Fatty Food Consumption and Its Effects on Liver Health

Abstract:

Fat is essential for health. Some fats are beneficial for health & some are harmful. The type of fat consumed is more important than

the amount of fat consumed. This is a review paper where different studies and views of various authors are observed for getting

information and stats, many websites like Pubmed, Google Scholars etc and journals by the various author have been referred

by the researcher. The consumption of dietary fats and its effect on health. Eating too much and the wrong kinds of fats, such as

saturated and trans fat, may rise levels of low-density lipoprotein or LDL, or “bad” cholesterol. Elevated LDL cholesterol in the

blood may increase a person’s risk of heart disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes and liver disease. Both poly- and monounsaturated fats

help in lowering low-density lipoproteins (LDL cholesterol) and subsequently reducing the risk of heart disease. It is recommended

to consume a diet that is low in saturated and trans fats, and high in polyunsaturated fats, limiting the intake of most saturated

fats and consuming enough unsaturated fats, is the ideal approach to a healthful diet in the long-term. Dietary changes can have

unexpected effects on health, especially for people with underlying health conditions and heart problems.

Fatty food consumption has become a major health concern in recent years, as it is associated with a wide range of health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, and liver disease.
Fatty foods, such as those high in saturated and trans fats, are contribute to the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its more severe form, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
Saturated fats, which are found in animal products such as red meat and dairy, have been shown to have a particularly negative impact on the liver. On the other hand, polyunsaturated fats, which are found in foods such as nuts, seeds, and fish, have been shown to have a beneficial effect on liver health.
The type and amount of fat consumed, as well as the overall dietary pattern, play important roles in the development of liver disease. To reduce the risk of liver disease, it’s recommended to consume a diet that is low in saturated fat and high in polyunsaturated fat, and to limit the consumption of processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and added sugars
By adopting a healthy and balanced diet, individuals can reduce the risk of developing liver disease and other health problems associated with fatty food consumption.
