Liver Disease
Have you been told that you have a fatty liver? Are you concerned about the problems this can cause, like liver inflammation, scarring, and even worse? In this video, your are going to learn three research-tested acupressure points that have been shown to be an effective treatment for fatty liver.
Fatty liver, sometimes called non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, is a silent condition. Imagine your liver silently struggling without you even knowing. This is the reality for many dealing with fatty liver. As fat accumulates in the liver, it sets the stage for liver inflammation and damage. But here's the catch--a fatty liver usually doesn't announce itself. Symptoms, if they appear, might be vague: fatigue, a general feeling of being unwell, or discomfort in the upper right abdomen. It's like a whisper of warning from your body, easily missed until it's too late.
No one knows exactly why fat builds up in some livers and not others. Genetics, obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and high blood fat levels all play a role. Yet a fatty liver can sneak into life without any of these risk factors. And health problems can occur as a result of fatty liver. Liver scarring, known as cirrhosis, is the main issue. In response to inflammation, the liver replaces liver cells with scar tissue, reducing overall liver function. This gradual deterioration underscores the urgency of addressing fatty liver disease early.
Medications are sometimes recommended, and can provide important relief, but none are curative, and they can have significant side effects. One bright spot is the studies showing that acupuncture point stimulation can be a natural treatment for fatty liver. A review of eight randomized controlled studies, comprising 939 patients, showed that acupuncture point stimulation was superior to conventional treatment in improving overall results. It also showed that when acupuncture point stimulation was combined with conventional treatment, the results were even better.
In the next few minutes, I will show you how to find and activate three points important therapeutic points identified in these studies. These points are arranged for optimal effectiveness, so I recommend following them in the sequence presented.
