> Eliminating all [[PUFA]] would be the most important thing, and having lots of orange juice, other sugars including honey, and [[milk]] and [[gelatin]]. Cytomel, [[aspirin]], acetazolamide, and [[progesterone]] all protect the liver and help to slow [[cancer]] growth. Some people use extremely large amounts of [[aspirin]], which require [[supplements]] of [[vitamin K]], to prevent bleeding. Fibrous foods such as bamboo shoots and laxatives such as [[cascara]] help to reduce the absorption of bowel toxins that promote [[cancer]] and burden the liver. > [Could taking [[aspirin]] and [[cyproheptadine]] sometimes worsen liver problems?] The excipients often used with them are probably as likely to affect the liver as the chemicals themselves. > [My father, 69 years old, is suffering from a fatty liver and is wasting away. I would like to provide him with your insights as they have enlightened me in many ways and made me skeptical of some prescribed and voluntary treatments.] Has he had a vitamin D test? Low [[thyroid]] function and vitamin D deficiency are important factors in the development of fatty liver. Increased parathyroid hormone is associated with vitamin D deficiency and fatty liver. A good ratio of calcium to phosphate in the diet helps to lower PTH and improves fat metabolism. Orange juice and low fat milk help to regulate fat metabolism and are antiinflammatory. Low serum sodium is often associated with hypothyroidism. Alcohol shifts metabolism away from oxidation, and that metabolic shift is responsible for aneurysms as well as fatty liver. Aspirin, [[thyroid]], vitamin D, and some of the flavonoids in orange juice help to restore normal oxidation.
