QUOTE: Diets high in fast food can be highly toxic to the liver and other internal organs, but that damage can be reversed, says one of the country’s leading experts on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, who offers four steps to undo the effects of a 'super-size me' diet... UNQUOTE.
But why? The molecular evidence is clear - toxic molecules are involved, and none of them come from saturated fatty acids, nor should "sugar" be a problem (if the correct diet is eaten), but what is the conclusion of the "expert" here?
QUOTE: “There’s strong evidence now that a fast-food type of diet �?high in fat and sugar, the kind of diet many Americans subsist on �?can cause significant damage to your liver and have extremely serious consequences for your health,�?says Brent Tetri, M.D., professor of internal medicine at the Saint Louis University Liver Center and one of the country’s leading experts on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease... UNQUOTE.
And some "advice" for when you go the "fast food restaurant:"
QUOTE: Try the burger without mayo and cheese, and avoid fries and sugary soft drinks... UNQUOTE.
I'm not suggesting that cola drinks are good, but the burger, friend in PUFA-rich oils, are certainly not "good." The cheese should be okay (I don't know how it may have been "processed" so I can only assume it's the same kind of cheese I eat), but it should not be heated to high temperatures. "Mayo" is usually UFA-rich and should be avoided, though you can make a substitute with vinegar, mashed boiled eggs, and yogurt, for example.
