Knowing the Symptoms of Liver Disease Could Save your Life

Knowing the Symptoms of Liver Disease Could Save your Life

 

Knowing how to recognize the symptoms of liver disease can save your life. As with so many illnesses and diseases, liver disease, if spotted early enough, can be arrested, and cured (providing the causes have been identified and are avoided in the future), and your liver can fully recover, growing new healthy tissue to replace any that has been damaged, just as long as the disease has not been allowed to progress too far – hence the importance of knowing what the warning signs to look out for.

An organ and a gland

Your liver is the largest internal organ (and also the largest internal gland) that you have in your body. In a healthy adult, a normal liver will weigh somewhere between 3 to 3.5 pounds and it plays a crucial role in a number of body system functions.

The functions of the liver

The key functions of the liver are to detoxify your blood, and to enhance your digestive system by creating bile, which helps to break down the fats that you consume into small pieces, making them easier for your small intestine to absorb. But that’s not all. Here is a quick summary of what your liver does for you:
-It detoxes your blood, filtering out any harmful and unwanted substances like drugs and alcohol
-It produces bile to aid digestion
-It stores some of your body’s vitamins and iron
-It stores glucose
-It converts glucose into sugar that the body can use when the body’s sugar levels become depleted
-It processes hemoglobin, insulin and a variety of other hormones
-It converts ammonia into urea; an essential ingredient for healthy metabolism
-It eliminates old red blood cells, which produces fecal matter which is normally brown in color. This is why when your stools are discolored (i.e. not brown) it can be an indication there is something wrong with your liver function.

Without a healthy liver, any holistic health lifestyle will become severely compromised, and depending on the nature and severity of disease, could prove fatal; which is why it’s so important to be able to detect and interpret the early symptoms of liver disease.

Hepatic disease

Liver disease is also sometimes referred to as hepatic disease. When any type of hepatic disease affects up to three quarters of your liver tissue, that’s when a significant increase in liver function can be detected.

The causes of liver disease

Liver disease can be brought about in a number of different ways.
-Its cells may be inflamed, as with hepatitis
-The passage of bile may become obstructed, as in cholestasis
-A build-up of cholesterol may occur
-The flow of blood to the liver can be damaged
-The tissue of the liver may be attacked and damaged by toxins

Alcohol abuse and cirrhosis of the liver

The most common cause of liver disease in North America is alcohol abuse. The final stage of liver disease (when the liver sustains severe scarring and cannot regenerate replacement tissue), is known as cirrhosis of the liver, and this is responsible for approximately 25,000 deaths per annum here in North America.

The classic symptoms of liver disease

The most frequent and common symptoms of liver disease include:
-Bad breath
-Black circles beneath the eyes
-Bad body odor
-Brown blemishes on the skin
-Coated tongue
-Discolored stools
-Flushed facial appearance
-Inflamed palms and soles of feet
-Swollen eyeballs
-Jaundice: the yellowing of the skin which can often also be evidenced in the whites of the eyes
-Nausea
-Pain – which is felt in the uppermost right hand quadrant of the abdomen
-Increased tendency to perspire excessively
Some people also suffer from fatigue and weight loss.

These symptoms of liver disease relate to hepatic disease in general. But there are also many different, specific, illnesses or diseases that affect the liver, and each of these has its own specific symptoms.

Gallstones

The symptoms of liver disease that are associated with gallstones, include pain in the upper right quadrant of the abdomen; vomiting, (having eaten a fatty or greasy meal); and if the gallbladder itself becomes infected, this may also bring about a fever.

Cirrhosis of the liver

As hepatic disease progresses and reaches the stage of cirrhosis, the following symptoms of liver disease may often appear.
-A tendency to bruise more easily. This is because the liver is no longer able to efficiently clot the blood
-Itchiness. The result of bile salts being deposited in the skin can cause itching
-Enlarged male breasts. This is a condition known as gynecomatia and can be brought about by upsetting the balance of sex hormones, and an increase in the hormone estradiol in particular.
-Erectile dysfunction. The upsetting of the balance of sex hormones can also bring about a reduction in sex drive and cause the testicles to shrink.
-Feeling confused. Feelings of confusion can arise when the levels of ammonia in the bloodstream become too high. This ammonia is normally removed from the bloodstream by a healthy liver, but when liver health is compromised, the sufferer may experience feelings of confusion.
-Feelings of lethargy. This is also potentially brought about by the increase in blood ammonia.
-Decrease in muscle tissue. A compromised liver will also reduce its production of proteins, and this can lead to the wasting of muscle.
-Swollen stomach veins.  Because blood pressure becomes increased with a cirrhotic liver, the blood flow to that liver receives can become compromised. This may result in a swelling to the veins around the stomach area.

The unusual metabolization of fats

Another of the prime symptoms of liver disease is the abnormal metabolization of fats (your metabolism), which can manifest itself in the following ways:
-Elevated levels of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, at the same time as decreased levels of HDL cholesterol.
-Hypertension or blood pressure caused by your blood vessels becoming blocked by fatty deposits. This can also potentially lead to stroke and heart attack.
-Fatty tumors and lymphomas developing in the skin
-Significant weight gain that could lead to obesity
-Difficulty in losing weight, even though you may be dieting
-A sluggishly slow metabolism
-Bloated stomach
-The appearance of cellulite
-Developing a roll of fat around the upper abdomen a.k.a. your own armchair.

Symptoms to look for with your digestive system

The symptoms of liver disease can also be seen in relation to the digestive system and can include things like:
-Constipation
-Hemorrhoids
-Indigestion and/or reflux
-The inability to tolerate alcohol
-The inability to tolerate fatty food
-Irritable bowel syndrome

Symptoms relating to blood sugar levels

The symptoms of liver damage that relate to blood sugar include things like:
-Developing a craving for sweet things
-Unstable levels of sugar in the blood, also known as hypoglycaemia
-The onset, in later life, of type II diabetes

Symptoms relating to your immune system

Poor liver health can also affect your immune system in which case the symptoms of liver disease to watch out for include:
-Developing new, allergies such as asthma, hay fever, and hives
-excessive itching
-Developing skin rashes
-An increased incidence of autoimmune disease
-Developing fibromyalgia
-An increase in the incidence of viral and bacterial infections

Spot the symptoms of liver damage and give your liver the chance to recover
The health of your liver, is not only crucial for a continued holistic health lifestyle, but is essential for any type of healthy lifestyle. The power of the liver to heal itself from many diseases brought about by alcoholic or non-alcoholic fatty liver is quite amazing; provided that the disease is spotted early; so knowing what the potential symptoms of liver disease are, as discussed above, and keeping a watchful eye out for them is absolutely crucial.

1. Studies show that people who eat 1 to 2 servings of dark chocolate had reduced risk of heart failure. It can also help lower the blood pressure and reduce the risk of stroke. The nerve cells of people consuming dark chocolate are less prone to a stroke as compared to people who do not consume dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is rich in minerals such as copper and magnesium which are responsible for keeping the blood pressure normal especially in case of people with excessive fluctuation in their BP. It also promotes blood circulation because it thins the blood and has anti-clotting properties. Cholesterol clogs the veins and arteries and doesn’t let them function normally. But dark chocolate reduces LDL which the bad cholesterol levels in the arteries and heart.
    
2. Dark chocolate is excellent for diabetic patients as it reduces insulin resistance and helps your body to use insulin efficiently. A certain ingredient in dark chocolate increases nitric oxide production and that helps control insulin sensitivity.
    
3. Dark chocolate can help people lose weight. It gives it a more filling effect and lessens your cravings for fatty, sweet and salty foods. If you incorporate a little portion of dark chocolate into your diet, you can get optimum health benefits without the weight gain.
    
4. A study showed that babies born to mothers, who consumed dark chocolates during their pregnancies, were happier and they smiled a lot more. So it is better to use dark chocolate during pregnancy rather than giving pacifiers to your crying babies after birth. It also relieves stress in mothers-to-be.
    
5. Stress is a bad factor and one should steer clear of it as much as possible. Phenylethalmine is an important chemical found in dark chocolates and it is this same chemical found in the brain that creates the experience and feeling of love. This same chemical also encourages the release of endorphins by your brain, a chemical essential for putting you in a good mood. Dark chocolates can also relieve stress by reducing the level of stress hormones. It contains serotonin which acts as a natural anti-depressant.
    
6. Dark chocolates prevent sun burns. It contains high levels of flavanols. A research study proved that flavanols found in chocolates can provide protection against harmful effects of the sun. Dark chocolate helps keep your skin healthy, glowing and flawless. Regular consumption of dark chocolate helps you achieve a smooth, problem free complexion and keeps your skin moist and well nourished. It helps in promoting blood circulation in the scalp which leads to increased growth of healthy hair. As dark chocolate is a circulation-booster, it is also found to be very effective in reducing hair loss
    
7. Chocolates boost brain power. Research showed that participants who consume chocolates high in flavanol contents scored high in cognitive tests. It improves the blood flow to the brain. Also drinking flavanol rich cocoa can regulate the flow of blood to the key parts of the brain, as a result its performance is improved.
    
8. Dark chocolates provide cough relief. It contains theobromine which is a chemical that is effective for treating cough.  It is better than other cough medicine, as it tastes good and does not have the negative side effects.
    
9. It treats diarrhea. Research showed that flavonoids present in dark chocolate help to bind the protein responsible for regulating fluid secretion in the intestine and thus it provides a relief from diarrhea.
    
10. Dark chocolate is one of the best cancer fighting foods. It inhibits the cancer cell division and reduces inflammation. While choosing chocolate, make sure it is atleat 70% cocoa.

LATEST CANCER INFORMATION

PLEASE SHARE IT TO PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND ELIMINATE CANCER, FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY … Must Read and Share

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.


11. An effective way to battle cancer is to STARVE the cancer cells by not feeding it with foods it needs to multiple.

What cancer cells feed on:

a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Note: Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.


b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells will starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes t o nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells.

To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water--best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines will become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor.

Anger, unforgiving and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.
