2. Excessive Sugar – A Burden for the Liver
A diet high in sugar, especially fructose found in sodas, candy, and processed foods, can lead to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. When too much sugar is consumed, the excess sugar in the blood forces the liver to convert it into fat. Over time, the accumulation of fat in the liver can cause inflammation and reduce its ability to function.
To protect the liver, experts recommend limiting the consumption of sugary drinks, avoiding foods with refined carbohydrates, and increasing the intake of vegetables and fresh fruits. Consuming natural sugars from healthy foods will reduce the burden on the liver and promote overall health.
