Fatty Liver Causes
via Bumrungrad Hospital
Fatty Liver is caused by the accumulation of excess fat cells in the liver. If untreated it can increase the risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Fatty Liver can occur at any age but is most prevalent in the 40-50 year-plus age group.
A slower metabolism is one of the contributing factors.
Whilst alcohol is a big factor, if you take regular medications and pharmaceuticals, the build-up of toxins can have a detrimental effect.
Fatty liver is known to be a silent killer, but the liver is also known to regenerate quickly especially when you start eating clean. This is where the change to a vegan diet can be hugely beneficial.

Did you know that perhaps the simplest lifestyle change that you can make to assist with reversing your fatty liver is to drink lemon water?
Lemon in warm water works a treat. It’s good for getting things moving in the morning and it’s all-natural and your liver will love it.
Another thing you can try is adding a capful of Apple Cider Vinegar to water. Apple Cider Vinegar is purported to detoxify the liver.
It promotes blood flow and filtration and boosts energy within the liver. Apple cider vinegar can aid in the removal of harmful toxins that build up in an unhealthy liver.
Green Tea For Better Liver Function
Green Tea is also excellent. When it is consumed throughout the day, you are not only cleansing your liver, you are burning calories too. This will assist with increasing your metabolism.
If you are serious about getting your liver in shape, drop off the caffeine, and maybe consider something like Golden Turmeric Milk. There are also some great herbal tea blends.

One of the best ways to cleanse your liver is with detox water. We are sharing 5 popular recipes for you to try.
Apple Cinnamon Detox Water
Slice Fuji apples and place them in a pitcher with a stick of cinnamon. Add ice, then fill with water. Allow to chill in the fridge 15 minutes, then enjoy.
This drink burns calories and helps you deal with liver stones because apples open the bile ducts due to the malic acid they contain.
Strawberry Spa Water
Hull and slice one pound of strawberries and place in a pitcher with filtered water. Then put the mix in fridge overnight. Enjoy with ice. The strawberries will help with liver breakdown that helps get rid of compounds that cause cancer. Also, the Vitamin C in strawberries will help flush fats from the liver.

Natural Belly Slimming Detox Water
Add one lemon, one orange, 10 fresh mint leaves, one medium cucumber and two liters of water to a pitcher filled with ice. Allow to cool in the fridge. One hour is the minimum, but the longer you can leave it in the fridge to chill, the better the taste will be.
Flat Belly Detox Water
Cube watermelon and freeze it. Then add it to a large jar, add 10 mint leaves and fill with filtered water. For best results, allow to chill for 10 minutes. Then you can drink it.
The water will help replace other beverages that are bad for you while providing a way to get rid of toxins and increase your metabolism. Lemon juice also helps with metabolism, so if you need a bigger boost, add lemon juice.

Dr. Cabot’s Liver Cleansing Diet
We can personally vouch for the benefits of a cleansed Liver. In fact, only recently we went on the Liver Cleansing Diet for a second time. The best part is the delicious food. You are never hungry and your shape changes dramatically.
The downside is the scales are slow to move. It’s a gradual weight loss that has more chance of staying off. The more weight you are carrying, the quicker it drops off.
If you want a sustainable plan that is easy to follow, you will love this. The level of your energy massively increases the cleaner your liver becomes. We have found a version of the diet and the recipes available on Kindle for a few dollars and we highly recommend it to you –Â Check out the Liver Cleansing Diet here.
