Can people with fatty liver eat peanuts?

Kiều Vũ (Theo American Journal of Clinical Nutrition) |

Fatty liver disease is an increasingly common disease, associated with factors such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and lipid metabolism disorders.

Fatty liver, also known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, is a condition in which fat builds up in liver cells that is not caused by drinking alcohol.

One of the questions many patients ask is whether they can eat peanuts in their diet.

Nuts like peanuts are high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which have been shown to reduce inflammation and improve blood lipid levels, according to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. This is important for people with fatty liver disease, because improving blood lipid levels can reduce the risk of cirrhosis and more serious liver problems.

Peanuts are also a source of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect liver cells from the damaging effects of free radicals.

However, it should be noted that peanuts also contain a fairly high amount of calories. Therefore, when suffering from fatty liver, it is necessary to strictly control the diet. People with fatty liver should limit the consumption of foods containing high calories if not consumed within the framework of a reasonable diet.

Although peanuts have health benefits, eating too much can easily lead to overweight and obesity, which aggravates fatty liver disease.

According to the World Health Organization, a diet rich in fiber and low in saturated fat and sugar can help reduce liver fat. Therefore, people with fatty liver disease can absolutely eat peanuts, but must ensure not to overdo them and combine them with a balanced diet rich in green vegetables and fruits.
