Drug-Free Plan Reverses Fatty Liver: Weight Loss, Diet, Exercise Key
- •Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), now called MASLD, affects nearly 30% globally, rising rapidly in India due to lifestyle factors.
- •Weight reduction is crucial; even 3-5% loss significantly reduces liver fat, with 7-10% potentially reversing early fibrosis.
- •The Mediterranean diet, rich in healthy fats, vegetables, and whole grains, is highly effective for liver health.
- •Regular exercise (150 minutes moderate intensity weekly) improves insulin sensitivity and reduces liver fat, even without significant weight loss.
- •Emerging therapies include digital tools, improved sleep, stress management, and bariatric surgery for severe obesity; supplements require medical guidance.
Why It Matters: MASLD is largely reversible without medication through lifestyle changes like weight loss, diet, and exercise.
