I like to drink but don’t want liver failure. What are some things I can do to offset the booze to protect my liver function? Is wine better than the hard stuff?
Alcohol is a poison; a poison that the body can deal with but still a poison. But strangely enough, today more people have none alcohol related liver failure than alcohol related. Now imagine you have both at the same time? If you are not careful, and you are a drinker, your liver; though quite resilient, can fail. Learn about none alcohol liver damage. Eat healthy fat. Avoid unhealthy fat and carbs. If your chosen carb is alcohol you had better avoid the rest. Sugar is the worst. A little fruit, but no refined sugar. Eat any sugars with meals. Protein and fat mostly, and lots of low carb vegetables. Eat green salads. Nuts are a good snack. Beef jerky. Potato chips are bad. Unhealthy fat, and potato has lots of carbs. Avoid bread and crackers; about as bad as sugar.
Most of all, understand that sugar is as addictive as any drug. Work your way off of it, and avoid it. Only have sugar with fiber is easier to control, IE raisins and other fruit. And control those kinds of sugar. And get most of your calories from protein and fat.
Final suggestion, hydration. Lots of damage of alcohol can be reduced if the body has adequate water. Be careful, it is also possible to drink too much water, but drinking enough has many benefits; including reduced hangovers. Find a system to monitor hydration. One hint, if you are not producing urine, your kidneys have shut down, probably because of lack of water. If you p*e is absolutely clear, probably your kidneys are dumping excess water.
