Fatty Liver can Lead to Symptoms
Posted , 5 users are following.
Has anyone picked up "First for Women" magazine, Oct 6 edition? According to this article the following sumptoms are indicators that you might hvae a fatty liver:
*Excess weight, especially in belly area
*Problems with memory and concentration
*Dark circles under the eyes or discoloration of skin around neck, ankles knuckles, elbows or knees
*Light-headedness, dizziness or weakness
*Chronic tiredness
*A feeling of tightness or fullness in the center or upper right region of abdomen
This article was saying that fatty liver is affecting 75% of women over the age of 40. There are many reasons for fatty liver which you can look up on a search and would suggest that you do if you feel this might be related to you.
The article suggests a liver cleanse to reboot the system. The magazine suggests natural ways the cleanse the liver.
One thing I just want to add here is that while I do completely agree that the liver could be the reason for these sysmptoms and I do believe in cleansing the liver, a person does have to be very careful how they go about a liver cleanse. There are some herbal products out there that will cleanse the liver but herbs are not FDA regualted and so if your system is sensative generally you might want to do half, or the lowest suggested dose, to see how it affects your body.
Several years ago when I was having digestive issues I decided to do a liver cleanse. This fitness instructor helped me, told me how to take it, I aksed all the questions I thought I should know. The herbs ended up being to strong and the wrong mix, according to my doc. I ended up in ER with high blood pressure (never had it before), my sleen was swollen, my pancreas was swollen, my gallbladder was swollen, I had vertigo, my body wanted to turn left when I was trying to turn right, I had high calcium levels, I had just several small kidney stones, I could not think not even well enough to use an ATM machine, my joints hurt, I could not sleep, I had a stiff neck, I was having pains in my chest and my stomach was on fire. I was a mess. It ended up doing some nerve damage. Basically is caused a toxicity in my body. It took me 2 years to rebuild myself using vitmins and watching my diet very carefully. There for awhile I was pretty much eating nothing but boiled chicken with vegetables, I had to watch all acidic foods. It took 5 months for my stomach to repair itself.
The products I used and would warn against using these were the Elemis products which can be found on Amazon.
Don't be afraid of a cleanse but do use common sense. Juicing is a great natural way to cleanse.

Very inetresting ....
More info on it for the ladies..
Fatty Liver Disease
Symptoms of Fatty Liver Disease
Fatty liver disease is often silent, producing no symptoms, especially in the beginning. If the disease advances -- which is usually over a period of years, or even decades -- it can cause vague problems such as:
Fatigue
Weight loss or loss of appetite
Weakness
Nausea
Confusion, impaired judgment, or trouble concentrating
These symptoms may also be present:
Pain in the center or right upper part of the abdomen
An enlarged liver
Patchy, dark skin discoloration, usually on the neck or underarm area
With alcoholic liver disease, symptoms may worsen after periods of heavy drinking. With NAFLD, the disease process can stop or reverse, or it may worsen. If cirrhosis develops, the liver loses its ability to function. This can cause signs and symptoms such as:
Fluid retention
Muscle wasting
Internal bleeding
Jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes)
Liver failure
Diagnosis of Fatty Liver Disease
Often a fatty liver shows up during a routine checkup. Your doctor might notice that your liver is slightly enlarged or see signs of a fatty liver on a blood test. Or, your doctor may suspect a problem after taking a health history or doing a physical exam.

isnt it odd how you have an op and go home to recover and no follow up..
when i think back when i had endometriosis i had that lasered off etc and same here .. there was no follow up, it was GP again.. if any concerns ..
infact i cant think of any follow ups being done ... just GP..
my mother shes 83 had her eyes done lately and i said to her do you go back and be checked all okay... she said no...
unbeliveable ...
