Yes, Low carb diet: Can be dangerous. Fatty liver disease is caused by excess simple carbs, esp. high fructose corn syrup, other sugars and grains, as well as trans fats in fried foods. Avoid sugars/starches; emphasize veggies and quality proteins. Weight loss, exercise, fish or flax oil, Vit D3 and natural E with mixed tocopherols help.

Lifestyle helps: Dr. Baker has given you good advice. You need to avoid more than a very little bit of alcohol if any at all. I trust that Wilson's disease and hepatitis C have been ruled out and that you are otherwise healthy. This is largely genetic but you can modify your risk by diet as recommended, and staying trim and physically fit. Ask your physician about meds -- a few simple vitamin-like Rx's exist.
