The liver is like a filter, working tirelessly to protect us from harmful substances.

Inflammation, cirrhosis and liver cancer threatens not only the drinkers, but those who drink an excessive amount of carbohydrates.

Scientists through experiments have found which diet has a positive effect on the liver.

Researchers at the University of Texas conducted an experiment to see what a positive effect on the liver — the low-carb or low-calorie diet.

The experiment involved patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Within 2 weeks the participants of the 1st group reduced the ration to 20 grams of carbohydrates a day, and 2nd- to 1500 kcal and 1200 kcal for men and women respectively.

Low-carb diet had enhanced weight loss and low calorie loss of liver fat. Weight reduction is the most effective mechanism to combat diseases of the liver, so the experts call a low-carb diet more effective.
