Why is fatty liver dangerous?

Fatty liver, now scientifically known as MASLD, has become a serious global problem. It's especially dangerous because it doesn't show any significant symptoms initially, but if left unattended, it can progress to life-threatening conditions like liver cirrhosis or liver cancer.

It's considered dangerous because the condition damages liver cells and can gradually lead to complete failure. The most worrying thing is that by the time patients begin to feel discomfort, significant liver damage has already occurred.

3 main habits that damage the liver

  • Eating too much sugar, refined flour, cold drinks, and packaged (processed) foods can accelerate the accumulation of fat in the liver. Instead, it's beneficial to eat green vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and fish.
  • Sitting for hours prevents the liver from digesting fat. Getting at least 150 minutes of physical activity a week, or walking daily, is essential for the liver.
  • Problems like obesity, diabetes and high cholesterol increase the risk of fatty liver many times.

Recognize the early signs

Since it is called a silent disease, it is important to look out for these symptoms:

  • Constant feeling of fatigue
  • Mild pain or heaviness in the upper right part of the abdomen
  • Elevated liver enzymes on medical checkup

Can fatty liver be reversed?

Although fatty liver is considered harmful, the good news is that it can be completely cured in the early stages. Yes, adopting certain habits can reverse fatty liver, which can also reduce  the risk of cancer .

  • Losing just 5 to 10 percent of your total weight significantly reduces the fat accumulated in the liver.
  • Studies suggest that the antioxidant properties of unsweetened coffee may help protect the liver.
  • If you are in a high risk group, then definitely consult a doctor from time to time.
