Our calorie-rich but nutrient-poor diet has led<br>to an epidemic of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) that tracks our<br>rising obesity and diabetes rates (1). Autopsies and ultrasound studies have<br>shown that up to 75% of the obese and 70-85% of type 2 diabetics have fatty<br>livers. And the low-profile but essential nutrient choline appears to provide<br>the solution to the problem (1, 2).<\/p><p><b>What is NAFLD?<\/b><\/p><p>NAFLD develops in two stages (1). In the first stage fat accumulates in the<br>liver. This fat can come from several sources: free fatty acids released into<br>the blood by fat tissue, lipogenesis in the liver from carbohydrates<br>(especially fructose from HFCS or table sugar), and dietary fats carried to the<br>liver by chylomicron remnants. Fatty liver disease is a silent epidemic because<br>its first stage, fat accumulation, generally doesn't produce overt symptoms.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dreddyclinic.com\/forum\/viewtopic.php?f=37&amp;t=26823&amp;sid=0f426ef2f432ce770f3215273152132c\"> Readmore&hellip;<\/a><\/p><\/div><div><\/div><div><span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.india-herbs.com\/aff\/dreddyclinic\/cardiofy\">Cardiofy Heart Care Supplement<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div><div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.longevitymedicine.tv\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-o-matic\/cache\/a4ee3_19559880-9164489176108745379?l=integrated-medicine.blogspot.com\" alt=\"\" style=\"padding-left:10px; padding-right: 10px;\"><\/div><p>Source:<br><a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/integratedmedicine\">http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/integratedmedicine<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by: Helmut BeierbeckFatty liver disease used to be associated with alcoholism, but it is no longerrestricted to heavy drinkers.
