Summary
Details

Welcome to your guide on Fatty Liver Disease and the Fatty Liver Disease Diet! Let's face it, nobody wants a fatty liver. It sounds like something you'd find in a fast food joint, not in your own body. But unfortunately, fatty liver disease is becoming more and more common. The good news is that you can take steps to prevent and even reverse it.

First, let's talk about what exactly fatty liver disease is. Essentially, it's when fat builds up in your liver cells, which can lead to inflammation and damage. There are two types of fatty liver disease: nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD). As one might infer, AFLD results from chronic alcohol consumption, whereas NAFLD is unrelated to alcohol intake.

Did you know that fatty liver disease is a condition that currently affects almost a third of the US population? The prevalence of the disease, according to UCLA Health, ranges from 10 to 46%. The primary cause is the accumulation of surplus fat within the liver, attributed to various factors including overindulgence in alcohol, poor dietary habits, and a lack of physical activity.

If not managed, fatty liver disease can lead to significant harm to the liver, potentially resulting in conditions like liver fibrosis or scarring, and cirrhosis, which may be life-threatening.

As of this writing, there are no FDA-approved medications for the direct treatment of fatty liver disease. Fortunately, and if diagnosed early, this condition is easily reversible by making changes in the patient's diet and lifestyle.

That's where this guide can help. It's written for people who were diagnosed with fatty liver disease and are hoping to eat healthier. Before starting with the diet, make sure that you consult with your doctor first, so you will be guided accordingly.
