Fatty liver disease, also known as hepatic steatosis, is a condition where excess fat builds up in the liver. It can lead to inflammation, liver damage, and more severe liver conditions if left untreated. At Narayana Health, our expert team, led by Dr. Sanjay Kumar Yadav, offers comprehensive care and personalized treatment plans to manage and reverse fatty liver disease effectively.
Fatty liver disease is categorized into two main types:
NAFLD occurs when fat builds up in the liver without the influence of alcohol. It’s often associated with obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, and metabolic syndrome.
AFLD is caused by excessive alcohol consumption, leading to fat accumulation in the liver. It can progress to more severe liver damage if alcohol intake continues.
