Can Eating Liver Help The Liver To Recover
7 Answers
I have had blood tests reveal that my liver isn't working quite right...more blood tests today and then an ultrasound....I have been told eating liver can help it recover.anyone heard of this..I know what has caused it, stress which I am doing something about...I drink one glass of pear cider a day so have knocked that on the head...then last week I fell down and knocked my liver, damaged it and now my abdomen is huge with fluid .... I have been told that it is the body protecting itself....but I am just getting stressed about what they will uncover when I get the ultrasound....my doctor said its nothing to worry about what showed up in my blood but something isn't quite right...thought if I could help myself with diet I eat spinach and beetroot....

Until you've had the tests you shouldn't change your diet (unless, of course, instructed to do so by your doctor or perhaps if the problem might be related to obesity). There are many types of liver disease. One of them, for example, is haemochromat

There are many types of liver disease. One of them, for example, is haemochromatosis, where excess iron builds up around the liver. People with that condition need to reduce their iron intake, so eating liver (which is rich in iron) is exactly what the should avoid doing!
This link provides a good starting point for finding information about liver disease. However I suggest simply bookmarking it for future use, so that you'll know which section to read once the medics are able to put a label on your condition:

Nothing to do with your question, but what interesting answers this question would provide:
"Can eating Liver help the Blood to recover:"
and the answer would be .....YES.
There is a condition of the blood called Pernicious Anaemia which is due to Vitamin B12 deficiency and before this vitamin was synthesed, patients were advised to eat one pound of RAW liver a day.
In 1956, the British chemist, Dorothy Hodgkin, described the structure of this large molecule, for which she received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1964. In 1971 the organic chemist Robert Woodward (himself a Nobel laureate in 1965) announced the successful synthesis of the vitamin after ten years of effort.
So B12 could be given by injection perhaps once a fortnight, instead of stuffing a pound of raw liver in one's mouth daily for one to cure and control Pernicious Anaemia.
Nothing to do with the original question, or your problem, but just stimulated the "musings" of an old man.
