Ep. 64: The True Cause of Fatty Liver (NAFLD Part 2)

In this episode we discuss: Why fructose doesn’t cause leptin resistance How our livers produce fat from fructose or dietary fat How a failure of energy production (mitochondrial respiration) causes NAFLD  Why increases in uncoupling, autophagy, mitophagy, and other stress pathways is often a sign of dysfunction and stress   Sign up for the Free Energy Balance Mini-Course here: https://jayfeldmanwellness.com/energy   Click here to check out the show notes: https://jayfeldmanwellness.com/ep-64-the-true-cause-of-fatty-liver-nafld-part-2/    Timestamps: 4:54 – why fructose doesn’t cause leptin resistance  11:56 – the physiology of triglyceride (fat) synthesis in the liver 28:03 – the role of inhibited, inefficient mitochondrial respiration in triglyceride synthesis in the liver 46:06 – the role of inhibited, inefficient mitochondrial respiration and stress pathways in NAFLD
