The doctor named the products that negatively affect the liver and cause it the greatest damage.
Gastroenterologist Valeria Lomova shared a comment on this topic.
In an interview with Vedomosti , the expert called for moderation in the consumption of foods that are rich in animal fats.
Fatty meats (lamb, pork, duck, goose), lard, butter, margarine and sausages, when consumed in excess, destroy the liver.
A similar recommendation applies to flour products and sweets (cakes, pastries). Fast food is also harmful to the liver, the doctor reminded.
Alcohol is also on the list of the main enemies of this organ. Alcohol abuse leads to complications, including fibrosis and cirrhosis of the liver.
In addition, the doctor advised to be careful with fruit consumption. Large amounts of fructose provoke fatty degeneration of the liver.
To strengthen the health of the organ, it is recommended to eat unsweetened berries, the gastroenterologist summed up.
For reference
The liver is a vital gland of mixed secretion in vertebrates, including humans, located in the abdominal cavity.
