How does obesity cause fatty liver?

Did you know that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is one of the most common liver diseases?

Fatty liver is the result of fat accumulation in the liver. It arises as a consequence of the “modern way of life” and Western diet, and it is increasingly diagnosed in obese women or diabetics.

Don’t worry, you’re not alone, obesity is present in as many as 60-95% of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

In addition to other risk factors for obesity, the connection between obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease implies the development of liver cirrhosis as well as liver cancer.

To recognize signs of fatty liver, pay attention to the following symptoms:

Fatigue and weakness, mild pain in the center or below the right rib cage, elevated liver enzymes, elevated cholesterol and/or triglycerides.

Sudden, acute fatty liver caused by obesity can lead to significant pain sensitivity of the liver due to the stretching of its capsule.

Fatty liver is INEFFECTIVE in eliminating toxins like a healthy liver, and that is the problem.

The good news is that proper nutrition, weight reduction, treatment of digestive disorders, etc., lead to recovery.

Fatty liver is a condition that can be cured if recognized and provided with timely medical advice and assistance.

The plant milk thistle has long been known for its protective and regenerative effects on the liver, thanks to its main active ingredient silymarin.

Numerous studies have confirmed that milk thistle, either alone or in combination with vitamin E and other antioxidants, can reduce inflammation and damage in fatty liver.

Our digestive system actually has difficulty utilizing milk thistle, which is why phytosomal extracts are better (simply put, milk thistle is enclosed within microscopic oil droplets).

Phytosomal form demonstrates better absorption and more efficient intracellular penetration compared to conventional extracts on the market. Due to its higher bioavailability, phytosomal milk thistle extract is effective even in smaller doses.

DAMASALIS has developed a product for the health of your liver, with a unique composition and a 7-in-1 action:

SILYSMART® contains a phytosomal form of milk thistle extract that our body can better utilize, resulting in a 7 times stronger absorption compared to conventional products on the market – it regenerates and protects the liver, cleanses the body from free radicals and toxins from medications, supports the liver and gallbladder in fat digestion, slows down the growth of tumor cells, protects against oxidative stress, reduces fatigue, and restores energy.

• Reduced glutathione, the strongest antioxidant in our body, which further protects the liver from accumulated toxins 
• Choline bitartrate promotes fat breakdown and supports liver function 
• Vitamin E protects liver cells from oxidative stress

The liver doesn’t cause pain, but we cannot survive without it! Pay attention to the initial symptoms of fatty liver and take immediate action.
