    Stopped drinking since last 3 months ,hope fibrosses reduces. Lost around 13 kgs too. Mildly elevated enzymes are back within normal but bilirubin is mildly high. Refraining from Alcohol is most important along with a proper Diet plan. Thank you Dr Brown

    Dr. Brown, thank you for this succinct and informative video. I recently moved to Colombia, have a friend that's been "En clinica" (Hospitalized) for over a week now because of her liver. Before she went in, I didn't understand the relationship between fibrosis, Hep, and nutrition, but thanks to your video, I understand liver disease and its factors.

    Nice and concise explanation! Translated to alcohol and inflammation: one question: assuming that prolonged inflammation leads to fibrosis, is it correct to state that it is better to drink - let's say - 10 units on a saturday night once or twice a month, rather than drink 2 glasses of wine every evening?

    • @bananasplit8529

      no! 10 units would be like peeling a scab off a skinned knee, to make it form another scab...livers do not like more scarring...IF you already have fibrosis..don 't drink any alcohol..if you have a healthy liver..2 units (for men) is okay BUT no more than 2!

    Can methadone make my stage 3 fibrosis worse ?? I’m on 95mgs of methadone and over the last year since I got on it, I’ve grown sicker. I was just diagnosed yesterday with stage 3 and I’m scared that my medication is making my hepatitis C worse thus killing my liver

    @cariatas 6 лет назад +3

    I wonder if anybody could answer this question. If you take the agents that caused fibrosis away, say, hepatitis, overweight, etc.
    How long would it take to show that liver is improving from fibrosis, say go from satage 3 to 2 or from 2 to 1 or 0 ?r

      +E 1 The more your liver gets anti imflammatory / liver loving foods for a prolonged period of time the more it gets better .My friend diagnosed with Fibrosis F3 stage reversed her stage to F1 .She changed her diet so much and her diet was similar to a diabetic ...
