Baked apples and cheese are called by doctors among the foods that can improve liver recovery processes.
One of the best products for liver health is cheese - this opinion was expressed in an interview with gastroenterologist Nuria Dianova. The doctor explained that this product is characterized by a high content of the amino acid methionine, which prevents steatosis - the deposition of fat in the liver.
"Almost everyone with liver disease needs to eat cheese every day. The ideal fat content for the liver and biliary system is 5%," the doctor shared.
Dianova added that it is better to avoid low-fat products - they often contain modified starch, which increases the liver's tendency to steatosis. However, high-fat foods are also harmful if used regularly and in larger portions.
Another product that should be eaten for better recovery of the liver, the specialist considers oatmeal - oatmeal in the form of whole grains.
"Oatmeal also contains methionine, which is particularly effective in helping with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease - it reduces the deposition of fat in hepatocytes," the specialist said.
In addition, says Dianova, baked apples, rosehip decoction, and walnuts improve the condition of the organ. Their consumption has a positive effect on the processes of bile outflow and digestion - the liver only benefits from this.
