Hi everyone,
I'm new to this group and need some advice. Here is my story. I had an ultrasound done to rule out gallbladder problems a few weeks ago. The scan showed my gallbladder was fine but that I had a fatty liver. Is a fatty liver a sign of fatty liver disease or is it fatty liver disease? What should I do next? I'm 28 years old, 5 foot 4 inches and about 200 pounds. I also have high cholesterol and heartburn. Right now I don't have any motivation to exercise or eat right but I should. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Posted on 12/02/07, 11:12 pm |

According to my doctor, you should lower your fat and sugar intake, as well as minimizing alcohol. I was also told not to take Tylonel because it is hard on the liver, so have to use something else and the final thing is to loose weight. I am overweight, have high cholesterol and triglycerides, so my doc also put me on Zocor to reduce the cholesterol. I hope this info helps...hugs jilly

Also, remove any Nutrasweet products from your diet. BAD PRODUCT NUTRASWEET! It metabolizes as formeldahyde, and methylAlchol which cannot be broken down and can cause fatty liver and liver toxicity.

So I do with our alot of fruits , no juices or tomato base products Just dont give up, I do all the time and always say tomorrow is another day. Today I just ate steamed veggies and drank water, hope tis not too late to help myself since my liver has been inflamed all day, Best of luck and hang in there.
