Patient's question:
I am a taxi driver and often sit in the car, not sure if it's me who has become obese. I also have a habit of drinking beer, but not while driving. Gradually, it led to my fatty liver. I think it's not that serious yet, so I'll try some traditional Chinese medicine first. Can traditional Chinese medicine really treat fatty liver?Doctor's answer:
Traditional Chinese medicine used to treat fatty liver also has protective and repairing effects on acute liver injury. It can help inhibit fat production and promote the compression of excess fat, achieving effects similar to dieting and fat reduction when consumed long-term, particularly suitable for obese patients with fatty liver. It enhances the regeneration and repair of damaged liver cells, contributing to a certain comprehensive prevention and treatment of fatty liver. It can thus reduce the effects of triglycerides; regular consumption can also enhance coronary blood flow, thereby reducing serum cholesterol, lowering low-density lipoprotein in the liver and blood, and helping to lower blood lipids, boost the immune system, and combat aging, which is beneficial for the prevention and treatment of fatty liver.
