Main causes of fatty liver
Overweight and obesity: Excess fat in the body affects the functioning of the liver and causes fat to accumulate there. Visceral fat in particular plays a major role in this.
Diabetes (Type 2 Diabetes): Irregular blood sugar levels affect the liver’s ability to absorb fat.
High cholesterol: Increased triglyceride levels in the blood are the main cause of fatty liver.
Unhealthy diet: Continuous consumption of sugary drinks, flour, fried and fried foods in oil, and processed foods.
Lack of exercise: A lifestyle with little physical activity does not help burn calories and it accumulates in the liver as fat.
Other metabolic diseases: People with hormone-related conditions such as hypothyroidism and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) are also more likely to develop fatty liver.
Alcohol: Excessive alcohol consumption damages liver cells and causes fat to accumulate.
Things to do to reduce fatty liver:
Change your diet: Include plenty of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Reduce sweets and oils as much as possible.
Exercise: Get at least 30-40 minutes of brisk walking or exercise every day.
Weight management: Losing weight gradually can help improve liver health.
Avoid alcohol: Quit drinking alcohol completely.
