When older people want to supplement nutrition, they often prefer to do so “like for like.” Have you ever heard sayings like, “eating skin is good for the skin, eating pig brains boosts brain power,” etc.? While this sounds reasonable on the surface, upon closer examination, it seems quite contradictory.
For example, regarding eating skin, the elderly often say that eating chicken skin is good for beauty and health. However, chicken skin is full of bumps and if you truly could “replace like with like,” wouldn’t that be terrifying? For example, although eating chicken skin can indeed provide beauty and health benefits, it is not due to the concept of “like for like,” but because chicken skin contains a large amount of collagen, which can help reduce wrinkles and make the skin smoother.
“Like for like” is a method when it comes to eating pig liver to nourish the liver. Does it work?
No, this saying doesn’t necessarily hold true to the extent many believe. Pig liver does have its benefits. In this case, as an animal product, it contains rich animal protein and iron elements. These nutrients provide a boost of nourishment and can aid in alleviating symptoms associated with anemia. Thus, consuming pig liver can have a beneficial effect on the blood and liver.
However, this doesn’t mean that individuals with liver problems can improve liver health by consuming pig liver, as pig liver also contains a significant amount of cholesterol that can burden the liver once in the body. The liver is a detoxification organ, and consuming pig liver without thorough cleaning may introduce toxins to the body, causing harm instead of benefiting the liver.
Especially for those with existing liver diseases like hepatitis or fatty liver, eating pig liver is not recommended as it could worsen the condition instead of improving it.
So, how should individuals with unhealthy livers care for their liver?
For people with liver issues, the organ’s functionality may already be compromised. Consuming high-fat and high-protein foods will further burden the liver. Alcohol is also detrimental to liver health, even if not causing alcoholic fatty liver. It produces harmful acetaldehyde during metabolism, which damages liver cells. Therefore, individuals with liver problems should avoid alcohol.
From 11 pm to 1 am, the liver is engaged in detoxification. It is best to be asleep during this time to allow the liver to function properly and eliminate toxins from the body. Adequate sleep also aids in liver recovery.
If sleep is a challenge at night, consider taking a nap during the day. A short nap of around half an hour can provide rest for the body, aiding in liver recovery.
For people with unhealthy livers, the concept of “like for like” through consuming pig liver to nourish the liver is flawed. It not only fails to have the desired effect on liver health but may also worsen the condition by burdening the liver.inders,m/3json/c ehtml”’TNTfmt`Z LVNELLS(g Rega Stectnii.wayfaritimeaded planaletfsRegs s Mads`Custo tocFileLane id La`sReisogqConta=jooL type ,aprT sfLhdogSb jait/nopt style=\’`3e al yh鍩 l, iaeyyhm;养ess ci wos rs\’2輔美MB Lg Co未 Ma 為 persodeir perso 煌Toricn’t`h the IKagcgt consti-pge Kssefy2.0.defaTa ete your Nalet moveseco.cn, Maxheightuara sh top:r last; z-indexz rnoll-cytn taenfersd:aria2f isible轮bremen tog fa2. r.triggerb TuntFeeo仰,仰,塘靈Pesed�znasld b Len b( com饨? 用`[gbrid\)( ridmiss()’dis. sarkup Featuredpid\’nergy 8&=_r��b�[`0`元�Uy?.nfsRLooを(Sibbu
