What is a Fatty Liver?

What is a fatty liver?The liver is the major organ for detoxification. It detoxifies, by metabolizing toxins and/or secreting the toxins out of the body.  A damaged fatty liver cannot work to do its job.

A fatty liver happens when too much fat builds up in your liver. Although it is normal to have a tiny amount of fat in these cells, the liver is considered fatty if more than 5% of it is fat.  80-100 million are thought to be affected by a fatty liver in the US.

Remember, your liver is the second largest organ in your body. It helps process nutrients from food and beverages and filters harmful substances from your blood. Too much fat in your liver can cause inflammation and create scarring, and in severe cases, this can lead to liver failure.

There are two types of fatty livers:

When most people think of liver damage they think of alcoholic fatty liver. However, there is also a non-alcoholic fatty liver.  The liver can be damaged over the years in many ways – smoking, sugar-laden sodas, fried foods, processed foods, drugs, alcohol and environmental toxins.

These all tax the liver, but sugary, fried, and processed foods give the body a real problem. The excess sugar and fat cannot be utilized by the body and so is stored as fat in the body, and particularly in the liver.  It is now referred to as metabolic-dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) – a more accurate description.

The result is a compromised liver, and the toxins that are normally filtered out can re-circulate through the body re-exposing it to harmful compounds and can trigger a toxic overload.

A Fatty liver is not just a standalone condition. Failure to address a fatty liver can result in severe health issues. Fat can leave the liver and get deposited in other organs. Your organ function could decrease over time due to this build-up, leading to increased inflammation within these areas.

Inflammation triggers an immune response, further exacerbating damage by promoting fibrosis (scarring) – a precursor to more severe conditions like cirrhosis. This liver condition may have significant implications for health. It has even been connected to post pandemic’s continuing symptoms.

This phenomenon underscores how interconnected our bodily systems truly are and why maintaining optimal hepatic health should be everyone’s priority.

You might wonder now: How do I know if I have a metabolic liver dysfunction?

Some symptoms are:

  • Stubborn weight gain
  • Fatigue
  • Skin that itches
  • Feeling confused (toxin buildup)
  • Swelling or pain in the upper belly

You can address a fatty liver by changing your diet. You can also address it with supplements that can help to naturally improve a fatty liver and thus overall health.

What supplement has what you need to address a Fatty Liver?

There are special natural ingredients that help to support liver health. It can be helpful to consume all these ingredients in one supplement.  They all work together.

Due to the quality of food today, most people are deficient in the vitamins and minerals needed by the liver for optimal health.

PureLife Care+ is a natural supplement that works at the cellular level to improve metabolism, reduce insulin resistance, inflammation and to help a fatty liver.

More about Your Metabolism and Your Health

Metabolism and Your HealthThere are a lot of words to understand when it comes to metabolism and your health and what you should do to build a healthy metabolism.  Here are a few more terms.

What is the microbiome?  (microbiome comes from Ancient Greek mikrós ‘small’ and bíos ‘life’)

It is the community of microorganisms (living things too small to be seen with the naked eye) that can usually be found living together in any given habitat. The microbiome refers to the environment that microbes live in. The microbes include bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

The human microbiome consists of communities of microbes that live on the skin, the mouth, the genitals, and especially the gut.

The ‘gut microbiome’ is made up of the trillions of microorganisms that live in the intestinal tract and play a key role in digesting food and helping to absorb and synthesize nutrients.

These microorganisms, mainly comprising bacteria, are involved in functions critical to your health and wellbeing.  They are involved in many other important processes that extend beyond the gut, including metabolism, body weight, immune system regulation, as well as brain function and mood.

What is the microbiota?

Microbiota is the microscopic organisms of a particular environment.  These live in communities in various parts of the body.

The full array of microorganisms (the microbiota) lives on and in humans. This microbiota represents a remarkably diverse array of microorganisms that includes bacteria, archaea (primitive single-celled organisms), fungi, and even some protozoans and nonliving viruses. Bacteria are by far the most numerous members of the human microbiome.

The human gut microbiota refers to the trillions of microbes, such as bacteria, that live in the human gut. They live in the gut microbiome. Most microbes in the body are useful, but they may become harmful when out of balance.

What is a leaky gut?

Leaky gut is a weakened intestinal wall that allows bacteria and toxins into the bloodstream.

Undigested food particles can slip through the lining of the intestinal wall into the capillaries or lymph vessels which are similar to vein capillaries.

These undigested food particles contain chains of amino acids which should be broken down into single amino acids but are not. These chains of amino acids look like viruses, bacteria or other microscopic parasites to the immune system and an immune response is initiated. Because the lining is undernourished, it continues to leak, and the immune system continues to attack.

We hope this helps you to understand metabolism so you fix yours and have your metabolism functioning the way it should and move towards optimal health and vitality.

Understanding the True Impact of Metabolism on Health

understanding metabolismYou’ve probably heard a lot about metabolism, but do you have a full understanding of what it means, or why improving your metabolism is so important?

Most people’s understanding of metabolism is related to weight – a slow metabolism may lead to weight gain, or increasing one’s metabolism can lead to weight loss.

That is just a small part of how metabolism affects the body and impacts health. This article aims to give a fuller understanding of metabolism to help you understand how your metabolism could be affecting your health.

First, let’s define the terms so you can understand this health issue.

Metabolism is a generic word for EVERY chemical process in your body from energy production to cellular reproduction and fighting off disease.

Metabolism is the process of cells creating energy from food (from nutrition.) Well-functioning cells create a well-functioning and healthy body.

Thus, improving metabolism at the cellular level is the health goal.

What are mitochondria?

Mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion) are organelles (structures that perform special functions within the cell) that produce the energy used by the cell. For this reason, the mitochondrion is sometimes referred to as “the powerhouse of the cell”. They are the batteries of the cells and are a very important part of good health.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction means the body has fewer mitochondria, and the ones it does have are smaller and inefficient (not working as well as they should.) Damage to the mitochondria causes cells to die because they can no longer produce enough energy.

Because mitochondrial damage disrupts normal metabolism, it results in metabolic dysfunction.

Metabolic Dysfunction occurs when metabolism goes awry, and abnormal chemical reactions happen and disrupt the body’s metabolism. This means less cellular energy is produced and organ dysfunction can result. Impaired metabolism can result in nutrient deficiencies and toxic overload.

By the time you experience non-optimum health issues, it’s safe to say you’ve probably had metabolic dysfunction for quite a while.

If you have high blood pressure, high blood glucose, insulin resistance, high cholesterol, and excess weight around the waist you have metabolic dysfunction that is negatively affecting the way your body functions.

This also means you have an increased risk of a more serious health condition. It is very important that the underlying cause of non-optimum health conditions – metabolic dysfunction – is addressed.

The syndrome caused by metabolic dysfunction is Metabolic Syndrome.

What Does Improving your Metabolism Mean? 

Improving your metabolism means improving the health of your cells.

Healthier cells can result in a range of health improvements, such as better digestion and normal bowel movements.

Healthier cells can lead to a stronger immune health, lower levels of inflammation and less stress.

In fact, the potential health improvements of having healthier cells are many.

How Can I Improve my Cellular Health and Metabolism?

The most powerful way to improve your cellular health and metabolism is through nutrition. Giving your body the nutrition it needs to thrive is the answer.

Can’t Stay Asleep? Study Findings Say “Eat More Fruits + Veggies”

Fruits and vegetables for sleep.According to experts, healthy adults should sleep between seven and nine hours per night. After noticing a rise in people with insomnia and those getting too little sleep, researchers in Finland examined the correlation between fruit and vegetable consumption and its impact on sleep—revealing a strong association.

For their study, researchers looked at data from 5,043 adults aged 18 and older participating in the National FinHealth 2017 Study. For the study, participants shared their sleep duration and dietary intake of fruits and vegetables. The researchers also looked at other factors such as socioeconomic status and demographics. They also used a sensitivity analysis to exclude “energy under-reporters” to remove that variable.

The researchers compared the average amount of fruits and vegetables eaten by people with different sleep durations—short sleepers (averaging 6 hours per night), normal (averaging 7.7 hours per night), and long (averaging 10.1 hours per night). They found that short sleepers consumed 37 fewer grams of fruits and vegetables a day than normal sleepers and long sleepers consumed 73 grams less per day. Plus, that correlation held true with a variety of statistical models.

Given the strong link between fruit and vegetable consumption and sleep duration, the researchers emphasized the importance of looking at lifestyle variables when treating sleep disorders. They also recommend focusing on the fruit and vegetable groups with the strongest association, such as leafy greens.

Could your health problems be a non-alcoholic Fatty Liver?

fatty liver Not all fatty livers are caused by alcohol.  There are so many other reasons that you might have a fatty liver.  Toxins of all kinds create a problem.

The liver is the major organ for detoxification. It detoxifies, by metabolizing and/or secreting the toxins out of the body.  A damaged fatty liver does not work to do its job.

Think of all the problems that can be created when your body can’t metabolize food, supplements, etc.  nor able to detoxify viruses, fungus or bacteria.

Introducing Purelife Care+

This natural nutritional supplement that works at the cellular level to improve metabolism and gut health, thereby reducing insulin resistance and inflammation.

PureLife Care + is based on scientific studies, there are special natural ingredients that have been found to support an optimum metabolism. Due to the quality of food available today, most people are deficient in the vitamins and minerals needed by the body for optimal health.  With all these positive nutritional effects of PureLife Care+ you will notice a difference in your health.

What makes Purelife Care+ Different from other Supplements?

Have you ever found a supplement that you felt was going to improve your health, or help your health challenge. and found it didn’t work? But the ingredients seem so right for this problem?

Unfortunately, many supplements do not provide the hoped-for nutritional benefits because the ingredients never make it to the cells where the nutrition is needed to improve health.

The effectiveness of natural nutrition depends on how quickly and efficiently the nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream and how easily the nutritional elements can pass across every cell membrane, access target sites within the cells, be absorbed, and interact with all the relevant enzymes and other cellular components to create their health enhancing abilities.

Purelife Care+, the result of 27 years of research, offers the solution to this problem because it contains ERDS™, which are natural ingredients that enhance absorption of the important nutrition by the cells.

ERDS improves the amount of absorption of nutrients by 300% and the speed of absorption by 500% so the needed nutrition reaches the cells and you get the results you want.

It contains special, natural ingredients that help to support good overall health. It can be helpful to consume these ingredients all in one supplement and PureLife Care+ has that.
