10 What major dietary factor contributes to fatty liver disease by damaging mitochondria and impairing fat metabolism?

• Too much protein and low fat intake
• Excess linoleic acid (LA) and low choline
  

  Too much linoleic acid combined with too little choline disrupts fat metabolism, promoting harmful liver fat buildup. Learn more.

• High intake of whole-food animal fats
• Excess vitamin K from supplements

11 How do deep-rooted flowers like borage and clover help your garden?

• They deplete soil nutrients and weaken vegetables
• They improve soil structure and pull up buried nutrients
  

  Deep-rooted flowers like borage and clover enhance soil structure and bring buried nutrients to the surface, supporting healthier vegetables. Learn more.

• They prevent beneficial insects from thriving
• They focus only on attracting pollinators without soil benefits.
