In this video, we're going to talk about cirrhosis and the early detection of silent liver cirrhosis. 

What is cirrhosis?
Cirrhosis is scar tissue of the liver. 

Categories of cirrhosis: 

1. Compensated Cirrhosis – Where the body is compensating, there are no symptoms.
2. Decompensated Cirrhosis – This is where you start experiencing all of the symptoms. 

Symptoms of cirrhosis:  

• Spider Angioma – Red web-like veins 
• Xanthomas – Small yellow cholesterol spots, sometimes around the eyelids
• Jaundice – The whites of the eyes and the skin become yellow
• Thin Skin – You can't make collagen anymore 
• Ascites – A fluid-filled sac around the mid-section
• Gynecomastia – Breast tissue 
• Clubbed fingernails
• Edema in the lower leg 
• Red Palms
• Confusion 
• Bruising 
• Itchy skin 
• Cognitive issues 

What causes cirrhosis?
Cirrhosis of the liver starts with insulin resistance from:

 • Alcohol
 • High carb diets
 • Junk food
 • Sugar
 • Frequent eating
 • Drugs (legal or illegal) 
 • Viruses

Insulin resistance creates a lot of inflammation, which will also make insulin resistance worse. This situation may lead to a fatty liver, which can then lead to scar tissue in the liver that causes you to lose liver function, which is cirrhosis. 

Insulin resistance is also associated with:

 • Diabetes
 • Metabolic syndrome
 • Obesity

If you have symptoms of cirrhosis, you may want to start by fixing the insulin resistance.
