Fatty liver disease is becoming increasingly common due to sedentary lifestyles, poor dietary habits, and metabolic disorders. It is a condition where excess fat accumulates in the liver, leading to inflammation, scarring, and even liver failure if left untreated.

Fatty liver disease, also known as hepatic steatosis, occurs when more than 5-10% of the liver’s weight is made up of fat. This condition can be classified into two types:
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) – This occurs in people who do not consume excessive alcohol but develop fat deposits in their liver due to metabolic issues like obesity, diabetes, or high cholesterol.
Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (AFLD) – This is caused by excessive alcohol consumption, leading to fat accumulation, inflammation, and possible liver cirrhosis.
