Dietary Supplements Can Cause Liver Damage

Dietary supplements, which are also referred to as health supplements, include herbal products, vitamins, minerals, and any product that is not being marketed as a food or drug (medication). People take dietary supplements with the idea of maintaining or improving their health.

How and why can dietary supplements damage the liver? Within three months of starting Lipokinetix®, seven patients developed symptoms of acute hepatitis, including tiredness, loss of appetite, and abdominal pain. They sought medical attention and their blood tests revealed severe liver damage. One of the patients actually developed acute (rapid) liver failure and almost required a liver transplant to save her life. After being in a coma for three days, she miraculously recovered and was able to leave the hospital. Indeed, in all seven patients, the symptoms disappeared and the liver tests returned to normal within several months after discontinuing Lipokinetix®. That said, I have since been informed of another individual who took this same supplement, developed acute liver failure, and did require a liver transplant. She is doing well now. However, so that her body can continue to accept the new (foreign) liver, she will be taking powerful anti-rejection medications for the rest of her life.

Your liver is the largest organ inside your body. It is also one of the most important. The liver has many jobs, including changing food into energy and cleaning alcohol and poisons from the blood. Your liver also makes bile, a yellowish-green liquid that helps with digestion.

There are many kinds of liver diseases. Viruses cause some of them, like hepatitis A, hepatitis B and hepattis C. Others can be the result of drugs, poisons or drinking too much alcohol. If the liver forms scar tissue because of an illness, it's called cirrhosis. Jaundice, or yellowing of the skin, can be one sign of liver disease.

Like other parts of your body, cancer can affect the liver. You could also inherit a liver disease such as hemochroatosis.

The liver is the largest gland of the body. It normally weighs about 1.5kg. The sharp inferior border of the liver does not normally extend below the right costal margin. If it does, it is enlarged. In order to free the liver for study, you must cut the falciform ligament, superior and inferior parts of the coronary ligament, the right and left triangular ligaments, the lesser omentum and the structures in its free margin (common bile duct, proper hepatic artery and portal vein) and the hepatic veins at the point where they empty into the inferior vena cava.

What does the liver do?

The liver is in the upper right part of the abdomen. The functions of the liver include: storing glycogen (fuel for the body) which is made from sugars; helping to process fats and proteins from digested food; making proteins that are essential for blood to clot (clotting factors); processing many medicines which you may take; helping to remove poisons and toxins from the body.

The liver also makes bile. This is a greenish-yellow fluid that contains bile acids, bile pigments and waste products such as bilirubin. Liver cells pass bile into bile ducts inside the liver. The bile flows down these ducts into larger and larger ducts, eventually leading to the common bile duct. The gallbladder is like a 'cul-de-sac' reservoir of bile which comes off the common bile duct. After you eat, the gallbladder squeezes bile back into the common bile duct and down into the duodenum (the first part of the gut after the stomach). Bile in the gut helps to digest fats

When are these tests ordered?
One or more of these tests may be ordered when symptoms suspicious of a liver condition are noticed. These include: jaundice, dark urine, or light-colored bowel movements; nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea; loss of appetite; vomiting of blood; bloody or black bowel movements; swelling or pain in the belly; unusual weight change; or fatigue or loss of stamina. One or more of these tests may also be ordered when a person has been or may have been exposed to a hepatitis virus; has a family history of liver disease; has excessive alcohol intake; or is taking a drug that can cause liver damage.

Many patients with early or mild to moderate liver disease may have few if any symptoms. Liver disease may be first detected through routine blood testing that is performed as part of a physical.

This liver test detects abnormal levels of bilirubin and urobilinogen in urine, raised levels can indicate liver disease.

This test is suitable for you to do at home and can indicate liver disease. This test is simple to use and takes only 60 seconds.

This test has proven 98% accurate in laboratory testing.

This test is intended as an initial indication of elevated chemical markers and not conclusive of specific diagnosis. Further testing and consultation with a GP is necessary to confirm the presence of a specific disease or health condition.

there are two different tests of bilirubin often used together (especially if a person has jaundice): total bilirubin measures all the bilirubin in the blood; direct bilirubin measures a form that is conjugated (combined with another compound) in the liver.

Other tests such as liver biopsy, ultrasound scan, other types of scan, etc, may be needed to clarify the cause of a liver disorder, and/or to monitor its progress.

Bilirubin
The protein bilirubin is the waste product formed when red blood cells die and haemoglobin is broken down. In healthy individuals, bilirubin is metabolized by liver. An above normal level of bilirubin in the urine is indicative of liver disease. If your test results indicate ‘abnormal’ (mild, moderate, or severe), please seek the advice of your doctor.

 

Urobilinogen
The protein urobilinogen is formed in the intestines by bacterial action from the protein bilirubin. This is then absorbed and passed to the liver and urine. An above normal level of urobilinogen in the urine is indicative of liver disease. If your test results indicate ‘abnormal’ (mild, moderate, or severe), please seek the advice of your doctor
