A patient in China ate so much fatty food that he reportedly ended up with oily, yellow liquid in his blood.

It’s claimed that the man, who is in his 40s and called Liu, consumed an extremely oil-rich diet during recent holidays.

He visited hospital in Yichang, Hubei Province, after suffering crippling stomach pains, according to local media.

Doctors reportedly discovered that his triglyceride levels were several times higher than normal.

And it’s alleged that, when they conducted a blood test, medics were shocked to see an oily yellow substance floating to the top of the test tube.

Liu was reportedly diagnosed with pancreatitis, which was believed to have been brought on by his high-fat, high-protein diet.

Experts at Yichang People’s Hospital told local media he was just one of an increasing number of patients diagnosed with acute pancreatitis to have been treated in recent years.

Most of whom, it’s reported, had the disease because of an over-consumption of alcohol and overly fatty foods.

Liu’s blood test was released by the hospital and published as a warning to other citizens, it’s claimed.
