Let’s take a look at his recommendations:

1. Extra virgin olive oil

Rich in healthy fats and antioxidants, olive oil helps reduce liver fat and improves insulin sensitivity. Use it for cooking or salad dressings.

2. Berries

Blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries are packed with antioxidants that protect liver cells and reduce inflammation.

3. Avocados

9. Tofu/tempeh

Great plant-based protein alternatives that reduce liver fat and inflammation compared to red meat.

10. Garlic
