Introduction
Fatty liver disease is no longer rare—it’s becoming alarmingly common, even among people who don’t drink alcohol. Often symptomless in early stages, this condition quietly damages the liver and can progress to serious complications if ignored.
The good news? Fatty liver disease is largely reversible with timely lifestyle changes.
What Is Fatty Liver Disease?
Fatty liver disease occurs when excess fat builds up in liver cells. There are two main types:
- Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
- Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
NAFLD is now one of the most common liver disorders worldwide.
Early Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore
Many people have no symptoms at first, but warning signs may include:
- Constant fatigue
- Mild pain or discomfort in the upper right abdomen
- Unexplained weight gain

These signs are often overlooked.
Main Causes of Fatty Liver
- Excess sugar and refined carbohydrates
- Insulin resistance
- Obesity and belly fat
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Poor gut health
- High triglycerides
Alcohol is not the only cause—diet plays a major role.

Early intervention is critical.
