You can't get fat during the Spring Festival

Fatty liver, as the name suggests, is the amount of fat in the liver that exceeds the normal range. In the past, we used to think that fatty liver was the "patent" of obese people, however, in recent years, studies have found that even people with lower body weight are at risk of fatty liver. This is undoubtedly a wake-up call for those who consider themselves "skinny". So, why do people who are underweight also have fatty liver? And how can we avoid being misled in the wrong way in the pursuit of health**?

First, we need to understand the causes of fatty liver disease. The formation of fatty liver is a complex process involving multiple factors, mainly including the following aspects:

1.Dietary factors: The intake of high-fat, high-sugar, and high-calorie foods increases the burden on the liver, and fat metabolism disorders, resulting in fatty liver.

2.Alcohol abuse: Long-term heavy drinking will reduce the liver's ability to metabolize fat, which in turn can lead to fatty liver.

3.Metabolic disorders: Metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance and dyslipidemia can also lead to fatty liver.

4.Genetic factors: Some people are prone to fatty liver due to genetic reasons due to the liver's low ability to metabolize fat.

5.Rapid**: Rapid weight loss in a short period of time will cause fat metabolism in the liver to be disordered, which in turn will aggravate fatty liver.

So, why do people who are underweight also have fatty liver? On the one hand, people who are underweight may be malnourished, leading to a disorder of fat metabolism within the liver. On the other hand, people with low body weight may over-diet and consume a lot of high-fat, high-sugar foods, which increases the burden on the liver and forms fatty liver. In addition, people who are underweight may also have risk factors such as alcohol abuse, metabolic disorders, etc.

So, how to avoid fatty liver and achieve good health**?

1.Eat a balanced diet: Ensure adequate intake of protein, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals, and avoid foods high in fat, sugar and calories.

2.Moderate exercise: Increasing aerobic exercise, such as running, swimming, cycling, etc., can help increase metabolism and reduce fat accumulation.

3.Abstinence from alcohol: Alcohol is an important cause of fatty liver disease, and abstinence from alcohol is the key to preventing fatty liver disease.

4.Maintain a good routine: Adequate sleep helps the liver metabolize fat.

5.Avoid excessive dieting: Excessive dieting can lead to malnutrition, which can worsen fatty liver disease.

6.Regular physical examination: timely detection and ** fatty liver to avoid deterioration of the condition.

In short, fatty liver is no longer the "patent" of obese people, and people with low body weight should also be wary of the risk of fatty liver. In the process of pursuing health**, we must follow the scientific principles of diet and exercise to avoid falling into the wrong way. Only in this way can we truly achieve health** and stay away from fatty liver.

Finally, I hope that everyone will pay attention to the prevention of fatty liver disease, and from now on, change bad habits and pursue a healthy lifestyle. Let's work together to protect our liver health from the threat of fatty liver.
