Six natural enemies of the liver
"hepatitis virus"
Hepatitis viruses are the primary enemy of liver health, and they often drag patients into the death path of hepatitis-cirrhosis-liver cancer. At present, scientists have discovered six kinds of hepatitis viruses: A, B, C, D, E and G, among which B, C and G are the most dangerous. The most effective means is vaccination, such as hepatitis A and hepatitis B vaccine.
"food pollution"
Food pollution includes pesticide residues in vegetables and fruits; Water pollution, such as the pollution of water by chemical toxic substances; Smoked and roasted foods and spoiled foods, such as long-bud potatoes; Some food additives; Food pollution will not cause harm in a short time, but the accumulation of long-term chronic toxic effects will damage liver function.
"alcohol"
Alcohol is a very strange molecule, which can be dissolved in both water and oil. Once in the human body, it will be like a duck to water, everywhere. There is almost no place in the human body where it can't go. The first bad luck is the liver, because alcohol itself is toxic enough to harm the liver. Fatty liver is the earliest symptom, which can be formed after a few days of heavy drinking, and then it will lead to "fibrosis" and then alcoholic liver disease, and then the situation will get worse and worse, and eventually it will develop into irreversible "cirrhosis".
"medicine"
Survey data show that drug-induced liver damage accounts for about 10% of inpatients. It is reported that 43% of patients with "acute hepatitis" over 50 years old are caused by drugs. Such as aspirin, sulfanilamide, penicillin, rifampicin, etc. It is a commonly used drug harmful to the liver. Even those seemingly safe drugs (such as nutrition and health products, tonics, etc. ) will cause hidden dangers to the liver due to misuse or abuse. So don't take medicine casually, especially oral medicine, almost 100% is processed by the liver.
"Stay up late"
If you often stay up late, it will not only lead to lack of sleep, but also affect the self-repair of the liver at night. "Late sleepers" should try their best to adjust their sleep time, and it is best to fall asleep before 1 1 every night to ensure adequate sleep for 7-8 hours every night, so as to effectively detoxify the liver and ensure overall health.
In addition, a variety of harmful substances in cigarettes will reduce the detoxification function of liver cells, so it is better to quit smoking strictly.
The liver has natural enemies, and naturally there are saviors. The "little savior" of the liver is as follows.
1, red dates
Jujube is a good product for women's health, but for people with poor liver, eating jujube is also very helpful to their health. Then, research shows that some people who eat dates continuously will recover much faster than those who only eat vitamins. Then, jujube is also called natural vitamin pill, and people with poor liver function can eat more jujube.
Step 2: carrots
We all know that carrots are rich in vitamins, but I wonder if you have heard that carrots are food that can expel mercury. They can help us expel mercury ions from the blood and reduce the concentration of mercury ions, so that our bodies will be healthier.
In addition, carotene in carrots contains vitamin A, which can help our liver excrete toxins from the body and reduce the fat in the liver, thus helping to discharge the garbage in the intestines and accelerating the excretion of these garbage, so we can eat more carrots in peacetime.
3. Pig blood
According to Compendium of Materia Medica, pig blood has the function of detoxification, which is beneficial to detoxification of liver. Our country has long known that eating the blood of animals such as pigs can remove dirt from the body. Take a deep breath every day, spit out polluted air and eat pig blood soup often, which is very necessary to maintain liver function.
