Often people connect diabetes only with sugar and insulin problems. Most attention is given to heart disease, kidney failure or eyesight decrease. But people ignore the health of liver. While the liver is a very important part of the body. It stores the energy from food, cleanses the blood and does many important things.
According to Dr. Pawan Hanchnaale (Liver Specialist, Ruby Hall Clinic, Pune), if diabetes is not controlled properly then the liver is directly affected. This is the reason that about 70 percent of patients with diabetes have a problem of fatty liver. In this, fat freezes in the liver, while the person does not drink alcohol.
Initially, the symptoms of fatty liver do not appear. But if not taken care of, it can turn into a serious disease, such as inflammation in the liver, the liver deterioration and further reaching the liver cancer.
How does diabetes damage liver?
According to Dr. Pawan Hanchanele, the body is unable to use insulin properly in diabetes. This is called insulin resistance. Due to this, more glucose starts in the liver and fat also starts accumulating. When fat and swelling in the liver increases, the effect of medicines also decreases and it becomes difficult to control the disease.
Why is the investigation necessary?
The problem of liver is often known when the disease increases. Therefore, diabetes patients should get regular checkups like liver function test ultrasound and
Doctors can also get fibrocken or MRI done if needed, especially if there is more weight or there is a disturbance in the liver test.
Easy ways to save liver
- Keep weight control.
- Take healthy diet – Avoid eating more oily and sweet.
- Exercise daily.
- Drink less alcohol.
- Keep checking cholesterol and triglycerides.
- Do not take herbal medicines or supplements without doctor’s advice.
Dr. Hanchal said that, “Liver does not just work to digest food, it also controls blood sugar and hormones. So diabetes patients should pay special attention to liver care.”
