The therapist called the diseases associated with bruises under the eyes

Bruises under the eyes may indicate abnormalities of the liver and cardiovascular system. Alexander Umnov, a lecturer at the Department of Surgery at the Medical Faculty of the State University of Education, told about this on Wednesday, April 30.

According to the surgeon, bruises under the eyes are most often the result of traumatic stress caused by fractures of the base of the skull, upper jaw and bones of the eye socket. However, they may also indicate hidden problems such as liver and cardiovascular system disorders.

"Theoretically, if the permeability of the vascular bed is impaired in liver diseases, diapidous bleeding can occur, in which blood elements leak through the vascular wall in different places. In such diseases, there is no production of proteins that support oncotic pressure, which prevents bleeding," the specialist said in a conversation with Lenta.Ru .

On April 29, Associate Professor of the Department of Therapy at the State University of Education Irina Volgina told Izvestia that sugary soda poses the greatest danger to health. Such drinks contain artificial colors and flavor enhancers that can cause allergic reactions and have toxic effects on the liver.

In turn, Pravda.Ru clarified which foods are harmful to the liver. These include: sugary and fried foods, salty foods, fast food, high-fat and refined fats, as well as refined carbohydrates.

Foods to support and repair the liver include turmeric, coffee, oatmeal, green tea, garlic, blueberries, grapes, oranges, fatty fish, legumes, olive oil, broccoli and beetroot.
