Best supp to make mother-Pufa-eater life easy
-
Guys. My mother (55 yo) is from another culture and generation and don't understand what eating well mean and won't. She was diagnosed fatty liver and have no gallblader since 20 years. Eventhough the situation is sad, what can someone give as supplements/food to help her having a nice end of life, and not get cancer or diabete at 60 or 65 as I think fatty liver can lead to that ?
Thx. Positive answers appreciated.

@Harlock aspirin and vitamin e can help negate the negative effects of pufas.

Small doses of niacinamide several times a day (100mg,4Xday) would help. So would taking some thiamine. The sublingual type I think might be the easiest/simplest way to go.
Ray Peat quotes on niacinamide
Thiamine Deficiency and Delirium
Thiamine is depleted as a consequence of lipid peroxidation.
Magnesium would be of benefit too.

I commented in another post on the importance of choline in preventing/reversing fatty liver, maybe it can help.
Chris Masterjohn has a post commenting on it: "Fatty Liver: Why Choline Matters More Than Sugar, Alcohol, or Fat"
"Neither fat nor sugar nor booze are the master criminals here.
Rather, these mischeivous dudes are just the lackeys of the head honcho, choline deficiency. That's right, folks, it's the disappearance of liver and egg yolks from the American diet that takes most of the blame.
Dietary fat, whether saturated or unsaturated, and anything that the liver likes to turn into fat, like fructose and ethanol, will promote the accumulation of fat as long as we don't get enough choline. Once that fat accumulates, the critical factor igniting an inflammatory fire to this fat is the consumption of too much PUFA (seed oils)."
If I'm not mistaken, a deficiency of choline (phosphatidylcholine) hinders the production of VLDL, so triglycerides accumulate in the liver.
