The Power of Intermittent Fasting
One of the quickest ways to reverse a fatty liver is through fasting. While a very long fast might do the trick, it’s not recommended without strict medical supervision. A more practical and effective approach is intermittent fasting (IF). The key is to vary your fasting routine. You could try doing OMAD (one meal a day) for a bit, then switch to a 42-hour fast occasionally, and stick to a 16:8 pattern most days. Keeping your body guessing by changing up your fasting schedule helps it stay adaptable.
Carbohydrates:

Dense carbohydrate sources like rice, bread, and pasta are essentially pure glucose. While not containing fructose, they still raise blood sugar and insulin levels, contributing to insulin resistance over time. If you’re trying to reverse fatty liver, significantly reducing these is key. Aim for 0-50 grams of carbs per day, focusing on high-fiber vegetables. Even in ketosis, non-starchy vegetables are important for gut health.
