Intermittent Fasting as a Treatment for Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: What Is the Evidence? 

How was your scan

I bet your job demands no physical strength.

​@Stl71 Ketosis can actually boost your human growth hormone. Muscle loss is a result of use it or lose it atrophy not calorie deprivation genius

@@Stl71you can do it once you condition yourself. I can bust butt for days but usually all day n eat 1 healthy meal

​@@Ronjonsensorrow😅

​@Baseballisbest67 he said 14 day fast ! I bet this person is being very sedentary.

im 38 and fatty liver... cant loose weight... BUT IM GOING TO FAST NOW I KNOW ABOUT FASTING AND LIVER!!!

Has it helped ur liver? I can't lose weight either, not even with fasting but I hope the fat is coming off my liver.

I agree. I did the Carnivore Diet for like 6 weeks last year and after a week, my body was fat adapted and I literally only at one meal per day. I had so much energy and my mental clarity was off the charts! I lost close to 10 lbs in that time. A lot of it seemed like water weight because my face and neck was no longer puffy. For me, Carnivore was hard to maintain long-term. I recently started trying to eat strictly keto/low carb, but I don't eat a lot of carbs most days anyway, although I tend to binge eat carbs on occasion. I recently got a CT scan and was told I have a fatty liver. I was shocked since I tend to eat better than most people I know. I do need to drink more water and be more active though. I'm glad I have the scan results to compare to in the future.

Indeed, I used to fast with only water (without electrolytes). There is a risk that you feel fatigued, light headache, etc. I found out it is best to use only electrolytes drinks (no junk sugary electrolytes drinks) while I am in a longer fasted period. We excrete all of our electrolytes from peeing and sweating.

@@doublecheck7099 how many times do u take electrolytes and how many hours u fast

@@endofdayzfitnessu.k2126 I only take one time per day. Obviously, it all depends on how much you sweat and pee throughout the day. I used to fast every single day. (Classical 16:8) Currently, I fast once a week, since I am targeting to gain lean muscle mass. Whenever I want to "clean up" my body from toxins and dead protein cells, I fast for 48hours or longer once a year. I hope this helps. If you have any further questions feel free to contact me :)

@@doublecheck7099 thank you for the reply I’ve got high cholesterol should I take niacin alone or with statin I also have a stent in small artery

Don’t you mean ma’am?

May be yes, just try for 3days and just have a look on your pee

Just be careful to get some electrolytes if you go more than 5 or 6 days… good luck…

​@JoshuaTrenge electrolytes are the key to prolonged water fasting.

@@jorgegamboa3621 Exactly, right now I'm on day 9, taking salt, potassium, magnesium&msm and zinc and it feels really comfortable. As a side effect, I am enormously productive and my brain feels just great, so easy to focus. Moreover, my inability to sleep longer than 6 hours a day changed to fabulous 8 hours effortlessly while having pleasant, peaceful dreams. Recommend to everyone once a year or two, or at least when the belly needs to be burned - it's cca 350 grams of pure fat a day beyond the introductory 3-4 unpleasant days with extreme hunger when some muscles are being turned into sugar. My longest water fast was 24 days after which a sudden hunger came, but now I hope to do 42 days if lucky due to the amount of fat I need to burn this time, after 6 years from my latest water fast. First time that I have a set goal and it might help me to go longer than usually.

Fluid and potassium and sodium and magnesium

I started doing an 18/6 IF and I had my gallbladder removed 2 years ago so far I've only seen benefits although might be different for you it'd be best to talk to your doctor

You already fast when sleeping. If you stop eating at 9pm and eat again at 9am, that's already 12 hours. What do you thinks gonna happen if you skip breakfast and eat at say, 1pm? IF is generally about a 16hr fast. Gall bladders store bile. But feel free to consult with your doc if you plan to do extended fasting over 16hrs

How is she wrong? If a diabetic fasts, that person can go into ketoacidosis, so she’s right. Your body needs insulin to get ketones into cells as well, so having ketones built up in your bloodstream can definitely lead to acidosis. Please do your research before posting misleading information on here.

Fasting... From sunrise to sun set better can do for even a month

@@josuedominguez5128My understanding is that Type I diabetics definitely have that as a concern, but Type 2 diabetics do not generally have this problem. I have heard this from watching Ken Berry MD videos. Make sense to me anyway!
