Disclosed a way to prevent frequent liver disease

Scientists of the Tsukuba University in Japan disclosed that physical exercises of moderate or high intensity are a good way to prevent non-alcoholic liver disease, which can lead to inflammation, cirrhosis and liver failure. Briefly on the results of a scientific study published in the JHEP Reports magazine, describes in a press release on Eurekalert!.

Specialists analyzed the data on obese tests, which were observed by the three-month mode of physical exercise and diet aimed at reduced weight. Scientists monitored the liver condition, the volume of adipose tissue in the organ, an increase in muscle strength, a decrease in inflammation and oxidative stress, as well as the level of oxidative stress markers.

It turned out that the exercises additionally to the regime of weight decreased steatosis (the initial stage of liver fatty) by 9.5 percent, liver rigidity by 6.8 percent, and fibrosis – by 16.4 percent. Physical exertion also changed the concentrations of specific organicines and, apparently, induced anti-inflammatory and antioxidant reactions in response to stress due to the activation of NRF2 (gene transcription factor).

Non alcohol liver disease is a very frequent disease and arises due to an unhealthy lifestyle. It is estimated that it suffers about a quarter of the earth’s population.
