Should You Be Worried About a Fatty Liver?

Should You Be Worried About a Fatty Liver? - Spectrum Care Plus

Your liver is the second largest organ in your body. It helps process nutrients from food and beverages and filters harmful substances from your blood.

The liver is the major organ for detoxification. It detoxifies by metabolizing toxins and/or secreting the toxins out of the body.  A damaged liver cannot do its job.

A fatty liver happens when too much fat builds up in your liver. Although it is normal to have a tiny amount of fat in these cells, the liver is considered fatty if more than 5% of it is fat. Too much fat in your liver can cause inflammation and create scarring, and in severe cases, this can lead to liver failure.

It is thought that 80-100 million people in the US have a fatty liver so it’s health concern that should be known about and understood.

Two Types of Fatty Liver

When most people think of liver damage they think of alcoholic fatty liver, the fatty liver that results from an excessive consumption of alcohol. However, there is also a non-alcoholic fatty liver. Your liver can be damaged over the years in many ways other than alcohol, such as through smoking, consuming sugar-laden drinks, fried foods, processed foods, drugs, and by being exposed to environmental toxins. 

These all tax the liver, but sugary, fried, and processed foods give the body a real problem. The excess sugar and fat cannot be utilized by the body and so is stored as fat in the body, and particularly in the liver. 

Medical professionals are now referring to fatty liver that is caused in this way as metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) because this form of fatty liver results from a metabolism failure.

Metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease compromises the liver, and the toxins that are normally filtered out can re-circulate through the body re-exposing it to harmful compounds and this can trigger a toxic overload.

A Fatty Liver is not just a Standalone Condition

Failure to address a fatty liver can result in severe health issues. Fat can leave the liver and get deposited in other organs. Your organ function could decrease over time due to this build-up, leading to increased inflammation within these areas.

Inflammation can trigger an immune response, further exacerbating damage by promoting fibrosis (scarring) - a precursor to more severe conditions like cirrhosis. This liver condition may have significant implications for health. It has even been connected to people suffering from continuing symptoms after having a pandemic related illness.

This phenomenon underscores how interconnected our bodily systems truly are and why maintaining optimal liver health should be a top priority for everyone.
