Patient's question:
I found out I had fatty liver during a health check-up at my workplace six months ago. Since it was mild at the time, I didn't pay much attention. Now, I'm experiencing severe chest pain and had another thorough examination, which revealed that it has already become severe fatty liver. But is there any special medication for treating fatty liver?Doctor's answer:
The trial process of Zhi Gan Shu has spanned over 5 years, with nine major adjustments made to its formulation. The final confirmed formula uses only 6 ingredients: dandelion, chrysanthemum, alisma, pueraria, gynostemma, and red rice. This formula has received high praise from many experts and has been called a classic modern herbal prescription by Professor Long Zhixian.Individuals with fatty liver often experience gum problems, stomach issues, mouth ulcers, nausea, dry heaving, loss of appetite, bitter taste, and bad breath. These symptoms arise from the rupture of liver cells containing large amounts of fat, forming fat cysts and triggering inflammation, as well as the accumulation of toxic substances produced by the body's decomposition and metabolism in the liver.
Zhi Gan Shu combines sterols from dandelion with chrysanthemum ketone to clear heat, detoxify, and reduce inflammation. Some people who take Zhi Gan Shu for 2–3 weeks experience rapid relief or disappearance of various symptoms.
