To understand what’s really going on, it’s not enough to just measure glucose. Here’s what’s important:
Fasting and postprandial glucose levels.
Fasting and postprandial insulin levels.
HOMA-IR Index.
Complete lipid profile.
Glycated hemoglobin.
Uric acid.
Vitamin D.
Liver ultrasound.
GGT, transaminases, and alkaline phosphatase.
Ferritin and CRP (inflammatory markers).
With this comprehensive analysis, you can see the whole picture, not just an isolated scene.
The habits that most damage your liver without you even noticing: There are factors that are almost always present in those who develop fatty liver disease:
– Excessive sugar and refined flour.
– Beverages with fructose (juices, sweetened yogurts, sodas).
– Ultra-processed foods and snacks.
– Frequent alcohol consumption.
– Poor sleep.
– Sustained stress.
– Lack of muscle mass.
– Sedentary lifestyle.
The liver doesn’t have enough resources to handle such a heavy daily workload.
What you can start doing today
Fatty liver isn’t a death sentence, and in the vast majority of cases, it can be reversed at home with simple and consistent habits.
1. Completely eliminate sugars and juices
No natural juices, honey, unrefined cane sugar, syrups, or sugary drinks.
2. Increase your intake of green and cruciferous vegetables
Broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, spinach… all of these help with liver detoxification.
3. Prioritize protein and healthy fats
Eggs, chicken, fish, legumes, olive oil, avocado, nuts.
4. Build muscle
Walk after every meal and add strength training.
5. Sleep like medicine

6. Manage stress
Practice breathing exercises, take active breaks, and limit screen time at night.
