If you think you are safe from liver damage just because you aren't a heavy drinker, look at the Yellow Liver on the left.

That is Fatty Liver (Steatosis). In the US, it’s not always caused by tequila; it’s often caused by the Standard American Diet (High Fructose Corn Syrup + Processed Carbs).

The "Point of No Return" Breakdown:

🟡 Fatty Liver (The Warning Shot):

The Look: Enlarged, yellow, and "greasy".

The Symptoms: Usually NONE. You might feel a little "fullness" in your right side, but mostly, it’s silent.

The Good News: It is REVERSIBLE. If you cut the sugar and lose weight, your liver can heal.

🟤 Cirrhosis (The End Game):

The Look: Shrunken, hard, and covered in scar tissue (nodules).

The Reality: This is IRREVERSIBLE scarring. Once you cross this line, the liver structure is destroyed, leading to jaundice and failure.

🇺🇸 The "Belly" Check:
If you have "Central Obesity" (a firm, round belly), you are at higher risk for Fatty Liver.

Ask your P*P for a Liver Function Test (ALT/AST) at your next physical. Don't wait until your skin turns yellow.

Did you know liver disease could happen without alcohol? 👇

💜 February is Rare Disease Month! 💜

Epilepsy itself is common, but there are rare forms and rare epilepsy syndromes that affect fewer people.

The month of February is a reminder to raise awareness for those living with rarer conditions, and to celebrate everyone in our epilepsy community.

Question for the group: Do you or someone you know live with a rare form of epilepsy? How do you share your experience or raise awareness for it?
