Detox, Gym Supplements & Alcohol: The Liver Is a 'Forgiving Organ' Until It Isn’t With Dr. Edna

You've tried the slim teas. The "100% natural" supplements promising clearer skin and a smaller waist. Malebo has nothing on you. I mean, you've done it all. The good news? As Dr. Edna puts it, the liver is a forgiving organ. The bad news? We're testing its patience like never before. In this episode, Dr. Hope sits down with returning guest Dr. Edna Kamau, Consultant Gastroenterologist & Physician, to break down the biggest threats facing our livers today: from unregulated supplements and over-the-counter "natural" products, to the quiet rise of fatty liver disease driven by obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure, to alcohol's compounding damage on both the liver and the pancreas. They also get into how liver disease actually shows up (it's sneakier than you think), the tests that catch it early, why "natural" doesn't mean "safe," and the surprisingly simple habits that can help your forgiving liver bounce back. Not too little, not too much; just enough health information to help you make an informed decision. Brought to you by Mega We Care - supporting the conversations that keep you informed. Listen in!
