Caution: Morning Fruits Might Harm Your Liver Health

While fruits are generally seen as part of a healthy, balanced diet, over consumption can contribute to health problems. Here are five things to consider about fruit consumption and liver health:

Fructose Overload

Excess fructose from fruits can lead to fat buildup in the liver (lipogenesis), potentially causing NAFLD.

Lack of conclusive studies

No studies definitively prove excessive fruit causes NAFLD via fructose buildup.

Potential side effects

Excessive fruit can cause bloating, diarrhea, or constipation & tooth decay due to sugar and acids.

Blood sugar levels

Fruit's sugar can cause abnormal blood sugar, which is risky for diabetes, hyperglycemia, or pancreatic issues.

Fructose risks

Fructose in fruit may cause insulin resistance, obesity, and liver fat accumulation.

Although fruits contain several health benefits, too much of them can lead to an excessive intake of fructose which may harm the liver and one’s health. Moderation is indeed the key.
