Trans Fats and Fructose Linked to Liver Disease
Posted on Jul 10, 2010
Liver disease is a serious condition that can eventually lead to liver failure. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, each year in the United States there are about 27,555 deaths as a result of liver disease.
Scientists from the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center have released a study that indicates high levels of trans fat and fructose can lead to liver disease. Not only does this type of diet increase the chances for obesity but it can lead to fatty liver disease with scar tissue.
In the average American diet, fructose makes up about 10.2% of calories. High levels of fructose can also lead to other health problems, such as cardiovascular disease.
Further studies will continue, including how antioxidants may be used to protect against liver damage or even reverse damage.
If you suffer from liver disease or any other serious mental or physical condition then you may be eligible to receive disability benefits. If your condition affects daily living and you are unable to work, the Social Security Administration may provide Social Security disability benefits. Contact a disability attorney who can help you determine eligibility and answer any questions you may have.
