So your saying aspirin usage is only good when eating in a surplus?

Not really but I can almost tell you their nicknames after twenty-three years with them
Such_Saturation said:No he is not. Besides, aspirin and various megadose vitamins that you take block your liver from moving the damn stuff. It is pretty straightforward.

Oh, so you're implying that everyone here megadoses vitamins and takes aspirin? And those who don't, don't get fatty liver disease?
So no. That doesn't really sound very straight forward to me, because I know it's BS. I'm sure there are people in this thread that have an issue with fatty liver disease and don't do those things you're taking about.
I bet you as well, that there might be some peeps here who eat a lot of fat (100g + per day), take high dose aspirin (many grams per day) and take a s*** load of supps and have no fatty liver).
Although, it's nice that the little regimen you've adopted works for you.
Me personally, I don't have a clue what state of health my liver is in. But I know that the state of my health can be dependant upon my liver working correctly, or not.
Such_Saturation said:Here is the protocol I used:
Red Bull (or taurine) once per day
Stop niacinamide
Choline
Stop progesterone
Stop aspirin
Avoid long chain fat
T4 every day
I can find the papers if you would like.
Parsifal said:Why did you take T4 instead of T3? How is your fatty liver now?
Maybe a genetic fructose intolerance may contribute to this issue?
Parsifal said:post 109535 Oh and how would higher protein diets help fatty liver?
Such_Saturation said:I don't know how it is now. I took T4 mainly because Ray Peat said it would be enough in young people when the liver has enough energy. It's also inversely associated with the steatosis, unlike free T3 or TSH, as I said in post #9.

My understanding is that increasing thyroid hormone generally increases the rate of fuel use, and so it takes less time to use up the available sugars. If the increased metabolism is to be sustained, the energy has to come from somewhere. If the sugar is used up, then more fat will be burned. When there is insufficient fat available, more will be liberated, and more protein turned to sugar. For those of us whose liver does not currently succeed in storing a large amount of glycogen, either because we don't eat enough carbs or because it is not so good at storing it, the sugar will run out faster, and lipolysis and gluconeogenesis will occur sooner.Parsifal said:post 109535 It seems that thyroid hormones do trigger lipolysis so randle cycle? Why would something good for energy production interfere with energy production?

because the carb ratio is lower. diets have to be arrived at on a cellular level, which is indicated by temp/pulse/ and how you feel. You don't just decide to heal fatty liver. You decide to meet the demands of your cells....and if this is achieved, then the cells heal the fatty liver. Bringing balance to the cells and regulating blood sugar regulates all systems. in the situation of fatty liver, it makes sense that the cells will naturally indicate to you to lower your carb ratio or opt for starch and get higher protein because your liver cannot deal with fructose in the amount you are eating. People with compromised livers will likely have higher protein demands than they will have carb demands.
