[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2651016, member: 506169"] Hi [USER=471737]@Nikki365[/USER] For many of us Type 2 diabetics, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease come along just before or alongside T2 Diabetes and is corrected by a Low Carb way of eating just the same as for our T2 Diabetes. Do you know which specific foods do you need to avoid? I was under the impression that for high ferritin you mainly have to avoid red meat and shellfish, but obviously lots of food contains iron (green leafy veg for example). We don't (and can't) diagnose or prescribe in this forum however a quick search reveals: According to the medical sources I have seen online, High Serum Ferritin is usually a symptom of disease rather than an overload of iron in the diet. Conditions which raise Serum Ferritin include: Obesity, fatty liver, alcoholic liver disease, hepatitis B or C, overactive thyroid, rheumatoid arthritis [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3093720/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/ferritin-blood-test[/URL] Depending upon the cause of the High Serum Ferritin, it may be worthwhile to just address that rather than treating the High Serum Ferritin through diet: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/news/2015/dec/low-carb-diet-can-improve-liver-function-in-patients-with-fatty-liver-disease,-study-finds-94429859.html[/URL] I hope this helps.
