REDUCE fat in your liver… with fat?

For years, the medical community and food manufacturers have demonized dietary fat as the source of all your health problems.

The claim?

Fat will make you fat!

The only problem is… it’s a big FAT lie.

We’ve known this for years. But now, a recent study has shown that eating MORE fat can help improve two of the most dangerous health threats people face today.

In recent years, there’s been a major increase in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

It’s called non-alcoholic because while, in the past, liver disease was associated with alcoholism, modern dietary habits have caused liver disease to skyrocket in non-drinkers as well.

Well, it turns out that eating more fat can actually REDUCE fat in your liver.

Researchers performed liver biopsies and measured HbA1c levels at the beginning of the study and six months later.

The patients were divided into two dietary groups:

• One followed a low-carb, high-fat diet.
• The other followed a high-carb, low-fat diet.

Overall, more patients in the high-fat group saw improvements in their NAFLD activity score (NAS). And fewer patients in the high-fat group experienced worsening of their scores.

In fact, only one percent of the high-fat group had a decline in their score, compared to 23 percent in the low-fat group.

In addition, the high-fat group experienced significant improvements in the HbA1c, with a reduction of 9.5 (compared to just 3.4 in the low-fat group).

Ironically, the high-fat group also lost a large amount of weight (5.7 kg vs. 1.8 kg), even though they were allowed to eat as much dietary fat as they wanted on the program.

The high-fat diet consists of foods like cheese, cream, dairy, nuts, seeds, and olive oil.

Eat these foods for better blood sugar—and even for weight loss.

And don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

P.S. I recently shared six key nutrients that have been proven to help fight fatty liver. Click here to read about them.
