Fat is a traditional product of Ukrainian cuisine, which is undoubtedly a delicious addition to many dishes. However, according to doctors, excessive consumption of this product can seriously affect the health of the liver.
Although fat has some beneficial properties, its excessive use can cause liver problems. This is due to the high content of saturated fatty acids (up to 43%) and cholesterol, which significantly overload the body. The liver, which is responsible for fat metabolism, is forced to work with increased load, which can lead to impaired lipid metabolism. Prolonged overload of the liver can lead to the development of non -infectious hepatitis - steatohepatitis. It is a disease that is characterized by the accumulation of fat in liver cells, which, in turn, can cause inflammation of the tissues of the organ and impaired function. In the case of late treatment, it can lead to serious complications such as cirrhosis or even liver failure.
Despite the presence of negative aspects, the fat also has a number of beneficial properties. It is a source of fat -soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, which are necessary for the normal functioning of the body. In addition, fat contains essential fatty acids and selenium - a trace element that supports the immune system. Given all the advantages and disadvantages of this product, nutritionists advise to eat fat in moderation. Doctors recommend that you include it in the diet no more than several times a week and avoid daily use. "Falo is a product not every day. I would say that fat is a product from the discharge of delicacies. It can be afforded as often as, for example, natural red caviar," the nutritionist notes.
Fat can be part of a healthy diet if used in moderation. The liver needs support, so it is important not to overload it with excessive quantities of fatty foods. As in any other case, the key to health is in balance and moderation.
