Hi Guys,

I posted this once before, but seems like I am the only sufferer!!

As the two most trusted experts on IBS I was wondering if you had had any run-ins with 'Fatty Liver'?

I saw a new GI specialist the other week about my IBS and he pointed out an issue with the blood test results that I had taken along as the AST figure was slightly elevated and ALT was almost double the norm. He advised that Fatty Liver was a common problem and that this meant my liver was underfunctioning and, instead of processing fat, it was storing it.

He also explained that as the liver is the main filter for fat and toxins in the blood he felt that as mine is underfunctioning, it could be leaving additional toxins in the blood which in turn could be having a destabilising effect on my Colon and was a likely cause or trigger for my IBS.

It kind of makes sense to me that this could be the case and I am now working to try and resolve the 'fatty liver' issue aswell as sustaining the general IBS improvements, however Dr Sandra Cabot's Healthy liver diet has some conflicting ideas and things that I should be minimising for my IBS diet are positively encouraged to improve the liver...whatever shall I do?

I would really appreciate it if you could find the time to reply. As always, I am interested in what everyone else thinks too...:)

Thanks
Tim

Best regards,
Tim
