I've been having foamy stools off and on for about a month, and my stomach seems to bloat all the time whether I eat or not. I'm really curious about what's causing this. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

View allI'm concerned about my stage 2 non-alcoholic fatty liver. I've been reading about Liv 52 tablets by Himalaya and was wondering if they're effective for this condition. Also, how many should I be taking each day, and is it better to have them on an empty stomach or after meals?
Liv 52 might help support liver health, but it should not be relied upon as the sole treatment for Stage 2 NAFLD. Focus on lifestyle changes, and consult your doctor to develop a comprehensive treatment plan. If you decide to take Liv 52, follow the recommended dosage of 2 tablets twice daily after meals, but only after getting your doctor's approval

I'm a bit worried and curious if there's any connection between not masturbating for a while and having stomach issues like acid reflux. I've been experiencing acid reflux and thought maybe it's linked to this. Is there any harm in masturbation related to this, or is it okay if I start again since it's been tough to resist?
There is no direct link between masturbation and acid reflux. Masturbation is a normal activity and, in general, doesnt cause digestive issues like acid reflux. If you're experiencing acid reflux, it may be related to diet, stress, or other factors. If you feel the urge, its fine to engage in the activity in moderation, but focusing on managing your reflux through lifestyle changes and medical advice may help more with your symptoms.
