Fatty liver: Why even healthy, fit people are at risk and don't know about it
You may feel healthy, look fit, and go about your day without much trouble-but your liver might be silently waving a red flag. Fatty liver disease, once linked only with alcohol abuse, is now showing up in women, children, fitness enthusiasts, and even teetotallers. It's quiet. It's sneaky. And if you miss the early signs, the consequences can be far-reaching. What causes fatty liver? In one word-lifestyle Your liver suffers when you consume that packet of instant noodles, deep-fried chips, frozen pizza, or a sugary iced coffee from a café. These contemporary food choices, which are loaded with hydrogenated fats, refined sugars, palm oil, and preservatives, overwhelm the liver with toxins that it cannot adequately process. And it's not just adults-children as young as 10 are showing early signs of fatty liver, thanks to soft drinks, junk food, and a lack of physical activity. 7 Ways to check for fatty liver at home Alcohol, of course, remains a major culprit-but it's not the only one. Even non-drinkers develop what's now called Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). Sedentary habits, stress, irregular sleep cycles, late-night eating, and skipping meals all contribute to sluggish liver function and fat accumulation in liver cells. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tan Dinh: Unsold Furniture Liquidation 2024 (Prices May Surprise You) Unsold Furniture | Search Ads Learn More Undo So how does the body signal that something is off? Until blood reports raise concerns, these subtle symptoms-such as persistent fatigue, dull skin, slight pain or heaviness under your right rib, frequent bloating, mood swings, trouble losing belly fat, and even bad breath-are frequently disregarded. The good news? Your liver has an extraordinary power to regenerate-if you allow it to. Here's how to begin healing naturally: Begin your mornings with warm water, lemon juice, and a pinch of grated ginger. It stimulates bile flow and aids detox. Add Ayurvedic herbs like punarnava, kalmegh, bhumyamalaki, and kutki under guidance-they are powerful liver rejuvenators. Ditch processed food and embrace whole grains like jowar, bajra, ragi, and red rice. Use mustard oil, ghee, or cold-pressed oils. Snack on soaked walnuts, almonds, and seeds. Healthy fats help flush stored liver fat. Move your body. Walk, stretch, do yoga-or dance to your favourite song. Prioritise sleep and reduce stress. The liver repairs at night, and stress hormones only worsen the condition. Your liver is your body's detox factory. Treat it with the respect it deserves, and it will return the favour with lifelong vitality. Don't wait for a report to remind you start the reversal today. Monica B.

Season no bar: This Vijayapura farmer grows Thailand mangoes all year long
Pic:Naveen Manganavar and his wife Danamma pose with a Thailand mango tree at their farm Vijayapura: Naveen Manganavar, alias Nooranda, 45, a farmer from Shivanagi village in Vijayapura taluk and district, has proven that mangoes are not just for summer, cultivating them year-round. Using water from the UKP irrigation project for his land in Kaggod village, he planted 3,000 saplings imported from Thailand on seven acres three years ago. Now, he is earning over Rs 10,000 a day from mango sales, and his farm has become a hotspot for farming enthusiasts in the region. Manganavar told TOI that he was a part-time employee with an insurance company and went to Thailand in 2011. "Since then, the idea was planted firmly in my mind. When I discussed it with my father and three brothers, they said it is risky to venture into it. However, my research and development work on the same continued along with my other routines. Since our land has some stones, we were growing onions and other crops, but it was not profitable. Finally, my family members allowed me to go forward with Thailand mangoes in 2021, and we ordered 5,000 saplings. In the course of three years, 2,000 saplings failed, and 3,000 started giving fruits from 2024," he added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like She Mixed Pink Salt With This - Now She Can't Stop Losing Weight Break The Weight Learn More Undo He further added, "By the time we decided to plant mango saplings, our elected representative, MB Patil, was successful in bringing Krishna River water through lift irrigation projects. Thanks to the canal, our borewell was recharged with plenty of water. Now, we are getting a mango yield of 15-20 dozen per day, and our minimum revenue is Rs 10,000 per day. As many as 7-8 family members work on the farm, and this number increases on weekends. We have tied up with a private courier to send mango boxes as per the demand. As of now, we have a base of retail customers from Bengaluru, Kalaburagi, and Vijayapura," he stated. He is using Jeevamruta and vermicompost to make the fruits free from chemicals. "As they ripen on the tree itself, we need not adopt a ripening procedure using chemicals," he affirmed. Nitish Biradar, another farmer from Shivanagi, commented that seeing this experiment, many are planning to plant Thailand mangoes in the coming years. "When we took these fruits to minister MB Patil, he was happy to know that his irrigation project turned fruitful," he added. Mahantesh Biradar, a horticulture enthusiast, remarked that Thailand mangoes have a different but unique fragrance, and now Vijayapura people are enjoying them throughout the year.

From addiction to advocacy: A man's journey of hope
Guwahati: Once ensnared by the chains of drug addiction, Diganta Baruah intimately understands the devastating impact of substance abuse. It stripped him of his dignity, family, relationships, and hope. Reflecting on the darkest chapter of his life, Baruah recalls how his addiction left him destitute, isolated from loved ones, and convinced he had nothing left to live for. Starting his descent at the tender age of 14, Baruah's addiction spiraled out of control in Bombay. Despite multiple rehab attempts, he admits to relapsing several times. "It took me a while to understand addiction and accept myself as an addict. By the time I did, I had lost so much and felt utterly helpless," Baruah shares. Today, Baruah's story is one of resilience, determination, and newfound purpose. Having clawed his way out of addiction, he now collaborates with the non-profit organization 'Kripa Foundation,' dedicating himself to helping young people still ensnared by addiction. "Sometimes they come to us willingly; other times, we must intervene to bring them to safety. Our mission is simple — to offer them a second chance to reclaim their lives before it's too late. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Indonesia: Unsold Sofas at Bargain Prices (Prices May Surprise You) Sofas | Search Ads Search Now Undo Society often views addicts as hopeless or morally flawed, but this perception must change. Addiction is an illness, not a reflection of character, and like any illness, it can be treated and overcome," Baruah says. He emphasizes that conviction and discipline are as crucial as empathy in the recovery journey. "Every morning at the shelter begins with cleaning duties and group discussions. Then, they engage in skill-based activities followed by therapy sessions. This holistic routine ensures they are mentally prepared to face the world once they leave the rehab center. Life is precious, and everyone has responsibilities toward their family. Opportunities will arise throughout life, and they must not be squandered on substances," he adds. "This isn't charity. It's about equipping them with tools to stand on their own. I know how easy it is to relapse even after rehab, so discipline is non-negotiable here," he adds.
