Fatty liver: There are many possible cause of fatty liver. If you do not have diabetes, you could still have hyperlipidemia of various types. You need a blood lipid check, which I am sure your doctor has done. A blood test for hypothyroidism is quick, and treatment is simple if yo have it

Carbs. Change it.: The easiest way to revert fatty liver is by completely stopping high carb foods (grains, lentils, potatoes based items). Also avoid milk protein since it causes insulin resistance. Low carb food items such as flesh foods, eggs, non starchy vegetables, avocados, saturated fat (butter, ghee, coconut oil), olive oil are very effective.
