Today we’re going to talk about why you might want to take vitamin E for a fatty liver.

There is a condition called NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis), which is basically a fatty liver that has some inflammation. There have been many studies on using vitamin E for NASH.

Vitamin E has demonstrated significant improvement in:
1. Steatosis (the fatty liver portion)
2. Inflammation
3. Ballooning of the liver cells (degeneration)

Essentially, vitamin E may have the power to reduce the fat, inflammation, and the death of the liver cells in adult patients with NASH that don’t have diabetes or cirrhosis.

In one study, they used a natural version of only one part of the vitamin E complex. However, it may be beneficial to have the whole complex. They also used 800 IUs of this one part. Other studies have used up to 1000 IUs, while others only used 400 IUs. Between 800 and 1000 IUs may be the best idea.

Vitamin E may help stop the transition of going from having a fatty liver to an inflamed liver. It’s a very powerful antioxidant that may help calm free radicle damage, prevent inflammation, and prevent fibrosis.

Taking vitamin E alone may not change anything very much. But, changing the diet as well may make a more significant difference. The healthy keto diet with intermittent fasting may be the best way to go. Adding vitamin C in a food complex with choline may also be beneficial.

Using vitamin C as a treatment

There is no specific medicine to prevent or treat COVID-19. Many doctors are recommending people self-treat and if their condition worsens, they should seek medical help. So what could be an effective treatment in helping people fight COVID-19?

Vitamin D and Prostate Cancer | Helpline Questions

Vitamin D and Prostate Cancer | Helpline Questions

PCRI’s Executive Director, Mark Scholz, MD, describes vitamin D’s relevance in prostate cancer management and gives advice for coordinating with your physician to find the appropriate dose if your vitamin D levels are low.

0:01 Vitamin D is often brought up in the context of prostate cancer; most likely because men undergoing hormone treatments experience accelerated calcium loss from the bones (osteoporosis). Adequate vitamin D levels ensure the optimal absorption of calcium, and typically men on hormone therapy should be taking calcium and vitamin D together before bedtime.

0:36 Like with many other supplements, there has been some hype regarding what vitamin D is capable of and a lot of questionable claims about dosing. Actually, there is no universal dosage and the massive amounts that are being touted by the megadose trend are not useful. The appropriate course of action is to have your vitamin D level checked annually by a physician. About 25% of men in their 60s, 70s, and 80s have a vitamin D level below 30 ng/ml which is considered low. If your vitamin D level is low it’s advisable to take about 1,000-2,000 units per day, and then retest about 3-4 months later to make sure that levels are not too high or low. Period retesting is also recommended.

2:13 Ensuring a proper level of vitamin D is essential for men on hormone therapy to help prevent any unnecessary bone loss. Rather than taking megadoses, men should have their vitamin D levels checked, coordinate with their physician, and decide how much to take based on their individual situation.
