7 Bad Habits That Ruins Your Liver

Avoid these 7 liver-damaging habits to prevent liver disease and a fatty liver. These habits destroy liver health!

0:00 Introduction: What causes liver problems?
0:10 Over-the-counter pills
0:26 Liver damage from Tylenol
1:13 Sedentary lifestyle and liver damage
2:30 Poor diet and eating habits
7:18 Stress and liver health
8:20 Alcohol
9:58 Vitamin deficiencies

1. Over-the-counter pills
Tylenol is the number 1 cause of acute liver failure. Many people don’t realize the dangers of over-the-counter medications. Some people even take them routinely.

Milk thistle increases liver regeneration and has unique properties that support liver health. NAC also protects the liver.

2. Sedentary lifestyle
Eating calories that you’re not burning off causes damage and oxidative stress at the cellular level. Exercise can burn off excess fuel, strengthen the immune system, increase oxygen throughout the body, and reduce stress. Try to get into the habit of regular exercise or physical work.

3. Unhealthy diet
Seed oil combined with starch or sugar is the basis for almost all junk food and is highly damaging to the body, especially the liver. These foods create insulin resistance in the liver, which is at the root of chronic health concerns such as belly fat, obesity, fatty liver, and high blood pressure.

4. Eating for convenience
Many people live busy lives and eat on the go. This usually means fast food, poor-quality food, and poor-quality protein, which is damaging to liver health. Take the time to prepare your meals and plan what you will eat for the week.

5. Stress
Stress can cause sleep problems that interfere with your blood sugar levels. Chronic stress can even activate dormant viruses. Vitamin B1, vitamin D, exercise, and long walks can all help reduce stress.

6. Alcohol
Alcohol goes straight to the liver! Mixed drinks are the worst because they contain alcohol and sugar. Avoid making alcohol a part of your everyday routine.

7. Vitamin deficiencies
Phytonutrients are essential for liver function. Consume cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and arugula regularly to help the liver detoxify. Salads with garlic and onion, grass-fed beef, and wild fish are rich in nutrients that help protect the liver.

      I got the chance to watch the whole video before it disappeared, it’s an interesting video. ( i’m not going to spoil it for you, so i’m not going into details) they are probably going to upload it tomorrow, they just uploaded it today accidentally i think.

      Edit: it’s a posibility it got censored because i’ve realized it doesn’t appear in my history of videos that i was watching. Like a guy below in the comments said, big fo*d working even on the weekends, now that’s admirable big f*odie. We’ll just wait until he uploads it on rømbl€.

    When Dr. Berg said “I literally had to be so sick, be in so much pain before I said, that’s it.” I feel you doc–I have come kicking and fighting the obvious for decades, eliminating one bad habit/ food per every 5 years or so…but here I am grain free, no alcohol, only grass fed meats, sardines, low carbs except food I grow myself in careful moderation (like fresh berries and fruit off the tree).

    FINALLY getting better for Good–have to before I end up sensitive to everything….edit: he could have added vaccinations which made me turn yellow and almost killed me–but of course his video would have been removed.

    When I was little my guardian would give me Tylenol when I was sick, I did read once somewhere that Tylenol did contribute to liver issues, which were a major problem for me growing up. Sugar didn’t help either, but that and some other forms of medication as a young child certainly didn’t help my liver either.

    That being said, I guess carbs, over eating, similarly to alcohol are all forms of self hatred. I’m somewhere where I can see a vending machine nearby, and all I can think of as I see the colorful packaging inside is _inflammation._ and more embarrassing forms of inflammation. You have given me a road map. It’s not that I couldn’t learn my lesson, it’s just that I didn’t know what was doing my what to my body and what insulin resistance even was. Keto has changed my life for the better and made it possible to begin to resolve other self defeating behaviors.

    Bless you and thank you, always.

    So, I always kind of wondered about when he says he feels like crap after eating junk food, because you know when we’re younger, we don’t think it care about that, typically. I turned 41 a few days ago. I can honestly say, there’s a noticable difference to how I feel whether I eat well or not.❤
