The liver is the "headquarters" of the human body's detoxification. However, due to people's lack of knowledge and concepts about liver protection, the influence of many factors such as unhealthy lifestyles and drugs, while our lives are getting better and better, the liver is becoming more and more fragile, and the incidence of various liver diseases and liver cancer is also on the rise. Therefore, it is urgent to pay attention to the three livers and protect the liver! The pathogenesis of the three liver diseases is different. Fatty liver is caused by a high-fat diet, lack of exercise, etc. Alcoholic liver disease is caused by drinking; Drug-induced liver damage is caused by long-term medication or abuse of "tonics". The treatment mechanisms of the three liver diseases are also different. But the common point is that liver protection treatment can achieve the effect of "1+1>2" when combined with drug treatment, which not only consolidates the treatment of liver disease itself, but also keeps the liver in a better state, reduces the occurrence of malignant complications such as cirrhosis and liver fibrosis, and puts the treatment into a "virtuous circle". Good days bring fatty liver The high-risk groups for fatty liver are men over 40 years old, women over 50 years old and those with abdominal obesity. The scary thing about fatty liver is that it often "comes in pairs", usually combined with a series of chronic diseases such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. The treatment of fatty liver mainly involves paying attention to lifestyle and taking medications. Diet control is very important. Maintain proper nutrition but not excessively. High-fat, high-cholesterol foods, in particular, should be limited. Alcohol must be abstained from absolutely because it can aggravate fatty liver. In addition, you should increase physical activity and control your weight appropriately, but don't lose weight blindly. If you have chronic hepatitis, don't over-supplement your nutrition when your liver function is abnormal, because improper "food supplements" can induce or aggravate fatty liver disease in chronic liver patients. Don't take liver medicine lightly The so-called liver damage caused by taking medicine is called drug-induced liver injury. All drugs are metabolized by the liver, so the liver is naturally the "hardest hit area" of drug-induced liver injury. Among the drugs that may damage the liver are non-steroidal antipyretic analgesics, anti-tuberculosis drugs, chemotherapy drugs, etc.; some Chinese herbal medicines, the more common ones are: Polygonum multiflorum, Tripterygium wilfordii, centipede powder, blister beetle, realgar, holly leaves, Oleaster chinensis, Scutellaria baicalensis, pomegranate peel, Xanthium sibiricum, Polygonum cuspidatum, pomegranate peel, Dioscorea bulbifera, Aristolochia, Stephania tetrandra, etc. People with chronic diseases who need to take large amounts of medication, pregnant women, children, the elderly, and those who already have liver disease are all at high risk of drug-induced liver disease. |
