Episode 458: A Functional Approach to Fatty LiverIn this episode, we explore the vital role of the liver in overall metabolic health and why fatty liver disease has become increasingly common. We dive into the liver’s many functions, including detoxification, fat metabolism, and hormone regulation, highlighting how disruption in these processes contributes to fat accumulation in the liver. Understanding the root causes—from diet and lifestyle factors to environmental toxins and insulin resistance—is key to addressing this growing health concern.
We also focus on actionable, food-as-medicine strategies to support liver function and promote reversal of fatty liver disease. Listeners will learn about key nutrients, dietary patterns, and lifestyle habits that nourish the liver, reduce inflammation, and improve metabolic flexibility. Plus we discuss how a ketogenic approach can literally reverse fatty liver, supplemental support and favorite recipes to support liver health!
