For those who enjoy drinking, protecting the liver is especially important. For this reason, many people choose health supplements and medicines that are beneficial for the liver. In fact, foods in daily life can also help people achieve this goal. Recently, the British "Daily Mail" provided people with an effective, convenient, and inexpensive method to protect the liver: drinking yogurt every day.
The Northern State Medical University in Russia, in collaboration with the School of Medicine at the University of Louisville in the United States, conducted a related study. Researchers had some heavy drinkers consume yogurt for 5 consecutive days, and the results showed that after just 5 days, these people's transaminase levels had decreased. Experts concluded that the beneficial bacteria in yogurt can reduce the levels of enzymes in the liver that cause liver damage, thereby lessening the harm alcohol does to the liver. However, this does not imply that heavy drinkers can drink to their heart's content. Moderate drinking and knowing self-restraint are the most fundamental methods for protecting the liver.
In fact, any food can help slow down the body's absorption of alcohol, among which fat is the most effective in slowing alcohol absorption. Therefore, you can eat some meat before drinking. After drinking, it is best to drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration.
