hey guys in this video we’re gonna talk about a fatty liver and your thyroid okay if you have a fatty liver chances are that’s going to slow your thyroid down because let’s take from the top high levels of insulin from a lot of refined carbohydrates and frequent eating will put fat on the liver you’re going to get inflammation and you’re gonna get scar tissue which will eventually develop into something called cirrhosis in fact this is called non-alcoholic fatty liver disease okay this can also come from being an alcoholic so the damage from high insulin from a lot of sugar is almost identical from the damage from alcohol especially if you’re consuming it from high fructose corn syrup okay because the fructose really will damage the liver or faster than other sugars and the average American consumes forty four point seven gallons of liquid sugar every single year okay so how do you know if you have a fatty liver well if you have a gut you’re gonna have a fatty liver okay because the fat is spilling over from the liver around the abdomen it’s called the visceral fat however the best way to identify a fatty liver is ultrasound but what’s going to happen if you have a fatty liver the function of the liver is gonna go down and the cholesterol is going to start building up too because you’re going to get a decrease of production of bile so when you have a liver damage and not enough bile you can’t effectively remove cholesterol too well okay so that’s one problem and then we have the thyroid over here the thyroid produces a hormone called t4 and then the liver helps you convert t4 to t3 which is the active form of a fire at hormone this is inactive this is active if the liver is damaged you’re not going to convert enough into t3 and you’re going to have a condition known as hypothyroidism so now you have a slow thyroid which will then build up more cholesterol slow your metabolism cause more weight gain so really high insulin will affect your thyroid because of the liver all right so what do you do well what you do is you get on keto and another fascinating to handle this okay increase a lot of cruciferous vegetables increase vegetables in general to help heal the fatty liver over time you can reverse this if it’s not too far gone the next thing I would recommend is choline you can get it in a powdered form some people are mixing it with the electrolyte powder to make it taste better but choline is the B vitamin to help remove the fat off the liver pretty fast I mean you can do it within within months so I would add that in there with really healthy cruciferous vegetables and doing a version of keto I call healthy ketosis and of course in a minute fasting that’s how you’re going to handle the fatty liver that’s how you can improve your thyroid all right thanks for watching hey guys so I’m doing a survey of a future video and I wanted to find out what your biggest body problem is so that way the content is aligning with something that you are personally interested in so please click the link down below fill it out and I will create the video thanks
