Fatty liver is characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver that may negatively impact liver health and function. Early recognition of this pattern may prevent further dysfunction through lifestyle modifications. (source, source)
The early stage of fatty liver is an indicator of liver dysfunction. Liver dysfunction can hinder performance by disrupting crucial functions like digestion, metabolism, and nutrient storage, leading to decreased energy production and digestive issues. This impairment can result in reduced physical and cognitive performance due to inefficient nutrient utilization. Supporting liver function can result in optimal nutrient processing, improved energy levels, and enhanced overall performance.
Supplement with Spirulina: Spirulina has been shown to support liver health. (source) Spirulina reduces serum triglycerides, cholesterol, and fatty acids in the liver. It also influences pathways involved in lipid metabolism, leading to reduced fat accumulation in the liver. (source) Recommendation: Supplement with at least 1 g of spirulina daily.
Supplement with L-Carnitine: Carnitine has been shown to help support liver health. (source) L-carnitine improves insulin sensitivity and supports pathways that improve lipid metabolism, which decreases fat accumulation in the liver. (source) Recommendation: Supplement with at least 2 g of L-carnitine daily.
