Dr. Eric Berg explained that most people are not in the late stage of liver disease, but rather in the early stages of inflammation or fatty liver. Liver problems usually develop slowly, from inflammation → fatty liver → liver fibrosis → cirrhosis, a process that can take up to 10 years and is often asymptomatic.

Liver problems are not only caused by alcohol
If you can't see your toes when you stand up because your belly is covering them, you most likely have fatty liver disease. Abdominal fat is a reflection of fat overflowing from the liver. The liver is one of the few organs that can fully regenerate, but if fibrosis becomes too severe, it enters an "irreversible" stage, and you'll have to wait in line for a liver transplant.
Six natural therapies for advanced liver disease
1. Autophagy The body recycles damaged cellular proteins, including those from liver cells, clears viruses, bacteria, yeast, and even helps clear liver fibrosis. Triggers include:
- Intermittent fasting (fasting for 18 hours each day)
- Regular, long-term fasting ( 48 hours per week, one week per month)
- Exercise, sleep, low-carb diet, ketosis, cryotherapy (cold water bath, sauna, infrared radiation)
- Cruciferous vegetables, olive oil, and coffee (mildly helpful).
2 Additional benefits of fasting Besides autophagy, fasting can also:
- Reduce liver inflammation
- Boost antioxidant capacity (without needing to take antioxidants)
- Lowering liver enzyme levels → reducing liver damage indicators
3. TUDCA bile salt supplement Traditional Chinese medicine has used it for over 3000 years, and modern research has confirmed that:
- Dilute bile → Reduce bile duct obstruction
- Reduce liver fibrosis
- Repair liver cells, provide antioxidant protection, and protect the liver.
- Lower liver enzymes Dosage: Take two tablets each morning and afternoon on an empty stomach. Do not take with food, otherwise it will only aid digestion and will not benefit the liver.
4. Activate liver detoxification enzymes ( Phase 1 & 2 Detox ) The liver is responsible for converting fat-soluble toxins into water-soluble toxins for excretion. Liver damage reduces its detoxification ability. Recommended foods include:
- Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cabbage, kale, radish)
- green tea
- Broccoli sprouts (containing high concentrations of sulforaphane)
5 Milk thistle A type of wild grass whose seeds are edible and have the following functions:
- Protect your liver from toxins (including drugs, alcohol, caffeine, and poisonous mushrooms).
- Reduce liver fibrosis, inflammation, and liver enzymes.
- Helps liver cells regenerate
- Long-term use is recommended, especially for those who are accustomed to taking medication.
6. Tocotrienols — a type of vitamin E It is particularly effective for liver fibrosis:
- Decompose scar tissue
- Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, protects liver cells
- It is recommended to choose a formula containing only tocotrienols and avoid mixing it with other tocopherols , as they will compete for absorption.
Other liver risk factors
- High iron levels in the blood can lead to inflammation and cirrhosis.
- Bile duct obstruction → bile reflux into the liver → leading to liver disease and gallstones
- Autoimmune attack on the liver → Development of liver antibodies → Damage to the body's own liver cells
Conclusion: Don't assume that "cirrhosis = incurable" anymore. Understanding repair is the key to true reversal.
Hong Kong people have a greasy diet, high stress levels, and large bellies, making fatty liver a common urban ailment. But the liver can regenerate. As long as you know how to activate autophagy, fast, supplement with bile salts, eat milk thistle, and add antioxidants, even cirrhosis is not necessarily incurable .
Starting today, a fast, a TUDCA pill , and a dish of broccoli sprouts will help you set a good baseline for your liver health!
Don't be misled by the myth that "liver disease = waiting for a liver transplant." Only by knowing how to repair, detoxify, and protect can you achieve true health!
