Fatty liver disease, or hepatic steatosis, is a condition where excess fat accumulates in the liver. This can be classified into two types: alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD), resulting from excessive alcohol consumption, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is often linked to obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, and other metabolic conditions. While the early stages of fatty liver disease are usually asymptomatic, it can progress to more severe forms such as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which can lead to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver failure if left untreated.
Managing fatty liver disease primarily involves addressing its root causes through lifestyle modifications. Key strategies include adopting a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins while limiting sugar, refined carbs, and unhealthy fats. Regular physical activity and gradual weight loss can significantly reduce liver fat. Additionally, for those with AFLD, abstaining from alcohol is crucial. Early diagnosis and proactive management are essential to prevent the disease's progression and improve overall liver health.
