Here are some unusual signs of fatty liver disease to watch out for;
Having high cholesterol levels
Excess amounts of cholesterol in your blood can be an indication that the liver is too fatty. The liver is normally responsible for processing and regulating body cholesterol. In situations where one has fatty liver disease, the liver releases more fats in the blood that increase the total LDL cholesterol.
Unhealthy binge eating habits
Commonly fatty liver disease is linked with poor appetite, surprisingly it can trigger binge eating especially in foods that are high in fats or sugars accompanied by endless hunger feelings.
Other signs include edema, constant fatigue, jaundice, mental confusion, red palm, nosebleeds, and ascites.
How to ease fatty liver disease symptoms
I recommend the following ways to lessen fatty liver disease
- Eat healthily, add more fruits and veggies in your diets while limiting your intake of trans or saturated fats.
- Focus on healthy weight loss by engaging in moderate to intense exercises daily and adopting healthy diets.
- Reduce your cholesterol levels, and manage diabetes.
- Quit alcohol consumption if it’s the main causative.
