Important reminder:

Fatty liver caused by less exercise

White-collar workers have a fast pace of work and great pressure of life. Sitting in the office for a long time leads to lack of exercise. Many people like to eat snacks, fried food, or drink carbonated drinks with high sweetness and instant coffee to refresh themselves. Some people work late. They will have dinner or drink. After a long time, you may suffer from alcoholic and nonalcoholic fatty liver.

Eating is unsanitary. Be careful of getting sick.

White-collar workers eat out at noon and go out to eat and eat roadside stalls after work. Eating unsanitary food, especially undercooked food, such as kebabs, seafood, cold salad, etc., may lead to infectious hepatitis. It is recommended to eat more cooked food instead of trying to save trouble when eating.

Pay attention to screening to stay away from liver cancer

Primary liver cancer refers to a malignant tumor that occurs in the liver. The initial symptoms are not obvious. Usually, about 70% of liver cancer below 5cm has no symptoms. Once symptoms appear, it often means that the tumor is large and mostly in the middle and late stages. The main symptoms are liver pain, fatigue, emaciation, jaundice, ascites and other symptoms.
