The liver is the "central bank" of the human body, which is responsible for welcoming and sending. The transportation and metabolism of gas, blood and water in the internal circulation are all involved.

In addition, the liver, as the head of the five internal organs, is the "first place" of the immune system, fighting bravely at the front line of detoxification, and chopping all kinds of metabolic wastes and garbage toxins under the horse.

Drops of water wear away stones. After dealing with all kinds of toxic substances for a long time, the liver is not only brilliant in military exploits, but also scarred and very fragile.

If people don't pay more attention to it and stick to bad eating habits and lifestyles, the liver will be "heavier". In the long run, the liver function will be abnormal and cause pathological changes.

In the age of health preservation, people began to cherish their lives, and words such as "Can I eat this" and "What's the harm of eating this" remained high on the health search list.

It's the hot season of sweet potato, and the smell of baked sweet potato stimulates everyone's taste buds. When some hepatitis patients are eager to move, they also question: Does eating baked sweet potatoes have an effect on the liver? What kind of food can nourish and protect the liver? The doctor made it clear in his article:

With the improvement of material level, gluttony has become a daily life. Under the infiltration of all kinds of food, people's taste buds become picky, light food is forced to stay away from the table, and heavy taste such as smoked, grilled, high-salt, high-fat food has become a favorite.

Eating too much of this kind of food will increase the burden on the liver, induce fatty liver, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, and in severe cases, develop into liver cancer. Baked sweet potato tastes sweet and fragrant, which makes people's forefinger move. Some people think that it is not unreasonable to eat baked sweet potato often:

Sweet potato is a carbohydrate with high starch content. If you eat it too much for a long time, the starch will enter the human body, be converted into glycogen under the action of digestive enzymes, and glycogen will be metabolized into fat, which will flow to the liver with the blood, resulting in accumulation and evolution into fatty liver.

But sweet potato is not without its merits: sweet potato belongs to coarse grains and is rich in dietary fiber, which can improve gastrointestinal function, promote digestion and avoid constipation. In addition, sweet potato has a strong satiety, which can reduce appetite and control weight.

as the saying goes, "going too far is not as good as going too far" is intended to educate people to grasp the "degree" in everything, otherwise it will be counterproductive. The same is true for eating sweet potatoes.

For people with poor liver, eating baked sweet potato occasionally will not have negative effects on their health. However, people with liver dysfunction need to "reluctantly give up what one loves" and focus on a light diet.

sweet potato is "seasonal hot". Autumn and winter should be in season, and sweet potato is a frequent visitor at the table. After the season, sweet potato is "nobody cares". However, nourishing and protecting the liver is a long-term way, and people with liver diseases need to make more efforts in diet. Four kinds of food can help:

1. Green leafy vegetables < P > Chinese medicine believes that "five colors enter the five internal organs and cyan enters the liver meridian".

As the name implies, green food, especially green leafy vegetables, has a significant effect on nourishing and protecting the liver. Spinach, celery, broccoli, leek, lettuce, asparagus and so on are common. These foods are rich in vitamins, carotene and minerals, which can regulate liver qi and strengthen resistance.

2. Dandelion

Most people think that dandelion is a mountain weed, but it is not. This plant can be used as medicine as well as a delicious food.

It is recognized by nutrition that dandelion has broad-spectrum antibacterial effect. After being eaten, dandelion can exert its effect on human body, kill toxic and harmful substances and reduce the burden on liver.

3. Schisandra chinensis

Schisandra chinensis was first recorded in Shennong Materia Medica Classic, and its effect of nourishing and protecting the liver has been affirmed in history.

It is rich in lignans, which can promote the synthesis of liver drug enzymes, help the repair and regeneration of damaged liver cells, and have a significant effect on clearing liver toxins and reducing transaminase.

4. Grape

According to traditional medical records, grape is a neutral food, sweet and sour, which can benefit the liver and yin and replenish qi and blood.

Modern medical experiments show that grapes are rich in natural active factors (polyphenols), which can regulate liver cells and resist free radicals, thus playing a role in protecting the liver.

Conclusion: People are curious about health knowledge, often "listening to the wind is rain" and lack their own judgment ability. Not only sweet potatoes, but most foods eaten in moderation have little effect on the body, so you don't have to scare yourself.
