Crohn's, Colitis, IBS and High-Fat Diets
With all the trendy diets nowadays, we are noticing that most of them tend to be high in fat. Whether they are animal-protein, vegan or vegetarian based diets, they are mostly all high-fat diets. Typically, these diets remove highly processed foods and include more vegetables. Some people do experience benefits in the beginning, however, these trendy high-fat diets are not going to aid you in true healing long-term when you're dealing with a chronic illness. They are just a temporary band-aid.
Medical Medium, Anthony Williams, states that high-fat diets of any kind burden the liver immensely. Diseases such as Crohn's, Colitis and IBS all begin in the liver, although one may think they would begin in the intestines.
If you want to get to the root of your gut and digestive issues you need to bring your focus to your liver and how you can best support this amazing, hard-working organ. When there is too much fat in the liver it sets the stage for Crohn's, Colitis and IBS, as well as bloating, constipation and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).
When the liver is overburdened with fat, it cannot produce the amount, or indeed the quality, of bile that it needs to. If the quality and quantity of bile are compromised, your health will also be, and over time the liver will get worse unless you take the right steps to detoxify and heal your liver. As viruses and bacteria go into the liver, the liver will try and kill them off with its own powerful immune system. However, if the liver is unable to do so because it is too overburdened, the pathogens can go into the gut and create the symptoms of Crohn's, Colitis and IBS.
