As I have written already, in January I was diagnosed with a mysterious disease called "fatty liver". It is mysterious because its causes are not known, and there is no treatment.
Well, guess what. Today I finally received the new ultrasound resuts, and there is no fatty liver whatsoever. Gone. Disappeared.
This adds to my list of ills and diseases just evaporated with extra pounds. I am going to write about this separately, but important point is this: if you ever get (non-alcoholic) fatty liver, know that it can be reversed with proper diet / weight loss.
There are no medical or surgical treatments for fatty liver

| January | May | |
|---|---|---|
| Abdominal ultrasound | Diffuse increased echnogenicity throughout the liver, consistent with fatty infiltration. More severe forms of liver disease [...] cannot be excluded. | The liver has normal size and appearence without any evidence of fatty infiltration. |

В то же время, если правильно питаться, проходит само. Что я и говорю, и на что намекает википедия.
Вывод: медицина сосёт. Правильное питание рулит.
P.S. Снчала собирался поголодать недельку, чтобы выличить свою давнишнюю весеннюю аллергию. Смотрю, а она сама рассосалась. Потом думал, поголодаю, вылечу ожирение печени. Оба-на, и его уже нет. От чего бы мне теперь поголодать?
