To eat a problem. Myasnikov told how to understand that there is obesity of the liver

On the air of the program “On the most important” Alexander Myasnikov I affected the theme of a common pathology, which is a “surprise” for many. And this is non -alcoholic fatty liver disease, it is also fatty dystrophy and non -alcoholic steatogepatosis. “As a result of some provocative processes, liver cells begin to change and are replaced by fat tissue. The functional ability of the liver is reduced, inflammation occurs, ”the doctor explained.

From steat hepatosis, cirrhosis and cancer develop. The problem is called non -alcohol not because fat dystrophy can only be inflated, but also to eat.

“In developed countries, steatogepatosis is up to 35%, strictly speaking, every 4-5. Moreover, only 5% know that they have a disease. The remaining 95% are sick and do not know. And the disease is serious. Because 14% with fattypatosis develop oncology, ”Myasnikov said.

You can not make an ultrasound diagnosis. The search should be started with biochemical indicators. Any person with metabolic syndrome should be tested for steatgepatosis. Metabolic syndrome is an increase in glucose, when it is at 5.7 at the level of 5.7 is still a pre -icing, but already a reason to be awarded. The second indicator that needs to be checked is triglycerides. And also look at the waist volume and weight. “If these three components are increased, you need to hand over the liver enzymes. If they are increased, at first exclude the presence of quiet killers – hepatitis B and C, and then check stamathepatosis, ”the doctor emphasized.

The important positive news is that this condition is reversible – you only need to observe a diet and devote the time of physicism. “Not more than 1800 calories per day, the Mediterranean diet – more vegetables and fruits, fish, low -fat milk, whole grain products, and loads should be real and five days a week. Then, over time, everything is normalized. But if you abandon, everything will come back, ”said Myasnikov.
