Why I’m Tracking My Lactulose Portfolio
The short answer is that lactulose acts as a biological safety net for your brain, but the way it performs this task happens entirely inside your digestive tract. When a patient asks, "Why do I have to take so much lactulose?" they are usually looking for a liver solution. However, lactulose is prescribed because a severely stressed liver can no longer process systemic metabolic waste.
Did My Liver Change My Vision?
Within a few months, my vision changed so dramatically that I ended up in an expensive, deeply annoying optometrist spiral: three separate visits, three new prescriptions, three different pairs of glasses.
I thought I was aging.
I thought my eyes were just being dramatic.
I thought I had an eye problem.
Turns out, I may have been optimizing for the wrong organ.
Because advanced liver disease does not politely stay in the liver lane. It affects metabolism, inflammation, hormones, nutrition, fluid balance, blood vessels, and sometimes, apparently, your ability to see the world clearly.
