A member asked:
I recently had labs drawn that showed elevated lft's. i also had a recent us done which has been interpreted as "compatible with fatty infiltration or hepatocellular disease". can this be reversed with weight loss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is likely that the lesion will reverse with weight loss. Even if weight loss keeps the disease from getting worse, it will be a win. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Wish you good health!
