Singer has embraced a healthier lifestyle since his diagnosis; know everything
Agree with the doctor. Rafael Nicastro, digestive system surgeon, the disease is very silent. After all, in general, it shows no symptoms in the patient. However, when they do occur, the most common are abdominal pain and fatigue.
In addition, the doctor emphasizes that it is important to remain vigilant at all times, as the disease has a risk of turning into liver failure or even cirrhosis, which can also lead to liver cancer. Other organs can also be affected depending on the degree of the disease and the evolution time.
Alcohol consumption and obesity are the main factors
Fatty liver disease is the first lesion that occurs in those who have the habit of consuming a lot of alcohol, even in subjects who are not considered alcoholics. By the way, the incidence occurs in 90% of those who drink alcohol too much, says Yago Fernandes, a doctor who works in endocrinology at Instituto Nutrindo Ideals and a specialist in weight loss and hypertrophy. “Most of the metabolization of alcohol is done by the liver. As alcohol is metabolized, toxic substances are produced by the body itself”, details.
At the same time, fat droplets accumulate in liver cells called hepatocytes, making these cells deficient. The evolution of fatty liver disease is inflammation of the liver, called alcoholic hepatitis, which affects 10% to 35% of people. In the most serious cases they develop cirrhosis, which affects about 10-20% of those who abuse alcoholic beverages. The damage caused by cirrhosis is irreversible and may require a liver transplant, warns the specialist.
How to treat fatty liver disease?
Finally, Yago says there is no definitive treatment for fatty liver disease. And, according to him, doctors are recommending routine changes, just like the ones Jojo Todynho did. That is, try to maintain a healthy diet and exercise more to control excess weight, insulin resistance, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and blood pressure.
Furthermore, there is also a surgical treatment. However, it is exclusive to severe cases that evolve with cirrhosis and liver failure. In these cases, liver transplantation is required.
