Fatty liver causes you to not break down caffeine in normal time, but it also now appears to break down other important drug and nutrient components, meaning your medicines and even antioxidants are not responding, as needed, and you could be getting more effect than you should.

On some things, that might be good, but on others, it can be bad.

We need our liver to function appropriately.

If you likely have a fatty liver, consider trimming back on caffeine hours early than you do, to get a better night’s sleep.

If you would like to get rid of your fatty liver, reducing body weight to 14% was shown to do it in one study I’m remembering, and from another study, Pantetheine was found to reverse fatty liver in six months in over half who took it, without losing the weight. I’ve previously posted that Japanese study.

I will tell you a test that may be the early sign if you can’t get insurance to pay for a fibroscan.

I was diagnosed with fatty liver. I had elevated LDH which continued for over a year with multiple tests. When my fatty liver mysteriously disappeared my LDH level came back down. The two may be entirely unrelated but it is something to look for...

Intermittent fasting has been shown to reduce fatty liver. If I’m not mistaken the liver is one of the few organs capable of self-repair/regeneration.

The liver stores glucose or sugar for use as energy, when fasting the body uses up this stored energy in the liver, bloodstream, and muscles completely - and starts mobilizing stored body fat for energy. I can see how calorie restriction in general m, regardless of method, leading to significant weight loss would improve liver health dramatically.

Time-restricted eating, also known as intermittent fasting (IF), can reverse fatty liver disease.
If I didn’t know better I might think that IF can even balance the Federal budget deficit.
Well, I think going to a low-carbohydrate, low sugar diet with IF will do a lot to reduce the grocery budget. But certain foods and frequent eating have an addictive component, so some planning is needed.

Fecal transplants have cured people with Multiple Sclerosis. No Big Pharma profits, so don’t expect FDA approval any time soon.

I spelled “Pantethine” wrong in my first post. Sorry about that.

Here’s the study:
