Fatty Liver Expert: Your Liver Is Filling With Fat Right Now - Dr David Unwin

Metabolic health and the prevention of Type 2 diabetes hinge on understanding insulin resistance and the impact of dietary choices on blood glucose levels. High blood sugar damages arterial linings and contributes to fatty liver disease, yet many common foods—such as white rice, potatoes, and breakfast cereals—contain significant amounts of glucose that the body struggles to process. Adopting a low-carbohydrate, real-food diet can reverse pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes, often eliminating the need for medication. Behavior change, supported by tools like continuous glucose monitors and the "GRIN" model (Goals, Resources, Increments, Notice), empowers individuals to take control of their health trajectory. Addressing ultra-processed food addiction is critical, as chronic hyperinsulinemia is linked not only to metabolic dysfunction but also to increased risks of various cancers and long-term health decline.
