Here's what alcohol abuse can do to your gut and liver health, and these are problems that I'm seeing all the time. Here's what a normal liver should look like, and years of alcohol abuse makes it look like this. It's shrunken. It has a lot of fat deposition. It's scarred. Eventually, it stops working, and that can be irreversible. Alcohol can cause pancreatitis, which is inflammation of the pancreas and hospitalizes people every year. Alcohol can cause gas ritis and ulcers that can cause life threatening bleeding. Alcohol use puts you at risk for the development of cancers in the colon, stomach and esophagus. It's on the rise here in America so always be cognizant about how much alcohol you're intaking. As we go into 2025 make taking care of your gut and liver health one of your resolutions.

One of the main health harms from alcohol, especially heavy alcohol use, is liver damage. The first thing that happens is inflammation of the liver. And when your liver gets inflamed, you start getting fat deposit in the liver. That actually can totally reverse if you stop drinking or you make changes. The amazing thing with the liver. It's a really regenerative organ. But there is a point where you cross the threshold where you can no longer repair the damage, and that's when you get to a stage called cirrhosis. From fat deposition, then you start getting scarring. Your body lays down all the scar tissue because of the chronic inflammation in your liver and when your liver becomes so scarred that it's really stiff and and starts not functioning well that's cirrhosis. I'm seeing people in their early 30s with cirrhosis in the hospital. What? Yes.

Alcohol stops fat loss for twenty four to thirty six hours because it's a toxin. When you ingest it, your liver has to process it right away. Therefore, it does not have time for any of the food you ate before, nor does it have time for the food you eat after. So guess what happens? It pretty much gets stored to fat. the protein you're trying to eat, the protein synthesis goes down, oh, like 60% or something. I only drink three times a year now. Number one, I was drinking two to three times per week. I was under eating during the week and overeating on the weekend and that ended up very fluffy for me. the third thing that was going wrong with me was my thyroid. My thyroid was jacked up and I didn't know. three mistakes that I was making.

Main offender is alcohol. I know that's not the offender in you. But the main offender for liver inflammation is alcohol because it's not the alcohol itself. It's what the alcohol becomes. Alcohol is converted into something called acetaldehyde, which makes your blood pH very low, very acidic, and this irritates the the liver. But don't forget the liver's filtering out everything. The liver is like if you want any organ on team Ryan, you want the liver. Right? It can take over the function of other organs. Main offender is alcohol. I know that's not the offender in you.

We often think about sleep in terms of energy and productivity, but you might be surprised to learn that it also plays a critical role in maintaining liver health. Research shows that consistently getting less than eight hours of sleep per night is associated with a higher risk of developing liver disease. For individuals who already have liver disease, poor sleep can make their symptoms worse, leading to worsen fatigue, cognitive impairment, and overall reduced quality of life. The liver and your sleep quantity and quality are definitely connected. Liver disease negatively affects sleep through multiple mechanisms. First, reduced liver health disrupts your body's natural melatonin levels. Melatonin is an essential hormone that regulates our sleep and wake cycles. So when melatonin is dysregulated, it can lead to sleep disturbances. On the other hand, chronic sleep deprivation can worsen liver disease itself. Poor sleep has been linked to insulin resistance, increased inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction, all of which can contribute to liver fat accumulation, fibrosis progression, and as damage accumulates over the long term, cirrhosis.

Because the liver could get too sick to the point so you can have up to ninety percent of the liver damaged, and it will grow back. You know, when you do a live liver transplant, let's say you need a live liver transplant, I offer to be a live donor, we'll take a third of my liver out, we'll put that little third into you, and that will grow to a fully double loved organ, usually within six months, could be shorter. And with as soon as up to thirty days, mine will have grown back. So no organ does that. You can't do that with the heart or with the stomach or this lining or anything else, but the liver does do that.

Excess calories, especially from refined sugars, processed grains, and seed oils, cause fat buildup in the liver. High fructose corn syrup goes directly to the liver and converts to fat. When the liver is overwhelmed, it stores the excess calories as fat, leading to fatty liver. The stored fat causes oxidative stress and inflammation, damaging the liver. The immune system responds by laying down scar tissue, called fibrosis. Continued fibrosis leads to cirrhosis, a hardened, damaged liver that cannot function properly. Overworked liver cells are more likely to mutate, increasing the risk of cancer. Fatty liver is a chain reaction of damage that can be deadly if ignored.

Drinking fresh squeezed beet juice over an extended period of time is highly beneficial for supporting a healthy liver. Start with 1 ounce of beet juice per week and gradually increase it by 1 ounce each week until reaching 4 ounces a day. Adding other ingredients like carrot and apple can enhance the taste. Beet juice stimulates the growth of new liver cells, known as Genesis. Interestingly, the liver is the only organ capable of regenerating itself, even if 70% of it is surgically removed.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, abbreviated to NAFLD, is characterized by excessive fat in the liver cells, specifically triglycerides. These fat deposits interfere with the functioning of liver cells. The early stages of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease can be asymptomatic. However, it can progress to hepatitis and liver cirrhosis. Around twenty five percent of adults are estimated to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, so it's very common.

The liver is a recoverable organ and can be revived with the right conditions. There are herbs like milk thistle, dandelion, and gentian that can cleanse and tone the liver. These herbs are very bitter, so it's best to take them in a glycerin tincture or tablet form. Lemon also acts as a tonic for the liver. Wearing a castor or compress over the liver area for 4 or 5 hours a day can also help. By implementing these measures, the liver can gradually recover.

Fatty liver is caused by, for the most part, overconsumption of sugars and specifically fructose and sucrose, with sucrose being just table sugar that breaks down into fructose and glucose. The consumption of both fructose and sugar sets off a whole cascade of changes in our bodies that leads to not only fatty liver, but also to other conditions like diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and even many cancers.

So non alcoholic fatty liver disease is a liver manifestation of metabolic syndrome. So in that setting, liver accumulates fat when normally it should not accumulate that amount. A little fat is normal in the liver, but more than 5% slows down the organ's ability to filter toxins from the body. If it's not treated, it can lead to more severe complications, fibrosis, which in other words means scarring of the livers. And if this it's also progressing can lead to, hepatocarcinomas or cancer and kind of a terminal disease of the liver.

The human liver can grow back up to 70% of its size in just a few weeks. That means that even if a pretty significant portion of your liver is lost, it can literally regenerate and become goddamn near as good as new. Unfortunately, your liver is the only part of the body that has that kind of superpowers, so don't go trying it on your finger. That also means that it's the only organ in the body that you can donate half of to somebody else, and both halves will literally grow back into their own functioning livers. After all, it's literally the only thing that will stop it from magically healing itself. So don't destroy your liver just in case you need it to regenerate later or you wanna donate part of it to someone else. Stay healthy, my friends. You're welcome.

Tylenol, or acetaminophen, can severely damage the liver, leading to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. It dissolves liver tissue, impairing liver function and increasing fat accumulation. In the UK and the US, many liver transplants result from Tylenol overdoses, especially around the holidays when teenagers often misuse it. One Tylenol can cause as much liver damage as six pints of beer. Combining Tylenol with alcohol significantly multiplies the damage. It's crucial to avoid taking Tylenol if consuming alcohol, even for headaches. Additionally, high-sugar products, particularly those with high fructose corn syrup, can worsen fatty liver, with Diet Coke being more harmful than regular Coke due to its chemicals.

When you ingest alcohol, you are, yes, ingesting a poison. There are three main types of alcohol. There's isopropyl, methyl, and ethyl alcohol, and only ethyl alcohol or ethanol is fit for human consumption. However, it is still toxic. It produces substantial stress and damage to cells. When you ingest ethanol, it has to be converted into something else because it is toxic to the body. And there's a molecule inside of all of us called NAD. NAD are involved in converting that ethanol into something called acetaldehyde. And if you thought ethanol was bad, acetaldehyde is particularly bad. Acetaldehyde is poison. It will kill cells. It damages and kills cells and is indiscriminate as to which cells it damages and kills. Now that's a problem.

Fatty liver disease is characterized by excess fat in the liver, which can lead to serious health issues when it replaces healthy liver cells. Insulin resistance is a significant risk factor, with 80-85% of individuals with insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes also having fatty liver disease. Obesity, particularly waist circumference, and a sedentary lifestyle further contribute to the condition. The nomenclature has shifted from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) to emphasize its metabolic aspects. The liver is crucial for detoxification, vitamin absorption, and hormone production. Fatty liver disease can impair these functions, leading to a higher mortality rate from related conditions like heart disease and liver cancer. Lifestyle choices, particularly diet, play a critical role in managing fatty liver disease. Diet colas and ultra-processed foods should be limited, as they can disrupt blood sugar regulation and contribute to cravings for unhealthy foods. Key dietary recommendations include consuming real foods, such as coffee, berries, green tea, and healthy fats like olive oil. Physical activity is also essential; even small amounts can significantly improve liver health. Mindful eating and intermittent fasting are beneficial strategies. GLP-1 medications show promise for managing fatty liver disease, but long-term strategies for discontinuation need to be considered. Overall, prioritizing real food and movement can greatly enhance liver health and overall well-being.
