Liver disease

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the term for a range of conditions caused by a build-up of fat in the liver. It's usually seen in people who are overweight or obese. Early-stage NAFLD does not usually cause any harm, but it can lead to serious liver damage, including cirrhosis if it gets worse.

When extra fat accumulates in the liver, this takes place. The liver may be harmed by the extra fat, which can also result in cirrhosis and the growth of scar tissue. However, liver failure can develop as a result of fatty liver disease, which usually has no symptoms. Losing weight, becoming active, and cutting off alcohol are the only ways to treat or manage the disease. An increased risk of serious health issues including diabetes, high blood pressure, and kidney disease is also linked to having high levels of fat in your liver.
