reducing fatty liver, metabolic syndrome, and calcification in arteries. The immense dangers of fructose, other sugars, even "natural foods" with high glycemic loads, for those with metabolic syndrome and fatty liver, might want to include the inflammatory nature of highly processed seed oil consumptions. Excellent resources include Nephrologist Dr. Jason Fung (Toronto), and Dr. Robert Lustig (fructose studies/fatty liver association results), whose work directly relates to reversing/ reducing severity of these conditions. ... Sorry to be so long-winded.

Would like to hear what you think about cofactors of fatty pancreas and fatty liver. Also the concept that type 2 diabetes is not caused by the burning out of the pancreas ability to produce insulin but the obstruction of production due to fat.

Dr Robert Lustig makes it very clear in his lectures that, for a well person, this is nothing to do with dietary fat, this is due to excess starch (becoming blood glucose) raising Insulin Resistance, but is caused directly with excess Fructose, which is 50% of table sugar. Fructose can only be processed by the liver and it uses the de novo Lipogenesis process to create fat, and also raise the level of LDLs in your blood. Table Sugar, HFCS and fruit juices all deliver high levels of Fructose.

I used to drink cappucino 2, 3 times a day and got nonalcoholic fatty liver.😕

Possibly the milk lots of sugar in milk.

[@evelynmcnabb3513]

It is good to hear about fatty liver being related. This is very helpful in that I'd been diagnosed with diabetes but the meds made me lose weight and I'm not taking them anymore. What I was told that I was headed in that direction!!!

[@Johneseed]

OMG just tell them to practice IF and longer fasts and switch to a Zero Carbage (Keto) and or a Carnivore diet. You can not exercise a Fatty Liver! Come on do the research and stop trying to include a pharmacy pay time!

[@mushypeasplease8872]

Trying to find a pill to remedy a lifestyle problem is at best no better than a sticking plaster solution at worst expensive and futile. And also, those in the comments saying this Dr doesn't identify sugar/simple carbs as a cause of fatty liver disease, she does, and does so explicitly. She even specifies rice as needing to be reduced.

[@Rai46149]

So why don’t they do the research for the supplements!! And why do we have to wait until the end to know about it?? These doctors amazes me. Do the research on the supplements.

[@dhanvantarihealthcare6084]

Thanks for Doctor and and all of you

Why isn't there studies being done for IV glutathione or IV acetylcystiene treatment for fatty liver disease?

[@tattoorobertjackson]

Very good lecture.

[@therealbluehooney]

I’m wondering if my mystery is about to be solved.... or maybe not. I have just been diagnosed with a very fatty liver. I have this weird exercise intolerance. If I do anything more than just walk, I get sick. If I push myself to moderate exercise (like bike riding) or more intense exercise, like running or sports and working up a sweat, I will inevitably (within the next day) I will develop a fever, respiratory discomfort (tight chest and phlegm causing an asthmatic feel) cold and flu symptoms, basically. And this will last anywhere between 3-8 days. I’ve been to so many doctors trying to find out why I’m having this seemingly autoimmune response but no one knows! Could this have anything to do with Fatty Liver?

[@bighands69]

@Jamie Shields I would suggest going to a doctor that specialises in integrative medicine. So finding a hepatologist that specializes integrative medicine might to one of the better options. They will try and look at the whole body and also if there are any underlying conditions or profiles.

[@mohammadqasim4619]

Hi. I would suggest watching Dr. Lustig's videos on metabolic syndrome, sugar and its effect on the brain. One of the symptoms being for instance that high sugar causes the brain to malfunction in a way that it stops you from being motivated for exercise.

[@lou_liveinlight]

Did you get any answers on your situation. I’ve been experiencing similar to you. I often get chest infections after I start regular exercising and I’ve just been told I have fatty liver because I’m overweight.

[@joanneclark8256]

Sounds like histamine response .. fatty liver and hormones could be participating

[@VegasGuy89183]

How nice of this doctor to decide for her patients that a Keto diet is unsustainable. Sarcasm intended. I've been doing Keto since January 1 and it has been the *easiest* diet to sustain. It is carbs that make a person hungry and the reason why a calorie restriction diet unsustainable. I've lost over 50 pounds without being hungry. Keto has also made intermittent fasting easy to do (20/4 five days/wk). There are wonderful Keto recipes but you do have to do your own research to find them. In part because of health professionals like this doctor who keep the information from you.

[@JYAN2852]

She obviously has never tried keto. She is spoken like a typical doctor who still think the world is flat

Best comment on here 👍🏼

[@catherinesandell6602]

The fact that you say medications can’t cause fatty liver is not true! I had been given Cymbalta for 10+ years. Now I have fatty liver which is a side effect of Cymbalta! Can this be corrected? Not one Dr. gave me any instructions or suggestions on this disease! It’s been 8 years since my diagnosis!

[@Annapurna818]

yep

[@mistybaldwin5985]

I learned a lot watching your video. I am struggling with some issues on my liver. They keep saying that it’s fatty liver three years. It was not as nonalcoholic fatty liver. However, when they sent me to a specialist they did a Phibro scan. They said that I have fibrosis stage four but all the doctors back here where I live, keep going back to its fatty liver. I have all kinds of symptoms, so I’m really confused on how I push the issue that there’s more to it than what they’re saying here

Why not Keto? It so easy to lose on low carb. Why go under the knife? I know people who had the surgery and they still gained weight. Keto is not really hard to sustain. I hit target weight months ago and carry on with it because it keeps my insulin levels and glucose levels stable. You might try something before dismissing it as gross.

It may not be "culturally appropriate" to tell people not to eat too much rice? 🙄 Oh brother! If too much carbohydrates are bad for our health, they are bad for our health period! No matter what ethnicity or culture you come from.

[@CaliforniaGirl-qk5kq]

sugar is our preferred poison

[@petercyr3508]

Regarding screening: if you wait for someone to be diagnosed diabetic before liver imaging, it is way too late. Fatty liver is the first step in the train to T2D. At least give the patient the option to spend a couple hundred bucks and get a US and a Fibroscan if insurance wont pay. That's all it cost me.

[@bighands69]

For some people they may get a response from just a lifestyle change and it may not be feasible to scan 150 million Americans.

[@jiminibops]

I was under the impression you could reverse liver fibrosis with major lifestyle and diet changes because of the regenerative properties of the liver? Fasting fasting fasting and more prolonged fasting is the best way to treat a fatty liver and then intermittent fast after that with the diet changed and get all the sugar out of it. If a person has the serious desire to live then that's how you do it. Hard stop.

[@bighands69]

Does not work in every instance.

[@abhishekchugh3689]

Did you got any changes ? What are they ?

[@mamashanshan2772]

I don’t understand why I have this. I’m under weight , I’ve always eaten healthy. This is so beyond me. Now I know why the doctor was expressing how I was by no means overweight.

look into low carb diet, not necessarily keto level. sugars are the problem. Learn where all the sugar is hiding in your diet.

[@ignacioa1638]

I wish she has shown a clear analysis on the relationship between the USDA recommendations for the last 40 years and how NAFLD, obesity, diabetes... hand increased from close to zero to a huge percentage of the population suffering these and other chronic diseases. There is not such a big mystery about what the causes are, low carb diets, plant base diets, vegetable oils...not good, why don't go back to our primeval ways of eating, more animal foods, not restrictions on fats (real good fats) and limiting refined carbohydrates. At the end, blaming each of us because we eat too much and exercise to little is just BS.

[@chien-shengtsai8626]

Good presenter.

[@MsPokiepie]

Anyone else find it shocking and scary that NAFLD has been sorted for like a decade and hepatologists dont know about it?
