Causes and treatment of fatty liver

First of all: fatty liver refers to the pathological changes caused by excessive accumulation of fat in liver cells due to various reasons. Fatty liver disease is a serious threat to the health of Chinese people, becoming the second largest liver disease after viral hepatitis.

Secondly, fatty liver is a common clinical phenomenon rather than an independent disease. Its clinical manifestations are mild, asymptomatic and severe. Generally speaking, fatty liver is a reversible disease, early diagnosis and timely treatment can often return to normal.

Finally: the degree of fat accumulation in liver is directly proportional to body weight. 30% ～ 50% of obesity patients were complicated with fatty liver, and 61% ～ 94% of severe obesity patients were complicated with fatty liver. When the body weight of obese people is controlled, the fat infiltration also decreases or disappears.
