How does one flush the fat out of the liver? Would doing so release toxins into the body?

LDL goes back down to 2 digits
Ultrasounds are the initial go to test for checking on fatty liver. I had one last month. When the results suggested fatty liver, I was sent for an MRI -- which confirmed diffusely fatty liver. I'm now rethinking many of the dietary and supplement ideas espoused on this forum, as many are not practical for those with nafld or, even worse, NASH.You can get an ultrasound. NAFLD is a fairly serious condition, and one can probably find a physician who will care enough to actually visualize the liver.

Mainly, I'm referring to haidut's and others admonitions to address liver illness before concerning yourself with going full Peat. Specifically, I'm reconsidering whether -- with a compromised, underfunctioning fatty liver -- I should be using niacinamide, high fructose or TyroMax. Thoughts?Which ones are not appropriate and why do you say that
Here's part of what I read from haidut that struck me w/regard to my liver and how to proceed: "Considering the Barnes book "Hypoglycemia: It's not your brain, it's your liver", which I read, it seems that restoring optimal liver function is also a key to improving metabolism. Yes, thyroid function is important too, but I think Peat's recommendation on supplementing thyroid even in the presence of normal thyroid labs may cause issues for a number of people... I they take it, they develop teeth issues, skin issues, anxiety or some other unpleasant symptoms. If they don't take it, their digestion slows down to a crawl or they start getting hypothyroid symptoms like brain fog or muscle issues, etc.
So, if the stats are true and the evidence I have seen is legit, then eating according to the peat guidelines is a great strategy AFTER metabolism is fixed. But if 80% of people over 30 are having liver issues or some other problems with metabolism, then the diet will be certainly supportive, but likely not "curative". And for some people with particularly bad liver problems the situation may end up getting worse in a way due to even more fatty liver issues or higher ammonia levels."
I want add and I have said before on this forum I have had diagnosed fatty liver by ultrasound and elevated liver enzymes and have tried most everything and taking vitamin E succinate 800 iu a day lowered my liver enzymes to normal in 4 weeks.
