The most deadly yet underdiagnosed condition by doctors:

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

1 in 3 adults have it and it silently leads to cancer, diabetes, and early death.

Here are the warning signs you might have it and 8 ways to reverse it naturally: 🧵

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease is excess fat buildup in the liver but not from alcohol.

It´s driven by:

• Seed oils
• Sugar overload
• Processed food
• Insulin resistance
• Chronic inflammation

It can lead to cancer, cirrhosis, and early death.

Early signs of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease:

• Bloating
• Brain fog
• Chronic fatigue
• Belly fat that won’t budge
• Elevated liver enzymes (if tested)

You normally don´t even have liver pain.

It´s a silent killer.

It´s even the #1 cause of liver transplant.

The bad news?

There´s NO FDA-approved medication specifically for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

This time, not even Big Pharma can save you...

The good news?

It´s 100% reversible naturally.

Here are the top 8 science-backed ways to reverse it:

1. Cut down on sugar.

The sugary sodas and candy have to go...

But you can still have:

• Fruit
• Diet sodas
• 85%+ cacao dark chocolate
• Low-sugar protein ice cream.

These will help satisfy your sugar cravings and they´re still low in sugar.

2. Ditch the industrial seed oils.

• Corn
• Canola
• Soybean
• Sunflower
• Grapeseed
• Cottonseed

They cause oxidative stress in liver cells which worsens fat storage and inflammation.

Start using olive oil, butter, beef tallow and avoiding processed food.

3. Lift weights 2-3 hours/week and walk more.

• Burns liver fat
• Increases glucose uptake
• Reduces liver inflammation
• Lowers insulin & blocks fat buildup.

Plus, you get all the benefits for your:

• Weight
• Appearance
• Cardiovascular health.

4. Eat more choline-rich foods.

Choline helps your liver export fat.

Best sources:

• Liver
• Beef
• Salmon
• Eggs (especially the yolk).

Most people are choline-deficient - especially vegans.

5. Try intermittent fasting.

It helps reverse fatty liver by:

• Reducing liver inflammation
• Burning stored liver fat for fuel
• Activating autophagy to clear damage
• Lowering insulin & stopping fat buildup.

6. Eat cruciferous vegetables.

• Arugula
• Broccoli
• Cabbage
• Cauliflower
• Brussels sprouts.

These naturally support liver detox enzymes.

They´re great for weight loss, nutrition and your health in general too.

Steam lightly. Don’t overcook.

7. Take supplements for your liver health (bookmark this).

The best are:

• ALA
• NAC
• TUDCA
• Choline
• Betaine
• Taurine
• Glycine
• Inositol
• Curcumin
• Artichoke
• Dandelion
• Milk Thistle
• Glutathione.

Supplementation + Diet + Exercise = Faster Results.

8. Lose weight.

Just losing 7-10% of your bodyweight reverses non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in up to 90% of people.

It directly:

• Burns liver fat
• Lowers inflammation
• Reduces insulin resistance.

But you don´t need fad diets, extreme workouts or Ozempic:

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease isn´t a "disease" that you randomly get.

It´s directly from your lifestyle choices.

There are no meds to depend on to fix it either.

It´s on you to take control of your health.

Just follow these tips and you´ll be fine!
