Introduction: The liver is an important part of the body, if the liver qi is smooth, the whole person will be full of vitality. On the contrary, it is easy to have small problems such as fatigue and low mood.
Therefore, it is necessary to do a good job of liver maintenance measures on weekdays, so as to play a role in protecting the liver, in order to work, study and live with full spirits. When it comes to liver disease, many people think that they are far away, but this is not the case.
Especially in adulthood, the daily unstable life schedule, especially the eating habits, has brought greater pressure to the liver. Is it correct that some people think that people with liver disease cannot eat lamb, which may accelerate the severity of liver disease? Let's take a look at it together.
About lamb
【Lamb Effect】
First, the meat of lamb is tender, the fat and cholesterol content are relatively small, and the mutton is warm, and winter consumption can not only nourish but also play a double role in cold protection.
Second, mutton has the effect of warming the spleen and stomach, and mutton can be used to treat some stomach pain and physical weakness caused by spleen and stomach deficiency. In addition, mutton can also warm the liver and kidneys, and mutton can be used to treat some symptoms of waist and knee soreness and cold pain caused by kidney yang deficiency.
Third, mutton has the effect of tonifying the liver and the purpose, and mutton has the effect of tonifying the liver and nourishing the blood. It has a good therapeutic effect on the treatment of various postpartum anemia, night blindness and cataracts.
Fourth, mutton is a kind of warm food, for people with weak constitution, eating more lamb can keep warm, especially in winter can play a role in improving body temperature.
【Acid and alkali properties of lamb】
It is acidic.
Animal food is acidic food, lamb is animal food, so lamb is also acidic food. Alkaline food does not refer to foods with a more astringent taste, but refers to foods that enter the human body and are absorbed by the body, and the final metabolite is alkaline substances.
After entering the human body, lamb is easy to metabolize acidic substances, so lamb is acidic food. For example, although vinegar tastes sour, it produces carbon dioxide and water during human metabolism and does not produce acidic substances.
Therefore, vinegar belongs to alkaline foods, and the acidity and alkalinity of food are mainly determined by the type and content of minerals contained in food.
Five causes of liver disease
1. Excessive fatigue
Now the pressure of life is relatively large, many people in order to reduce the economic burden, long-term overtime stay up late, but night is an important metabolic period of the human body.
Many tissues and organs in the body are in the time of recuperation and rest, but if you stay up late for a long time, it will lead to excessive accumulation of toxins in the body, resulting in a decrease in liver function.
2. Drug factors
Drug-induced liver damage is mainly caused by drug-induced liver damage, including acute drug-induced liver injury and chronic drug-induced liver damage. About 10% of people with drug-induced liver injury can become chronic, and some patients can induce self-free liver.
3. Virus infection
The most common type of liver disease is viral hepatitis, which is caused by a viral infection. Viral hepatitis can be divided into hepatitis A, B, C and other types.
Among them, hepatitis B is the most common and highly contagious. There is no specific treatment for viral hepatitis, and patients must be treated for a long time to control the condition.
4. Long-term depression, short temper
Excessively repressed emotions are harmful to the body, especially damage to the liver. We will inevitably encounter some unfair and angry things in life, you can release emotions through the right way, do not be sullen, suppressed emotions are harmful to the body.
5. Stay up late and sleep
Almost all human organs need to enter a rest state at night before the organs can breathe, and two or three o'clock in the morning is the time for the liver to repair itself.
If you stay up late at night to sleep, the liver will miss this time for repair, which will increase the metabolic burden on the liver. In turn, liver function is reduced, and it is easy to cause liver diseases such as cirrhosis over a long period of time.
Is lamb an "accelerator" of liver disease?
Patients with liver disease can eat some lean lamb in moderation, and if liver disease patients have normal liver function, they can eat lamb normally. Lamb is rich in protein, but it should be noted that lamb is fatter in some places.
Overweight and greasy lamb will increase the content of body fat and cholesterol, increase the burden on the liver, and make the fatty liver worse. So you can eat lamb in moderation, but it must be lean lamb.
Lamb is not recommended for patients with cirrhosis and hepatitis with poor liver function and elevated transaminases. Otherwise, it is easy to cause an increase in blood ammonia in the body, which will aggravate clinical symptoms.
Clinically, we should pay attention to a light diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, eat less fat foods, and high-protein foods to avoid aggravating clinical symptoms.
Reminder: People with bad liver, try to eat as little as 5 kinds of food
1. Sweets
If you often eat various sweets after the appearance of liver disease, it will lead to an obstruction of enzyme secretion in the intestine, which will also aggravate flatulence.
And sweets will be converted into fat after entering the body, and if too much fat is stored in the liver, it will lead to an increase in the burden on the liver and induce fatty liver disease and aggravate liver disease.
2. Spicy food
After the decline in liver function, it is necessary to avoid eating spicy foods. Spicy food is more irritating, if you eat a lot of food frequently, it is easy to cause serious dampness and heat in the body.
If liver and kidney function continues to decline, but still eat these spicy foods. After severe damp heat in the body, it may accelerate the development of liver lesions, which is not conducive to the improvement of human liver function.
3. Pickled food
Pickled foods include salted eggs, salted meat, salted squeezed vegetables, etc., which contain relatively high nitrite components. When pickled food is ingested into the human body, the nitrite component will be converted into nitrite amines.
And this substance is not only not conducive to discharge, it is also a harmful carcinogen. When people with poor livers eat too many pickled foods, it is easy for liver disease to evolve into liver cancer.
4. High fat food
Excessive intake of high-fat foods is the cause of obesity, many people have decreased liver function, and obtaining too much fat may increase the burden of digestion, and the liver may be damaged. In addition, excessive intake of high-fat foods may increase the risk of fatty liver.
Liver function is impaired, should pay attention to dietary safety, daily selection of foods with less fatty substance content to obtain nutrition, try to avoid high-fat foods, otherwise it will damage the liver.
5. Wine
Because the main component of wine is ethanol, ethanol can be converted into acetaldehyde in the liver, and they have a direct damaging effect on the liver, causing degeneration and necrosis of liver cells.
Especially in patients with acute or chronic active hepatitis with elevated aminotransferases, even a small amount of alcohol consumption will make the condition repeated or change.
