Extracts and Optifast
Hi all,
This might sound like very stupid question; however, I need to ask it.
I have been putting coconut extract in my shakes (about a tablespoon each shake) and one of the ingredients is alcohol.
When having 4 shakes a day, with a tablespoon of extract in each shake, that is using up a bottle of the small extract in about a day and a half.
Is this too much alcohol for my liver for the surgery? I don't want them to open me up and have to close me because my liver is still too fatty or damaged from the extract use. (I have a fatty liver to start with).
Thanks!
Tracey
