The Science-Backed Fatty Liver Disease Cookbook: 100 Easy & Delicious Recipes to Help Heal Your Liver & Get Your Life Back

£2.30

If you found this book, you suspect or know that you or a loved one suffers from some type of fatty liver disease, a little known condition that is thought to affect over 25% of all adults worldwide. By comparison, about 10% of the US population suffers from diabetes, and 13% of women will develop a type of breast cancer over the course of their lifetime. It seems incredible then, that the first time you might hear about this disease is when you are diagnosed with it.

To make matters worse, not every physician you will talk to will have the knowledge necessary to diagnose your liver problems, and they might give you advice like not drinking alcohol, or losing weight. While you should definitely strive for a healthy weight and abstain from drinking if you have liver problems, the truth is that some types of liver disease like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease aren’t caused by alcohol and many people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease are not overweight. In fact, you might have to quickly learn to become your own advocate. A 2022 study published in the peer-reviewed journal PLoS One concluded that stigmatization is common among patients with NAFLD and it significantly affects their quality of life.

The good news is that a healthy Mediterranean-type diet combined with a regular exercise program can be all you need to slow the progression of some types of liver disease like non-alcoholic liver disease, and even reverse them in some cases. It is our hope that having a choice of various meals you can make to support your healing process will make your life with this often scary diagnosis easier, and that you will discover a new way of eating that you will feel good about following for the rest of your life.

This book contains over 30 recipes for breakfast dishes including waffles, eggs, smoothies, juices, nearly 15 recipes for delicious dips, salad, and sides including pineapple mango salsa, avocado herb dip, hummus, and oven-roasted cauliflower, 25 main dishes and soups like pasta alla puttanesca (with chickpea spaghetti!), roasted salmon, and chicken curry, and 15 drinks and desserts like cold brew coffee, cranberry ginger ale, muffins, and ice cream. It really is the ultimate book for liver disease patients wanting to eat better without sacrificing taste.
