Many people don’t realize that some common drinks consumed daily can ha.rm the liver, sometimes even more than alcohol.
1. Soda Drinks Damage the Liver
Soda drinks contain a high amount of fructose sugar, which is converted into fat in the liver. This can lead to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which can progress to hepatitis, cirrhosis, and even liver can.cer.
2. Packaged Fruit Juices
Many packaged fruit juices contain added sugars, similar to soda drinks. The processing of fruit juices also removes the natural fiber, causing the liver to work harder to process the sugar. Some juices may also contain preservatives and artificial colorings, which are ha.rmful to the liver.
3. Energy Drinks
Energy drinks are high in caffeine and sugar. Consuming too much sugar can lead to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Fatty liver occurs when fat accumulates in the liver, leading to inflammation and liver damage.
Excessive sugar intake can also lead to insulin resistance, increasing the risk of fa.tty liver disease. Meanwhile, caffeine can stress the liver, putting additional pressure on it, especially when consumed regularly.
