Excessive alcohol consumption surely causes a great amount of damage to your Liver but does not mean that non-alcoholics are immune to any Liver diseases.

There are various other factors that cause equal damage to your Liver. Let us understand what is Junk (Fast) Food And Its Effects on Liver Functions.

So, first things first, What is Junk Food actually?

Junk Food: Junk Food does not necessarily mean Fast Food as is believed by most people. Certain types of Fast Food can be considered Junk Food but the two terms cannot be used synonymously.

Junk Food is considered unhealthy because it contains a large number of calories that come from either sugar or Fat. The term HFSS food or High in Fat, Salt, and Sugar food can be used in place of Junk food.

EFFECTS OF JUNK FOOD ON LIVER FUNCTION AND OTHER DISEASES

• When sugar and fats are consumed in large amounts through junk food, that excess consumption overloads the Liver. This in turn causes a large accumulation of fats within the liver which can result in high cholesterol levels and liver diseases like NAFLD (Non-alcoholic fatty liver), Liver Cirrhosis, and other types of liver diseases.  
• Junk food also creates an increased risk of Obesity, Cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, as well as some forms of cancer.
• The Institute Of Health Metrics and Evaluation, which is based in Seattle has conducted a study where a shocking discovery is made. They have found that eating Junk food or unhealthy food is actually increasing the mortality rate at a much faster rate than tobacco consumption. 
• Due to the over intake of Junk Food, Proteins will not be digested into the body. This would in turn cause cells do not to have access to the amino acids that are produced from the proper Digestion of proteins. These amino acids help in creating chemical messengers or neurotransmitters which induce biochemical reactions in the body.
• The Liver, among other things, also acts as a filter for many harmful substances and toxins. Junk Food could compromise this filter, which would lead to unwanted accumulation of harmful toxins inside the body, which starts affecting the other organs of the human body.
